And when you stereotype someone, it's inherently othering, because what you're doing is saying, "I don't need to get to know you, because I can already guess what you are, and if you disagree with my guesses you're just being difficult." It's deindividuating and - yes - racist.

One of the hardest lessons I learned as an adult, was that intent has no bearing on effect. We cannot demand the empathy of others to see our intentions if we don't first grant them the empathy of honoring their experience. It is hard, but mandatory.
