So I am a racist? Because I don’t like the leadership of this president and believe Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to be charlatans? And I think Whoopi Goldberg should stick to comedy and rap is possibly the worst example of “artistic expression” ever pushed off on the gullible youth of America? And because something tells me that Eric Holder is a bully and many black administration officials are themselves racist as well? So what is wrong with racism and being a racist when --to paraphrase Thomas Jefferson --“we are all racists, we are all Americans? (well at least most of us are!). Just admit being the racist that you are because the word, like race itself, has no meaning.

I’m a racist! (using that definition)

No one I know has ever said anything derogatory about a black person within my hearing, but scarcely a day goes by that I don’t hear some black make a racist statement on television.

A BIG reason dunham didn’t release his birth certificate was he used it as leverage. One, he felt he didn’t need to because only the white guy needed to, and TWO, if you asked for his birth certificate, he could then call you racist. Just check what’s happening now when peeps ask for his college records, whoopi/letterman etc then call you racist for asking. Meanwhile Bush and others have released their records. Thanks to Trump for flushing out dunhams certificate, now go for the other records the commie is withholding.

I wasn’t born or convinced by someone else to be a racist. What turned me into a racist was a continuing day after day witness of actions by some people. Maybe I watched the 5:00 pm news too much. I wasn’t a racist at five years old but I was getting there by ten. I was most definitely one at fifteen. But ....and here is my big point. I am not a racist against all races. I am a racist against one race and yet there are people of that race who I most definitely love. It would be more accurate to say I am a racist of a sub species in that one particular race.

When black people start giving a damn about ending racism, so will I.
In America, there are millions of black people being brainwashed to hate white people more than they love their children.....

I starve children while forcing them to rape rainforests.

I know the big money is in racism. I just love working with the kids.

Leftists really hate it when you hold up a mirror to their face.

All their “race” based programs are premised on the assumption that, without the help of the “good” people on the left, “minorities” don’t have the ability to succeed.

I tell lefties I know that I’m a such a racist that I greatly admire Thomas Sowell, eagerly await like a kid a Christmas, for the next article by Walter Williams, pray that Herman Cain runs for president and will actively campaign for Michael Williams for the Texas US Senate Seat.

Of course only the curious lefties will actually Google these guys and get my sarcasm. The rest think I’m a Nazi.

Sincerely and with the deepest contempt,

1. Reading that is like looking in a toilet bowl that hasn't been flushed in a while. n/t

[Initech]

25. It's more like the Poo Cocktail Supreme from the Jackass movies.

[MrScorpio]

2. It kept on raining...

Now the levee finally broke.

[The Midway Rebel]

3. Why bring this shit here?

What is the pleasure in wrestling with pigs?

[cali]

5. I happen to think that freepers should be called out on their racism

and a record of it kept. it's described as being a conservative discussion site when it's nothing but a site for bigots.

[guitar man]

10. there's a difference?

:shrug:

[MineralMan]

4. Sorry, but reading that crap is unnecessary to know the truth

of it.

[hfojvt]

6. so you hate them for being hateful?

What does the word racist mean? It sure seems to get thrown about casually at the slightest pretext.

What was racist in his little essay except for the suspicion that many black people are racist? How is that suspicion more racist than the suspicion on the left that many white people are racist?


"Because I don’t like the leadership of this president" - not racism

"and believe Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to be charlatans?" - not racism

"And I think Whoopi Goldberg should stick to comedy" - not racism

"and rap is possibly the worst example of “artistic expression” ever pushed off on the gullible youth of America?" - not racism

"And because something tells me that Eric Holder is a bully" - prosecutors generally are perceived that way by the people they are prosecuting

"and many black administration officials are themselves racist as well?" that one is a sweeping generalization based on race, but it seems to be one that many on the left also make about white people.

[librechik]

7. yes--racists make clever excuses as you point out for their racism

They pretend they are not racists because they love the anger-filled writings of fascists who happen to be black. They claim they are not racist, it's merely that a bitch like Whoopi ought to go home and take care of the pickaninnies. They claim they aren't racist, it's just that that horrible gang music is not worth listening to--oh, and have you seen the way they look? They hate black officials and claim that is enlightened because they also hate white officials.

What they don't understand is that racism is a global perception, and distorting and wiggling around and whitewashing their racism as you exampled above merely makes the racism more apparent to those who are sensitive to it. Such as black folks and those who actually love and accept them

[hfojvt]

14. so if Alan Keyes was President

then I would just be a racist if I thought he was doing a bad job. Or if Condaleeza Rice was Secretary of State? Maybe it's more like I liked Gilbert Gottfried in Alladin but thinks he sucks at stand-up comedy. Or that I liked Arnold in Kindergarden Cop and Terminator, but think he sucks as a Governor.

Then again I think Obama sucks as a President. I wanted Jesse Jackson, but feel like I got Colin Powell instead.

Also, I hate rap because I am well over 40 and it's not the type of music that I grew up with. Stuff like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TKQcWEXSKU and this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7X5js1vE

[librechik]

15. stick with that. I'm sure it's working out great for ya n/t

[nomorenomore08]

18. As I said in my other post, it's not about merely disliking an individual.

If you were opposed to President Keyes for reasons of public policy, then no, that wouldn't be racist at all. On the other hand, what makes much of the criticism of Obama racist has to do with underlying assumptions and stereotypes - for example, the image of the "scary black man" (think Willie Horton) as a threat to mainstream, "good" white America.

[Deep13]

11. a swing and a miss. nt

[nomorenomore08]

13. It's partly the broad-brushing (e.g. "black people = "Al Sharpton") and partly

the exaggerated sense of persecution. I mean really, what do white Americans (and I am one) have to be so upset about RE: black Americans?

