Too often - these claims are not made because somebody sees anything racist - these claims are made to force an issue....any stinkin' issue.... to be overshadowed by the ugly claim of racism.
Racism , and other types of bigotry, run rampant in liberal circles - but they have inoculated themselves from the charge. Liberals don't care about "racism" or other types of bigotry unless it is able to serve as some type of smokescreen to drown out some other threatening issue.
It is truely a vile flag to hide behind - because the empty charges of "racism" allow the continued existance of true racism to cling to life.
