You really are a fucking racist...and no, Benny, regardless of whether it makes you feel better about your own racism, we aren't all racists, like you.
Stop trying to normalize your racism, while vehemently denying that you are normalizing racism...... lol.....?

You seem to be responding like I just admitted to being a witch. I don't think you're hearing this like I'm saying it. I'm guessing that "racist" carries a lot of automatic associations that I don't ascribe to it-- issues about fair treatment, threats to well-being, and so on. I'd hope you would know that I have no interest in keeping black people down, or in endorsing physical threats or deliberately oppressive policies.
I didn't say I'm a white supremacist, or that I place different value on people of different race. I'm saying that ALL people are racist, if they hold ideas that there are meaningful differences among races. I think it's an instinctive fact; and as usual, I am prepared to meet your fart-sniffing outrage with actual facts.

Now, many of us have experiences or philosophical ideas through which we overcome that instinctive preference for like-self, and that instinctive distrust of not-like-self.
And MY kind of racism isn't that at all (I think). I believe that there are in fact probably meaningful differences among races. Is suspect black people are more athletic, white people more belligerent, and Asian people more intelligent. But overall, I don't value one over the other. And I certainly don't believe that there aren't brilliant black people, super-athletic Asian people, or white people who don't have an ingrained desire to take shit over.
But I think pretending that because we see every individual as MORALLY equivalent, we must also insist that there couldn't possibly be meaningful differences in other regards, does a disservice both to truth and to the individuals involved.
