An adherent of rawism (raw foodism); a type of strict fad diet that entails sustaining on foods that are uncooked & only minimally heated. Many forms of food processing are also vilified.
The motives behind such diets are usually based on pseudoscientific notions that unheated foods are inherently safer, more nutritious, easier to digest & more natural. Generally these sentiments aren’t supported by food safety guidelines, nutritional science, or the history of human evolution. Some cooking and food processing methods can actually increase certain nutrients, make nutrients more bioavailable, ease digestion, and reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
The most stringent rawist will reject foods that have been heated by anything other than sunlight & will only eat unprocessed/minimally processed whole foods.
Some rawist are more flexible. They are open to eating certain processed foods and every so often they will eat a meal that incorporates foods cooked extra-extra-rare (40°C seems to be the arbitrarily chosen limit).

Get the rapist-in-chief mug.Someone who is against racism towards specific racial group(s) they like, but also advocates for and/or encourages racism against different particular racial group(s) they don't like. The preferential racist tries to hide behind the fact they are against racism only partially as long as it is towards racial groups they prefer, and in doing so they think they are somehow granted special privileges that make it okay for them to be racist towards racial groups they don't prefer. Additionally they will often use nonsense mental gymnastics and fallacious reasoning to blame the problems of racial group(s) they like on the racial groups they don't like as a way to disguise and legitimize their racism. They are hypocrites and ironically, racist.
Preferential Racist: We need to finally have a conversation about the racism towards racial group X. Other racial group Y is inherently bad and the root of all of their problems!
Rationalist: By have a conversation you actually mean you just want us to receive your blessed wisdom through a monologue in which your aim is to convert us to your nonsense ideology. If any of us disagree with you, you will just call us racist, accuse us of being part of the problem, and put us in a box of one of the racial groups you don't like. So you don't actually want to have a conversation. Anything that can be seen as racial progress is something that will be talked around, instead of celebrated.
