Choose.




A) Claim that something is not racist.
Examples: "It's not about race.", "It is not racist in this context", "Times change and it is not racist anymore."

B) Question why, or point out that, some people can do things which is not permitted for other people to do.
Example: A joke about Irish people being told by an Irishman as opposed to the joke being told by a non-Irishman.

A is dependent on the thing in question. Like there's a world of difference between someone claiming something isn't racist because they didn't MEAN it to be racist and saying something isn't racist and it not being racist but someone else claiming it is.

B is racist since, even at best, it's someone being able or unable to do something simply due to their race.

To the extent that you are normally.

It's more of a category of related examples.

I think you might have misunderstood. B is asking about or calling attention to that point. It's the reaction to the joke that was told, not the telling of the joke.
