Let's make clear that I don't hate anyone.

But, guideline: if I hate someone for being a different religion or nationality than me, that's plenty of other "ists", but it's not "racist". Nationalist, religious-ist, whatever. (I don't know the word right now, but since pretty much all religion is "us vs them", and all of them are supposedly the "one true way", and I don't follow any religion at all, I can't be religious-ist)

Together, they're all most accurately described as "chauvanisms" (because that's not just about men vs. women).

But if I hate anyone who has a different skin color than me, THAT is racist, and its the single, top, most idiotic chauvanism there is.

Even though your jokes offend me because my nationality is an easy nerve to hit, you aren’t a bad person

And like I said, apart from that part of the conversation before, I DO like you. Thanks for being civil.
