It seems to me the word racist is slung about today like its the cool thing to do. Everyone says it to just about everyone.
I've been called racist because I said Europe is superior to Africa. Am I wrong? Does it make me racist to say this, the truth?

the sad thing is that everyone is racist, they just don't admit it
it is not wrong to be partial to people with whom you share traits
not to say the people shouldn't be looked at as individuals with their own merits and choices as a member of society, but
race is a difference among people as much as sex, and it should not be seen to be racist if one notices these differences
it is racist to insist that any one characteristic of one race as compared to another as superior or valued or as inferior or not valued.... the characteristics exist now for some reason... I think the most interesting thing about the races is not which one is better or worse, but to understand why they exist to begin with... why all the differences.... why similar behaviors with similar traditions but different expressions... thats what interests me... but make no mistakes there are members of each and every race that thinks they are superior to all and feel the need to demonstrate this as often as possible... this is the ultimate in racist behavior regardless of its origins..

I think their is a fine line between racism and strong opinions. One person may see the subject as being completely different. Were there facts behind your statement or was it just an opinion?
Racism is a very sketchy thing. I think it is all based on very strong opinions from individuals.

being racist today is just as easy as it has been in the past. racism existed since the dawn of time with every living being.

Well why do you have to say it? It certainly makes people angry to hear to the truth...

I agree with you, it has reached "pathetic nonsense" proportions and it's very, very boring.
