The term “racism” was invented by communists. Leon Trotsky was one of the first to use it. When whites engage in favoritism toward other whites (and therefore discrimination against non-whites), its called racism. When other groups engage in favoritism, its called ethnic solidarity. When you buy into these word games, its called being a useful idiot.
Racist is an interesting word, after all who are the real racists? A person that loves their race, is proud of all its accomplishments, wants to live with their own kind and preserve their heritage? Or is a racist someone that is trying to destroy someone’s heritage through mass foreign immigration, diversity, multiculturalism and race mixing?
And just as this history has been revised, the current state of relations between the races isn't at all what the media and culture-smog would have you believe.
Pay attention to what you see.
On any given day, you can go to lunch and see mixed-race diners-work colleagues getting along just fine. The occasional black-white friend table for two. Look at the wedding announcements, we are intermarrying at an increased pace. High schools nearly completely melded, certainly not polarized by race. So many BFF's-opposite races. Heck, check the police blotter, we're even committing crimes together.
To read the tabloids or watch TV shows, one would believe the opposite. Best indication of the world we actually live in? Charleston, SC and the astounding aftermath of the races coming together. It's only astounding because of what we've been led to believe is the reality. The strife that does exist between the races in this country is largely induced and agitated by the left, which has a political stake in keeping the races divided. The largest impediment to racial harmony isn't white or black animosity, it's white guilt and black victimhood, both induced by revised history, and the left's political expediencies. When left alone, blacks and whites are getting along.
Of course there are haters, long way to go here, but in a few decades nearly everyone will have interracial families.
I'm not saying race relations are good, but absent the constant intentional division, from the White House to the movie screen, things are not nearly as bad as we are led to believe.
What we are seeing is the culmination of the goals of the “Great Society”, which was the LBJ/DNC mission of destroying the Black Nuclear Family and turn them into slaves on their plantation, dependent upon them for sustenance and inbred with a belief in their perpetual victim-hood.
Any Black who dares to succeed is branded an “Uncle Tom” and Whitey has become a free-fire zone.
May the Democrats rot in Hell for what they have done to our Black Brothers and Sisters!
The Democratic Party is the party of the race obsessed. They are the party of Jim Crow, slave economics, lynch mobs, fire hoses, ethnic politics, and the center of racism in America.
They see the world through this lens and can’t imagine that anyone out there does not. The race obsessed cannot imagine there are people who do not share their obsession.
There is another issue. The Left’s most prized tool is the manipulation of guilt (and accusations of racism are just one of several tools). They find whatever guilt will work on you and use it to strip you of your confidence. And then offer themselves as the source of redemption. If you are one of them, you can say and do anything guilt-free. If you step out of line, though, all the guilt they have held in abeyance for you comes rolling out until you return to the fold.
The manipulation of guilt doesn’t really work on people who know who they are in God. Which is a good reason for them to hate the people of God. Some people have just enough religion to feel guilt and not enough to know what to do with it; these are ripe for the Leftist’s harvest.
There is another issue. Just as some people might have conflated the values of the Christian West with skin color, the people who hate the values of the Christian West also conflate the two, sometimes unknowingly, and sometimes cynically. So the kinds of “reverse racism” we often see are intended to shut off thought and prevent anyone from considering the content and values of what we consider the West. It at once both unconscious and a deliberate and cynical ploy by people who very much know what they are doing. Don’t waste time debating Classic Liberalism and Constitutional Conservatism. Just denounce it as racism and roll right on. You may as well have cried “witch”, and for the weak of mind and soul it works.
That they choose NOT to may be due to racism all right. But not on the part of whites.
You can not debate this reality. Once things have gone that far it is all left up to the shooting.
The first false statement is -
“I can’t be a racist, if I am not (white/Caucasian).”
