Well, everyone is a racist to an extent.
In all honesty I find it interesting that society has seemingly decided to move to the extremes in a number of different facets over the years rather than finding a more moderate approach to things. What I mean by this is that you have those that get offended easily and look for ridiculous ways to create a protective bubble around themselves. Then you have those that they are trying to protect themselves from that tend to not care about respecting other people just because they are people.
I personally just like the idea of showing respect. I falter with it sometimes, no one is perfect, but that's just my goal. Respect other people because we all deserve to be treated with respect.
