For example, very few people hate black people because they are black. Meaning, the color of their skin, per se, isn't the reason why people don't like blacks.

People don't like the characteristics that are often associated with blacks, such as violence, lower IQ, etc.

But, to judge an individual based on traits associated with the group is racist. For example, to say "I hate blacks because they're all violent." This is just stupid, there are obviously many blacks who aren't violent.

That is reasonable. You're playing a numbers game, with the odds stacked heavily. It'd be dumb to ignore the odds, but it'd also be dumb to say you can't be wrong

Exactly, for example in my experience and due to my location I have a fair amount of it, African people tend to be low intelligence and fairly impulsive, this has been reinforced probably thousands of times at this point. I would be stupid to ignore that information, now I'm not saying that makes them bad people what I am saying is that I know at the moment one guy in particular that comes to mind he is a black dude, he works as a handy man, he has been shown how to deal with certain electronics multiple times like at least 50 times, still escapes him. However the dude is strong as hell, if you need something moved and he likes you he'll come fucking move it 500lb object he'll move it, so not the brightest guy I'd probably not trust him around my kids alone but I'd still say he is a solid guy.

In b4 this comment gets me crucified on poal lol
