One should be meekly accepting when falsely accused?
Because the people making the accusations are the biggest racists on the planet, and don't know any other argumentative style beyond charging racism.
I can’t speak for all white people, just like this silly author can’t speak for the experiences of all black people or Hispanics. For a vast number of white people it is fair to say that they reject the accusation of racism because they don’t care about race. Conservatives, for the most part, fit into that category. Regardless of someone’s color or ethnic background, if they hold to conservative values and principles, they are one of us. It’s an ideological thing, but also a moral thing.
The biggest glitch with Critical Race Theory is that all the problems of one race are blamed on the racism, personal and institutional, of white people. Without trying to change the minds of black people who think this way, something that can’t be done, nothing good will ever come of that thinking. Black people can’t do anything to improve their crime statistics, their education, or job statistics until they stop the degeneration of their culture. White people can’t do it, no matter how many times we are called racists. Black people can’t do it if they insist upon being more militant and bigger racists than the worst of white people.
Our immigration policies are not racist. Illegal immigration ignores our policies. There is a difference. Enforcement of our immigration policies isn’t institutionalized racism.
What is the truth? The truth is this, the vast majority of whites are not racists, but the real racists, most blacks, are intensely racist. Additionally, there is a huge political agenda behind political correctness that is being fostered by progressives/socialists/communists....
Yup, he got us on that one!
Us white people are all out burning crosses and lynching black folks! Yup, and those Norwegians are still burning seacoast villages, those Germans still marchin' into Paris, and the Injuns are still scalpin' settlers...
I’m not touchy. I like a good laugh.
Where do people come up with this crap?
I’m pissed that my great grandfather who was wounded at Gettysburg fought for the wrong side . The North!
You know? This is hilarious coming from someone with a Japanese surname.
Japan is probably the most racially pure place on the planet.

Why are ignorant sub-human, low IQ, morons so sure they know what goes on in a superior mind?
Go ahead, call me a racist, make my day as as soon as the race card is played I know I won the debate as they are out of intellectual ammo.
I base my macro opinions on the bell curve of various cultures, races, religions... and opinions on individuals based solely on their behavior. More often than not, the two opinions are in sync, other times the difference proves the rule.
I don’t know the history of this idea of ‘racism’, other that the word is not present in 100+ year old English dictionaries, and that Leon Trotsky is sometimes credited with inventing it. Because it is a 20th century invention, like the transistor and electric gittar, and it describes what is known to exist in every human society under the name of ethnocentrism, and in sane societies it is tolerated, because there is no cure - members of an ethnic group will always be loyal to their own group and wary of others... D’UH! Like the Japanese. Whether or not Trotsky invented it, the Soviets and their agents, here and elsewhere, used it as a psychological weapon in their war against Western Civilization, and, as we can see, used it quite successfully. Its most obnoxious aspect is the subliminal association with the racial studies and experiments of good Dr Mengele (no, I don’t mean Lawrence Olivier), the effect of which has been a taboo, if that’s the word, in the West on any studies related to race.
I, for one, keep insisting that this ‘racism’ thing is something that doesn’t exist. Like global warming, it is a thing in which existence one has to believe.
Because most of us are NOT racist. I am a product of Scot, English, French, German and Cherokee. And I have the Celt genes the strongest. Typical American. We all bleed the same color RED.
Blacks or if you prefer the PC term African American though a lot never set foot in that country or came from there, are the sensitive ones, they can call each other that bad word ever other word out of their mouths, but I can’t react when called a cracker, honky or on my step-dad’s side a WOP. And if I lived in the old west just that tad of Cherokee would have had me called a Squaw.
3 of my great grands are mixed races. I love them no less.To bad their dads turned out to be criminals and are behind bars.
And don’t forget it was your fellow tribes that sold you into slavery, and blacks owned slaves. MLK JR for the ignorant was a REPUBLICAN! He knew who blocked voting rights for his people DEMS.
Them: You a racist!
Me: What are you going to do about it? Tell my mom?
Am I racist for noticing that black people have a far higher rate of criminality than other races? Am I racist for noticing that most of the illegal immigrants coming into America are Hispanic? In the eyes of today’s Liberal the answer to those questions is “yes”.
The effect of endless media propagandizing and group think on ‘guilt’ over slavery and Jim Crow engendered by what is euphemistically called higher education and the cultural establishment (a film such as ‘Gone With the Wind’ would be literally impossible today) has brainwashed a large part of the so called educated white professional class into buying the myth of white guilt and into being just plain cowardly. This is true in the South as much as or maybe more than elsewhere. The sheer horror that comments I have made on the necessity for self defense and the need for white Southerners to be bluntly unapologetic for black problems today decades after the end of Jim Crow have engendered in a number of upper middle class white professionals is evidence of how brainwashed, weak and cowardly many of these people have become.
I think it is because it is so subjective and the definition is always changing.
You might be racist if:
You don’t have a black friend.
You don’t live in a neighborhood with black people.
Add your own.
As amply demonstrated before the elections and now from the Zimmerman trial. The persecution of Paula Deen shows just how hard it is to find white racism these days - it's been PC'd out of the vast majority of us. Black racism, on the other hand, is displayed daily.
I prefer to watch NASCAR over other sports, so that makes me a racist.
We have come to this sad state in America partly because far too
many people are more concerned about being labeled a
racist than standing up for what is right. Even those who
are not particularly politically motivated voted for Obama,
(some twice) just to make themselves feel good about
their attitude toward those of other races. My question
is will our country be strong enough to overcome this kind
of insanity?
