    “what you said was kinda racist”

    “How dare you, I’m not a racist!”

    The unacknowledged shift from the adjective form “racist” to the noun form “racist” is the best indicator that someone doesn’t really get what racism actually is in real life.

    As an example of why that’s wrong, I can do something stupid without being a stupid.

      Many people need to accept that they are not perfect, and be open to learning. Instead, many people lash out. Gotta protect their ego.
