I don't really think we're saying different things. I just don't think labeling people as racist is particularly productive.

I don't know. It probably takes different approaches depending on the person. Personally, if someone calls me something I don't want to be, and I realize they're right, I feel shame, which can lead to feeling like I can't change that behavior. Buy maybe some people need a bucket of cold water thrown at them to shock…
But that's a dangerous assumption, because once you put someone in a category like that, how do they get out? And it leads to inhibiting definitions rather than reflection. If you say, 'presuming all black people voted for Obama because he's black, makes you a racist' what good does it do? That person is a racist, all…
Can she just play Trump?
You're not really saying much, anyway, so there result is pretty much the same.
I'm a bit late, but I'd just like to say that sometimes saying 'we're all a little racist' elicits a response of, 'hey, speak for yourself!' I do think a lot of this comes from a perfectly reasonable assumption that one's actions ipso facto define oneself, AND that people easily fit into categories. So you get "That…
Well I am glad that, now, two people got it! 😀
That's true, Mr. President, but we make up for it with benefits.
But I'm cutting all the benefits!
Huh, that sure sucks then.
That's why he's going to be such a great president, you see, because it's a downgrade, but he needs to do this for his country!
I mean, it felt that way at the time.
Hey, some people like that. They mostly vote Republican.
That is one striking woman standing in front of the Astronaut in the chorus at the end.
That makes perfect sense if all liberals are the same and all black people are the same. I hate these segments, because they mean nothing, but people put a lot of stock into them. They put people on the spot and ask them to regurgitate information that they might have read, but may not have fully processed, or…
I would say that was the intellectual climax of the film, as it revealed the 'big ideas'. Also, clearly I meant exposition, not exhibition. But I suppose that works too.
I mean, it was basically a gif.
I mean the climax of the movie is about five minutes of exhibition delivered by voice over with fairly long static shots of immobile faces.
They really should've waited until the day before.
Of course not, but it would be nice if they didn't solidify the current boundaries. And no, in not saying that the President will be the sole culprit in this divisions.
I have heard more than one person say that, at least with Trump we'll know he's telling the truth, so I'm really not sure some people are living in the same reality as me.
I agree. I do think Clinton, behind the scenes, would be a pretty good President, but I really don't like the fact that we're going to have at least 4 more years of this bullshit of bringing up stupid things she and Bill keep doing that have the stench of corruption, even if they don't actually mean corruption. For…
