Not a popular opinion with "your kind" but the definition of racism is having the power to control the laws

idk "my kind" tends to think definitions aren't absolute, but rather based on usage. Most of the way I hear racism used means racial discrimination, not "having power to control the laws." But "my kind" doesn't care about the words, just asking about the meaning
I mean... Heard from whom, though?
Like, I got taught racism by some very well meaning white people... Then I got taught racism by people who live the negative effects of it and... It's like learning about SW from TV, then actually listening to a SWer...

I ran a pretty large survey on what people meant by the definition of racism, a few thousand people I think from different parts of the internet? it was a while ago, I can get you the stats tomorrow (am in bed now), but the majority said racism was discrimination based on race.
