Should you've stopped at "everyone can be racist", the comment would've been an excellent, if oversimplified, synthesis of the issue.

E:

> No one wants to debate pedantic redefined terms

Some do, and we can give them the space to do that without implying that the effort is automatically deserving of consideration.

> pedantic redefined terms that liberal arts professors came up with so they could sell books

That's a somewhat silly thing to argue. That's not how it really works, and it's not a "liberal" thing, whatever that may mean. (I assume it's an American term meant to designate something that's not conservative.)

Otherwise, what you say is correct.

The person you responded to never said it was a liberal thing, but liberal arts.
