When you consider who’s doing the name calling, they have no moral or ethical standing on... anything.

Why are you ashamed of yourself?

There’s nothing politically wise about it, either. Kahane’s Kach Party was banned from the Knesset on that pretext. France and the EU probably have similar rules. Bannon ought to help his brother Race keep track of those two boys and their dog, and leave the politics to non-idiots.

No, but there is plenty of honor in being called a racist.

Being called a racist today means you have the right enemies.

Being called a racist means you refuse to bow down to Progressive’s Owellian definition of words.

It means you think for yourself.

It means you do not succumb to groupthink, and allowing the dominant media label you and villify you because you will not accept their agenda.

Being called a racist has lost any of semblance of connection with *being* a racist. People who are obvious, blatant racists are never called racist by the powers that be if they are the politically correct color.

I read about his speech in Polish media and DailyMail misreporting a lot. He said that they shouldn’t care about being called “racists”. He did not advocate racism.

Well...I guess threads like this need at least one post from a FReeper who feels compelled to engage in virtue signaling after missing the point of the thread.

There you go. The road to recovery is admitting you have a problem and seeing the flaw.

There is nothing honorable about being falsely accused of being racist.

The left have used words to silence those that disagree with them.

As it stands now all straight white men in America are considered “racist” by the left.

Now you have a choice. Cower in the corner and peeing down your leg or standing tall against those that are trying to rule our nation using your fear of being called a name to get their way.

Depends entirely on the definition of “racist”. If a racist is one that wants to exclude muslims from our society, because they mutilate their women, throw gays off of buildings and think its ok to rape non muslim women, I’m ok with it.

If it is true, it is reprehensible. If it is untrue, then the person is a liar. Call them out. If they support abortion then they are child molesters. If they support open borders then they are anti-American.

The time for turning the other cheek is over.

That's because you haven't kept up and are still using a 20th Century definition for the term.

If you have white skin, you are, by definition, a racist cracker. Embrace it.

If you are a gentleman of color, I wouldn't expect you to be able to understand.

His point is that if standing up for your national sovereignty makes you a "racist" in the eyes of the @ssholes who are trying to ruin your country, then so be it.

Reminds me of an astute observation made by the Southern author and social critic Walker Percy in an essay he wrote in th 1960s during the political debate about Federal civil rights laws. He said something to this effect: "One hundred years ago, the sanctimonious people of the Union waged a civil war as part of what they claimed to be a moral crusade against slavery. Today, those same sanctimonious northerners do whatever they can to keep the former slaves from living next door to them."

Make sure you also point-out that there’s nothing honorable in being deplorable.

Only when they are going to brand you as a racist whether you are or not.

Being racist and cowering at being called one with no legitimacy is equal on the ‘honorable’ side. Mocking false accusers is the best offense to scoundrels, especially when the light of truth supports your mocking them for their drive to project from their true biases.

I’ve had all sorts of scum try calling me racist. I just shrug my shoulders at them to take away their tactics while at the same time just saying that I stand on my ultimate judgment in only God knows my heart.

No there isn’t. But when the Left calls someone a racist they usually mean the person is standing up for Judeo-Christian values and other roots of Western Civilization and the system of governments that enshrine those values. Such values are actually racially neutral but the Left has come to see them as a threat. To them these values most be evil because, oh take your pick, colonialism, capitalism,Christianity.

The Left knows if you control the language you control the argument. We have fallen for this over and over again to the point where some are rendered eunuchs in the face of any invective hurled their way. It is time we stop that.
