You're not reading what I'm saying. I certainly don't rule out white supremacy. It exists. It's just that it MIGHT not be as common as the constant repetition of the words based on sketchy or zero evidence suggests. It sounds like a script at this point.

It's also like the words "racist" and "racism," often paired with "systemic," that get flung about in spittle-spewing fits without any apparent factual regard or judgment.

Finally, you could use a proofreader.

I still disagree and see racism as a historically-determined structural issue in the US, not just some malignancy in the dark hearts of an outcast few (And I do discount anyone calling everything racist on twitter, such nonsense doesn't count).

As for a proofreader, well. I'm not writing a dissertation here. Besides, an edit feature would help.
