It's not about agreeing or not. You can say you hate Obama because of what he did, you just can't say it's because he's black. There's no discussing in racism, it's not something you agree or disagree with. Racism is just objectively wrong. |
First things first - something being objectively wrong is a non-starter. Maybe you're religious and you embrace divine command theory, or perhaps you're just fundamentally ignorant on the topic. Either way, the metaethical framework matters, and you're not going to find some universal agreement on moral oughts. I'm not even convinced moral realism is true, let alone a particular deontological or consequentialist approach is tenable.
Secondly, if someone is racist what purpose does it serve to censor them? They are still a racist and saying the same things you find objectionable behind closed doors. Out of sight, out of mind mentality?
