I'd say the majority of people in the USA are completely ignorant about what racism is. People literally call everything racist.
Racism is believing one race is better or worse than another race, disliking or hating people for no other reason than the way they look.
Talking about racial stereotypes or norms isn't "racism". Saying white men cannot dance, blacks are good at sports, Asians are good at school". These are stereotypes. You can believe a stereotype or not, you can joke about stereotypes. That doesn't make you a racist. You can have dating/mating preferences. You can be attracted to and choose to date/marry only within your own racial group... or you can date/marry and have interracial relationships and kids and not care. Choosing one or the other doesn't make you "racists".
Not wanting to have your culture diluted or changed or balkanized doesn't make you racist. If you want immigration at low levels and if you want immigrants accepted be ones to want to join and adopt the host countries culture and not want immigrants that want to import the culture of the foreign land to compete with the hosts countries culture that doesn't make you racist. It just means you want your home countries traditions and cultures to not be interfered with.
Unless you hate people just because they were born and born of a race you feel is beneath you then you are not a racist.
It is totally non racist and rational to feel, for example, I like India and I like India's people and culture and I'd like to visit India... but I do not like it if Indians are moving to your country and dressing like they are in India and opening Indian Temples in your country and to prefer to only bring in Indians that want to adopt your home culture.
If you hate Indians just because they are Indian and if you feel all Indians suck and that they are all beneath you... that is racist.
The line between real/true racism and just talking about racial differences in any way has been blurred to insane levels with people today.
Racism means literally: racial discrimination. And the right does it frequently.

It's urban, not black. Urban areas strongly lean Democrat. Urban areas have a much higher concentration of blacks, but not necessarily a majority.
Much of the debate is about mail in ballots, which are normally limited. But because of the virus, they were heavily used in this election. The heavy use of mail-in ballots affected the more urban areas much more than other places.
This isn't about blacks so much as it is about a broader demographic that leans Democrat. In absolute numbers that affected the results of the election, it probably affected more whites than blacks, but these were Democrat leaning whites.
I'm not going to make a judgment here about whether there was or was not fraud. But IF there was fraud, it would be a lot easier to target these densely populated areas where it could be more easily hidden. If I was going to do fraud that's exactly what I would do. I would not try to hide large numbers of votes in low density areas. It would stand out too much.

Based on no particular evidence, Trump demanded to throw out votes in the majority Black cities of Detroit, Philadelphia, and Atlanta. You can decide if that's racist, but he came at my City and my co-workers and my friends when he did that. He was wrong and all the Courts said so.
You can probably assert that while not everyone who questioned the election is racist, every racist questioned the election. Make of that what you will.
Racist is just something liberals throw out when you don't agree with them.

I'm guessing that you call an inconvenient truth a conspiracy just like the Democrats also please note that anything that doesn't advantage the Democrats is racist, if Democrats can be believed. National guard to protect federal buildings racist and thyranic but national guard to protect the federal buildings they are in is neccessary. Condemning riots during the summer, racist, condemning the riots in the buildings they work in it's okay to condemn. Police protecting cities from being burned, racist and brutality, police protecting them, brave and honorable. See how that works?

Questioning the election is more ignorant and intentionally disruptive, than racist. About sixty cases regarding the election have gone to court, including the supreme court. Trump only won one case. It's abundantly clear that Biden won a fair election. Continuing to question the election, despite the almost complete lack of proof of any wide spread irregularities, actually harms America, and it decreases trust in the electoral system, which is so important in a democratic, free republic.

Racist?
It's a lot of things but how is it racist? I am starting to think people use the word racist so casually these days it's become a fucking joke. No one takes it seriously now.
Use the word very very carefully in appropriate situations. We don't want actual racism to be ignored because some fools overuse the word "racist" on every occasion
Is calling a district black racist? Yes. Is saying people of a certain ethnicity are going to vote based off their ethnicity racist? yes. Were there enough voters to make the claim that a district would be swayed by racism? No. Registered living voters are independent of ethnicity, age, gender, or any other dynamic. The confirmed dead voters and unregistered voters did come from certain districts, but skin color had nothing to do with it. The dead voters were more often of European descent.
I’ve read only a handful of “dead voters” voted. Also calling a community predominantly black is statistical science. So stop hedging and answer the fucken question ANON.

No hedging at all, you simply misunderstand. Calling neighborhoods black or saying people are democrats because of their skin color is racist, period. There where people of every variety that voted Trump, statistically that showed an increase in every demographic accept those of European descent where Trump loss ground with males. Because of this regardless of demographics the percentage of biden voters was not only inconsistent with the rest of the country, but the demographics you try to isolate to skin color. There is no such thing as a black vote, anyone who believes in such a thing is racist.

We hear from rural white voters "Everyone I know voted for Trump", and complaining about the votes from the cities. Here in Seattle everyone I know voted for Biden. Pretty much everyone I know anywhere voted for Biden.
That’s probably the issue. Rural idiots are thinking “everyone I know voted Trump so it’s gotta be fraud.”

Trump thought he succeeded in stealing the election because he failed to realize that his effort to slow down the US Postal Service fell short. Yeah, he slowed things down but not enough, mainly because we caught onto his evil scheme early on. Sux to be Trump! :) Now he goes down in history as a traitor and the WORST President in history. Now it's time to put him in jail.
In your little mind maybe but in reality definitely not a traitor and if honest one of the best Presidents in history and won't fairly go to jail. But keep fantasizing.
I didn't imagine what he did so none of the above. What he promised during his campaign he tried to fulfill. He did what he thought was right for America even if it wasn't best for him politically, he spoke his mind not what he thought people wanted to hear. A President who was open and honest is a rarity. If he was a typical politician he would have had a second term but he had principles and integrity and decided to do what was right for everyday Americans instead of pandering to special interests.

