While the aim may not have been to racially abuse people, the term refers to race and is generally considered a racist term, and the context of its use was utterly bizarre.

No worse than inbreeds etc which is regularly used to describe for example, fans of a certain county teams/people from certain counties, fans of a certain type of music and such like.

Inbreds is not a racist term. I would suggest that half-caste which is certainly a racist term is a much more similar comparison.

We'll have to agree to disagree. IMO they're all similar apart from half cast which has obvious explicit overtones.

Half-breed is a term, now considered derogatory, used to describe anyone who is of mixed race, though it usually refers to people that are half Native American and half European or white.[1] Half-breed is the English version of the French word "métis".

If I called any someone of mixed race in England a 'half breed' they'd probably wonder a) why I was in the 1970s and b) punch myface in. IIt's clearly a racist term.

i got in a scuffle once a fortnight for this when I first moved there. Being called a Paddy by some thick Cockney with Chelsea/wet spam / Millwall tattoos drove me nuts. I have to say when I mobed on to using vocabulary they struggled to understand was a far more satisfying experienc .

As for the term half breed, have generally only come across it regarding US politics or as an implication that someone in your family had been impregnated by an animal

Roy Race was a  top striker for Melchester Rovers.   He had some sayings that he used to funnily enough say.

Would they be known as Racisms?  OR Racist?

Anyone like them pink yokes? What are they called??? Oh yeah. Scampi. No wait. Eh.. prawn coctails.
