prejudice

The condition of believing that one group, most often one the prejudor belongs to, is superior to another group. Most often applies in a negative manner, against those of different race, religion, creed, and nationality. see stereotype, anti-semetism, racism.

Hating people because they're black, gay, Jewish, Muslim, or whatever doesn't make much sense. You can easily find ways to hate people on an individual basis.

Racism vs. Prejudice

Prejudice is to be human. Every one of us judges others on first contact. Usually through the filter of our own life experiences. Racism is a deep seeded superiority complex based purely on race. It usually requires joining a racism club and buying silly looking costumes. IE: KKK/Neo Nazis, Black Panthers/Nation of islam, Mecha/La Raza, etc,etc,etc.

Redneck like me #1:Steve crossed the "Racism vs. Prejudice" line the other day!

Redneck like me #2: Wad the dumbfuck do?

Redneck like me #1: He went and joined the KKK. What's he so proud of? His shitty trailer, or the fact that he married his first cousin?

Redneck like me #2: I dunno man, niggers irritate me too, but I'm not wearing that stupid looking bullshit!
