The general disconnect on race isn't being racist, its whats defined as "racism"

Contrary to conventional wisdom, to be a racist, you need not don a Ku Klux Klan hood, yell the n-word abrasively, or boldly defend white supremacy with your chest out. And yes, racists can have friends and lovers of color, enjoy black culture, and give back to diverse causes — because none of that can absolve them of problematic behavior. This also means that both Democrats and Republicans can be racists regardless of how actively they support certain political ideologies.
Racism can be as simple as white people socially, institutionally and/or culturally promoting ideas or enforcing norms that systemically benefit them above other races. Because white people are currently the politically dominant race — their centuries of global imperialism, colonialism and genocide have afforded them a disproportionate advantage over people of color — racism can’t be considered a two-way street.
Any notion that suggests white people are the only "racists" is inherently false and only serves as a cover for the black community to practice its own forms of racism.
Many of the left's mobs are just as hateful as the KKK ever was yet its glassed over as some type of "holy resistance to the evils of racism."
Many are exactly what they claim to hate so much.

The left loves to take language and twist it to their advantage. That's what the left has done to the word "racism." I always knew it was pure bullshite that Black people can't be racist. Anyone can be racist.

People can be racist, even to members of their own race.

I Won’t Vote for Joe Biden, the Lesser Racist, Until I Have To in November
That idiot spent three quarters of that article listing all the racist shite Joe Biden has done and still came to the unsupported claim that Trump is more racist. Someone take his absentee ballot, he's too stupid to vote.

Being white means you are racist to the left.

After not reading a word of your original post. Ill just go ahead and tell you if you are white you are racist. This is the news. Now i will urge you to turn that shite off and cancel the poison that is cable. And block out all that noise. Facebook and twitter too. Block it out. Its poison

general disconnect on race
“Racism” will always exist because it’s based on mostly perception and not reality. When you don’t like something and you think it’s because of racism, how can it go away?
The real disconnect is that blacks who only barely voted for trump and yet somehow they want Trump to help them. How can you not vote for a person and yet think that person owes you?

I’m so sick of hearing this shite. I accept it. I embrace it. So what. Get over it. How about marrying the mother of your children . Help them do their homework. Spend your weekend doing things with your family. Maybe then your kids won’t grow up to be bitter loser like the author.

Liberal women, black and white, are the biggest pos racists on the planet. You haven't lived until you've been called every name in the book by a black woman trying to cut in the grocery store check out line.

What is defined as racism in the year 2020:
Racist: bedrooms, pancake syrup, Abraham Lincoln, The 4th of July, being quiet and keeping to yourself (complicit), butter, bread, milk, standing for the national anthem.
Not Racist: Segregation/ Seperate but Equal, discrimination, burning down Black communities, genocide, hate speech

Racist or racism are just tossed around by Blacks and the left because those words tend to put people immediately on the defensive. It's as if the mere words carry some sort of special power that outranks any argument.
It doesn't stop there.
Argue against BLM? You must be a White Supremacist or the new term, White Nationalist. Word games, and bait. Don't take it, just understand it's becoming a very shallow accusation.

This is nothing more than justification for one group to be as racist as it can get and also excusing whatever behaviors stem from it.

One of the most obvious examples is labeling stereotyping as racism.

Leftists RAGE against the nature of man. It is an inherently infantile creed, the opposite of wisdom, 100% raging narcissism wrapped in a thin veneer of Utopian platitudes.
The “ solution “ ALREADY exists- equal protection under the law , and let the people sort out the rest.
