    Even though technically "racist" may not be the right term, it is widely used.
    In the context it was used it is indicating someone that has pre-conceived notions about others or stereotypes others to some degree.
    Link sales is just saying,

    "People discriminate, whether negatively or positively, its just what we do. I'm going to immediately judge someone as soon as I see them, the easiest thing to spot is skin color and with that comes a generalization I've concocted in my own mind."

    I agree with link sales, and based on that definition I would be considered a racist. I don't think I'm alone, so many people are so scared to just be honest and admit they do it as well to one degree or another. But I know, black people are never noisy at the movie theater, rednecks hate nascar, and asian people drive really really well. Thinking any other way would be wrong wrong wrong!:)

    The concept was not around until after the fall of the empires of old. Back when the world was ruled in one area no one gave a crap about what you looked like - and slaves were kept on the basis of who you conquered. It was made as a justification for oppression - and the sooner no one sees it the sooner we're better off. Part of that cultural re-education I always talk about.

    Oh yes, I remember it well those roman tinheads really should have seen that coming. Those were some good times!:)
    After the cultural re-education will we have a base of knowledge that we can expand on from learning new things? If so, I am afraid I will digress again to my stereotyping ways.:)

    If your eyes work, you're racist. We all have tendencies to group similarities whether good or bad.
