Your head is in the sand.

It's as bad as ever and this alt right being somewhat legitimized is making it worse

Watching my kids and things that happen at their schools and it seems to me race isn't an issue at all with them, but socioeconomic status is a MUCH bigger deal than it was when I was growing up.

Just my observation. No idea if that applies across the country.

Most of the whining and faux racism comes from the younger generation. Probably because y'all haven't a clue what a real hardship

The Alt Right won't be needed after the 2020 election. The GOP is less culturally conservative and more fiscally and economically driven now, so the Rust Belt flipping Republican will render the racists and the Evangelical Belt obsolete in coming years. Simply put, neither party will have to appeal to the Southern Strategy, but Trump is playing it wise and appealing to that element for the time being.

Just hang on and watch the results.

It is mostly an "if you disagree with a liberal you are 'racist' thing".

The word means nothing now.

Jeff Sessions is "racist" but Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch and Al Sharpton are not?

pure horse shite

Sum 41

I think Millennials will become a very conservative generation, particularly the 90s kids. The ones rioting right now are a small subset of the next generation. The generation after millennials will be even more conservative.

The red pill takers(men and women) are the nonconformists and they are growing. The irrational calls for diversity of skin color at all costs are being rejected

Sharpton certainly seems racist. And I don't think Trump is racist fwiw. The 25-35 crowd in this country does not struggle with racism inside that demographic.. but when the "system" is racist.. shits hard to get rid of.

I encounter quite a few 50-70 year olds who are racist AF

It's part of the human condition...a bad part but a part nonetheless.

It should be mitigated, resisted, and castigated but to imagine it will ever go away is a dream...even MLK said that.
