A racist is someone who judges a person based on the trends of the person’s race.
Ex. “Blacks commit more crime, you’re black, therefore you are a criminal.”
Sexism is the same thing; judging one man based on the general trends of all men as a whole and judging one woman based on the general trends of all women as a whole.
Conclusion: Judging any individual based on the general trends of the individual’s group is always stupid. There are always outliers to trends. You cannot know a person based on trends; you can only judge a person based on the person themselves. You can make guesses based on trends, but that’s it.
Racism and sexism are simply some of the more common forms of judging-based-on-group-trends.
Racism and sexism are not evil positions; they’re ignorant positions.
