Yeah the left stopped pretending to not be racist quite some time ago. It makes it even funnier when they try to deflect and project like "b-b-b-but the conservatives are the REAL racists!!!11"

Why back someone with similar political beliefs as you when you could back someone that looks like you?!?

It's not just that they hate white people, they keep trying to keep people of their own race in their own little box and will persecute anyone who tries to even tow the line.

Yeah, honestly, this is one of the problems that sits deep within the black community. Our parents, their parents, their grandparents, etc. grew up in an era of government sanctioned discrimination and hatred from white people.

My parents' generation were the ones to be growing up before the civil rights movement and were teenagers and young adults during/after the civil rights movement, desegregation, etc., so they still harbor a lot of distrust an resentment towards white people.

They raised their children (my generation) with that distrust and resentment, which means those same sentiments passed down to a lot of us, with some people feeling stronger about it than others.

I definitely grew up in better times than my parents did, but I still experienced racism growing up which gave validity to the sentiments my parents sometimes expressed about white people and "their" hatred towards us. Then you see stuff like the Charles Kinsey shooting, the court case about it, the Botham Jean case, the Atatiana Jefferson case, etc., and it only fans those flames that were never really extinguished.

The United States as a whole is a lot better than it used to be for minorities, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Sundown towns still exist and there are documented cases of people in power being secretly either being card carrying members or showing a lot of affection for hate groups.

It's certainly not the right asking those types of racist, ageist, and sexist identitarian questions, is it.

I'm sure the alt right does, but with respect to this specific interview it is a leftist. And you let me know when a center or right publication worth anything is so flagrant in asking these blatantly racist, sexist, and ageist questions.

The left mass media gets away with it all the time. It is the orthodox perspective to have in academia or mass media.

The left is all about checkboxes these days. Racist, no principals, no morals and no sense of direction.

A lot of weak-minded people think this way too. The push for the support of incompetent people because they're incompetent themselves.

@thanosibe
The term came from signs posted that "colored people" had to leave town by sundown. Essentially, the towns were generally inhospitable to people of color in the daytime. At night, though, your safety is much more at risk if you're a person of color.

Ah ok, thanks. I had not heard that term used before.

The republican primary in the last election had about as much diversity.
A black neurosurgeon (Carson)
A cuban (Rubio)
An indian (Jindal)
A woman (Fiorina)
Old candidates, young candidates, christian conservatives, libertarians, jabba the hutt, the zodiac killer....

I'm 100% with everything you've said here, but what does this have to do with CBS asking a pro-labor woman of color why she supports the person whose policies and ideology most closely resemble hers just because he's an old white man? I really don't think their motivation genuinely has to do with distrust of white people as a group.


I thought it was a similar line of thinking.
