They can refer to Smollet, but even referencing SLAVERY is woke lol
They can refer to Smollet, but even referencing SLAVERY is woke lolLOL, Jussie Smollett, It is really ridiculous to base your entire summary of liberalism and race on an isolated incident. Sad
So you just can’t handle the truth. You just want to focus on Jussie Smollett, LOLI didn't read the story because I considered the source.
I don't have an easy answer for you other than to realize that perception and reality are often two different things.Yes it is. When you grow up experiencing racism every day, suffering judgement and prejudice from the people who are supposed to love you, over something you can't control, it changes you permanently. How do you move forward from that? How do you trust again? How do you stop seeing racism everywhere? It's not easy.
Facts aren’t race baiting. You rather the left ignore your racist shit then bring it out. Tell you what, MAGA. If you don’t want the left to talk about race, then stop being racistNo, I blame you for your idiotic race baiting.
I really doubt that you even careI fight it wherever I see it.
True, but your post wasn't a fact. It was, in fact, race baiting.Facts aren’t race baiting.
Since you're wondering about my preference, no, that's wrong. I'd rather they engage in adult-level conversation and not resort to ad hominem, as you have done here.You rather the left ignore your racist shit then bring it out.
See what I mean?Tell you what, MAGA. If you don’t want the left to talk about race, then stop being racist
Of course you doubt I care. If you didn't, you'd have to question your own opinions and assertions about me and realize they could be wrong, and my goodness, you're not going to do that.I really doubt that you even care
Experience and perception are two different things. It’s like a man telling a woman how it feels to have a babyI don't have an easy answer for you other than to realize that perception and reality are often two different things.
Of course, and our perception of reality is informed by the experiences we accumulate during our lives. There is no ultimate truth out there. Just different people's perceptions of it. People who have experienced racism first hand are more likely to see it again in the future, while people who haven't are more likely to miss it.I don't have an easy answer for you other than to realize that perception and reality are often two different things.
What I see is that you believe race baiting exists, but racism doesn’t. What I see is that you don’t want to talk about the racist shit that goes on and anyone who does is race baiting. What I see is that you just want liberals to shut up about racial discrimination and pretend it doesn’t exist.True, but your post wasn't a fact. It was, in fact, race baiting.

See what I mean?
My opinion of you is based on what you postOf course you doubt I care. If you didn't, you'd have to question your own opinions and assertions about me and realize they could be wrong, and my goodness, you're not going to do that.
Not an effective analogy since only women can give birth yet anyone can experience racism.Experience and perception are two different things. It’s like a man telling a woman how it feels to have a baby
I believe racism exists. Where I differ with many on the left is the degree to which it's an influence on American daily life in 2025.What I see is that you believe race baiting exists, but racism doesn’t. What I see is that you don’t want to talk about the racist shit that goes on and anyone who does is race baiting. What I see is that you just want liberals to shut up about racial discrimination and pretend it doesn’t exist.
No, it isn't. It's based on what you want to believe of me, not what I've written.My opinion of you is based on what you post
Close but your first post wins the prize for dumbest and most ignorant.A little too close to home?
You can’t experience racism in America if you are a white male. You were never put in your place because of Jim Crow laws practiced both in the North and South. You were never stopped by the police due to racial profiling. You were never perceived as a bad person or a dumb person due to the color of your skin. You were never put in a general category because someone in your race did something bad. So don’t pretend that your made up bull shit about “experiencing racism “ is a valid argument. It’s notNot an effective analogy since only women can give birth yet anyone can experience racism.

Not really a concern as you don't have a reputation for well reasoned argument on this site.Close but your first post wins the prize for dumbest and most ignorant.
You sure as hell don't. Just look at the posts related to this article.Not really a concern as you don't have a reputation for well reasoned argument on this site.
I don't claim to always be right, but I argue in good faith and I'm a far more objective commenter on this site than are you.You sure as hell don't. Just look at the posts related to this article.
No, that is not racism and I am sure you never experienced that. That is an isolated incident of bigotry. Racism has to do with power and control where if you were beat up because you were white and the judge let off the black guys because your white life didn’t matter as much as the black guys who beat you upSo if a white man is beaten up for no other reason than the color of his skin, he has not experienced racism?
You keep believing that if it makes you happy.I don't claim to always be right, but I argue in good faith and I'm a far more objective commenter on this site than are you.
You're describing institutional racism, and in that sense, you're right. There is virtually no institutional racism targeted against whites in the US (though there is certainly institutionalized racial discrimination targeted at whites, but that's a different matter).No, that is not racism and I am sure you never experienced that. That is an isolated incident of bigotry.

All I know about you is what you post.No, it isn't. It's based on what you want to believe of me, not what I've written.
