If there are no minorities, the media meme is “monochromatic” and “lily white.”

If there are minorities, the meme becomes “tokens”, “Uncle Toms”, “minstrel show”, or worse.

Don’t play their game. You can’t win.

More like “worse”, and you know, we still don’t care and show up anyway.

I respectfully disagree. I live one congressional district south of Nancy Pelosi. I contract for one of the most liberal companies in America. I'm surrounded 24x7 by people who think that I and all conservatives are stupid, racist, sexist homophobes. The alternative to playing their game is often to lay down and take it. I'm not good at that.

I'm white but I know what it feels like to be a lonely conservative. Mr. Parks' video served two purposes. First it provided affirmation. It's good to know, and sometimes you can forget, that there are people out there who feel like you do about things. Second, most leftists I know regard themselves as being quite intelligent and superior in all ways to those of us on the right. Ridicule and irony are effective ways to pop their balloon.
