Racism when used as a negative
I've never heard it used as a positive, and for good reason. There's nothing positive about thinking that a pigment in one's skin alters one's behavior or character. It's so incredibly dumb (especially in this age of medical knowledge), I'm still to this day baffled that anyone who isn't severely mentally challenged can be a racist.

Racism...implies a morally reprehensible mindset. Base hatred, discrimination, violence, ignorance, that type of thing. None of which apply to me.
Well at least two of those descriptions fit you. Discrimination: check (you judge a person of color as inferior, inherently criminal, lazy / dumb / deserving to be poor). Ignorance: check.
I think if you introspect, you'll find hatred within you as well. Hatred is the reason you fill in the gaps of your knowledge with such terrible assumptions about groups of people, and are so confident in doing so. Hatred is the only way an otherwise non-******ed person can hold such idiotic beliefs as yours. Irrational thoughts are usually a result of emotions (such as hatred), whether conscious or unconscious, clouding one's judgment.

These are families living in terror we are talking about. People who don't have the funds to leave the ghettofication of their neighborhoods.
Aw, poor them. So pearl-clutchingly terrifying, a bunch of different-looking people coming to their cities. Meanwhile, the refugees are fleeing actual terror and running for their lives from ISIS and bombs, but I guess that's not important since they're racially inferior and their lives are worth less? See, even if you somehow lack hatred, your racism is producing the same result as hatred: "Screw the refugees, let them all rot!"
