By extension it follows that racism is only one of many ism’s that emerge from the maladaptive behaviour. We call it racism because the particular focus is the human construct of race but I would contend that antisemitism, sexism, ageism, disablism, homophobia and transphobia are all different foci for the same thing. We really ought to have a name for the inciting socio-psychological maladaptation and seek to treat the root as well as the specific problem.
