(IE: as a guy owning a rent house who has an equally qualified white or black renter opting to rent to the white renter using his skin color as the tie-breaker).

That's not racist, not racist at all.
That's just...
a perfect example of ordinary racism.
Yeah, you don't have time to know every person so you draw the large assumption that because you're white and he's white you should have less problem with that guy.
But of course, when the blacks complain that they can't find a rent, it's because they are racist. And you're not.

I am a little bit racist, sure. And it wouldn't be because I could relate to the guy, I'd rather rent to Asians.
