Bayesian reasoning: there are two kinds of people who state their true racial preferences in their profile:
those considerate to other people’s feeling, so they don’t want them to send a message and get rejected needlessly; while sufficiently autistic to not realize what kind of a signal this sends
unapologetic racists
In population, the latter are way more frequent than the former. Which is what makes it a signal of racism.
