If someone is racist, does that invalidate all of their other political opinions?

[Anonymous]

Logically, I don't think it does. Just because you are racist doesn't mean your views about abortion, homosexuality, tax-rates, Middle-East foreign policy, China policy, Covid lockdowns, etc are wrong.

Yes, all the political opinions of a racist must be wrong.

No, not necessarily. It depends on what the issue is.

You're wrong and your logic is worse.

If the person is nonchalant holding racist views, then you can bet your yellow ass they have the same biases in all their other views. i. e. in abortion they think only Blacks should be aborted, in homosexuality they think only Hispanics should be allowed it, in tax rates they think only Jews should be high taxed. etc etc.

Racists tend to be the worst of people, as they are conniving bastards.

Being a racist has nothing to do with their opinion on things. It is how they act and treat people not of their cultural background.

Thanks for the MHO :)

Of course not... Though, I wouldn't exactly look towards them for ethical wisdom on similarly related issues...

Don't hurt yourself trying to think. You're emotional, not logical. Go change your tampon.

My bad, I read that as "I think it does"

People can definitely be racists and have valid policy opinions.

No but typically racists are naturally moronic in nature

No, but if a racist is right about other social issues, there must be some serious cognitive disaonance going on.

Yes because their ideals are usually gonna only benefit them and they won't be looking out for the good of people

[Myk13]

No, it just makes them racist.
