Racism is by definition a belief. Someone is racist if they believe in such a belief. Actions are actually irrelevant to this definition.

Similarly a fascist is someone that believes in the fascism ideology. That's just how these words work.

People have expanded the definitions to mean all sorts of bullshit to fit their agenda. You're expecting us to take your definitions at face value, that's laughable.
