    The problem is that almost all of the Cardassians we see are actively participating Space Nazis.

    It’s just like how people are biased against toothbrush mustaches today because they’re associated with Hitler. You don’t have to think the toothbrush mustache is ugly in itself to choose not to have one, due to its historical connection to a bad person.

    It’s not that people dislike the Cardassian race, even though they are an unappealing color and by most reckonings, they smell bad. It’s wrong to suggest that somebody is racist just because every time they see a spoonhead, they’re reminded of all of the horrible things Cardassians have done on behalf of their government.

      romulans seem more racist/xenophobic than cardassians, since they are so much more secretive than the cardassians, which is pratically willing to trade/negotiate to rebuild thier civilization,.
