Yes, racism so blatant that only two FReepers were sensitive and erudite to detect it. All hail Din Maker and livius, detectors of racism.
What is more likely? That racism at FR is so subtle and ingrained that only two super-FReepers could detect it, or that two FReepers are invested in trying to feed their need to feel like the smartest people in the room?
Very well said and I concur 100% with your analysis. Yes, there have been episodic events of racism here on Free Republic. But in every single case -- without exception -- they have been traced back to liberal infiltrators who have quickly been ushered out of this forum. Noteworthy was the summer 2009 thread when hussein (at taxpayer expense) took his "family" to France. Leftists sullied the reputation of Free Republic with remarks similar to those of the DemonRAT organization, the Ku Klux Klan. That thread was quickly pulled by the fast-acting moderators once it became apparent that an organized astroturf campaign was underway in an attempt to sully the good name of Free Republic.
And of course, the boss sees to it that every poster must adhere to his clearly stated policy and unambiguous words:
NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts.
