The left equates wearing MAGA hats to actual instances of white supremacy and racism. They are going to make people take actual race motivated incidents less seriously because of all of these false accusations of white supremacy.

They should be ashamed.

A failed has-been actress needs attention. So she shows up at every dumb liberal event and posts shock value comments to get clicks. I don't care what that fricking aging fraud has to say.

I’m not trying to be brave, I don’t believe that one race is superior to another. My point is that white supremacy is bad and the left now tries to “dumb it down” by comparing people supporting Republicans to the Klan and other actual instances of actual racism.

Do you honestly think white supremacy is a serious threat in 2019? That's a legitimate question, by the way, not sarcasm or snarkiness.

I’m not saying white supremacy is or isn’t a high end threat, what I am saying is that the left now equates wearing a MAGA hat to actual racism and white supremacy (such as comparing it to KKK white hoods) and that, to me, makes people take actual racism less seriously.

What actual racism do you see? 'Cause I see a democrat/liberal mindset of identity politics and victimhood that is predicated on the idea that whites are the oppressor and everyone else falls out hierarchically below. It is literally white supremacy, where white guilt is equivalent to original sin and horribly dogmatic. The MAGA hat crap is poor slight of hand to deflect from this. It's boogeyman nonsense.

Most of the real racism comes from the Left. Look at who's running these women's marches, for example. A Muslim extremist and a Jew-hating, Farrakhan-loving black chick were in charge of the one in D.C. over the weekend.

I’m just speaking generally about how the left equates Trump and MAGA hats to real racism (like comparing Trump supporters to neo-Nazis or the Klan).

You said that the hat thing causes real racism to be taken less seriously. The only examples of real racism you've given are the KKK or Nazis. Those things aren't real in 2019.

Racism in general is a lot more subtle than it once was in this country. Most “racism” reported on by the media is, at worst, bias and stereotyping based on race and not true racism. Much is just hard truth they don’t like.

You’re looking at what I’ve said too deeply. I just mean that it is ridiculous to act like supporting Trump or something is the same as actually being a racist and actually disliking people because of their race. The left cries racism without any true racial animus existing.

They actually promote racism every time they utter “ angry old WHITE men.
Also ageism and sexism!
Horrible people that are actually deplorable.

The problem with your post is that you imply there is still racism of whites against blacks. That's not going to fly on this board. The only racism recognized here is black racism against whites.
