It's not racist to point out facts

You should say that to the "leftists", every single one of us (who hold the same opinion as me) can't get through to them.
It's like they care a lot more about race than us...

I make up my own mind about people and races, but a lot of the people of the particular races insist on fitting the stereotype.
Blacks are (welfare) leeches and criminals, middle-easterns are jihadists who want to bring sharia every where, latinos are wannabe gangsters in gangs, etc...

Everybody is racist. The only difference is that some people choose to live in denial and that not all people react quite so negatively to other races. But deep down everyone has a preference for their own skin colour.

Sure, but you'll still have a preference for whatever you are.

Keep in mind there's quite a difference between having a preference for one thing over another, and discrimination.
Preference is not, by itself, racism. If I like 3 things and I like a fourth thing even better, that doesn't mean I'm prejudiced against the previous 3 things.
If you actively dislike 3 things and like 1, and let your dislike paint your actions, paints your words, then that would be a different story.

Let's say I'm working in a factory, with my instructions being "paint those balls one of 4 colors : Red, Orange, Blue, Green. At the end of the day we want an equal amount of balls of each colors".
I like green better but I know it's my own personal taste, I follow the instructions.
Did I do something wrong? Nah. My preference was simply that : a preference. It influenced me and only me.

Now let's take the same scenario but slightly different : I like red better.
I decide that some of my orange balls will be painted red instead, because orange is just a gayer version of red. Orange is obviously inferior and not worth the effort.
Did I do something wrong? In this case, the answer is definitely yes.
My actions are being driven not only by me preferring one thing, but at the detriment of something else.

Racism isn't simply thinking "Well, I like A better than B", there must also be a negative component to it. Your actions being affected is a big clue.

That reminded me fat nutritionists are some of the funniest and ridiculous mix i've seen. And most of them also seem to think very highly of themselves as well lol. Though i guess even more ridiculous are the people who would listen to this characters.

And let's say that don't give me any clear instructions and just a bunch of balls and colours. So then I decide to paint at least one ball in each colour but most of the rest I make red cuz that's my favourite colour. Technically I haven't harmed any of the other colours but I have shown clear preference that will influence others. And even if I didn't do that and dead instead paint them all equal my first impulse was still to follow my preference.

It's that first impulse I'm taking about. Sure you may not broadcast it and may in the end always do everything equally but with that first impulse being there you can't deny that racism exists and that even you yourself at least in very small part racist.


For a more appealing example of what I'm talking about. Let's say there's a beauty contest and girls of all races end up in the Top10 with the girl of whatever your race is (for anyone reading this example) ending up in the Nr.8 spot. Chances are that to you that she's hotter than a couple of gals in front of her and that she should be at least in the Top5 if not Top3. That's a clear sign of racism even if you think they're all smoking hot. And if you simply can't regard ANY of the other girls to be prettier than her then you're already a step or two up the racism ladder. And that right there is something EVERYONE in the entire world will feel (providing of course the girl of your race doesn't tick an insta-fail box) to some degree or another. It's human nature at work.

I'm not saying this sort of thing turns you into a KKK crazed nut but it does more you a hypocrite and a moron if you deny racism itself.
