Irvingchang: you are completely wrong. There are DEGREES of racism, of course. But racism contains not only supremacists (which is like the ultimate racism), but also demeaning or making judgements about others exclusively based on race. You don't have to hate anyone to be "racist." Racism is a discourse of power, and as such it can be utilized by anyone. Just like sexism is not merely the belief that men are "better" than women. Get it?
