You and Blackie share the dubious "honor" of being the liars
in these parts.
From Wikipedia:
Racism, by its simplest definition, is the belief that race
is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities
and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority
of a particular race. People with racist beliefs might hate
certain groups of people according to their racial groups.
In the case of institutional racism, certain racial groups
may be denied rights or benefits, or get preferential
treatment. Racial discrimination typically points out
taxonomic differences between different groups of people,
even though anybody can be racialised, independently of
their somatic differences.
===========
Gee, Jim, none of the above hold true for me or my beliefs.
There is only one race, the human race and humans are found
in nearly infinite verities of shape, size, skin tone,
facial features, physical abilities, intelligence, hair
texture ... it really would be stupid to categorize any
group by a set of those features because the distribution of
the characteristics is not fixed. There are highly
intelligent people in any given racial or ethnic group;
there are also some that a dumber than rocks in the same
ethnic group.
