Prager is just a genius at presenting short explanations that completely dismantle Leftist orthodoxy.

Pragar has a great idea but I’m getting sick of all this racist talk. It’s obvious that the subject has become the weapon of choice for the communists. Our side should stop playing defense and go on total offense by constantly pinning the commie tail on the donkey. Nuff said.

Defending yourself that you are not racist is what they want throws you back on your heels and puts you on the defensive and at a disadvantage. Agree with them

This is indeed genius.

It points out, clearly and precisely what racism has come to mean for leftists today: opposition to the current leftist ideology.

I have come to the conclusion that every human on the face of the earth is a racist so putting that label on any one person or group of people is meaningless. - Captain Compassion

Dennis needs to get over his distinction between leftists and liberals.

It’s not true.

In this article it simply detracts.

But it would be a good start to making it possible the idea of “content of character” which is a proven winner when used.

administer a color blindness test?

because a color blind Trump supporter might not realize that he is a President of color.

They do want to put you on the defensive but agreeing only allows them to declare smug victory.

Not sure what the answer is except to turn it back on them.

Or just tell them to GYFYS.

This will only result in millions walking into the voting booth muttering “So I’m a racist, f*** you b@stards!” and pulling the lever for Trump.

What the Left has lost track of, in their constant accusations of racism to anyone who they don't agree with, is that their over-use of the word means that no one is a racist.

If you call everyone a racist, then no one is a racist.

Calling someone a racist used to be the last card democRATS pulled out of their pocket to play, but nowadays it is the first and only one they know how to play.

It's worn out its effectiveness and no one takes the accusation seriously anymore.

When they accuse Trump and half of the country racists, they are generalizing the use of the attack to the point of absurdity.
