It irritates me when people say blanket things like this and while you hopefully don't mean it that way it is often put around that way. If you cannot discriminate between people on any basis then you are reduced to making random samples from the population or some other ridiculous method. Discrimination is a necessity, people are not identical. It is not always bad.

I'll make an exaggerated example. Say someone wants to go play for an Australian sporting team. The selectors say no, your ball skills are crap, but no that's discrimination based on their ball skills, then no you are not big/strong enough, no but thats discrimination on body type, then no you are a man and this is a female team, no that's sex discrimination, then no you are 100 years old and you will suck and potentially die, but no thats age and health discrimination. Clearly discrimination is necessary, and as mentioned above that includes racial discrimination.
