Padme is indeed a racist.

Without denying that Padme shows a somewhat disturbing reaction to the sandpeople slaughter, let's acknowledge that the two were very differnet incidents.

1: Sandpeople

Anakin is a teenager who, finding his mother tortured to death flips out and kills a bunch of people, including the guilty and the innocent.

2: Younglings.

Anakin is a grown man/husband/father of her child who, for reasons that are vague at best, willingly betrays everyone and everything he believes in and leads a military assault on his former friends, including in it the cold-blooded murder of children.
