What about a "Racist4", someone who assign different moral values to people of different races all other things being equal?

Based on a couple interviews I've seen with unabashed Racist3s, I think that they would tend to fulfill that criterion.

Edit: Requesting clarification for downvote?

Depends if the differences in assigned moral values are large enough they can easily approach Nazi pretty quickly. As a thought experiment consider how many dolphins would you kill to save a single person?

That would be a paleo-nazi. Not many of them around, anymore, and those that are don't get away with much.

Why make up a new word? Paleoconservatives and smarter white nationalists (think Jared Taylor ) seem to often fit the bill.
