Someone with a tendency towards racist generalisations might start disliking a particular group due to the zeitgeist identifying "disliking the behaviour of a political entity" with "disliking all members of an ethnic group", though. If they previously didn't hold any such views, then they would go from "not racist" to "racist". (If you disagree with my category boundaries, you can construct your own similar example for your preferred category boundaries.)
Just because something's wrong, that doesn't mean it's illogical. A logical conclusion from flawed premises is still logical.
Why are they racist? I assume you're not saying that some people are born racist, and other people are born anti-racist.
