He's sabotaging people by denying them work they could use to improve their lives based on something as silly as skin color.
Theres time to ignore shit and theres time to do something simple like alerting his superior to what hes doing.
edit: lol, it actually is! But, I'm too drunk to be pissy. I'm just poking at you via words like you're doing, but I'm playing PC advocate.

I work with a bunch of racists, and it's pretty disheartening.
On the other hand, I love offensive humor, and they eat up all my racist/sexist jokes.
It really does get kinda lame hearing that shit all the time. Doesn't effect me too much, but I don't really like having that shit floating in my brain-basket.

I gave my advice and I wouldn't of suggested it if it wasn't something I myself would do. Unlike what many people believe, "karma" doesn't just happen. Someone along the line puts it into play, so to speak, and doesn't tolerate another person's intolerance, ignorance or arrogance. Its up to you on whether you want to be the one that gets the ball rolling.
Its in your hands now, or not if you choose to ignore it. 
Also, just to put this out there, karma is what was accumulated in your past life and what causes all the misfortunes and troubles you face in this life. What you do in this life effects the karma of your next life. At least, according to traditional meaning of karma.

Yeah I work with a guy like that. I get to listen to all the Rush and Beck talking points every morning. Then he drops priceless things like "I'm not racist, I just don't like black people."

Doesn't phase me. I'm not racist and don't agree with it. But I hear way more racist shit coming from black people than white people. So yeah it's wrong, but I personally wouldn't really care if I heard it.

I would guestimate that 80% of the racists I've worked with were no better than anyone else at their jobs.

Ok I believe discrimination is ignorant as fuck, but honestly who cares what that redneck says. Getting him fired won't change the fct that he is racist, and you think that he is the only racist you'll have to associate with at a job? Don't think so. I mean it sucks that you have to put up with it, but ignorance is everywhere so you might as well just be confident in your beliefs and let others live with blindfolds on. Idk maybe I am just used to it living in the Bible Belt/Southeast.

God damn, tolerating racism like some of you guys are suggesting is one good reason why racism like the OP stated is still rampant. I say you tell his superior, not just your co-workers. What TTT said is a great idea. I'd tell the guy i was raised by black parents and he's gonna get his face smashed if he keeps that shit up..just for the lolz, of course.

Well I said I don't agree with it. Meaning in my mind it's not ok. But racism is a petty problem that gets more attention than it deserves. There will always be racists, no reason in getting offended by it anymore, it's not getting any better, and it probably won't.
Besides, I've learned not to care about it anymore also because of the fact that it's apparently so much worse if a white person is racist rather than a black person.
In my opinion making fun of ugly or stupid people is just as bad as racism, but ugly and stupid people get discriminated all the time. Sooo..I don't care about racism anymore.
