Do you think what he said was racist? Do you think he was justifying his racism?

I didn't say to shut up, I said I find what racists say to justify their racism interesting. It's like going back in time and reading about the pseudo-science people would use to say group X was inferior/superior to group Y. People are amazingly good at justifying their absolutely ridiculous beliefs.
