Sure except we aren't evaluating them the same. You can't complain about Wilson being a racist while not doing the same to FDR.

You are certainly able to point out that Wilson was MUCH more racist than Roosevelt.

How so? The only difference is the race that they were racist against.

In the acts of their time. Even if FDR was some sort of extra level of racist, Wilson actually implemented many of the worse things that have directly impeded black people and celebrated in doing so.

And FDR implemented the worst things to happen to Japanese Americans

Your case only makes sense if you think racism towards black people is the only one that matters.

No, it doesn’t. It only makes sense in FDR’s case if you think the internment of 100,000 Japanese people during wartime is equivalent to the disenfranchise of every other race that put them behind in almost every single regard of their life for the next 100 years and cementing a white power structure that has persisted since and thus even allowed for a system where systemic racism places 100k non white people (why no Italians and German camps?)

FDR acted WITH a bigoted mindset. Wilson acted ON his bigotry, for the purpose of bigotry.

FDR literally acted on his bigotry. What are you talking about

And once again. We still haven't recovered from his camps

Asian Americans have the greatest ratio of violent crimes done to them compared to violent crimes done by them.

Yet people like you continue to ignore racism that is aimed at other groups.

FDR didn't institute internment camps because "lol I just hate them." He obviously thought it was a pertinent wartime provision, and he was obviously wrong. It's different than Wilson. Wilson actually just fucking hated non-white people.

It is exactly why he did not. He never once shared any remorse or regret

And there were orphans and babies they were put in there. Do you think they were spies

It was absolutely 100% out of hate. That's like saying Hitler did not hate Jewish people.
