Discrimination:

the state of being able to see a difference between two people or things.

Those who are discriminating (also called ‘discerning’) are particularly sensitive to the properties that make for a better friend, or a better film, and they select accordingly. The approving use of the word ‘discriminate’ to describe such people has not died out. Today, however, the word ‘discriminate’ and its cognates are much more often used disapprovingly. ‘That’s discriminatory’ is a common way to condemn the treatment of some person or people. Some writers on the subject diagnose a conceptual shift. They say that what we mainly talk about now is discrimination in a new sense.

An alternative view is that the negative valence of the word ‘discrimination’ belongs to the pragmatics of discrimination talk, not the semantics. Compare ‘democratic’, a word that today is widely used to convey approval of a political system. If I react to such use by saying that democracy has no redeeming features, I may be a poor judge of political systems, but it does not follow that I have a poor grasp of what other people are talking about when they talk about democracy. They can all use the word approvingly without any implication that it cannot also be used disapprovingly. Likewise, if I ask ‘What’s so bad about discrimination?’, intending to convey the contrarian view that nothing is ever bad about discrimination, I may be a moral imbecile, but it doesn’t follow that I am changing the subject.

To discriminate is to treat someone or something that (supposedly) has property p differently, doing so for the (supposed) reason that he or she or it (supposedly) has property p.
