That's racist!

A person can be white and a nationalist and not be prejudiced, believe in white supremacy or segregation . Hence it's a stupid definition.
Are you seriously arguing with Merriam-Webster over how to define a term? LOL. This is great.

Seriously, who the hell do you think you are, that you get to tell Webster's how to define things?

I mean, seriously, who the hell do you think you are? Good lord.

Yes, they can be and are wrong.

Who do I think I am? I think I'm someone with more common sense than whoever wrote that definition for M-W. If it would be "Nationalist White Supremacist" I'd agree with the definition but since there are millions of exceptions to their definition it's inaccurate.

“Listen, just because a registered voter in my state believes their race is superior to all others, I’m not going to call that registered voter a racist.”

Why wouldn't you call that person a racist? Seems dumb not to since they believe their race is superior.

It's very telling about your own state of mind, that you think your understanding of the meaning of a term deserves recognition over that of an established authority of close to 200 years (founded in 1831), such as Merriam-Webster.

I agree. It is telling (and quite surprising) that my mind is less cluttered and open to true meaning than such a venerable institution as M-W. But I'm also not politically compromised either so there's that.

LOL. You think you get to override Merriam-Webster, and define the "true meaning" of terms? This is rich.

A boost in the self-awareness department wouldn't hurt you. You are accusing Merriam-Webster of a political bias .... because they don't define a term to your liking? Even for this forum, this is an especially ridiculous line of thinking.

You support people who can’t define what a woman is. How does MW define it?

Now if this isn’t the pot calling the kettle black.

I think he thinks he can have an opinion on the definition of something. What's really strange is this hill you want to be on that says Merriam - Webster can't be wrong. Weird.
