Topic	So is Jontron still a big dumb racist?
Rockies 12/08/17 4:34:14 PM #29:	Smarkil posted... As far as I'm concerned, racism only matters when it actually affects your actions. If Jontron didn't hire a black guy because he was black? Yeah, he's definitely a racist. But if he just wants to spout out disingenuous statistics that don't imply any action taken? Not really a racist, but certainly misguided. But most individual racists don't affect much directly unless they're killing people, denying them employment, etc. That still doesn't make it okay because they vote and might affect how other people vote. If Jontron goes and votes for people who make decisions because of disingenuous statistics, I personally think that's a concern. <cite>Rockies posted [p:891840195] in So is Jont...
