Crap, where did Talisker go? Thought she might come back to this thread and lead in a verse of “We Shall Overcome”

Nonsense. It’s as bad now as it’s been since. Obsessions with “diversity” unlawful, unpopular, immoral discrimination against Whites and Asians, males. Racial pandering by the media and self seeking politicians. A divisive Administration. Riots in the streets, fans flamed by all the above. Lives ruined by false accusations by leftist lynch mobs and brainwashed blacks. An out of control entitlement culture by those too lazy to work and act civilly.

And lastly, attempts to cover for adulterous, dishonest, and criminal behavior by “respected” “family men” It’s no conspiracy, it’s an awakening to the fraud and those who continually try to justify/excuse it.

Wouldn't surprise me at all. This is the same loon who devoted an FR thread to praising Malcolm X as a conservative icon.

Did you read his book “A Testament of Hope” yourself, or did you just cut and paste it from some other site where it’s also been cut and pasted?

Did you read the 1965 Playboy interview yourself, or did you just cut and paste it from some other site second or third hand site?

Did you read his 1961 speech yourself, in context, or did you just cut and paste it from another second hand source?

I ask because some quotes used to promote how red he was On the internet are taken not from him directly but from a book written by an agenda driven author who hasn’t been fact checked and in some cases is the only online source. The excerpts from that book are spread all over the internet by the CP, but not in full.

Even if it accurately reflects his views
( and it may because I sure haven’t read them all in full)- if Freepers take a moment and reflect on how easy it would be for a few people to revise history on any subject when virtually no one goes to the cited sources to see if the citations are even real, just simply trusting the author. We’re all guilty of it, but in the old days on FR before the lefties sued the site, and everyone started texting from tiny smart phone screens, we made each other link to their sources so we could read it in context.
