merriam-webster: "a class or kind of people unified by shared interests, habits, or characteristics"
oxford english dictionary: "group of people sharing the same culture, history, language, etc.; an ethnic group"
To add on to this, the etymological chain of the word "race" places the meaning of "people with a common culture" before the meaning of "three/four main groups of people with shared physical characteristics including skin colour". A lot of people get this wrong and the definitions Stark posted are considered far more correct unless you're specifically speaking in a taxonomic context. If you're going to correct someone, at least be correct in correcting them and don't spread misinformation, people.

Time to call everyone who says anything bad about anime, christianity or beer. racist then. It's such a hollow term.
"The Oxford English Dictionary's first recorded utterance of the word racism was by a man named Richard Henry Pratt in 1902.
Pratt was railing against the evils of racial segregation.
Segregating any class or race of people apart from the rest of the people kills the progress of the segregated people or makes their growth very slow. Association of races and classes is necessary to destroy racism and classism.
Although Pratt might have been the first person to inveigh against racism and its deleterious effects by name, he is much better-remembered for a very different coinage: Kill the Indian...save the man.
"A great general has said that the only good Indian is a dead one," Pratt said. "In a sense, I agree with the sentiment, but only in this: that all the Indian there is in the race should be dead. Kill the Indian in him, and save the man.""
Although he did not coin it, he may have popularized it afterwards. Trotksy published What is National Socialism in June 1933.

Obviously the definition is vague, but you can't argue that racism only applies to people with a different skin colour LOL that's insane. Whether or not you even call it racism is totally arbitrary, it's discrimination and prejudice against a group of people based on stereotypes or negative generalisation.
Also you can't disparage the word racism or the term/definition based on the people who coined it. Their actions are separate to the word they created or used.

god reading through 4 pages of this was painful. After seeing a lot of ppl calling you out on how you like to spout shit and using your autism as a shield i honestly expected you to apologize for the times you did that by page 2 or 3, but it is exactly what you did the whole thread.
Apologize for being immature, dont shittalk anyone if you cant stand being shittalked to and stop using your sad backstory as a justifier for everything you do. It's not that hard, you can't expect everyone to suddenly be nice to you, you gotta change first.
and sorry but there's no way around it, you're an islamophobic bigot and you keep trying to justify your bigotry, people don't like that.

saamflufnI have lived with an autistic person all my life and the people who give them the most hate are the people that don't understand what being autistic is. They just don't realize how things are for you.
actually mental disorders aren't a get out of jail free card for acting like an asshole
Eh I don't know what sheepy has done just going off what he said

Racism and discrimination are not interchangeable.

Also sheepy, as a person that only knows you from tftv casts and is therefore completely unbiased, I tried defending you on page 1 of this thread.
After reading your replies on the next few pages my opinion did a 180°. You keep talking shit and then whining when people call you out on that shit. Either learn some humility, admit you're wrong and apologize or grow a pair and deal with the hate that you earned.

I don't think he's trying to be an asshole; people who have had good experiences with Sheepy on LAN could probably attest to this. You can tell that everytime he tries to make an opinion it's a huge wall of text with semi-coherent arguments. Critizing or chastising him isn't going to give him better reasoning skills which is what he actually needs to make community respectable opinions, so of course he's going to say things that don't add up or sound completely backwards which I think people here shouldn't take to heart like they have been. He's not intending it; he would probably even change his stance on Muslims if he just understood it more.

if tf2 is the only thing that you have you should probably start trying to make friends. Not everybody is an asshole and i'm sure you are able to find friends that enjoy the same thing you do. I have a lisp also, but when I get made fun off I shrug it off, because I can't change it so I have to accept it. For example your autism is something you can't change ether, and you knowing it is really good. So when a bunch of people in your beloved tf2 community get mad at you for not looking eye to eye on Isis/Muslims which are very different you should probably stop talking about it. YOU FUCKING AUTISTIC RETARED YOu ACTUALLY NEED TO STOP FUCKING POSTING IM GETTING AUTISM FROM YOU STUPID AUTISTIC SHIT FAGGOT RETARDED. I TRIED TO BE NICE BUT IM SO ANGRY. YOU FUCKING AUTIST STOP FUCKING POSTING. IF YOU FEEL BAD ABOUT THINGS YOU FUCKING SAID BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE CALLING YOU RETARDED, AND YOUR GETTING HATE YOU SHOULD PROBABLY STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. YOU SHOULD KNOW ITS YOUR AUTISM ACTING IN.
