Why should i have to constantly explain to to someone the difference between systemic racism and perhaps racist views?
They themselves are usually obsessed with racism...finding racism in everything from “white christmas to probably white soap? Oops, i guess i am being racist pointing that out?
Are they stupid or just playing word games?
Why do i have to repeatedly say i am not against immigration but ILLEGAL immigration.
Or, i am not against government i’m against BIG government.
Only to have them say something like, “yeah right you are a racist and you just prove it”

Waste of time.
Most of the time i just say, ‘yep, i am a racist.’
I want to bring back slavery and Jim Crow.
And the KKK is my peeps.

OY!

At my age, I just tell them they are full of crap and leave it at that.

Works for me.

I am a culturist. I observe and analyze various subcultures that include some consisting of all black Americans.

There is no racial component of critical statements describing conduct of a specific subculture that exists in very large inner cities and is essentially dysfunctional when compared to subcultures that are succesful

Europeans have different views of race than Americans. Until very recently, Irish & English, Polish & Lithuanian, German & Italian were racial divisions. Actually, in Eastern Europe, they still are. So they would understand the comment on Moroccans as being about race in the European context.

“How to Answer a False Accusation of Racism”

Talk about Deja Vu. Forty years ago when I was in college I took a class taught by a “liberal”. We had many disagreements during class when I would correct the mis-information she would constantly spew. One day the discussion was about affirmative action and while arguing against it she called me a racist in front of the entire class. As a conservative in liberal NY I had been called a racist more times than I can remember. Needless to say it didnt phase me. Its just words and I knew it wasnt true. Its a tool to give the left power and to shut you up. Ignore it, keep calm and carry on. In addition realize that the left uses a different definition of racism than what is in the dictionary. Be prepared to hear the BS that racism requires power and blacks cant be racist. Have your arguments ready to counter it.

“All lives matter” is, by its inclusivity, a statement of equality. “Black lives matter” is, by its exclusive focus on a single race, racist.

<<Libs and dims and BLM’ers do not apply logic and reason to much of anything. It is all about feelings.<<

That’s why I prefer to respond in kind. They’re not listening to any facts. If I’m called a racist, my response is likely “And you’re a child molester”.

You might also want to point out that black lives are a subset of all lives, and that by making the statement that all lives matter, you are stating implicitly that black lives matter. By focusing solely on black lives, the implication is that the value of other lives is dubious.

But that is way too logical for liberals to grasp, especially those whose debate tactic is limited to worn-out ad hominems.

The proper resonse for a white person to give someone who says: "Black Lives Matter" is to make it personal. Look the speaker in the eye and ask: "Does MY life matter?"

If the speaker answers "yes," the only response needed is: "OK then. I'm glad you agree that black lives aren't the only ones that matter."

If the speaker answers "no," then the proper response something like: "Well, obviously there's no point in listening to anything else you have to say, since you place no value on human life and arguably are an advocate of murder." If it's a professor giving the "no" answer, follow up with a public complaint to the administration accusing the the professor of creating an unsafe environment by inciting murder against you or other white students.

“...since all whites are racist no matter what...”

That’s the “hit the nail on the head” comment, right there. If you were born white, you were born a racist...and you’ve already lost any arguments with the left.

Discussing anything with a liberal is a losing proposition and a liberal professor will fail you. You’ve lost tuition money and will have to retake the class with odds that he’s the only one teaching it. Best you keep quiet until after final grades are submitted.
