I can't think of a more textbook example of racism than blaming the actions of a relative few on the entire culture of ethnic groups comprising 1B+ people and spanning thousands of years. Except maybe, describing said people with allusions to well-known historical slurs.

That has nothing to do with American political opinions or word-policing. That's just, like, racism.

What isn't racism is a criticism of a current government's or government department's policy/strategy.

Before you say policy and the decisions of a few are a result of their culture, check out the Fundamental [0] and Ultimate [1] Attribution Errors.
