-> -> Yes, it is.

-> I asked if you would consider it racist to call a black person an "oreo
-> cookie."

Depending on time circumstance speaker tone intent, yes - or no.




  Your answer here was that you "can imagine" someone saying it.
-> You imagine things all the time.  That wasn't the question.  The
-> question was whether it would be a racist remark. 

The answer necessitate nuance. 


 But no matter, since
-> later on you got around to saying that you WOULD consider it racist.  A
-> quite interesting admission on your part.

Yes I would consider it racist depending on who and when and etc...

he point should be... is declaring someone who has black skin yhat is or is
trying to be and act as a man with pinkish  skin is laudatory or
disgraceful. Deceitful or progressive. Is it deeply significant that an
orio to meet its destiny to be thoroughly be enjoyed, must come together
and be enjoyed mutually, appreciated as a wonderful blend...ah, the
Profound Cookie...:-)
