This doesn’t look like any kind of “new” racism to me, dude. Looks like the old kind.
I do think, though, that any idea of equality that is not based on a transcendental idea is a bad thing, in the long run. The oldest argument against equality, and one which is absolutely unassailable (because as far as it goes it’s true), is “But people are not equal.”
Some people are stronger.
Some are faster.
Some are smarter.
Statistically, by the way, we can say that some groups are smarter or faster or stronger than others. It seems wrong (well, not to me, but I have no expectations), but it is true.
Any idea of equality that is based, as yours is, on the idea that groups are equal in things like intelligence, is doomed to failure: because it isn’t true. At any given moment, some groups will be better in some areas than other groups. That’s how statistics work.
And yet, I say, they’re all equal. Because they are humans. All members of a class are fundamentally equal to all other members of that class. No other kind of equality exists in the world, except the equality of humanity. None of those other things matter.
Think, if you can, of humanity as an aristocracy. In every historical aristocracy, there have been members who have been poor, or weak, or sickly: but they were still members of that class. A penniless umbrella-maker ronin is still a samurai. A half-mad hermit whose only possession is his sabre is still a szlechta. In the same way, all humans, no matter how weak or ignorant or foolish or prone to alcoholism, are still members of that aristocracy.
Once you understand that, and make a set of laws that applies to any and all members of that aristocratic class (in this case humans), you will no longer have to worry about racism–or worse, about the demonstrable, provable inequalities between groups. Nobody would say, “Well, since you’re kind of ugly, you don’t have the rights of a samurai, so let’s take your swords away.” Similarly, nobody can in conscience say, “Well, since you currently do poorly, as a group, on standardized testing, you don’t have the rights of a human, so let’s sterilize you.” It’s the easily falsifiable idea that people are equal in traits like intelligence or strength, that allows there to be a challenge to the idea that they are equal in value. Your argument for equality is based on a bad premise; disprove that premise and you disprove equality. Mine is based on the indisputable: humans are humans.
