      That's why I was saying you were calling me a racist.

      Let me just point out that when you "corrected" my facts with the example "Trump is a racist" it hit a nerve with me.

      Again, as a therapist, if I hit a nerve, self-reflect and figure out what it brings out in you that you don't like about yourself.

      It is always possible that what someone doesn't like about what you are saying is to do with what you are saying tho.

      I mean, if someone feels hurt by a racist statement, it doesn't mean they need to go and reflect on what they don't like about their race.

      I agree, it is possible. In this case, if you are triggered by me not calling you a racists but feel I am, it's likely something inside you.

      I said 45 is a racist. If that triggers you, it is not likely it is me causing you to be triggered. But you are correct, not only option.

      It doesn't match their narrative and so they object to the claim itself. In the same way, you might feel its wrong to call Xtian God evil.

      Objecting to the claim that 45 is racist wouldn't trigger someone unless it had a personal feeling behind it, why would it. Would it trigger

      But it could be a personal feeling that the claim is wrong. Sometimes people are hurt by accusations they think are false & unfair.

          I don't think those claims are false & unfair but that doesn't mean people who do think they are know deep down that they're true.

          Like that" when we saw a black guy kissing white girl. He stated many racist things in my life, yet doesn't think is. Needs self-reflection

          And if a black person was hurt by your father. Would this indicate he needed to self-reflect on that and fix himself or was problem ur dad?

          Point is that sometimes people are hurt by others statements coz of something that needs fixing in themselves & sometimes coz other is nasty

          I agree, but in this case I wasn't being nasty. Just stated that based on actions, 45 is racist.
