What is racist...  A hypothetical.?
963700
A politically correct person sees the differences in people, and rushes in to 'save' the 'poor, misunderstood, and needy' different entity.\n\nA realist sees the differences and just doesn't see them as important.\n\nA racist sees the differences between people and magnifies his own self-worth based on those differences, because he/she has a deep-seated need to improve his/her own bad self-image.\n\nA bit over-simplistic maybe, but essentially accurate.

That's not racist.  That's greedy or whatever similar word.

Racist= someone who wants special benefits and privleges over others because of their race.  It will stop being about race when racists stop demanding special treatment.

I think racism LIMITS a country's potential.  I wonder how many Bill Gates' types there have been who were held back because of prejudice.  Businesses that never got started.  Jobs that never were available.  \n\nI feel there are two reasons prejudice will always be with us in one form or another.\n\nFeeling superior.\nThis was said to me (by someone who never could hold down a job or make ends meet) when I asked if he could afford the rent where he was moving.\n"What do you think? I'm not like those muchachos from the other side of the tracks who doesn't even TRY to pay their bills!"\ntranslation; I may be a loser but I'm not as a big of a loser as THOSE people!\n\nShortcut\nI takes a while to know who is honest & who isn't, who is a hard worker & who isn't, etc.\nPrejudice allows people to think they can look at someone & have a short cut to knowing those important things. \n\nI suspect a lot of the prejudice blacks face today isn't racism in the strict sense. It's not prejudice against the race, as much as the culture. In other words, "it's OK to be black as long as you walk, talk & act white." It's still prejudice. \n\nExample: A black with a strong black dilect will be treated very differently from one who talks "white."\n(I'm not talking about bad grammer, just different phonetics.)\n\nI think of Jeff Foxworthy's joke "People hear this accent & automatically want to deduct 20 IQ points." How many IQ points do you think get deducted from someone with a black dialect?

Wuss?\n\nAll the 'racist' comments I've seen lately have little to do with racism and everything to do with someone stating a position contrary to what is wanted.

Nope.  I'm no better than he is.  We're all God's children.  Like it or not.  And if you aren't racist, why would you even ask that?  I truly feel like we are all a little racist, whether we know it or not.  If we weren't, we wouldn't see anyone as being a different race or a different color.  But the reality is that we do.  How we deal with it is the problem.....

Being a racist against white people is just as possible as being a racist against blacks, hispanics, or asians.  There are groups that are racist towards white people.  "The Black Nationals" is the most prominent right now, although the "New Black Panthers" is catching up quickly.

If you mean "racists," then the answer is a definite "yes."\n\nIf you don't know the answer because you've never encountered one (that you know of) then consider yourself lucky!

Racism, for it is never justified.  One might say that being jingoistic could be justified on patriotic grounds, but racism can never be.

You are a racist idiot...

Categorizing people by their heritage or race is not racist. There is a right way and a wrong way to refer to ones race. Common sense should tell you the difference between a racial slur as opposed to a description.

Without looking it up, I would say that a racist is someone who discriminates based on race. Now let's look it up..... well after looking it up, appears I was right on the money.\n\nTo all the morons saying the poster is racist, I believe he is referring to people throwing the word racist around as a counterpoint to someones DIFFERENT opinion on the immigration issue... Why is that people cannot disagree without being a racist?

Yes, African-Americans can be racist. \nHowever, it is my firm belief that white people are the superior domination of this planet.(this is not meant to be racist)This means there are more white people than any other nationality in the world, Japan/China is second. \nThere are many other races and all of them are capable of racism even the dominating "species" can be racist. \nIt is unfortunate that racism exists. But it does and once taught, it stays with us and gets passed down.\nRacism has been around since the dawn of man, NO ONE is immune to it. \nWe have all experienced racism once or twice(if not more) in our life. \nI am only one person out of the trillions of people who live on this planet. \nI DO NOT discrimate anyone, and I do not tolerate racism. \nI am only one person, but anyone who try to put thier racism on me will be PUT IN THIER PLACE!!!\nWe are all beautiful, no matter what color we are. We are all unique and special. NO one has the right to judge/discrimate anybody. \nI don't want to be like the others who maybe racist. I choose to be different and love mankind as a whole, NOT based on color. \nPS...Whatever your nationality is being african-american, caucasion, etc. we should cherish our heritage and be proud of who we are and were we came from!! \nGod Bless America and all the other nations of this Earth!!\nHope this helped answer your question.

The belief in racism is not illegal as this would violate the constitution. However, many racist acts are illegal.

it plainly is racist. it is the very definition. MLK would be appalled.\nquestions of race should not appear on any application for anything. affirmative action has been quite detrimental to blacks as a whole. it expects black to achieve less and they have come to expect it from themselves and comply. it is high time that MLKs dream come true and that such institutionalized racism be done away with.
