So I'm watching fox and tucker. I feel like I'm being mentally flogged.

I had both cnn and msnbc on at different times and not once did I hear either of those talking heads use the word racism but when I switched over to fox and tucker it was a completely different story. From what I gathered white folks are tired of being called racists and we should just move on and away from the demon critical race theory idea. In the twenty minutes or so of watching him he must have said racism or racist at least a half dozen times. So white folks don't want our horrible real history taught in school and how whites for over a hundred years enslaved and beat and raped their black slaves, that's a no-no and it's no big thing to a lot of folks today. Let bygones be bygones they say. Let me beat the collective you for twenty years and see just how forgiving the collective you are then.

It's the ginormous conservative victim card. They can't live without it.

I think that parts of FOX and the Tucker thing are a natural but unfortunate reaction to gains minorities have made over the years, plus some excesses of the left on the question of race. The left tends to think “We have arrived! Nothing is to be the same again” — while the right freaks out at the end of the world.

For a great send up of this sort of issue in US culture, search for “Don Pauly” and Saturday Night Live. An Italian gangster comes home from 20 years in jail and is puzzled by his Mafia buddies’ political correctness.
 
Mentally flogged?

My MIL used to have it on a lot (Trump finally started changing her mind), but I swear... I didn't feel merely flogged. I felt like I was savaged by a dead sheep that somehow managed to stay both scared and pissed about everything

funny I just watched tonight's show and didn't hear him say that at all. I heard him talk about dems MASQUERADING as racists to hurt the Youngkin campaign in VA, though.

Obviously they didn't report the fact that Terry felt we had too many white teachers.

When I went to school in the 50's we learned about slavery, but I was not told I was evil for being white.
Will the schools teach that native Americans owned slaves or is it just white people who are evil for the sins of 100 years ago.
Why does the left continue to fuel the fire of division and hate?

It's how they roll.

Youngkin stole away a lot of black voters in case you missed it last night.

Virginia voted in it's first Black female Lt. Governor last night just in case you missed that too.

Virginia's very popular Black ex Governor Douglas Wilder (D) had a lot of positive comments on Youngkin

Virginia put in quite a few minority delegates last night in case you missed that also.

It seems that your usual party line race crap doesn't pass the smell test. :ROFLMAO:

In my experience, no group talks about racism more than old white conservatives, and it isn't close.

Fox knows its audience.

Ever wonder if folks are getting just a bit tired of being told that history is their fault for no reason other than their skin color?
 
If talking about race were a basketball game, old white conservatives would be breaking backboards like Shaq and hitting half-court threes blindfolded.

They'd turn the game into a Space Jam sequel. The scoreboard would be singing like a slot machine.

It's true. Racists don't want anyone talking about race unless they're screaming a racial epitaph.

Were your hearing aids on?

It always amazes me how people are so blinded by ideology that they refuse to see the obvious.

Because racism still exists.

Oh please, I live in the south and you're trying to convince me racism is not alive and well in america?
 
No, I'm not. Why did you think I was?
From your previous comment about white folks being tired of hearing about something they had no part in, except keeping that racism alive. I married a woman from louisiana and let me tell you, in the small town my ex wife is from, racism is alive and well. Blacks are niggers, plain and simple.

People tend to get a little sensitive to it when they are continually accused of being racists.

Conservatives are such ****ing assholes and complete fascists. The entire history of this country is full of messed up examples of racism and they want to white wash it because lets be real, they are racist assholes and just don't want anybody to see it or criticize it. I'm white and I don't feel guilty because I'm not a racist assholes so why feel guilty? Now they are going to whitewash history even more.

Such complete scumbags

Nothing funny about dishonesty

Boo hoo, sorry for them. Black folks get a bit upset that their two hundred years of being slaves is brushed under the carpet by whites. Look at the reaction to teaching critical race theory. It's almost like slavery didn't exist to some.

Boo hoo, sorry for blacks who think they are entitled to something extra because some of their ancestors may have been mistreated.

That is exactly right, I don't feel guilty because I am not a racist asshole, and I tire of people like you telling me I am.
