Racist?!

No way! I'm just commenting on the fundamental genetic superiority of one race to another—it's not racism. I'm just saying that all members of each race possess traits or characteristics specific to that race.

Dude, it's not racist. All I'm saying is that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. How is it racist to say that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race? Jeez, since when are race-based prejudice, violence, discrimination, or oppression automatically racist?

Oh, so suddenly it's "racist" to distinguish, exclude, restrict, or prefer based on race, color, descent, or national or ethnic origin in a way that has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment, or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural, or any other field of public life?

I guess I'm a big racist, now, just because I denigrate and subordinate racial minorities.


[BONUS ROUND]
Man, all you do is be prejudiced or hostile toward people of Jewish lineage in a way that is ultimately rooted in and based upon a historical religio-cultural aversion to their core ancestral religious beliefs and way of life, and suddenly you're an "anti-Semite"...
