The media may be on the verge of rendering racism a meaningless word. They’ve so slaughtered the definition and made the concept so all-encompassing of a white person’s very existence that it has ceased to have any bite. The accusation no longer has any shock value. It doesn’t even have a single definition that two liberals can agree on let alone all of society. It doesn’t have any function other than to be something you call someone who has conviction about ANYTHING even when it doesn’t have to do with skin color.
Essentially, if you have any kind of moral conviction a liberal will take that to mean that somewhere somehow a firm belief in anything that differs from the party line will eventually harm a race other than your own, so you must be racist.
The truth is, only a small group of the most brainwashed, hypnotized liberals would even try to internalize something so nebulous and stupid. To let it actually affect them.
In these riots in cities all over the country the agitators are having the mobs throw around the words Racism, Fascism and Misogyny when most of them can’t even define those words.
Perhaps if you showed some old videos of segregation and blacks not eating in restaurants with whites we could all agree on racism. But to equate a strong nationalist (Trump or Bannon) with being a racist simply because he is white? How many people outside of the hardcore left have any desire to try to internalize and rationalize that argument?
Fascism? I watched a guy roam through the crowds last night. He couldn’t even find one who could tell him what it was off the cuff when asked. If all the skulls full of mush out there in the streets knew what fascism was they would be more careful about being involved in the riots to begin with. Between Trump and Hillary, Trump has no desire for our system to be one-party and he has run the race on the premise of wanting to do everything possible to not be in pointless wars or start WWIII with Russia. So Fascism is pretty much ruled out. Now Hillary, continuing with Obama’s policies pushing us toward war and having all these mush heads out there in the street complaining they must be the only party and need to win instead of Trump? THAT is moving in the direction of fascism rather than away from it.
Misogyny? I had to look up the spelling of it for this post. Certainly not a word anyone uses regularly. I can only think of a couple of examples of men who might actually hate women on the whole. Seriously. Trump has a family including a daughter. He has a good wife (not his first). He had them speak on stage during his rallies. He is considering women for some cabinet positions. So to say he hates women? Misogynist? Seriously?
Did the brilliant liberal academics mean to maybe use the word chauvinist originally? You could at least try to pin that on any guy with a big mouth without needing much evidence. But instead they picked an entirely different word with a definition that is absolutely impossible to square with his life.
Look in the Muslim culture for that. Many Muslim men believe that women are nothing beyond their utility in bringing sons into the world.
The Left loves Muslim culture.
“The media may be on the verge of rendering racism a meaningless word. They’ve so slaughtered the definition and made the concept so all-encompassing of a white person’s very existence that it has ceased to have any bite. “
Bingo!
Just like with riots and protests. They’ve normalized them so that they no longer shock us or horrify us. Now, most people just shrug, post a meme on facebook, and move on with their lives.
Hysteria no longer seems to be working.
Obama has realized this, it seems, after the loss. Notice how he’s changed his tone from hysterical and mocking to portraying the elder statesman act.
Clueless CNN is doubling down on hysteria.
“They’ve so slaughtered the definition and made the concept so all-encompassing of a white person’s very existence that it has ceased to have any bite.”
Agreed. It has essentially become the equivalent of a child calling a classmate at “poopy-face”.
One caveat, though. I have been called a racist more times than I can count, when in fact I should a been called a “bigot”, which I freely admit that I am. It’s actually very amusing to witness the reaction of liberals when I correct them and admit to being a bigot rather than a racist (they are idiots and don’t know the difference between the two words).
A bigot is a person that discriminates based on how they judge another person’s actions, habits, statements, life-style, etc. And when you get down to the cold hard facts of the matter, everybody is a bigot to a certain degree.
And after admitting to being a bigot, and when given the opportunity, I then explain that I refuse to associate with drug-addicts, drug-dealers, thieves, pedophiles, pimps, whores, rapists, career-criminals, gang-bangers, anarchists, idiots and liberals, regardless of their race, creed, color, nation of origin or any other self-identifying characteristic because THAT would be racist). Thus, by the very definition of the word “bigot” I am a bigot and make no apologies for that fact.
