Well, there you have it folks. Right before your very eyes. Racism is alive and well in the Democrat Party.
Racism? Where is the racism? My calling black conservatives and Republicans out, for siding with the opposition (white racists Republicans, who would sooner have slavery and Jim Crow back as constructs) is not racism. Rejecting your own isn't racism...it's race treachery. And that is precisely what black Republicans and conservatives have done...sided with the enemy.

I recently attended a speech on race and racism at a Native American reservation. One portion of the speech given stuck with me, I'll paraphrase it here.
The assumption that those of any "race" must believe exactly as you do or be "race traitors" is based in a strong stereotype created by those who wish to control and direct your mind. Fear of being mocked, called racist, called race traitors helps to ensure that the mind remain in line and that few will leave the reservation. By limiting thought to the "accepted" we bind ourselves to limitations that come from "outside" and we help to build the barriers rather than remove them.
I think it is a mistake to label people based on how much they agree with you according to some "race" standard that you expect them to meet.
I'm good with that, you judge them based on their skin color and a standard you believe that they should live by, and are unashamed of that. And the extreme of the left would be Stalin, Lenin, Mao, etc. and the anarchists.
"Strapping themselves to sequoias"? Right. The Weathermen never did anything like bombing places... never targeted people like cops.

The weathermen? I thought we were talking about the here and now. The Tea Party is now. Where is its' equivalent? Nowhere.
I don't really see people like Colin Powell and JC Watts as siding with the 'enemy' or as self-haters.
Right. The TEA Party is also not inciting violence, haven't blown anything up, and simply protest exactly like the left has done in the past. The equivalent of the TEA Party would be the war protesters during Bush's terms. Even the pictures are the same. Hitler mustaches, etc.
You are saying that they are the "extreme right"... They really aren't. The extreme right would be much more rare, idiots that blow up abortion clinics come to mind, just like images of burning ski lodges come to mind when I think of the extreme left...
If the "most extreme" the right can get is dudes with signs filling up the mall to protest government overreach then just wow... they must be the most peaceful people ever.

Racism is alive and reasonably well in all parties and in all branches of society. It is a human condition that comes with puberty. Most people know that racism is wrong, most know that it is bad for society and most know that it should be hidden. But lets give it another name. Lets call it 'differencism'. Now we can all recognise it in ourselves. We all have preconceptions based on height, weight, hair colour, religion, skin colour, deformaties, etc. etc.
It is uncomfortable to admit that we are 'differentist', that our judgements are sometimes coloured by look rather than content.
I know that in America racism against blacks equates with the terrible treatment of slaves up to modern times, but racism per se, is not concerned so much with history as a human desire to understand the world by recognising patterns and trends.
'Differentism' is not good. Differentism hides the basic human values that we find when we get to know 'different' people. But even though we might get past it with one type of 'difference' we will still practice it with others.
So all of us 'differentists' should get together and have a huge 'coming out' party. I'm different and I'm proud.
Except, of course, that some people are still the same!
Low, it's ok. Alias is caught up in "white privilege" which tells him that he knows what's best for everybody, and can tell black folks the truth about themselves. I just "flush", and keep on truckin'.
I don't see how this scraping from life's old boot knows what is best for anyone when everyone knows that only I know what's best!
Seriously, these fuckwits are a laugh a minute. How they have ever risen to the dizzying heights of adulthood is beyond me.
