Note
The -s marks a noun, and only a noun. Racist doubles as an adjective, but English adjectives never take a plural ending, so a phrase like "racists remarks" is always an error: write racist remarks, but several racists. The loose, discouraged sense "discriminatory" belongs to the adjective alone, so it does not carry over into this plural, which always names people.
