People Just Naturally Like Those who are Similar

I got into a little discussion with someone here over what so many like to call "racism". As I pointed out to him:

You can't seriously expect everyone to like everyone else; that's not going to happen. It's a part of human nature to like those who are similar to us, and treat with suspicion those who aren't.

And I'm right. You may not personally like that fact, but it's true nevertheless, and there is nothing objectively wrong about that.

The problem is in what people deem as racism now. The lines are getting blurred and now it’s racism to dislike someone or their way of life.

@DisappearingTide Yes, the very definition of "racism" has changed over time, and to such an extent that no one seems to even know what it means anymore.
