    @Banno Nonsense. Read my post above to benkei.
    You think 180 was referncing black people in his post.
    And if I can verify suspect behaviour amongst black culture,doesn't mean I can publicly rant on it.
    Double standards mate.

    Well, no, what I said was accurate - you can see it in the stuff you linked to.

    Your "argument" is that if someone had said something else, that would have been racists. That's not an argument.

    I'm not your mate.

    @Banno Nope. What you said is apologetics. It's clear.
    And damn right I'm not your mate. Was a language game palooka

    No.

    Racism is holding the belief that you’re morally or mentally superior based on ethnicity (often attributed - falsely - to physical appearances esp. skin-tone and bone structure).

    Again, do you understand the difference between racism and prejudice as argued by 180 Proof? Explain it to me and then explain to me why that differentiation is wrong according to you.

    The link you cited does not support your allegations.

    Provide some evidence or retract.

    @Benkei Don't try to patronise me.
    Is it ok for a white minority to use the word black as a pejorative? And then say its a prejudice?

    You have the opportunity to provide evidence in support of your accusing a member of racism. You ought do so.

    That's not an appeal to authority. Its an appeal to you to back up your accusation.

    @Banno I have done.
    You are a bore. And a virtue signaller. A pedantic ideologue.

    I don't intend to patronise you. I believe that if you want to argue a case you need argumentation. So far, all you've done is point at something and said "that's racist". What you believe is obvious, quite clearly isn't, since at least two posters don't interpret it the same. So you need to explain it better.

    I'm offering you a way to clarify some things where I suspect the difference in interpretation comes from, instead you complain about having to explain your position. If you can't argue your case then we can dismiss your position as irrational or irrelevant because it's not supported.
