I may be an obese, normal senior citizen, but I am not racist. And I have two words for the dipsticks that wrote this silly guide.

The first word is a verb, the second is a pronoun.

The left has overplayed their hand, as usual.

They have taken the word ‘racist’ and applied it to so damn many things, most of which have absolutely nothing to do with true ‘racism’ that the word has lost all meaning to Americans. It has become a butt of jokes and a comedian’s running gag.

They have done a disservice to real victims of racism by making every little trivial and unimportant faux pas a ‘racist’ action.........................

Fine. Charge the administration and any black student you can find with being racist.

Is saying “Oh, just shut the f*** up!” Racist?

In other words, they are saying “you cannot resist our will and fight back. You just have to take it.”

Well folks, fighting back and resisting tyranny is as virtuous and American as apple pie. ALWAYS fight back against tyranny. NEVER let it pass unchallenged. If we do nothing, we lose our rights and our freedoms. Their side is just getting warmed up.

The university guide defines microaggressions as, “everyday verbal, nonverbal, and environmental slights, snubs, or insults, whether intentional or unintentional, that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative messages to target persons based solely upon their marginalized group membership.”

Liberals do this routinely to people they don't like or agree with. I know this for a certain fact. They love, love, love to project.

That’s only true if a racist says it to another racist with a different shade of epidermis.

In california, anyone who ISN’T a latino, preferably “undocumented,” is considered a racist.

Just ask moonbeam, batshit crazy pelosi, obama wannbe kamala harris, de leon the la raza peon, mad maxine, or xavier the reconquista cheerleader. All of these mexican government lackeys will tell you to your face that mexican socialism is superior to the Constitution, and all of you gringos need to go away.

“There is only one race, the human race,”

I thought they had already banned any word with "man" in it.

Real victims of racism?

They’re probably only about two or three in the entire country.

So, like, where’s the line between MICRO and MACRO-aggression? I remember when you actually had to hit someone for it to be assault.

Well, that's the rub. Because the law and genuine good-will have take away their arguments, they have to project onto the others the passive-agressive digs they themselves routinely engage in doing to cast their perceived enemies as haters. That's how they try to control others.

It’s very complicated.

When a white person self-identifies as black, does that mean that (insert appropriate pronoun here) is no longer a racist?

RE:”Using the phrase, “I’m not racist, I have several black friends” is also listed as an example of “racism”.

I am sure I never used that phrase.

Saying it implies you care what someone else thinks about it and you, not smart to do. (It might mean you think you ARE a racist too.)

I have said kiddingly many times that I am a sexist.

With regard to the title, well, of course that's the claim!

"We, the People" must be equipped to distinguish and between the principles that would keep America free and prosperous and the false premises that will enslave her. We must also be able to articulate them.

Accommodating tyranny by failing to call it what it is is dangerous. We have needed a leader whose words are strong and courageous and based in the principles of our Declaration of Independence--someone who is willing to put those principles into effect so that citizens actually can see them at work improving their lives.

American citizens have needed to wake up to the counterfeit ideas and false "hopes" offered by so-called Progressive (regressive) politicians who use "promises," just as the rest of us use "currency."

They buy votes with "promises" in order to gain power to themselves and their ilk. Then, when "hopes" are dashed, "the people" they have promised to help (the naive, the poor, the ignorant--even the "educated" who are ignorant of liberty vs. tyranny) find themselves enslaved, working for those who have purchased their power in the most despicable manner--by offering "hope and change." Thus it has ever been.

The people who founded America were not so "dumbed down." Hear two of them:

"It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. We hold this prudent jealousy to be the first duty of citizens and one of the noblest characteristics of the Revolution. The freemen of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise and entangled the question in precedents. They saw all the consequences in the principle [usurpation of power] and they avoided the consequences by denying the principle. We revere this lesson too much . . . to forget it." - James Madison

" . . . nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers, and destroyers press upon them so fast, that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon the American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour. The revenue creates pensioners, and the penshioners urge for more revenue. The people grow less steady, spirited, and virtuous, the seekers more numerous and more corrupt, and every day increases the circles of their dependents and expectants, until virtue, integrity, public spirit, simplicity, and frugality, become the objects of ridicule and scorn, and vanity, lusury, foppery, selfishness, meanness and downright venality swallow up the whole society." - John Adams

Further, it was not just the founding leaders who were well-informed about their constitution and approaching threats to its protections. By the Year 1830, when the French jurist Alexis de Tocqueville traveled America, he wrote admiringly of the citizenry, observing that even the backwoodsman was far more well-read and informed than those in other parts of the world, and that they understood their Constitution, and had with them a Bible and a newspaper. (Must be where Obama got the idea that those who objected to "redistribution and change" were 'clinging to their guns and Bibles') Sadly, beginning in the mid-20th Century, our Progressive-controlled "government" schools removed the ideas of liberty from the nation's textbooks, largely under the guise of a counterfeit idea of "separation of church and state," and the citizenry is uninformed as to the difference between tyranny and liberty.

Today, with all modern means of communication, many Americans continue to possess little understanding of threats to their liberty and, thus, risk losing it to charlatan Progressives whose only goal is mediocrity, power and control of "We, the People."
