Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina made an eloquent, uplifting speech on behalf of Republicans, in response to Joe Biden's quasi–State of the union address.
He spoke of racial grievances, real ones, including a recent instance when the Washington Post's bigfoot fact-checker Glenn Kessler attempted to debunk Scott's impoverished background in the Jim Crow South as somehow "privileged," with revolting claims that Scott "had it easy," which was beyond horsehockey. Scott left egg all over Kessler's face.
Scott spoke kindly of single mothers, such as his own. He spoke of his own failures and successes, and he blasted Biden for his divisive diktats in his first 100 days, pointing out the many occasions when Republicans cooperated with Democrats and their big spending plans. He defended Georgia's vote integrity law and focused on re-opening schools, putting the blame where it belonged: on greedy teachers' unions. He radiated honesty and sincerity, which stood in stark contrast to fraudy, mendacious Joe, who came off like the banjo-player in Deliverance as he spoke.
It was a well received speech, based on pundit after-talk on the nets. The transcript can be read here.
That didn't sit well with the left, which, true to form, reverted to their roots, put on their white hoods, and hurled nakedly racist insults at Scott as if to shame him for attempting to find common ground with Democrats and speak truth to power.

80 million we need to do our homework and rid ourselves of these masked idiots who will do everything to lie and cheat you, they all must go, all of them!
They are just throwing him up there because he’s blac, “See, were not racist”. He’s another Rino that would turn against us for 30 pieces of silver
After reading comments here lately the hate-filled people aren't all in the Democrat camp.
So, A Black man ( Articulate and clean as Biden might quip) says we aren’t as racist as the Left makes us out to be and, Lo and Behold! the Left attacks him with racist epithets...
Can’t make this crap up...
All of this simply proves that even though the USA is not racist, Leftists, indeed, are racist.
Give some examples like this.
