they are racist to other races, but not to your race.

Well, I'm in New England, so the only race people are publicly racist against is my own (and generally their own). And if you had to worry about dating racists anywhere in the Northeast US (or probably the entirety of the US for that matter), you wouldn't be able to date at all. More generally, though, the question largely comes down to the nature of the racism and how that racism is expressed. If they're randomly claiming that white people ruined the world in your average conversation -- which is considered a socially acceptable form of racism, along with other anti-white racism that people who complain about racism don't even bat an eye at -- that's something I'm going to distance myself from. I don't run into a lot of WTF racism where it's something so outlandishly offensive you don't even want to stand near them.

As a general rule, if somebody is racially-virtue-signaling (or signalling their politics) on a dating profile, that's a hard pass right then and there because there's no reason to do that and if that's how they're choosing to present themselves, they're either insufferable or devoid of personality. Either way, I don't want anything to do with them. Usually I prefer to meet people offline, though, where unfortunately you might not spot a deal-breaker right away.
