Or you know, being black in Mississippi in 1869.

I don't know about 1869, but this film from 1870 Mississippi makes it seem like a happy and fun place.

Is there really much difference between saying the two, anyway?

Yes.

Preston Manning once said "a bright light attracts a few moths".  I have no problem with the assertion that some racists have, from time to time, attached themselves to the libertarian movement.  Any political movement will attract the occasional nutjob.

But Raz wants to go further, and to say that racism is somehow inherent to the movement or to the ideology itself.

I would say it is somewhere in between. Libertarian ideology is not inherently racist but it is more attractive to racists that some other ideologies that are considered mainstream (such as liberalism or socialism).
