A politically correct person sees the differences in people, and rushes in to 'save' the 'poor, misunderstood, and needy' different entity.
A realist sees the differences and just doesn't see them as important.
A racist sees the differences between people and magnifies his own self-worth based on those differences, because he/she has a deep-seated need to improve his/her own bad self-image.
A bit over-simplistic maybe, but essentially accurate.

The thing with skin color is, there is a lot of bad history behind it. A lot of people have been murdered or oppressed for the color of their skin. I don't remember ever hearing of someone being murdered for the color of their hair. I can understand why race is a sensitive subject. I think some people are a bit too sensitive about it though and assume racism whenever race is mentioned, but sometimes mentioning race is isn't really racist. It depends on the context and the way it's said.
I don't consider it racist to mention what someone looks like (including race) if it is of some importance. It's prejudice (racism is one type of prejudice) when you connect the looks to a certain personality trait (violent, dumb, greedy etc.) and judge people or pick on them or think of them differently only because of the color of their skin or some other physical feature.

If B facilitates A...it would want to replace both one among them from being such. A might want to experience if B helped in having existence saved that it change into better significant then being such way about racist and A might want to experience an fairly good relief in having their existence saved. helping others stay can replace the way they experience,react in the direction of others and is Godly Blessed. it would want to truly have 2 human beings teach a replace can ensue even in undesirable cases.

No. But if you stereotype that sort of characteristics like saying blacks stink (come on, man. You should know better than that). Or you insult the group of people just because they are not purple.

What you are describing is harmless. We all know that our physical characteristics defer. It only gets offensive if it is related to something non physical, like work ethics or personality. I make comments about myself and I'm certainly no bigot.

singling anyone out based on a phsycal difference, or social stereotype, in any negative manner, is racism.
saying thiers 5 black people in this room and three whites, two latins, and 4 asians, is catigorizaation based on ethnicity, nothing more
