You're right about the intent, but it still doesn't diminish what I said. Racism also goes a long way towards explaining the methods that Western media excuses to rationalize violence against the rest of the world (see: all the reporting about Israeli airstrikes in Iran or the anti-immigration protests in N. Ireland)
The sooner we call a spade a spade instead of arguing over specifics, the less people will die.
