If you discriminate against an individual from an identifiable group based solely on them being a member of that group...thats racism 101.
If you discriminate against someone because they are annoying..thats discrimination.
If Muslims discriminate against Indians...thats racism.
Job gets it shocker.

There are about 172 million muslims in India. Shut up.

No, its discrimination you fucking idiot, because an Indian Muslim and an Indian Hindu are the same ethnicity. The clue is in the name; racism. Racism is the dumbest of the categories of discrimination because its basically based on colour alone. By your moronic reckoning sexism or ageism would also be "racism" because women and old people are identifiable groups. Seriously, is there fucking lead in the water round your way? Because you're getting dumber by the hour.

To be precise, a Pakistani and an Indian are essentially the same ethnicity too. Obviously there are different groups but a man-made border doesn't define ethnic group.

Racism by DEFINITION is deiscrimination against any identifiable group based entirely on them being a member of that group.
It doesnt just mean race..because race doesnt actually exist.

No, it is discrimination based on their racial group, hence why it starts with the letters R, A, and C - the E is dropped because of language.

In very similar ways Sexism and Ageism start with a brief description of what they are about too.

I am not sure there is one for stupid people...may I suggest Jobism?

Job in "thick as fuck racist cunt" shocker.

From the Oxford English Dictionary:

A belief that one’s own racial or ethnic group is superior, or that other such groups represent a threat to one's cultural identity, racial integrity, or economic well-being; (also) a belief that the members of different racial or ethnic groups possess specific characteristics, abilities, or qualities, which can be compared and evaluated. Hence: prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against people of other racial or ethnic groups (or, more widely, of other nationalities), esp. based on such beliefs. Cf. racialism n.

@Job clearly doesn't get it, non-shocker, but will never ever understand why he doesn't get it.

I believe what you are looking for is the definition of prejudice see 2 C
Definition of PREJUDICE

Read up on Leviticus if you want to a list of horrible things Christianity has written that one must do to those who are different

Islam is no different, the reason you are all up in arms is because the attacks are happening in our back yard even if they are small potatoes in the religious wars that have been ongoing in Africa and Asia in the last decades see Sri Lanka, Mayanmar, Central African Republic, Northern parts of India, Palestinian massacres in Lebanon

Not to mention all the nutters in the US (sorry they are disturbed lone wolves - thoughts and prayers)

We like to think that Christianity has moved on from this stuff but in reality that "stuff" is mostly cultural friction with religion used as an excuse to either kill people or excert control over a population

It's all those Indians clinging to the outside of the train :)

Anyway on Weinstein/Spacey/CK etc - I'm seeing lots of evidence for new allegations, but very little in the way of attention from Law Enforcement - what gives?

I do like how people are so quick to come up with an excuse/alibi/reason for whatever that happened one night in 1986.

I don't remember my wedding night, I struggle to understand how I would remember work Xmas party 2006...tbh

You are drscribing the very essence of the problem ..in an era of identity politics, every tom dick and harry group is claiming racism...jews..muslims..gypsies...any minority really .they are quite clearly not a race and the term has been adjusted to encompass them..where does racism end and discrimination start?
Basically how vocal you are and how many in your group combined with historical leverage.
Having racist views is not racism..acting upon them is, though being a racist and gassing the jews is now pretty well the same thing in the eyes of most.

We'd like to catch people who have discriminatory views towards others before they gas them.

Very simply, with race. It's not a tough concept unless you're a racist and don't wish to be termed such, so try to "redefine" a simple to understand term because you're "confused" by it - because you don't like feeling like the horrible person you are.
Having racist views is not racism..
Yes. Yes it is. 100%.
acting upon them is
Acting on them is even worse but not acting upon them is still racist.

No it isn't. Only in your warped and twisted mind.

The only thing you've said of any note, which isn't utter nonsense in that entire post is this (and it's disputable):
..in an era of identity politics, every tom dick and harry group is claiming racism...jews..muslims..gypsies...any minority really .they are quite clearly not a race
So you DO understand it. Claiming racism isn't the same thing as being a victim of racism. But I don't accept that they are - muslims and gypsies are claiming discrimination (rightly so IMO). Judaism is inherently racist though, so I'll give you that. But claiming you're a race doesn't make you right, it just makes you an idiot.

Like confused little you, who is either A) not clever enough to understand a very simple and clear set of terms or B) is upset that you definitely are racist and are trying to redefine the terms so you fall outside of them.

But everyone knows you are. It's clear. Man up and admit what you are or, preferably, change.

One slight caveat, Gypsies, or rather "Travellers" do claim racism, even though they're not a distinct ethnic group. But just because a pikey wants to pretend they're unique doesn't mean they are.

Thought they were claiming discrimination. But hey ho. I did say that bit was the only part of Job's diatribe that was remotely arguable :)

I think @Scouse is on thin ice arguing which supposed "race" or "people" (i find it odd to put in any credible discussion) are legible to claim racism. Disgusting!

That is inadvertently being racist. So fuck you and your high horses.

Race and people are two completely separate terms and two completely different meanings.

Black African American atheist or Back Zimbabwean zoroastrian are the same race but different 'people'. Or white English protestant and American mormon...

Id like to point out my original remark was about watering down racism by calling it discrimination as an apology for inter ethnic racism...but still you went on to use that as an argument against me.

Why are we talking racism, when this thread is about men touching women or other men in bad places?

'racism' isn't being watered down in the slightest.

It's like we had some utopian time where there was the perfect time of the use of 'racism' or prejudice in general which is obviously bollocks, because people from ethnic minorities still face prejudice.

Just fucking admit it - you want it to be redefined so that you can get away with being discriminatory towards a ethnic minority without being told you're a twat.

Because Job derailed the thread with some load of bollocks about all discrimination is racism because racism doesn't exist. Or something. Who the fuck knows? Its all mad spiders in his head anyway.
