I'm used to being logically consistent. If you say racism cannot be defined or is not real then it makes it look like you're contradicting yourself when you later point out racism against White people. If you want to be able to win over people in any debate outside of this forum then you need to be careful about the rhetorical strategies you use.
That’s not consistent, it’s playing by their book, do you think leftists care about hypocrisy? Do you think they will cower when you call them racist? Or do you think they will do what they did and just redefine “racism” along with “intersectional” power dynamics?
The types of people you're referring to aren't going to care if you say racism isn't real either, so your point is moot. If you think being logically consistent is not important because some people will ignore logic, then you actually are playing by their book.
Im not trying to reach them….
You should be trying to reach some people. Otherwise there is no point in writing arguments on the internet.
