So my bestfriend has become a racist...

Oh we all know only white people can be racist silly /sarcasm.
Seriously though, stuff like that bugs the hell out of me. I'd follow what RBZ said, people don't change over night though, I'd try and get as much information about it as I could. Maybe have a talk with his other friends/parents?

Bro sounds like hes in a cult, you can either deal with it and ignore whatever BS he spews or you can cutt all ties with him if this persists.It could also be a phase. If he starts wrist cutting, then we have a problem.
im hoping its a phase, i dont wanna cut him off but i cant just ignore it, when we out chillin i cant have him mean muggin and disrespecting every white person we come in contact with, and i cant be associated with a racist either.
Yeah its never fun dealing with people who are serious about racism and not just
Its really awkward being around them, not to mention its awkward...
Just dont be racist and dont follow his lead and hopefully he will grow out of it.

Are you sure he's not Nation of Islam? Because all those things you've said, aside from him denying it, sound like NoI dogma.

Try talk him out, but if you're sure that he's into something bad... being a whistle-blower wouldn't be an unfriendly move.

Oh boy... Just tell him that you value his friendship, but you can't condone his views and racist ideas. If he can't give them up or hold them in around you, I'd say it's over.What she said. I'm not gonna lie, the chances of him giving up his ideals for his friendship with you are pretty low, but don't break it off until you've tried everything. We all need to grow up and face the fact that we all suck equally, and move on.

Sounds like some kind of cult to me. you may have to capture him for deprograming. if he is truely your best friend, cutting ties is not even an option. learn as much as yu can about what he's into, and look for some professional help.

From my past experience, I would say that cutting yourself off entirely might be a bad idea. People go through weird phases sometimes, but when that happens, it's important to distance yourself somewhat. Don't just say that what they're doing is okay. Make it clear that some of their philosophies and outlooks are upsetting to you, but don't be too forceful about it.
The best you can do is hope that they grow out of it. If it continues for too long, you should seriously consider full-on confronting them about it.

And that's life: unfair and fucked up.Just do what you already plan to do, and try to talk him out of it, but at this point, if the shit he's saying is really that crazy, he's lost (not to mention he thinks god is backing him up). Come in with low expectations and be prepared to cut ties with him if his douchebaggery persists.
You don't really ask anything, so I'll assume you want advice.
