Poll: Trump voters say racism against white Americans is a bigger problem than racism against Black Americans
yahoo ^ | 07/21/2023

As public support for reparations for African Americans remains stubbornly low, a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll reveals one major roadblock: Donald Trump voters believe that racism against white Americans has become a bigger problem than racism against Black Americans.

The survey of 1,638 U.S. adults, which was conducted from July 13-17, shows that among 2020 Trump voters, 62% say that racism against Black Americans is a problem today — while 73% say that racism against white Americans is a problem.

Asked how much of a problem racism currently is, just 19% of Trump voters describe racism against Black Americans as a “big problem.” Twice as many (37%) say racism against white Americans is a big problem.

Trump voters and self-identified Republicans — overlapping but not identical cohorts — are the only demographic groups identified by Yahoo News and YouGov who are more likely to say racism against white Americans is a problem than to say the same about racism against Black Americans. A majority (51%) of white Americans, for instance, think racism against people who look like them is a problem — but overall, far more white Americans (72%) say racism against Black Americans is a problem.

Consider the source of the story......a quick check reveals it took 2 libs to write this....one black, the other California liberal.

If you read it, the story was written to paint Trump people and Republicans in general as denying racism against blacks is an issue.

And now let’s call it what it is: Institutionalized racism.

You can throw Americans of Asian origin in with “Whites” being discriminated against, and with increasing frequency targeted with violence because of their race. Is being randomly shot or beaten to death by a gang of “youths” any different in cause and result than lynchings of Blacks and Jews in the old White Democrat South?

To: Tell It Right

Over the years I’ve had the misfortune to work with various groups of Government employees. There have been blacks that have been just perfectly fine and others that were just Useless Whinners. Equally there have been whites that were just fine and others that were Useless Whinners. It was a crapshoot which one you would run into, but it was at least consistent odds.

Common trait among the Useless Whinners, black or white, was they were lazy, incompetent, bigoted, and racist. Perpetual Victims.

Government is actively promoting racism and discrimination against whites. Look at all the DEI hires. They fit into ONE GROUP and are Mean Spirited Bigoted Racists above all!!!

People aren’t equal. They just have equal rights. Their abilities, efforts, and luck control their destiny.

I would say that 95% of “news” isn’t news.
It’s bullshit, opinions, and stories about whores and fags…celebrities.

A “poll” taken of idiots who are standing around taking selfies of themselves and Tater Swuft while their history, their country and their children are being destroyed. But hey! When they aren’t doing that, they’re all up at Yellowstone being gored by buffalo or at Grand Canyon falling over the edge.

That’s how it’s supposed to be, not how it is.
Skewing reality causes greater long term issues.
Aside from the undeserving hires and promotions, the actual deserving women and minorities will always be looked at sideways.
Did they deserve that spot, or are they tokens?
This propagates through corporations.

No, blacks treat Whites and Asians with a great deal of hate. Blacks are very racist.

“Stubbornly?”

Yes, and that “self-identified” nonsense is also there and where I stopped reading.
