Saturday October 9th, 2009 What is absurd today?

This question posted on Yahoo! Answers is absurd:

Resolved Question

Show me another»

Okay, I hate black people, does that make me a racist?

I just don't like them, I don't really wanna kill them or anything. and it's not all black people that i hate, just those that talk ebonics and act annoying. but does that make me a racist or just prejudiced? or is this even natural?

*It is completely ridiculous that this person would actually hate people because of the way they speak and because some of them "act annoying". He or she clarifies that "it's not all black people", but why does he or she have to even specify skin color in the first place? The original question posted was, "Okay, I hate black people, does that make me a
racist?" and my answer to this question would be, "Yes, hating people because of the color of their skin is extremely racist, and it's absurd to think otherwise". I mean, what about white people who "talk ebonics and act annoying"? Do they get a free pass because they're white?
