I hear red foxes may kill Arctic foxes. It's a case of whites getting oppressed.

Actually, no, they're "specist," since they're not different races, but entirely different species.

And anyway everyone knows burnt umber clashes with arctic white...

Is that a question? If the red foxes kill Arctic foxes, it's not because they're "racist."

This question is stupid, but... as others have said, they're different species. The REASON why red foxes and arctic foxes may kill each other is not because they're racist, or speciesist if you will, but because they compete for the same resources. Species with similar niches will often do this. Wolves will kill coyotes, lions and hyenas kill each other all the time, etc. It's common among predatory mammals.

The foxes are different species.
Races are members of the *same* species.
Big difference!

No.

I think you need to get out into nature more often. Why don't you take a trip to Alaska and try camping for a week on your own? Couldn't do you any harm.
