> There's a massive difference between unconscious bias, unintentional casual racism and overt intentional in-your-face racism.

There sure is, but you missed an important classification "covert intentional but significant racism"

> Joe Biden didn't refuse to rent to blacks.

No he did far worse, he spent the first part of his career trying to keep segregation alive, it was his primary goal for the better part of a decade at least... Id say trying to keep all blacks of the USA segregating is quite a bit worse than not renting to blacks.

That isnt to say him not renting to blacks is bad, its horribly racist. My point is, Joe can and has gone toe to toe with him on racism.

The only difference is Joe learned his overt racism wasnt working, so he went into stealth racism mode and instead of directly attacking the blacks and minorities now he exploits them for his own personal gains.

> Joe Biden doesn't deny the existence of systemic racism or think whites are the real victims.

Oh he definitely did.. By promoting to keep segregation alive in the 80s when he wasnt covert about his racism he very much was painting the whites as the victim... after all he claimed the reason he didnt want segregation is so his white children werent the victims of a "racial jungle"... yea sorry he played that card too
