Anway, since apparently everyone missed it, I guess my point here wasn't quite as obvious as I thought it to be:
I don't think this comparison works with nazis lol.
Point was, africans back in the days didn't know any other race so they couldn't be racist. (Disliking a nearby tribe cannot really be considered as racist, since it's not two races.)
And the nazi comparison doesn't work because the nazis knew and hated other races which makes it a completely different matter.
Africans didn't know other races so they can't be racists. Nazis did know them and hated them so they can't be racists?
Sorry I'm really not following you.
I think scientists say there is no real scientific basis for race at all so I guess you could say technically there is no such thing as racism.
But hating, hurting, killing, and descriminating against people buy category is certainly a thing.
I think it's more important what the people involved think, in terms of race.
