Interesting that this gets mentioned in a thread on bigotry. You could quite reasonably argue that supporting only ASCII (or one specific ISO-8859 encoding) is racist, as it makes your system friendly towards people like yourself (who speak only your language), but unfriendly towards people of other cultures, particularly Asian ones.
