You've been away, so maybe you don't know the new rules around here, but Oro over there now tells us when we're supposed to be worried about something, and whether or not something is racist. You just have to deal with it, that's the way things are.
After some thought you guys do have a point. I was whitesplaining. It is impossible to truly understand how it feels to look to be on the receiving end of racism. I'm sincerely saying this.
I approached the challenge of defending a broad brush painting of the Trump movement in a rhetorical style of a defense attorney. The use of a scale was a vehicle to say that certain media entities were driving certain statements up the scale. Thus making the movement more of a monster than it actually was.
Headache was the only poster to acknowledge my assertion in shorter form.
Not Racist
Ignorant
Racist
As a result of the conversation I have realized that I cannot fully say what is or isn't racist to a person.
Glad to know. With any debate or real life conversation in the future I have a new approach.
At the same point. We cannot exclude or diminish people from having an intellectual conversation on important sociological aspects of society because of their skin color and experience in life.
