Racial discrimination is the peak of 'asininity'.

Racial discrimination is asinine. Consider it closely. One human being allegedly claiming to be 'superior' to the Other. To be sure all human beings have the same 'functions', but different human 'ways' of interpreting and relating to the 'world' outside her/his skin. In such interpretations and relations, we are 'different', i.e. we have different 'personalities', different 'likes' and 'dislikes', and have different 'possessions'; i.e. we have 'more' or 'less' of these possessions, and last, but not least, 'have' different quantities of 'money'. These so-called 'differences' are said to create a belief system in different classes of human beings. There lies your social classes! Every single characteristic that determines the social class is 'un-human'. (I have to use that term, because that's the only opposite term of human.) Also, most of these characteristics relate to the economy, namely, to the Capitalistic values of 'profits', 'possessions' and 'position' of 'class', and 'influence' and also of 'education'. But, notice the emphasis on 'possessions' and 'money', and notice how the possession of these 'products', facilitates the further acquisition of 'more of the same'. Hey, the 'true value' of a democracy is the Freedom and Equality that one can enjoy. What 'good' are all these possessions, if one is sick or cannot function as a 'human being'? You ask, "and what would that be"? Just 'function' within the 'condition of togetherness' in a 'democratic way', i.e. in a Free and Equal 'manner' as a human being. I hate to disillusion anyone out there, but when 'push comes to shove', 'possessions', 'money', and 'classes of all kinds', are not going to make a bit of difference. Every 'human' being is just as 'human' as every Other 'human being', and to make social distinctions on the 'simplistic' basis of 'Race', or possessions is just, 'not to get it'. 'You' don't get it.
