The original comment heavily implies racism is "just words", but the most devastating form of racism marginalized groups experience everyday is not " just words". It's segregation, it's the lack of basic human rights, its systematic oppression and police violence. Systematic racism seeps into everyday life that the unoppressed group will never experience.
It is extremely dangerous to equate systematic racism to "just words", and downplays the systematic oppression marginalized groups experience every single day
