These are the blacks who claim they see no color; they claim racism doesn’t exist. They never miss an opportunity to criticize Al Sharpton. But they always seem to get a sudden case of laryngitis when a conservative says something negative or inappropriate about the black community.

This seems like a legitimate beef. It's also why I happily call fellow FReepers to task when I see stereotyping.

We should make it as easy as possible to identify as a conservative; we should make wannabes welcome.

Is it okay for blacks to constantly generalize about white privilege?

The way you just generalized about blacks?

First of all, I did not generalize. I posted a question about a hypothetical. I guess I should have written “Would it be okay” to please the nitpickers. And it was based on generalizations already made about another group. So I was asking if what was good for the goose was also good for the gander. But it seems things only go one way.

By the way generalizations are not necessarily a bad thing.

Another one is “capitalism.” Any one defending “capitalism” starts out in a 10 foot hole. It is a Marxist term...

Exactly so. Since it's a Marxist term, it was utilized for that purpose.

You're exactly right about the new descriptive. I don't like the word 'Capitalism.' I believe in individual rights, most especially property rights. A government which deprives anyone of property rights believes by definition in no rights except those granted by them.

A government depriving its citizens of property rights will not hesitate to negate all rights. See: Venezuela.

Really? Did the word ‘black’ appear in the legislation?

Re: Comment #86

Totally bogus inference.

The thread on #86 goes back two more clicks.

The “we” in #86 clearly refers to “Conservatives.”

I use “we” when my audience is Conservative, and I also include Clarence Thomas and Thomas Sowell in that plural pronoun.

It’s liberals who make blacks choose between their politics and their race, not conservatives.

The ones who say you can’t be black and conservative are not conservatives, but “progressives.”

Re: What's the matter...nobody has ever given YOU what YOU wanted/promised YOU something?

Are we speaking about elected Republicans?

I've been getting about 20 cents on the dollar since 1968.

But, I still vote for the Republican nominee every four years.

As to polls, actual voters carry more historical weight than potential voters.

As to posting crap, just specifically point out what I got wrong, and I will correct it.

By the way - it's a little bit comical when a guy called “nopardons” attacks a fellow Freeper who thinks that Trump's mass pardon is political pandering.

I have been asked, REPEATEDLY, for over 20 years, what my nic means and have addressed that many times over; yet you still apparently don't know what it refers to. So I'll explain it yet again; it means NO pardons for Bill nor Hill and goes back to his impeachment and their combined crimes!

And like those who have previously attempted to make something else out of my nic; your post falls flat!

You didn't answer my questions nor respond to the FACTS I posted. Ergo...your reply is useless; not to mention boring and not a debate nor even a conversation.

assumed that I was Jewish while insulting me, too.

I didn't assume you were Jewish. I just paid you the same compliment you paid me, which was you don't know what you are talking about.

How about Blacks simply define themselves as Fundamentalist Protestants and let that guide them?

How about everybody on both sides realize that Blacks are not foreigners, but one of the oldest population groups in the country (here before the Pilgrims)? Right now Blacks seem to think they're more alien to America than Lovecraftian non-Euclidean entities. And I'm sore more than a few whites think the same thing.
