Sure, depending on the context and example. Stereotyping Americans as trailer trash? Not gonna OK that one. Not as close to your very cute "textbook racism" as you made it seem, but not "fine." Too bad there wasn't some middle ground between the two far-apart options. Oh well.
But stereotyping is also necessary quite often for fairly innocent means. That is how marketing to target demographics, insurance premiums, and age-based requirements work, for example.
Anyways, back to reflecting, or talking about reflecting, or whatever you doin.
