    They have a simplistic tit-for-tat moral code and ignore the relative degree of contempt telegraphed by different ethnic slurs. Trouble seems to find this sort of person wherever they are. They tend to not be very bright. They will not accept your advice. Best to move on.

      The alternatives are limited to “my group is always right” and “I pick one aspect and ignore all others, and the one aspect is always arbitrarily chosen, and when the comparison kinda equals, the result is arbitrarily chosen”. If you have any to add, you are welcome.

      And the word “simplistic” is usually used by people unable to defend their position with actual points. It’s kinda useless otherwise.
