In my experience, they are. [confused on basic matters of fact]. Could you provide a counterexample?

You could call me a proto-racist in that I think that some races are more intelligent than others, more civilized, more violent, while still very much human.

There are no confusions of fact between me and someone who hates people of "lesser" races, only a lack of compassion.

While I'm going to have to disagree with you on a point of fact there, (is that inherently less civilized? Whatever, we're getting off topic.) I note that someone who agrees with you but argues for, say, racial warfare or whatever, is likely under the impression that these natural differences between races are likely to jeopardise White civilization, and/or believes that these differences are more drastic than you do.
