Racists are by definition racist, so the answer is not only yes, they can, but also they necessarily are, and I am taking this thread too seriously.

No, no, it's like this.

What is your opinion of the quote a lot of people are saying these days: "Can racists be racist? It is not possible for someone to be truly racist; all racists can be fundamentally good people. Even the Gestapo officers had wives and families who they loved dearly and should not be condemned out of hand as racist. Therefore racists are not racist." I hear this quote at least five times a day.

Racism= privilige + power + opportunity

Do you see anything in that definition about being racist, I sure don't.
