That's racist under the Ibrahim X. Kendi definition of racism (which is that anything which isn't anti-racist is racist)...
That is a bit extreme, I agree. But I don't think that's what's going on at all.
They are being called "racist" for voting for a racist. The policies of the latter being clearly racist, deporting brown people without trial (have they deported any white folks without a hearing...there a lot of white "visa overstayers" in the country). Removing references to minorities (including CMH recipients) on government websites. How is that not racist by any definition?
...and to believe in/support a more positive telling of America's history - even though doing any or all of those things might have a negative impact on minority communities.
If you're having a negative impact on minority communities, how is that not racist by any definition? Your actions should be either neutral or positive, or you likely are discriminating against that community.
They don't want to be called racist, but by pretty much any definition, they are. And they want to be open about it. Would they ever vote for a black POTUS, even if he were Rep? I suspect not.
As for history, it is what it is. There is a lot of positive to American history, but also a lot of negative. It's important to know about both, even if some of it is really unpleasant (e.g. slavery). That old trope "he who forgets the past is destined to repeat it".
