You don't understand this question?:

How do you define race and what traits qualify as race-based?

I don't know. I swear, I really don't.

OK, so you don't know what race is. I thought you would have known what race is before accusing people of being racist, but you don't. You seem to have been outraged about people judging others by skin color, so I know you use at least that as a criteria. I can understand that, since that is just a color, but what about the other factors many may be referring to, when they say they are proud to be a racist, or dislike certain things, or many things, about a given race? Here are some definitions of race I found:

a group of persons related by common descent or heredity.

a human population partially isolated reproductively from other populations, whose members share a greater degree of physical and genetic similarity with one another than with other humans.

any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race.

Using the definitions above, if one can identify a group of people that qualify as a race, while disliking a certain aspects of their culture, is it necessarily or inherently wrong to dislike it? Let's substitute the Dutch race in the example above.

What if I disliked the Sample Race, or had problems with them based upon their race? While there are of course exceptions, generally, due to their culture, let's say that I frown upon their values, practices, and behaviors and my experiences with them all pan out to validate that view.

Do I necessarily deserve to have a negative term attached to me for my personal views? What if what I dislike is based upon their racial traits and it is true?

Sure, we are all individuals, but is it reasonable to find many generalizations true enough about many groups of people? Ranging from Italians that were off the boat and came out of the Great Depression, to Jewish people in Beverly Hills, to young Black people in certain towns by me?
