I'll start there - if that helps eliminate confusion, then we can talk about the rest.

Also - do people really need me to explain why being offended is not disempowering in and of itself? Really? How do you explain stand-up comedy?
This is so clear and concise that nothing else needs to be said.

But I will add that "intent" is not a necessary condition in racism and racial and ethnic discrimination.
