[net.politics] are racists logical?

The racist propaganda I've seen are as logical as any other kind.  Typical
racist logical reasoning:

	Major premise: inferior races should be killed off.
	Minor premise: X is an inferior race.
	Conclusion:	 X should be killed off.

Any argument that emphasizes logic more than observation is suspect.
Have you noticed that most of the serious debate in net.politics is
over what is really happening, not what follows logically?
