I've had enough interactions here to know that a decent number of white Mainers are uncomfortable around POC. So some of the time? Sure. The downvotes are a great way of telling who's who.

Seriously???

Not smiling at me while doing mundane tasks = Racist Downvoting me = Racist

Are there racists in many places across the country? Absolutely. But your criteria for classifying someone as a racist smacks of irony. You're accusing people of making judgments about you based on appearance. How is what you're doing any different?
