We’re not a nation consumed by racism, DEMOCRATS are consumed by racism. The rest of us could care less about race, if I meet someone new I could care less if they are black, Asian, Hispanic. Only democrats care, democrats obsess about it because THEY are the ones who are racist. They decided to become so during the Obama reign.
I dunno. I think a lot of Republicans are drinking the Kool-Aid, or least going through the motions of blathering on about — “Of course, I agree that Black Lives Matter. And that George Floyd case was just so awful, I sure am glad that at least some justice was done in the end, and of course it’s nice that we have a person of color in the White House, but, you know, I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m no racist. I apologize for voting for Donald Trump, and I think Jan 6 was terrible, but, again, I just want to emphasize, that I am no racist.”
In short: A lot of people are very cowed. This is not just a DEMOCRAT problem. Maybe it’s not you. Maybe it’s not me. But to some extent, across America, the problem is “us”.