While they may have superficially non-racist reasons for disliking Pres. Obama or Rev. Sharpton, if you scratch at the surface of their arguments a bit I think you'll find a lot of underlying racist assumptions - e.g. that black people are disruptors or troublemakers by default, while white people are by default innocent of such behavior.

And while musical taste is of course quite subjective, it seems that older white folks - with a few exceptions, like the late Delores Tucker - are generally the most vehement critics of rap/hip-hop music. And considering that most rap artists are young and black, the contrast sticks out like a sore thumb.

[hfojvt]

17. the sense of persecution?

You mean there are not people on TV and in newspapers and on message boards constantly accusing some (many) of them of being racists?

Do you think we white old flattulents would object if young black people were making music like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7X5js1vE

because when I hear stuff like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWQ5-gwGrQs

it ain't the color of their skin that makes me say :wtf:

[nomorenomore08]

19. I said an *exaggerated* sense of persecution. Like claiming that accusations of racism

are as bad as racism itself, in terms of their impact on people's lives. Which, for the most part, is demonstrably false - I don't think many white conservatives have been held back in life simply because they happen to be white conservatives.

And RE: rap music, no one's expecting you (or anybody else) to like it, but the fact that so many of its (primarily older, white) critics are so obsessed with how awful and un-musical it supposedly is, strikes me as curious. Vaguely similar to how many older white men - mainly men, it seems in retrospect - were so obsessed with the O.J. Simpson murder case, when thousands of murders are committed in this country every year.

[hfojvt]

23. you mean that nobody has ever been fired or asked to resign

because of racism? Because losing a job is pretty traumatic, or can be.

And what happens to me, or people I know, or could happen to me, is generally going to be seen as a bigger deal than what happens to people I don't even know.


And OJ? Puh-lease. OJ has celebrity status and was on TV every day.

[nomorenomore08]

24. I never said that. Only that white conservatives have never been discriminated against

to anywhere near the same extent as have racial minorities. There's simply no comparison there, and to suggest there is one is precisely what I meant by "an exaggerated sense of persecution."

[Manifestor_of_Light]

27. It IS awful and unmusical as well as crude and sexist.

Earsplitting subwoofers, no chord changes, lyrics full of "bitches 'n' hos", totally monotonous and simple-minded.

I studied music on two instruments for twenty years, I know qutie a bit about music, and rap and hip-hop are NOT music.

If you want to know who invented rap, it was W.S. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Check out a song called "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General". It was written in 1879.

[Last_Stand]

8. "scarcely a day goes by that I don’t hear some black make a racist statement on television."

That doesn't sound racist at all.

That's about as far as I could get through that wall of filth.

[Solomon]

9. There's a ton of racism deniers, even here at DU

Isn't it enough not to be racist yourself? Why is there a crew that has to comment on every thread about racism that it's not really racism?

Boggles my mind.

[nomorenomore08]

16. Insecurity, I suppose, that they themselves might be accused of racism

for whatever reason. In which case, I think they simply need to chill the fuck out. Reminds me of what I said above RE: "exaggerated persecution complexes."

[hfojvt]

20. because either an OP makes sense, or it does not

If there is an OP with the title "Can you believe this racist excrement?"

and then quotes somebody saying "So I am racist because I think Obama is a bad President? Because I think Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are charlatans ..."

and the BULK of that does not strike me as being racist, then I dispute their perception, and ask for some kind of clarification. What are they seeing that I am not? Perhaps they have a sixth sense and are like the little boy who said "I see dead people. Everywhere." Do they have a super-sense, or are they jumping at shadows? Without some kind of confirmation I am not gonna believe that Jennifer Love Hewitt is talking to my late mother.

Maybe it is just like the damn 3-D posters that I can never see anything in, no matter how much I squint and try to throw my eyes out of focus and spend hours looking at the dumb things and still cannot see anything. You cannot show the color purple to somebody who is color blind. All they see are shades of gray.

Take the statement "every day I see black people on TV making racist statements".

I would not say such a thing, or agree that it is true, but how is it racist? It doesn't strike me as being as racist as something like "White people can't jump".

Also, people have filters. Just like somebody who reads DU will probably be made aware whenever Rush Limbaugh or Michelle Bachman or Geraldine Ferraro says something racist, so too, people who watch BillO and Hannity will be made aware whenever Al Sharpton, Benjamin Jealous or Jeremiah Wright says something racist. That may seem like it happens every day. Just because it is not my perception does not mean it is racist.

[L0oniX]

12. If I wanted to read shit from racist asscarrots I'd go over there. Thanks for

dirtying up DU.

[dionysus]

22. you didn't have to read the thread.

:shrug:

[L0oniX]

30. Oh well I guess I should have had my ESP on.

:eyes:

[cali]

26. shocker: you don't have to click on the thread. It doesn't take

more than a couple of brain cells to figure that one out. so sorry it's beyond YOU.

[L0oniX]

29. Oh sure ...I guess some people can get a clue from the title ...

"why yes, freeper yetidog, you are racist filth and so are 99%" yea that says everything doesn't it.

:eyes:

[BobbyBoring]

21. The election of Barrack Obama proved one thing

Racism is thriving and growing in America. What else could explain the obsession about bullshit things like a birth certificate, his religion, education, health care plan, radical agenda, devious plan to destroy America, etc.

And to think an old whitey like Soros is backing him in all of this:rofl:

[freshwest]

28. That was the worst load of tripe I've seen in a long, long time.

:puke:
