Honestly, I have no idea, but the answer simply can't be dismissed as "No".

This is the problem with the Racialist mind-set. Every single thing you engage with, everything you perceive, all aspects of culture, behavior, and perception must be filtered through the lens of your racialism.

Racism, as Racialism, as an ideology rather than just simple bigotry, is an incredibly insidious and subversive form of thought that is totalizing to your perspective on the world.

Compare a normal person, an anti-white bigot, and an anti-white racialist

If a person orders an ice cream:

  • A normal person seeks a flavor that interests them today
  • The bigot seeks a flavor that interests them today
  • The racialist avoids vanilla because it's too white, avoids tapioca because it's culturally miscegenist, and wants dark chocolate because it promotes blackness

If the server is white:

  • A normal person doesn't care
  • The bigot doesn't care
  • The racialist wonders if they will screw up the order on purpose because they don't like a strong, empowered, anti-racists.

If the server is white and messes up the order:

  • A normal person is bemused and wants it corrected
  • The bigot calls the server a dumb, white, bitch
  • The racialist claims that the white server is intentionally refusing to do their job because the racialist is non-white and immediately begins making a scene

In the end:

  • A normal person gets the correct ice-cream
  • The bigot leaves with the correct ice-cream and in a bad attitude
  • The racialist spends 30 minutes yelling at everyone until the police arrive, proving that the police are a white supremacist institution out to suppress non-whites.

This line of thinking happens in all people who are collectivist, ideological, zealots. Honestly, bigotry isn't even that big of an issue. It's a stupid opinion, and normally, for most genuine bigots, it stops past the scope of several bad experiences. But the Racialist is someone who makes their whole world view based around this ideological zealotry, and because it is ideologically totalizing, it effects literally every decision they make. There are no decisions that can't be made without racial considerations; even where a simple bigot would not leap to such conclusions. Each decision, each thought, each perspective, must all fit within their world-view. Even a racist bigot does not think like that.

The same thing goes for a soccer game.

If a football coach needs someone to score a game winning kick

  • A normal person puts in the person they think has the best chance of scoring.
  • A bigot puts in the person they think has the best chance of scoring
  • A racialist puts in the person that will have the most value in a propaganda victory because this opportunity for propaganda and narrative building is too important to waste on merit.

This is also why the racialists tend to fail
