And slavery is basically still legal in China today. Completely insane that that poster would even try to equate the two in any way.


Liberals are completely insane.

So she just sits home and collects a very large paycheck.
The diversity officer was the biggest expansion of wasteful human resources department we have seen in a while.

Meanwhile, that's one person's comments. I have years of examples of Republicans doing what I said. Try again x1,000.

Since countries are not a race and their economic well being benefits all citizens, singling out one over the other is actually patriotic.
Again... you guys are trading "racism" at the Chinese for "racism" at Whites. It doesn't matter if you want to defend it under patriotism or jingoism. There's NO difference between the two.

Again... the same logic you're using to cry about racism applies to you crying about the Chinese. If it's fine for America to prioritize American vendors for the good of the American community, it's also fine for Black America to prioritize Black vendors for the good of the Black community.

It's real transparent when you guys don't have an argument and have to resort to "nuh-uh. That's you guys."

.
When people refer to Chinese they are referring to products made in China, not a race. See the difference. Buy American not Russian made products, is that racist. The product made in said country could be sold in a American business owned by a white person, a black person, an Asian person, an Indian person, etc.

If you say only buy those cheap made Chinese products from a black owned business or a white owned business, thats racist.

Its really not that had of a concept.

You apparently misread or misunderstood my post.

Just like us buying American to keep our money and resources here in America to increase jobs and our economic power, so too can minorities say "hey, instead of abandoning the community I grew up in now that I have some economic power, let me invest in my local community".

As I said in the post you replied to, investing in your local community is different than boycotting or refusing to patronize businesses based on the skin color of the owner.

Only if buying girl scout cookies is ageism. "Don't buy a cheaper, fresher, better quality product at the locally owned bakery because they are run by people who are too old."

You don't understand economics so instead you call it racism.

Applying it to an embarrassingly inane "point" is not how it is used.
