I think you’re projecting and trying to defend your ego against supporting racist policy, because you’re not racist so how can the war on drugs be?

Please tell me how harsher sentencing on crack cocaine compared to cocaine is not the dictionary definition of racism. It sorts one group out from another (statistically crack cocaine is used more by black people), which is discrimination, and then punishes those people, racism.

The good thing is instead of trying to mind-bend your way around supporting a racist policy, you can just change your opinion free of charge.

Again, if some action has different effect on racism, it does not make it inherently racist.

Wikipedia quotes original reasoning: crack cocaine is way more dangerous than powder cocaine.

Let me give another example. Illegal possession of a firearm is more often applied to black people. But that policy is not racist.

Note, I do not support this policy.

I'm arguing the policy itself (regardless of whether it is good or bad) is not racist.
