Racism is commonly defined as a belief or doctrine where inherent biological differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, with a corollary that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
The term racism can also mean one is proud of one's race without discriminating others (ethnocentrism), fear of foreigners (xenophobia), views or preferences against interbreeding of the races (miscegenation), and nationalism, and/or a generalization of a specific group of people (stereotype); regardless of any explicit belief in superiority or inferiority embedded within such views or preferences. Racism has been used in attempts to justify social discrimination, racial segregation and violence, including genocide. Politicians are known to practice race-baiting in an effort to win constituents.
The term racist, when used to describe someone who supports racism, has been a pejorative term since at least the 1940s, and the identification of a group or person as racist is nearly always controversial.

there's nothing wrong with racism, it's cool if you're proud of your race, but if you discriminate other races then run into a knife and die with your racist shithead friends.

Get the Racismmug. People with a different colour are called names like negro or nigga.
This word should not be used in any sentence, because it is racist
A lot of times it’s not black people who people are mostly racist to, but it could be anyone like asians or Indians

Get the Racismmug. The belief of one race being superior to another race.
Something that I hate and do not engage in. The people who do are known as racists. The typical people who are targets of racism are Blacks and Hispanics. However, Whites are often attacked by other races, which is also known as "reverse racism". It's something that people shouldn't even participate in, especially considering how far we have come. Being a fifth (20%) Native American and being White of English and German heritage, I don't really think I have any place in racist behavior. Since I have a very significant amount of Native American blood, I am part of the "Mother of All Minorities". I AM diverse!

I love black people; I think they are hilarious, most of them are devout Christians, and the majority of them have been respectful to me for who I am, and they were NEVER racist towards me.

Get the Racismmug. A word that has lost meaning. Racism means when a certain race hates another, and sees themself as superior. Therefore acting out in silly ways and saying racist remarks. In modern society it means anyone who disagrees with you and if you're specifically white. Racism in today's terms doesn't apply to black people either.
"Racism is a double-standard."

Get the Racismmug. 1. A lie created by your government in order to distract and divide the masses.
2. The ultimate excuse for people who can't make something of themselves because they prefer to spend their days whining about every minor injustice.

Racism is bullshit because I wasn't racist until I was forced to suffocate in the liberal agenda day in and day out.
