Like to think that even moderate liberals think this is nuts.
The only racists in my family is....... drum roll please ...... **a Democrat** And he is the worst kind.
I imagine conservatives don't have politically correct responses/language memorized to express race talk. They are called racists when they say race has no meaning; only the content of one's character, etc. That kind of speech and idea is absent from today's liberal circles. It sounds tricky and strange to them because they are accustomed to left wing tribal slogans.
But no one should underestimate the Left's determination to regain power. They can not win through shutting down free speech - an arena where conservatives win; so they will try to make conservative ideas criminal and insane like in North Korea, China, USSR and Cuba.
Leftists do not share the ideals of freedom which would stop a conservative in power from doing this to liberals; the constitution is living to serve liberalism's total control and power. If elections get in the way; they will any means necessary to harm their opponents. That is what Marxists do; they have no tolerance for the evil ones who oppose them.
