Hey Hraesvelg.
Ahhh the age old question. Is pointing out the racist and stating that you hate them, being just as bad as they are because you are in essence hating a particular group of people because of who they are?
Anger and rage in itself are not evil, but what you do with that anger and rage is what can be determined as evil or good.
Take again the hate someone has for the racist, so they then turn that into a group to educate and spread understanding so the racist has no grounds to stand on. They form groups to help the less fortunate get back on their feet. And they speak out against the racist any time they can. They still hate the racist and don't want them to flurish. Are their actions good or evil.
Then look at the racist who burns down churches and commits acts of violence against others. Are their actions good or evil.
Remember that because of anger a new nation was born in order for all to have the right for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Not to mention cheaper tea.
