what conservatives say that racism doesnt exist? fact is we know it exists on all sides. the trouble is that liberals are pushing racism as a platform to hammer their opponents, and it is starting to fall on deaf ears.

and as i have said many times, if we are going to stop racism, we ALL need to start with the person that looks back at us from the mirror, you included.

I'm only racist against racists. I'm reminded that racism exists every time I see it on TV, or experience it myself. Kinda hard to forget in those cases as much as I'd LOVE for it to be gone.

As for your first question, only those that immediately blame liberals for racism existing. Which is a form of denial

What?!?!

You're racist against racists?

What kind of logic is that?

it doesnt matter who you are racist against, nor for whatever reason you choose to use. you are in fact a racist, as you have plainly admitted.

long ago i looked into the mirror and didnt like what i saw, i looked at my grandfather and my father, and i didnt like the things they said back in the 60s, i was like 9 then. and i resolved that day to not judge people based on their skin color, but rather their character. and i nearly went off on my 7th grade social studies teacher for remarks he was making in class one day, until i realized he was trying to make the class see that racism is wrong, that we need to judge people on their character.

At the Charlottesville white power rally, who were all those white guys with the white power symbols voting for? Clinton? Did they all vote for Obama? Were they all "color blind, we're all just Americans trying to get along" type people?
No one has ever said nor implied that it doesn't exist. That's like liberals pretending that Conservatives don't believe climate change exists.

What we say is that not every single fricken incident is because of racism. You know, sometimes people are just aholes and get their butts handcuffed and thrown in to the back of a squad car. But no one on the left ever wants to admit that. They all want to blame the white man for everything. No one wants to take responsibility for their own actions. They all want to play their cards except the one that says, "I'm a dumbass and got caught" card.

And we just don't believe that climate change is man made.

Now, at one time, a little bird told me that you, specifically, will start threads like this for no other reason than to troll. Based on what you wrote in the OP, I think they might be right.

This was an astonishing admission by theunbrainwashed. Wow.

Also, that was an excellent way to get the point across by your teacher. Nowadays we'd probably have a 2-week summit on what he did with incessant hand-wringing.

So if you are racist against a black racist doesn't that make you an out right racist?

You might want stop before you dig a bigger hole for yourself.

At what point did white racism against blacks, and other people of color, stop? And how did it happen?

Why do liberals whine when they're all lumped together and then turn around and lump all conservatives together in some fiction that only exists in their left wing echo chambers?
