First, off there are no semantics here...
You claimed: "You don't think you could identify racism or prejudice without someone spelling out their intentions?
That's silly."
I gave you scenarios, and you proceeded to identify each persons intention (which is a truth claim). The point of my questioning was to demonstrate that it's not simple to distinguish between racism and prejudice. I don't know what line of reasoning you have to think otherwise. You could try explaining instead of simply disagreeing.
and racism doesn't need to be systemic to exist.

It demonstrates an action which may appear to be racist or prejudice could be completely innocent. That's pretty much exactly my point, you don't know.
