My friend just got another ban

The support ticket said it was for racist behavior, but in the chat logs he only talks about Muslims, which is a religion not a race.

There are things that shouldn't be discussed.

Religion and Politics

If I'm online, I'm online for 4 reasons.

Gaming, Chatting, Commercial-Free Music and Television, and, last but certainly not least, Porn.

Yay porn.

Haters may or may not have noticed the quotation marks that indicate sarcasm.

Racist/Prejudice. This ban most likely falls under the second half of that, being prejudice. Being prejudice falls under the category of being against something in general, including religions, races/colors, nationalities, accents, and more.

Basically your friend was being a dick to someone, there's a chatlog of them being a dick to that person, and they got banned for it.

How to fix: Don't be a dick or express opinions so openly in what could be seen as prejudice. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Prejudice - preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience.

When it is based on reasoned extrapolation from previous actions and actual experience, it stops being prejudice.

No, then it's being based on a conceived and applied stereotype, which is just as bad. You're still pre-judging a broader scope of people based on your dealings with a few.

We are evolutionarily hardwired to make judgements using the best available data we have for our own survival.
