A type of racism where people don't appear on the surface to themselves to be racist but advantage by and may support racist policy and institutional racism. A asymptomatic racist may justify such behavior under another guise of supporting policies such as law and order (to support LE officers profiling, selective enforcement of laws, brutal and inhumane police tactics), the right to protect one's self when threatened by people who are stereotyped as threatening, to win the war on drugs, and to assure people don't have unfair employment opportunities, against welfare because it destroys the incentive to work, assume some people are characteristically inferior, unfair business practices that target minorities, living in like minded highly segregated communities, etc.
Another asymptomatic symptom is when they do not say anything or attempt to prevent racist practices, and often have a personal benefit from allowing them to continue.
In some cases asymptomatic racism may be highly viable to the victims but not to those of the same race. For example, when someone touches their wallet when they see a minority, when a black person is not invited to a party because they may not fit in, when a person of another race is not given a supervisor position because of potential conflicts.
Arguing with someone with asymptomatic racism is difficult since they don't experience it and can't comprehend what a victim of the racism go through. However, they may actively resist any attempts toward equality or mitigating past racist practices such as affirmative action.

Refers to being in quarantine or self-isolation for an indefinite period of time, and the resulting paranoia and pessimism. Similar to a "Debbie Downer", "Negative Nancy", etc.
Person one: "Is this gonna be forever?"
Person two: "Oh, hush. Quit being such an asymptomatic asymptote."

Carrying infection (the COVID virus) without symptoms of illness.
DOCTOR: Sir, your physical exam is fine, but your COVID test is positive, meaning you are asymptomatic COVID carrier.
ME: Whaat, bruh? Naw, I feel good! I ain’t infected! What am I infected with?
DOCTOR: COVID, the test was for COVID. You are infected. With the COVID virus.
ME: That’s some bullshit! That ain’t me! I’m good, baby! 100% Beastmode!!
DOCTOR: Sorry sir, but the tests are accurate. You are an asymptomatic COVID carrier and you are at risk of infecting others.
ME: you ain't hearing me? Beast-fuckin’-Mode!
DOCTOR: You’ll need to quarantine yourself and wear a mask more consistently, to prevent the spread of COVID.
ME: Quara-what? Mask whaaa? Masks kill people! Nobody wore a mask and lived, EVER! You want me to die? Thought you was a doctor?!
DOCTOR: MmmKay. Sir. If I may...?
1) stop being a little bitch.
2) think about others you might infect.
3) wear your fucking mask, you bitchass fucktard.
4) Where my copay at, son???
ME: It’s just a fuckin conspiracy from the MMI (mask manufacturing illuminati)…fucking masks…
DOCTOR: Oh, and the mask covers you mouth AND YOUR NOSE. Because the COVID virus is up in your nose. So cover your fucking nose, Captain Beastmode. Stethoscope droppppp!!
A Public Health term: an easy to understand concept that dumb motherfuckers still ignore.
DOCTOR: Sir, your physical exam is fine, but your COVID test is positive, meaning you are an asymptomatic COVID carrier. Do you wear a mask?
ME: Asswhaaahh, bruh? Naw, I feel good! How a mask gonna help? My ass ain’t infected!
DOCTOR: I wouldn’t recommend wearing it there. You strike me as a pleasant, but obnoxiously stubborn man. As an ASS-CO (Asymptomatic COVID) carrier, you’ll need to quarantine yourself for two weeks and wear a mask more consistently, to prevent the airborne spread of COVID. Also take these pills.
ME: Quarra-what? Ass Mask whaaa? Masks kill people! Nobody wore a mask and lived, EVER! Masks are just a fuckin conspiracy from the MMI (mask manufacturing illuminati). …wut Pills?
DOCTOR: Magic Brain Pills (MBPs) that will temporarily make you smart enough to wear the ASS-CO mask over your mouth AND nose. As we cheerfully say in healthcare, “Don’t be a dumb cunt who can’t wear a mask correctly!”
Asymptomatic = you feel healthy and fine but lock yourself In your house and wear a chin diaper while panicking everyone around you.
Ryan can be asymptomatic because he works out, eats healthy and gets a lot of vitamin D.
