    I’m Canadian and this is how I was raised too. Racism = Hitler, KKK, and neo-nazis. That’s why it’s bad.

    So if you’re going to call someone racist, don’t be surprised if they think you’re comparing them to Hitler or the KKK.

    And if you’re going to say that there’s different levels of racism and some are only as bad as stepping on someone’s toes, don’t be surprised if people don’t really care.

      Only as bad as stepping on people’s toes

      Well, only as bad as someone who cares whether or not they step on some people’s toes, and doesn’t notice/doesn’t care if they step on other people’s toes.
