Trump is not racist: Change my mind

It’s ok to be white

 

Exactly, it's not Good. It's not great. It's not fantastic. It's just OK. (same as everybody else)

 

I didn't say "The Whole Race" and don't understand why you always generalize things. I said "seldom" which clears indicates "some" but not "all" of the White population. There are lots of nice Whites in Europe. When I was in Napoli, I met some nice Whites.

 

No … I called you out, because you often try to put words in another man's statement.

 

If guys like you stop speaking down to guys like me, then guys like me will treat you in an … alternative way.

 

It's OK to be Brown

 

That's seriously pathetic. Respect is earned, not gifted. It's going to be a long wait if you think it will ever pan out this way. Conquerors don't generally hand over the keys just to make everybody else feel better.

One of the few consistencies I've seen from you is your disdain for people based on their color, as long as they're white. I'm not inclined to reward that kind of shit.

 

Nobody said otherwise...

 

You did actually.

 

I think he was specifically talking about white christians in the american midwest. But I agree, some of is unnuanced angry ramblings against such groups of people in general at times makes him sound just as stupid as the people he pisses on.

 

Similarly, if the Whites you defend don't stop saying things like "Kill them all and let God sort them out" and "Kick their ass and take their gas" then my attitude will not change much. Do you understand? Have you taken time to read what 6 has said about Muslims and their prophet?

 

Maybe in another post but not the response to yours?

 

I'm amazed at how many people today endorse the post-modernist redefinition of racism as a whites-only enterprise of hate, power and privilege. With this point of view, a poor 75 year old white janitor in a forgotten corner of flyover country is just as much of an heir of racist evil as some wealthy, unscrupulous venture capitalist who finances sweat shops in the Third World.

But the really amazing part is how so many have convinced themselves that groups like the decaying KKK are suddenly making a massive comeback, when it's not happening. And the media is more than happy to dog pile the concept even if they don't do their homework. Even when a black man was caught stabbing Jews the media figured out grammatical ways to blame it on Trump and/or white people.

There's a raft of hate out there for anyone who wants to jump on and take a ride. And the real beauty of this hate barge is that hating white people is not only the accepted kind of hate, it's even encouraged. There's no guilt to be had by hating them for their skin color. Because throughout history the claim is made that white people have brought us the worst of the worst (according to interpretations of history). Nobody has coined the term yet, but this is an example of Racial Privilege.

Think about it. If you can willfully, proudly and publicly express your hatred of another race, but they don't get to hate you back, you're privileged. And the people you are hating are quite the opposite of that.

Also, if someone doesn't agree with you, it doesn't necessarily mean they are a racist. It could just as easily be that you are wrong and they recognize that. Try not to have a hard time admitting that. It could also mean they have an entirely different opinion from you. Going directly to a racial causation says more about the problem.

 

Ah, ok then, all better!

 

Funny, you never seem to object about across the board hate of Muslim people. There has been plenty during the last few years on here.

Today the Muslim haters from America are attacking civilians in Baghdad. There plenty of White Americans who support the extermination of ALL Muslims. Your hero Trump has threatened to exterminate entire populations, like Iran and Iraq. He seems to be short in the fortitude department when it comes to North Korea.

 

Muslim power annoys lots of OK White guys.

 

I find it amazing you see so many people do that. I only see a minority of idiots make such statements or try to make that point in a convo. As for the media as in press? They might connect certain racist happenings to Trump and what he said or tweeted, and sometimes in an invalid way too, but yeah often nuanced and for valid reasons as well.

 

Unnuanced statement that means nothing to other people as how you put it now. If it makes sense to you maybe rephrase. Which/what kind of 'muslim power'?
I'll give it a try to: Lots of WESTERN people take issue with power abuse by muslim men that seems facilitated by their religion.

 

I would think it would be pretty fantastic to be the status quo. To have every story told with me in mind, a guarantee that when I turn on the TV I will see people who look like me, to not be seen as different but just to be seen...sounds better than just ok to me

 

I'll get back with you after I finish my whiskey glass.
