You're redefining the word intentionally. You might as well say that children affiliating with their parents is racism. It isn't. You admit this yourself by confusing the word "race" with "ethnic group".

Even among people who have a strong ethnic preference, it certainly is not the case that it is you default to an ingroup preference of a race over ethnicity, and ethnicity over familiarity. An American white is not likely to affiliate with a non-English Russian who shares no religion, value set, language, or economic tie; compared to the American black neighbor he went to school with, speaks the same language, and has the same religion.

Racism is not that ethnic groups have an in-group preference, you are trying to re-define your way into winning an argument like a Leftist. It isn't even that racial groups have an in group preference.

Racism is where you have people who have specific hatred or fear of another race (or for some reason their own) as a racial collective.

like a Leftist

This is your biggest tell, btw.

How do you win an argument with a conservative? Call him a racist!

What if he doesn’t care about being called a racist? Call him a leftist.

Oh gee, oh no, I’m a leftist? I’m a socialist? I’d better cuck to gay civnat suicide!

Then admit that you are a socialist and that everything you think, do, say, plan, and act out is guaranteed to fail at the cost of everyone you claim to be helping.

Don't cry to me about being a socialist because you don't like the term. Actually fucking use the term that was invented for you and stop being a coward. "I'm a nationalist!" No, you're fucking not.

So your "it's culture" comment falls flat. Because yes that's the neo-lib conventional wisdom but historically it isn't accurate. And the times it HAS been accurate. It's been modern and exclusive to Whites.

I'm not even editorializing on this point. Conclude what you will.
