Is the term "racist" misused on Y!A?

Sometimes the word racist is used wrongly. Such as if I dont like redheaded people, am I racist? Many people dont seem to know the real meaning of the word racist. You are not racist, for example if you dont like to eat cabbage

Yes, it is.

The term "racist" is also misused anywhere else, other websites and real life.

I'm black.

And I hear it misused way too often.

There's a big difference between 'racist' and 'prejudice'

We experience prejudice a lot in life.

Racism? Some too. But prejudice is way more common in the daily life.

In my view, racist now simply means that someone, usually someone non white, did not get their way. The same goes for sexist and so on. If the other side cannot get you to give in or agree with them or you knock their argument to pieces, then you are a bigot, racist, etc.

HYPOCRITE! IS IT? YOU TELL US...ON Y/A? ARE U OBSESSEDS WELL?
