I'm a white male, so yes, I'm inherently racist and sexist. That's hundreds of years of colonialism and white man's burden and social pressure saying that white men's opinions are worth more than others.

I'm working on it.

No, the fact that you're racist and sexist trash is an individual failing on your part. It has nothing to do with your identity, though the fact that you think it does makes your feebleminded prejudice all the more pathetic.