Only to far left extremists who attempt to use race to silence dissent and criticism. No one should be intimidated into not raising concerns about potential electoral fraud. There are processes for that.

I think it shows people are butthurt and can't get over it. It's petty and embarrassing. They need to get over it. In 4 years there is another election...
Racism in today's society just means: "I don't agree with it." It completely lost all the meaning it used to have. Based on how you framed the question, I'd assume you are racist.

@AliciaPastee Any cactus growing nearby? Why not do us all a favor and experiment with one. Sexually. And while at the hospital, do us a favor and visit the psyche ward. Thanks :D
From what I hear is that only Americans were permitted to vote. That's extremely racist when we consider that it's about the 'world leader' :D

Not in and of itself, but racism can fuel conspiracy theories. Likewise, attempts at voter suppression or disregarding votes of minorities can also take place because of racism.

I dunno.. I guess brushing your teeth will be one day racist too.
So what? Even if true, having doubts about the outcome of an election, especially one that was so chaotic and bitterly contested, is hardly something that should be discouraged. Everything in life should be questioned, but especially anything that touches on or relates to politics. It's just the sensible, prudent thing to do.
@__inkRat that's what i always thought. but it's starting in my country too... we had BLM protests here recently... we don't even have black discrimination and a history of black slavery... what the fuck? people spend too much time on instagram and twitter.
the vast majority of black folks vote for democrats. that's not racist. that's just a fact. so that means black districts are more likely to have caused a win for democrats... and obviously a republican would contest those districts with democrat majority. cause why would you "contest" an area where your party has already won? of course he contested "democrat majority" districts, which by the fact i just mentioned are more likely to be marjority black. implying racism there is a pretty far fetched comspiracy theory. It's just about the votes.
You know the majority of people on prisons is black even though blacks are a minority in society. Is that racist? No. It's just the numbers. Don't read racism into everything.
@OddBeMe nope. you're dead wrong. and you just prove that you're a sjw leftist moron. black people do more crimes. that's a fact. it has to do with social spheres and habitual differences between the ethnicities, NOT with racism. educate yourself.
It’s either blacks are more criminal by nature, or the justice system targets them.

The Republicans would rather blacks didn't get to vote at all. And that's not just a theory because they actively work to suppress the black vote, outside of just plain lying about election fraud.

No, it’s not racist, it’s questioning the biased nature of the election officials in those states, counties and wards, the majority of whom are white and how secure the voting process is be it by paper ballot or machine tabulation.
call me what you want... you don't know me. But I am quite curious why is all racist in the eyes of some people... I mean... Pick morgan freemam one of the best actors you can see. would you rater say... Morgan freeman is one of the best actors I have see, or Morgan freeman is one of the best black actors I have see? I cannot undertand this American obsession with color, gender etc... I ridiculous. At the end instead of integrate everione at the same level, you finish generating apparteids, Its like super crazy in my eyes. just treat everione the same abd stop pushing this ideology of apparteid its being pushed since 2012.

Why do some americans always have to see racism everywhere and nitpick. Don't look for racism when there is none!
I'm sorry I read that incorrectly. My apologies. I'll vote now.
I don't think the question by itself is racist as minorities do tend to vote left whether that be in America or not. people should not be afraid to question things to avoid being called racists. Truth knows no color.
But if simply to assume they're incorrect or fraudulent just because the voters are black would be.
So the question by itself is no but the derived assumptions and answers can be.
people should be allowed to challenge black, white, yellow and green voters. Not based on skin color but everyone has the right to challenge data and ideologies. Sensorship, in general, is injust, oppressive and can only lead to worst results by preventing learning or the truth. History teaches that very clearly.
Now if repeatedly one person or a group continues to deny, question, and reject the choices of another group simply because of their skin color. Than yes that can form a ground of racism. Again it can be but also it might not be. As assumptions are dangerous and trying to derive an intention as evidence of an argument can easily be only a sign of ignorance. You can't shut people up just because they ask questions. As questioning by itself is not wrong but rejecting the results and answers ONLY based on skin color is definitely wrong. But that's unless clearly declared or stated is very difficult to prove.
And again you have the right to question other people freely and so do they.

Racism has nothing to do with race anymore. Racism now means you are not hard left. Which is ironic because they are the most racist people around
Like the time a Republican said your not really black unless you vote for him. Or asking a black reporter if he was drug tested. Oh nope that was biden
When was that ever a GOP policy? The republicans were created to end slavery and the poll tax and literacy tests were in the southern states that were run by Dixiecrats.
Statistically, challenged districts are predominantly black. Not random, unlike an ANON poster.

That's the point of the accusation though: they're prominently black districts so *immediately* the tribal left seizes on that superficial trait and makes the political discourse about immutable characteristics rather than the substance of policy and procedure.
Questioning majority black districts is racial discrimination. The very definition of racism. So maybe talk to your right wing pals about not doing this shit.

It's the questioning of the result. It only causes problems..
No, not at all. Because you don't have the intellectual capacity to defend your positions or debate a policy, so you say "that's racist" to attempt to derail the debate. It's a very transparent tactic.
