obviously if they say they are, duh......... please don't consult with you friend "webster", i don't want a definition, a down to earth answer,don't go crazy. some people feel if you call someone racist, that makes you racist. or f you don't have friends of a different race,ooo , you must be racist, or some even think where you are from deems you as racist(all southern whites are racist or all old black women are racist), lol when can you look at someone and finally say , dude, you are a racist? in case you were wondering , my idea of what make someone racist is that i compare is to a disorder. for example, someone who has an eating disorder of some sort will constantly talk about food , even when it has nothing to do with the topic. so in terms of a racist, a comment along the lines of (wow, look at the beautiful stars in the sky, are they white or are they yellow like asian people. i eat asian food ya kno.....) lol, race has nothing to do with the stars, you get what i'm saying,lol

A person is ONLY racist if their hatred OR ideas are ONLY centered around race and stereotype.
If they subcategorize, they may mean well but are still racist.
If they don't like a group of people who just happen to be all of the same race, they are not racist.
IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE GROUPING PROCESS

every single person in the world has said or thought something racist at one time or another. everyone around you is racist. being politically correct nowadays is not saying whats truly on your mind fortunately. Living in new york as a minority I've seen allot of racism and its obviously a natural human trait. It goes along with wanting to feel superior.

wow, that was so totally Incoherent!
I will anwser the question and not the long detail... if you can call it that. ha ha.
you know someone is a racist if they make non-joking derogotory comments about a race other then their own. or if they treat you like you are less then them because of your race... although sometimes they do this because they are snobs!

A person whose mind is tainted completely with prejudice and cannot open their mind to the fact that every race has good and bad people. A person who tries their hardest to distance themselves from certain races and teaches their kids to behave the same way towards them as well as poisoning their minds against certain groups. A person who carries a strong hatred in their hearts and in their minds

Past conflict between China and Japan in the 19th and 20th century probably has something to do with it.

If a person is a racist, they generally tell alot of stories that start with "I'm not a racist, but...."
Dead give-away.

I guess it depends how they talk about that race. If they say they hate them or something.

well where i live a lot of black people are racist, its really obvious they won't say excuse when they bump into you, they refuse to help you in a store if your white or won't even look or talk to you when you go to a fast food place that they work in, its really upsetting, and they cause people to be racist against them
