I am not trying to control the definition of racism.
Clearly false. You are definitely projecting your illusion of what is racism all over the accurate definition of racism presented by Merriam-Webster, which you do for leftist ideology reasons and political gains.
That's what's so great about FAIR: they have
no political agenda, they clearly respect the accurate definition of racism, and they oppose
all of those forms of racism.
You leftists clearly support the egregious form of racism so-called "reverse-racism".
I am not trying to judge the world for Asians, nor am I attempting to judge any depiction of Asians as acceptable or unacceptable for the Asian race.
Again, false. You most certainly are judging what is acceptable and not acceptable to an entire race. That's not for you to do. Each individual decides what they like and don't like.
But likes and non-likes are irrelevant.
What's relevant here in this thread is what is racism, and the allegations about the Dr. Seuss books being racist, including the Asian drawings, are simply and obviously false
by definition.
My point is, you need to back up and realize these discussions are often not about you. That's step one,
Now you're simply projecting.
You would do well not to wipe your psychological projections on others, primarily because they belong to you and for you to deal with, and second because you make major errors in judging another.
Of course, clearly, what you really want me to do is agree with you, so, because I don't, you infer there's something wrong with me, with my thinking, and the like. That's rather narcissistic of you. Better would be for all leftists to take a good look in the mirror, and realize that their entire political perspective is all a transfer and displacement of unresolved family-of-origin issues onto the public political arena.
and you fail to realize that the voice and opinion of Asian people matters a hell of a lot more than your's.
And again you project big time.
You do not know of any "voice and opinion of Asian people" in this matter.
You simply delude that every Asian is all disturbed by the Dr. Seuss book that presents a drawing of an Asian person because that fits
your ideological mindset, which has nothing to do whatsoever with actual reality.
But there are no such groups. It's the damn BLM bully mob "cancel culture" that deludes these books are racist and has made threatening suggestions of such to various administrators, not some fantasized "Asian council" representing "the voice and opinion of all Asian people".
Reality remains, there are likely some Asians who don't "like" the drawings, some Asians who find them "amusing", some Asians who could care less. Nobody knows the numbers of these in each category. But since there's yet to be any real outrage by the Asian community at large presented in the media, this entire flap is much ado about nothing, and is merely, once again, the Marxist communist BLM bully mob "cancel culture" attempting to destabilize society for their political gains.
But the biggest reality that remains, relevant to this thread, is that these drawings are simply
not racist,
by definition.
Secondly, you need to learn why racism is wrong and how it impacts other people.
And again you project even bigger than before.
I'm the one who posted this thread about FAIR, an organization that's opposed to racism in
all its forms, so clearly I
already know how wrong racism is.
You, on the other hand, have clearly stated that you support the form of egregious racism so-called "reverse-racism".
So, obviously, the next time you think that racism against the majority race(s) in a society is okay, remember your own words: "you need to learn why racism is wrong and how it impacts other people" .. and stop advocating this egregious form of racism.
if you learn to do that, and realize how certain images are harmful to certain groups, then you learn to be more helpful.
Your own words, back in the mirror at you.
As Michael Jackson so wisely sang, perhaps you might "take a look in the mirror and make a change".
