What’s Racist, What’s Not (As of Friday, Oct. 3, 2014). Note: Will update as necessary
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 10/03/2014 | BY: Andrew Stiles

Posted on 10/04/2014 12:49:14 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Liberals tend to devote a significant portion of their daily lives to proving how not racist they are. One particularly expedient way of doing this is to declare that something a conservative has said or done is totally racist, and then to place oneself in opposition to the thing that was racist: “See, I’m not a racist!”

As result, the List of Things That Are Racist has grown incomprehensibly long. The Free Beacon‘s devotion to public service obligates us to provide this list (not exhaustive by any means) of what liberals do and do not consider to be racist.

Things That Are Racist

1. Talking about Ebola (Salon)

2. Describing the Hong Kong protests as “clean and orderly” (Vox)

3. Pointing out that white people use heroin (Salon)

4. #BringBackOurGirls (Salon)

5. Describing Obama as “angry” (MSNBC)

6. The American Revolution (Salon)

7. Children’s books with white characters (Salon)

8. Criticizing the IRS (MSNBC)

9. Donating to the United Negro College Fund

10. Being half-white (Salon)

11. Supporting Herman Cain (MSNBC)

12. Opposing Obama (MSNBC)

13. Rocky III (Vox)

14. When black conservatives disagree with black liberals (Salon)

15. Noting that Obama has an Ivy League education (MSNBC)

16. Saying Obama likes to play golf (MSNBC)

17. Saying “Obamacare” (MSNBC)

18. Living in the suburbs (Salon)

19. Calling Obama “Obama” (MSNBC)

20. Criticizing liberals for constantly accusing people of racism (Salon)

21. “Tom and Jerry” cartoons

22. Cupcakes

23. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches

Things That Are Not Racist

1. Suing a fertility clinic after giving birth to a mixed race child that you wish was white* (Salon)

Aisle 6 of the supermarket. Of course it goes without saying supermarkets are racist.

“Liberals tend to devote a significant portion of their daily lives to proving how not racist they are.”

It’s because of their own guilt of the matter. That’s why
they are always the first to make the accusation. Racism is
part of being a liberal. Simply by trying to prove they
are not racist is racist.

“That epithet has been so overused,”

Yes but it’s the only one that works on some white people.
Tell me, does cracker, honkey, whitey or “the man” bother
you like minority epithets bother them?

And I take every opportunity I get to remind them that the slave owners, Confederates and segregationists were RATs, and that the Abolitionists became "The Republicans".

If we Conservatives are going to be consistent, the attitudes and actions of long dead Democrats are no more relevant today than is the fact that many of today's blacks have ancestors who were slaves (of whites or of other blacks).

We Conservatives should have the motto, "Judge me by my character & actions. I will do the same for you."

long dead Democrats

You mean like LBJ, Albert Gore Sr, George Wallace, Bull Connor and yes, Robert KKK Byrd? (etc etc etc)

The RAT party of today continues to enslave those surviving blacks it hasn't managed to murder in the womb. (See: Eugenicist Margaret Sanger)

...cracker, honkey, whitey or “the man” bother you like minority epithets bother them?

My late mom made sure her kids grew up heeding "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."

So, no, I don't get too wrapped around the axle from verbal taunts.

But these days, it's OK for some Americans to use the dreaded "N word", and NOT OK for others. And this has been going on for decades now.

Were all equal, but SOME are more equal than others. No matter how much the majority of citizens bend to the demands of the minority, it will never be enough.

long dead Democrats

It is the Democrats of today, in their support of Obama, the Clintons and anything socialist that are destroying our country.

As bad as segregation & Jim Crow were, they are nothing compared to the socialism of Reid, Pelosi, Boxer, the Clintons, et al. and the Islamic treason of Obama.

Don't fight the last war. The one against long dead Democrats. The younger Americans of today equate "LBJ, Albert Gore Sr, George Wallace, Bull Connor and yes, Robert KKK Byrd" with "flyover country" and Red States, with "rural bitter clingers". They do not think of the Democrat party.

It's the same war, LBJ was a communist, and they haven't been dead that long.

The younger Americans of today equate "LBJ, Albert Gore Sr, George Wallace, Bull Connor and yes, Robert KKK Byrd" with "flyover country" and Red States, with "rural bitter clingers". They do not think of the Democrat party.

Well then they believe a BIG LIE...and that's exactly why they need to be told the truth. Pushback to over 50 years of communist takeover and RATaganda.

Right back full-circle to my original comment.

American leftists are NOT tough 1930 ‘s Nazi and commie steetfighters.

They’ve been castrated by femi-nazis. They wear Maybelline mascara, carry packs of Depends diapers, hate guns and crap in their panties when confronted in dark parking lots.

I think Democrat politicians are more disrespectful of Republican Presidents--because they know they can get away with it without being jumped on by the media (which shares their disdain). Obama was particularly egregious in the 2008 campaign with his sneering comments about "old Bush" (meaning the incumbent President). Probably Clinton was just as bad but I don't recall specifics from 1992.

When Hillary was in the Senate she flashed a newspaper front page that had in huge letters "Bush Lied" for all to see.

Meanwhile other Democrats were calling him a chimpanzee, and so on.

Just congratulate them on having their Alinsky down so well but say that you don’t allow others to dictate how you use the words you do and go on to talk about the point you were trying to make to begin with.....
