All leftists are. When your ideology is founded on group identity bigotry defines you. It is the epitome of doublethink that they think their bigotry is anti racism and anti sexism because they are sexist and racist against those who deserve it in their opinion.

I recently had an epiphany about the prefix "anti-". It is often applied to convey the notion of opposition, but it also can be used to mean "in the opposite direction" (e.g. anti-particles, physical particles that have opposite characteristics in some way).

"Anti-racism" makes total sense with this understanding: we must not be racist (against POC), we must be anti-racist (racist against white people).

they're against saying all lives matter. How can one be against those words. Those include black lives.
