If you hated everyone equally, would you still be considered a racist?
I'm curious. It's not that I hate anyone. Except for Smuffs.

If you hated everyone equally, regardless of their race, and your hate wasn't connected with their race, then no, you wouldn't be a racist, just a misanthrope.

Not quite sure what a smuff is, but that's a good question. I suppose you still would be a racist if you hate everyone equally because of their race, regardless of what it is.
Now if you just plain old hate everybody, you likely wouldn't be a racist. Just crazy. And alone.

you recognize that you'll only hate as deeply as you could love and vice-versa. i imagine worry is a important rationalization for racism. Felt both by skill of the racist and the race. I PRAY sometime this gained't exist. i imagine the only answer to racism will come at the same time as each person are blended thoroughly. Then there'll no man or woman to be prejudice hostile to. on the different hand, there is the different aspect of that proverbial coin.

Nope, you would be a misanthropist.
A "racist" is someone who ascribes qualities to others and evaluates them based upon their race, which itself is an ambiguous term.

As long as the hatred was based on the person themselves and not on any trait or characteristic
