Showing a preference of one thing to something else. Urban Dictionary

To give preference to one thing over another. Urban Dictionary

Someone who is against racism towards specific racial group(s) they like, but also advocates for and/or encourages racism against different particular racial group(s) they don't like. The preferential racist tries to hide behind the fact they are against racism only partially as long as it is towards racial groups they prefer, and in doing so they think they are somehow granted special privileges that make it okay for them to be racist towards racial groups they don't prefer. Additionally they will often use nonsense mental gymnastics and fallacious reasoning to blame the problems of racial group(s) they like on the racial groups they don't like as a way to disguise and legitimize their racism. They are hypocrites and ironically, racist. Urban Dictionary
