The comment of the Venn diagram was very apt.

It's cool that you don't know what you're talking about, that's fine, but don't come in here and pretend like you do while shifting the focus and avoiding explanation when ever someone makes a simple and direct criticism of your statements. If you don't understand your own position, you can't expect others to.

Can we just agree, you said racism and racial prejudice are different, they aren't. It's super simple. If you can't understand it, then don't bother reading academic papers, those won't be for you.

I'm always really pleased when someone who doesn't understand simple concepts claims to not care enough to explain themselves or that others wouldn't understand. It's a strong indicator that they have a very low level grasp of their position and have run out of ways to cover that fact.

After all:

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.
