no my racism is well informed, meticulously researched and sourced.

Believe me, I wish I didn't know what I know.

Ben Carson. Thomas Sowell. Walter Williams. Hodge Twins. Candace Owens. Clarence Fucking Thomas. Just "black," amirite?

No - it's fucking ignorance. A little knowledge is dangerous; a lot clears things up. Racism is the presumption, among other stupidities, that behavior is race-based, rather than cultural. The evidence is right in front of you, and you have to ignore it to sustain the ignorance.

The existence of tall women doesn’t change the fact that as a group women are shorter than men.

That's true. It's also true that the existence of short women, or an average, doesn't tell you anything at all about the height of a specific women. More to the point, height is genetic, modified by nutrition and occasionally mutation. Conduct isn't. Hence, your analogy is stupid.
