The racist is unable to acknowledge the levels of creativity and autonomy involved in generation of cultural dialects. He knows that those who can do those things, coin new words and phrases, are his superiors, but he can't deal at all well with that reality. Another failure of the racist which is obvious, albeit not to him, is that he himself uses terms which were originated by people no different from those he erroneously despises. Notice how the racist, in his inferiority and cowardice, hides from the facts presented to him. His weakness and incapacity drive his desperation to pretend that those who innovate linguistically would somehow be less than truly superior to him. The racist, with his inferior 'mind', prefers to be told lies in stilted language to being informed of truths in dynamic terms. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/main.jhtml?xml=/education/2004/06/30/teflang26.xml&sSheet=/education/2004/06/30/ixteleft.html Notice that the racist is unable to understand the dynamics of language. Shakespeare, too, was criticized for using new and different terms. The fearful and ignorant, such as the racist, are seen throughout history as desperate to censor that which they are unable to understand: http://digital.library.upenn.edu/books/banned-books.html
