Majority of Americans Think Trump is Racist and Below Average or Failure as President

[Ricter]

You win. I am not saying that each and every African American is bad.

Actually, you win. If you believe that then you're not (completely) racist.

 

[Ayn Rand]

You still have not given me a definition of racist. Some one mentioned something about skin hue. Maybe that was you. But that is not it.

You have to admit that both Blacks and Whites are racist. I do.

 

[Ricter]

Perhaps racism is not polar, but a spectrum. Is there anyone completely free of racism? Maybe those blind at birth.

You win. I am not saying that each and every African American is bad. Actually one on one I do not have a problem.

But it is the collective voice that keeps on repeating that - all white people are bad and this and that and whatever.

So this is what I say. Although you, as a Black America, may not have anything to do with this message, it is incumbent upon you to challenge your leadership to propose a better way.

Example - Shooting in Atlanta - Burn down Wendy's. How is this productive?

This should never be acceptable behavior. Not only is it wrong but it continually sends a message that burning things down is OK.

No member of black leadership has condemned this behavior. This has been the case for many years.

Atonement is coming. Many are ready. Hopefully African Americans are.

You are imagining some collective voice of the entire Black population saying white people are bad.

I have never heard that collective voice or some mass movement to get rid of white people.

You are just paranoid that Black man is catching up to you maybe? Blaming them for your own failures? Looking for reasons to justify your hatred of them?

I think there are a lot of people who feel they are not getting all they desire and deserve from this economy*, and damn sure don't want any other group getting more, even if the getting more amounts to just catching up for the latter group.

*And a lot of those people are correct, imo. It's right there in the disconnect between rising productivity, and real income, a disconnect with decades of growth.

So people who are not getting the handouts and free rides from the government are blaming Black people for their misery?

Some do. Others blame immigrants. Others blame our godlessness, esp. abortion and gay marriage.

Anyway, a good job pays more than those handouts and "free rides". I think most people would prefer the good job. But where have all the good jobs gone is a topic for another thread.

 

[Ayn Rand]

No other person can still give me a definition of racism. I say it means that you prefer your own kind.

I am a racist and you are a racist and they are all racists. My mother is a racist, and my brother is a racist, and the lady down the street is a racist.

We are all racists.

Are you a racist? I hope so. If not something is very wrong with you.

Racist - Good Non Racist - Decusional

Who is the most racist group on the planet - African Americans.

If you lack you must be? Intelligent.

What if I am not intelligent?

Then you are Black American.

That's too vague and personal a definition to facilitate useful discussion. Conservatives prefer their own kind. Backpackers prefer their own kind. Etc.

African Americans are a failed social experiment.

You're fucking racist to the core. For those giving you some level of doubt, let's be serious here, on the racist "spectrum" this Ayn Rand character is in the neighborhood of Hitler. He's characterizing entire populations by their appearance. On a morality scale, you don't even rate, I guess there might be some other psychopaths you have a fair degree in common with but most of us just see you as fundamentally evil and damaged in some very basic way.
