I think I understand. So if I pushed back on the notion that my identity is a "malignant, parasitic-like condition to which 'white' people have a particular susceptibility" [1], by e.g. stating it is merely "okay", that would be racist? I guess I'll just have to roll over without a fight then, since even the mildest resistance against these smears has been defined as far-right and racist, and I wouldn't want to be either.

Besides, I'm sure it'll stop here. When they see we're not resisting, they'll tone down the rhetoric until we all get along. Because that's what has been happening so far - as we get closer to equality, the rhetoric is becoming milder and milder, right?
