OK. As resident Practicing Political Scientist, I'd like to do something out of character and start a thread. A Vanity, no less. Hopefully JimRob and the admins will understand and take my years on FR and my "cranky old bastard" status into consideration and grant me their grace.
Here's something that I've been thinking about recently. What with the smoldering race war evolving around us, this is worthy of discussion. Here goes.
Everybody's heard the tired old Marxist definition of racism. You know, the one that says all white people are "racist", and black people can NOT be racist. Kind of a self-serving definition, and nothing close to what any dictionary says about it, but well, that's what the Mau Maus of BLM and the New Black Panthers say.
Let's stop arguing semantics, they are better at it than we are. Let's concede their right to define "racism" any way they like, and embrace it. If all white people are "racist" by accident of birth, then I guess it's no big deal, and we should stop worrying about what they call us.
But here's my question for the forum. If blacks can't be called racist, what shall we call them when they betray their "kill whitey" biases? Let's talk about this. We should be able to coin an appropriate term that addresses the issue without using Marx's terminology.
We should talk about it, come up with the word or words and start using it, make it go viral. But most of all DEFINE IT and OWN IT.
Please, stop with this madness and call things what they are. Failing to do so is part of the reason we're in this mess!
BRAVO, exactly right.
Ex-cons.

Why mess with the English language? Black racists talk and act like racists. Racist is the correct word.
Racists.
People aren’t colors.
Tanned reality challenged takers?
Because of the current crimes under investigation, just plain old murders.

A$$HOLE.
Nation of Islam thugs, NOI, ISIS, Black Panthers or son of Obama.
WHITE PEOPLE HATERS!! WPH!!
Call them separatists.
Either they agree and then they have to own it, and then you can demand they make good on their beliefs or they have to say they are not, which makes them willing collaborators with white racists, which destroys the arguments of racism.
The word racism has become completely overused and wrongly attributed to non-racial issues. The english are now behaving racist towards the Poles... etc. Most of what passes as racism is bigotry towards certain classes and cultures. I know many Africans who are extremely bigoted towards American blacks. Don’t get me started on Latin Americans, who hold awful views of their neighboring countrymen. Can Americans of any hue hold racist views? Of course, but I mostly hear bigoted views expressed about groups rather than individuals, and it covers the entire economic, cultural and political spectrum.
I already have a word for them. It isn’t a pretty word, but it fits. I reserve the right to use it whenever I deem it to be appropriate. I have no use for them. I don’t work with them. I don’t associate with them. I don’t live near them. I don’t have to. They have brought murder and destruction upon my family, therefore their lives in fact, do NOT matter to me.
I believe this statement to be correct.
The dimocraps have kept black people like so much live stock for years... They house them, feed them, keep them warm and somewhat comfortable..
But they have socially engineered them in such ways that have caused pandemonium in the herd... Murder, drugs, no job or family, no friends that their not afraid to turn their back on..
The black stock looks out from their holding pens and sees the white stock and realizes that something is definitely wrong.. They see the new cars, big houses and nice neighborhoods with good schools... The American dream happening right before their eyes and far too many of them have no part of it...
I think the dimocraps are about to lose control of their experiment...
We can only hope the black folk choose their enemy carefully....make the wrong choice and it will no doubt be the end of them....
So far, near as I can tell, they are headed in the wrong direction.....It's the liberal dimocraps (progressives) that are their enemy..
MHO. :(
One word: hypocrites
Race Slaves? Kinda rolls off the tongue.
Separatists won’t do. The “pilgrims” who came here to start this country didn’t call themselves pilgrims. That term came along in the 1800s. They called themselves Separatists and are my direct ancestors.
I don’t accept the premise that blacks have no power and therefore can not be racist. The President of the US is Black. That’s power. I still call racist blacks - racists.
Black racists could be referred to as tribalists. It’s a zero sum mentality. They only care about their own tribe of people and see outsiders as competitors to be debased and defeated. They resent, mistreat and despise all people who are not of their tribe. They covet what people outside their tribe have, including positive physical characteristics. Coveting is central to the tribe.
