You’re evidence is the dry legal documentation of policies that are actively trying to skirt the legal definition of racial discrimination. The evidence of Donald’s racism is his publicly stated beliefs and proposals for solving imagined problems and dangers, the idea of which is based on racist narratives and

Yup, just give them up and spend days defending obvious racists like Donald Trump because you’re so enlightened.

And I simply do not trust someone with your simplistic and ignorant view of how racism exists in society and how it shapes people’s beliefs and actions to make that judgement, and especially not to make that judgement of others. In your last two posts, you have argued that people choose to be racist or not and that

Nobody chooses what their immediate emotional response to something is going to be. It’s all based on our past experiences and what we’ve learned about the world and how it works. But many of the things we’ve “learned” and been told about the world growing up and as adults are racist lies and distortions perpetuated

Weird how immediately after you talked about black people and Indian people fighting back against societies that justified their abuse of them with racist narratives, you deny that racist narratives exist in society. Racist narratives isn’t a “clever phrase”, it’s a basic description of cultural ideas about and

We love diversity of valid ideas, you’re just mad because your ideas are wrong and we keep telling you that.

This is all such crazy deflection man. You claimed that your demand for debate on racism was on topic but even you can’t claim that this is still on topic for this article and space. Back to the racism topic you demanded we discuss though, you still haven’t addressed my point that the major elements for Trump’s

“they see things from a different perspective”

Here’s the problem: as I said, racism isn’t heinous, it’s an everyday thing. It’s believing in some of the most common ideas in society that most people believe on some level. Learn what those narratives are, and it’s really easy to see when someone is acting on one of those racist beliefs. Trump demonstrates that he

Taking the comic a bit too literally I see? You even feign civility and intentionally miss the point of a comic making fun of you for feigning civility and intentionally missing the point.

Hey now, remember, it’s unfair to infer anything about his character from his actions or stated beliefs. He’s just a sea lion, let’s leave it at that.

Lol yes, be disturbed! Look, racism is not some rare disease that requires a diagnosis from House, racism is when someone accepts and internalizes ubiquitous racist narratives in society. Most people are racist, I myself am racist, that is a fact that I know. We all grew up learning about the world through a racist

Since it’s now proven that you aren’t going to accept any evidence as real evidence of racism from the guy whose policies and rhetoric are the textbook definition of xenophobic (just as Sobchak Security rightly assumed), kindly take your faux-innocent questioning, sea lioning bullshit and GTFO like Sobchak told you in

Yes, if your answer to “why?” is “they must just be irrational hypocrites”, you’re probably wrong, no matter what the question is.

Yup, and that right there shows the truly held values of the right wing base. Nothing about your actual quality as a person matters if you just talk tough and shit on brown people.

Seriously, and every mention of Comey’s letter to congress in November should have been phrased “Comey’s classified letter to congress that was leaked by Jason Chaffetz”.

It’s juvenile logic that you see everywhere on the internet. Reduce everything to variables, in this case ideology A and B, replace A with B and conclude that because treating B the way A was treated would be considered wrong, treating A that way must be wrong. There is no consideration of the relative value or unique

It’s not, it’s just hard to argue that against well paid lawyers.

See, it’s not that the meaning of racism has been “lost”, it’s that the understood definition of racism you grew up with has proven to be insufficient for the scope of the problem.

They don’t actually have principles, they just want their (white) guys to win and they’ll hit the other side with whatever blunt rhetorical object is handy.
