Title: How is this racism again?
Post by: Rush on November 15, 2016, 10:32:08 AM
Rush just said, and he's about right from my own digging around elsewhere:

Over the 2012 election Trump got 1% more of the white vote.  He got 7% more of the black vote.

I've watched a lot of Youtube videos of blacks who are for Trump. They make the most intelligent well thought out arguments I have heard from anyone in this election cycle.

But the media tells us the Trump win was a "whitelash", it was all the white racists.  So here are my questions:

How is it racist to vote for a white Trump and against a WHITE Hillary?

How is it racist for a BLACK to vote for Trump?

I'll admit I voted for Trump. Do these people REALLY think I went in that booth and said, "Gee, I hate black people. So I'm going to vote for Trump." 

No.  Here's what I said, "Gee, our retirement fund isn't growing. We are holding on to our jobs by the skin of our teeth. I would like the economy to get better so I can have a comfortable old age. Hillary will continue Obama's dying economy. Trump MIGHT do something different and turn things around. So, I'm voting for Trump."

Trust me. Nobody's skin color even entered my mind. The media reporting has sunk into a deeper shit pool than I've ever seen in my life.

Wow, you type fast!

The vast, vast majority of "leaders" on the Left are despicable people.

The snowflakes in College are being taught that Republicans are bigotted.

When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

The sound you are hearing is the race card finally being overcharged, and frankly it's about damn time.

And more dangerous than any group in the history of civilization:

"Renowned scholar and activist Noam Chomsky declared this week that the GOP and its far-right front-runners are "literally a serious danger to decent human survival.”

Pretty funny coming from an avowed anarchist.

What EXACTLY makes old Norm a 'renowned scholar"??? What I've read of his is pretty thin and terribly one sided.

...

Here where you didn't understand them.

Racism to them is not just a belief in the superiority of one race.  It's also the belief in the normality of one race over another.  So, the fact that you live in a society basically designed by white people, that you were voting for white people  and you consider this normal is racist.

Ok, I'll admit, I don't understand them either, but that's what I'm reading is coming out of Snowlfake U.  Personally, I think calling it a white society or black society is racist, that even thinking that we live in separate societies is wrong.

Where's JB?  I sure would like to see his comments on this election.  I don't  think he was a Hillary fan.
