    Well, that’s not true.

    Lots of words have changed definition fairly recently.

        You don’t think donations pour into anti-racism non-profit groups?

        Who do you think works to change these definitions and why don’t you think they’re funded?

        Do you think these things happen organically?

          What does anti racism have to do with anything?

          This supposed to be some kinda dogwhistle?

            Racism is one of the words that used to mean something different than what it means today.

            Racism used to mean believing races are superior or inferior to each other. Today, racism means “power + prejudice” or some variation.

            Try to keep up, man. We are talking about words changing definitions. ‘Founder’ was the example. I’m adding more, like ‘racism’

              Today, racism means “power + prejudice”

              no, that’s something some fringe group uses, it’s literally some micro fringe “SJW” and Alt-Right who push this shit
