I’ve never been a SJW.

Entitled people come in after someone else has finished a project and demand to have their piece of the pie for contributing nothing. Here's what I have for you... nothing. How about making something of yourselves rather than trying to tear everyone else down...

That’s your defense? That leftists aren’t calling for blacks to be racist against whites specifically, but racist against anyone who isn’t black?

Sorry, but advocating for non-whites to be considered a half-person and thus get a half-vote, while blacks are considered full people and get a full vote, is as abhorrent as the days that blacks got 3/5 of a vote.

It really is disgusting how racist the far-left is.

This. That’s it. Nothing else needs to be said. Anything beyond this is whining and looking for power and hand outs.

I think that racism is only a problem (again) in this country because the Left tells us it is. The Dems have been working overtime to divide us along race lines and they suffer from "white guilt".



Most people don't care about someones skin tone but attitudes are a problem.



I don't have white guilt but the Left is going to make me have it because they see me, a middle aged white guy that liked Trump as THE problem.

I think you misread my post. It's not a defense.
