You are spot on, my friend. Most of what might be accused as racism here is just truth without the whipped cream. I don't think any true Freeper harbors ill will for any race, although sometimes our statements might be misconstrued (sp?) Ignoring cultural differences of the races can be just as bigoted as exploiting them. The point I am trying to make is that true racism is not tolerated here; not by the "populace," nor by the management.
It cracks me up to watch liberals say that blacks, hispanics, women, aren't smart enough, or hard working enough, to make a living. Therefore, we, the WASPS, must provide for them, like pets. And they call us racists.
But I do cringe on race threads here. We have an image problem that is real. Our message gets lost in really tacky speech... We need to realize that, and if we want to convince others, improve our delivery.
”It cracks me up to watch liberals say that blacks, hispanics, women, aren't smart enough, or hard working enough, to make a living. Therefore, we, the WASPS, must provide for them, like pets. And they call us racists.” That is the size of it.
I have yet to talk with openly, a Republican Racist. I have met many openly racist Democrats. Everyone of those racist Democrats said they hated Republicans for their moral stance on issues such as abortion and the bed room.
