Here we go again. Same ****, different day.
Do you have anything intelligent to contribute to the topic?
The definition of "racist" I grew up with is that racists have two characteristics. First, racists believe that their race is superior to all the other races. Second, racists dislike or even hate members of other races, regardless of the individual characteristics of those members.
Is that definition sufficient, or do you believe that racists have additional characteristics?
Would you say that Charles Murray is a racist?

“the negroes are less intelligent than other races.”
There may be a few black racists, but they are a small minority compared to the latent and often open racism of Trump's Republicans. And his white supremacist followers.
That is not the view of Charles Murray, Jared Taylor, and J. Philippe Rushton. That would imply that every Negro is less intelligent than every member of every other race. Charles Murray, Jared Taylor, and J. Philippe Rushton believe that average differences in intelligence exist between the races, and that they are caused primarily by genetic differences.
What you are defining is systemic racism. A white person my not be a racist, but still benefits from systemic racism. (White privilege)You can be "racist" without being "a racist", in the sense that while you may not consciously believe in racial superiority, your actions may still express subconscious racist assumptions.
Racism is an insidious force that affects us all. Whether we openly subscribe to the ideology or not, we are still complicit in it, and must work to undo the negative impacts of racism wherever possible.
That is a feeling of superiority which is the definition of a racist

Trump supporters often call me a race traitor because of my admiration for Jews and Orientals.

How can you say that whites benefit from white privilege when universities and employers, especially in the government, practice affirmative action?
How many have said that to you... ?

Affirmative action only exists as an attempt to offset racial disparities that already exist in higher education and in the job market. Without affirmative action, white people historically have always had an easier time finding jobs and getting into colleges.
