I tend to just say as casually and non-confrontationally as possible "I don't agree with that because _____" (inserting one-sentence summary of what I think.) This happens to me constantly at work.

I would limit such a statement to once per conversation probably, but it usually tends to put the kibosh on the blind prejudice for a short time at least.
