Why is making racist comments a ban-able offense, out of curiosity?

I was just curious as to why a racist comment was a ban-able offense over something like a sexist comment. Not complaining - I recognize/accept the maturity of the average user around here, and I realize it comes with the territory. Genuinely just curious what the rationale behind it is.

Cue no crust jokes.

Kind of what I was thinking. Tons of sexist comments too (cue the crust jokes). Not complaining… I recognize the maturity level of most of the site… I was just genuinely curious as to what the judgement was as to when something was over the line.

LOL, IDK it shouldn’t be but it seems the racism is a touchier subject, and although he was obv. kidding, I believe the comment started with “F-ing blacks” HaHa so lets not go there again.

lol, yeah, I totally get it’s a touchier subject. I am hugely interested in “human nature” and the reasons behind people’s choices - that’s the only reason I ask, not looking to stir up any debates as I’m… well… not debating.
