I have people in my family that I consider to be racist. They have a predetermined opinion of racial minorities that is negative. They speak derogatorily of racial minorities in casual conversation. To my knowledge they take no actual actions against the interest of racial minorities and it is all talk. I'm quite sure they don't consider themselves racist.
Can they be "good" people ? I would say yes because everything is on a spectrum of relativity and if you are good in 5 or 6 areas of life and bad on racial issues there is an overall weight that needs to be taken into consideration. But you're still racist and it is still a serious character flaw.
I'm not sure I get your meaning. So are you referring to anybody that does not support Biden as a racist, which because I am in that category does that mean me as well?

Kinda restores my faith in humanity.
It proves to me that there are good people in Arizona.
Somewhere...
Yes there are, and not all are Biden supporters.
It's a mystery to me.
I know people who are personable and charming... and deeply racist... How may they be described? "Good people"?
Can a racist be a "good person"?

It's a hard question.
Being good to puppies doesn't take much effort.
Being good to "one of them" is hard, since we're hard-wired not to. It requires real effort.
Do we give gold stars for being good, in contexts where it's easy? Or do we wait to see a difficult context?

No. Being anti-Biden in no way equates to racist. There's no relation between the two characteristics.
Okay, then I misunderstood. My apologies.
No problem.
It seems that Cindy was a ferocious partisan against Trump.
Good lady!
