The title should actually be, "without scientific evidence"

It is an idiotic, Bbwianesque notion to say the title, with or "without scientific evidence".
Beauty is a social contruct without scientific evidence. As are most human value judgement. Even science is a social construct. The idea that something is a social construct is itself, of course, a social construct.

There are evident differences between individiual, groups, races, nations etc. That human perception discerns differences is NOT a social construct. What judgement to make of the various inherent differences between things and people is endlessly debatable. Which difference is more important, which difference is irrelevant - none of these are based on scientific evidence because science carries no inherent value in itself. It is a method, nothing else.

The usually pejorative terms "racist" or "racism" each have too many
subtle variations of semantics in their usage, making for a difficult,
non-emotive debate.

As a lifelong atheist, I despise the religion of Islam, and radical Muslims.

Does that make me an ethno-religious racist?

Yes and no.

Is this a scientific question? No. It is a moral question.
Is the moral judgement of atheism and antipathy towards Islam a scientifically assessable judgement? No. Is adherence to Islam a scientific act? Not any more than its rejection.

Are you, nevertheless judged to be a ethno-religious racists by the Bbwians of this wrld? Yes. Is Bbwian's a scientific judgement? No.

As usual we only see half the story, Soren but hey, what else have we come to expect from Racists and Islamopobes? Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

Show us the other half of these stories, Bbwian.

Show us white kids beating up a black kid.

And there's the other half of the story - a big Bbwianesque, mindless, moronic yawn.

Yawn is all Bbwian can provide as the other half of the story.

And it is exactly right - gate openers to the barbarians like Bbwian have absolutely no justification for their self-made treachery. Ask them and they yawn.

The enemy within - pudgy, stupid, incoherent yet all- pervasive.

Racism is generally bad. It denigrates people, it discriminates people, all on the socially constructed ideal that White people are best, they are the greatest. The reality is, they aren't. They are just as venal, just as greedy, just as rapacious, just as corrupt, as everybody else. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

That's a pretty negative way to talk about yourself. You're white aren't you?

Just lately it's been the Palestinians and the Jews over Gaza. Brian backed away from that issue, "I've got nothing more to discuss with you", he said

It was the Muslims and Hindus last year, re: Blacktown Local Council getting something wrong that caused the two to nearly come to blows
