    That’s very fair yes. But how can you tell those who are anti-religion for racist reasons from those who are for not?

      There are two hazards in our discussion:

      1. someone being called racist
      2. someone suffering from systemic racism

      I prioritize hazard 1 as having a lower consequence than hazard 2.

      In other words, I care much more about eradicating systemic racism than the hurt feelings of someone whose motives are misunderstood.
