Intellectual Honesty, Racism, and Me.

I think everyone has prejudices, but it seems like there isn't a distinction between prejudice and racism anymore. I always thought there was a difference. All of Raspberry's issues sound more like prejudice to me.

it seems like prejudice is thinking a certain way, and racism is acting on that way of thinking. so I would say you may have prejudices, but you haven't been racist because you haven't really taken an action based upon your prejudice. Just making fun of Vinylone doesn't count, sorry.

perhaps that's oversimplifying, but I think it's in the ballpark.
 
I aint prejudiced ginst NOBUDDY! Well, except mebbe for curmudgeony, lithium-crazed midwestern Babes who wanna castrate your sorry ***. But, even then, only if they aint HOT.

No, the point is that Everyone's a Little Bit Racist. That's the name of the song Kicky referenced. I added The Internet Is For Porn. I'd post links, but...
