There's no other accusation one can make that has as low a bar for proof than racism does in the modern-day, so if you ever want to easily mudsling your opponent, calling them a racist really is the most effective way to do that.

You don't ever have to have done or said anything racist in order to get called racist, and for a lot of progressives to buy it. See the cartoon some progressive made below:

iZHr4zP

Effectively, any action or opinion that is not in-line with post-modern progressive thinking falls within the borders of racism, according to them. But really, the issue is not racism. Progressives are and will be as racist as anybody; listen to things that they say about Ben Carson or what Louis Farrakhan (whom the Democrats idolize) has to say about jews. No, what "racist" actually just means is "bad person". No one likes racists, because the majority of people define racism as any action or thought that unfairly judges people because of their race, which is unquestionably a bad thing by anyone's measure. Because of the attempt to redefine racism to include even an assertion that you are not a racist, there's quite literally no way to avoid the accusation by their ridiculous definition. So when the layperson hears that so-and-so is a racist on some rag like the Guardian, assuming they mean racism in the normal way that most people believe it to mean, they would immediately have a negative reaction to that person even if they aren't a racist.

tl;dr: progressives only care about racism insofar as they can use it as a blunt object to slander anyone who disagrees with them.

I think the idea of being derogatory is what gets to most people. Attackers just want to assign negative connotations to people, and the attacked just don't want the title because it has bad connotations.

I know someone who is by definition racist, but he refuses the label. Similarly, some SJWs will call anyone who disagrees a Nazi. I don't think people really care about the actual definitions. Just the feelings behind the words.

i mean, if you have a whole slew of people accusing you of something one approach is to dismiss everything everyone is saying because they're all wrong. another approach is to listen to what they say and consider if maybe your behavior led to those accusations. maybe realize that some things you said or did had implications you didn't intend and that's why people make these accusations against you.

or you can just bury your head in the sand and blame the rest of the world without ever looking inward at your own actions.

your life, your choice.

In a topic dedicated to the notion that allegations of racism are thrown about too freely, this sentence feels out of place. Ben Carson gets criticized because he's a moron, and the idea that "the Democrats" idolize Farrakhan is ludicrous hyperbole.

In a topic dedicated to the notion that allegations of racism are thrown about too freely, this sentence feels out of place. Ben Carson gets criticized because he's a moron, and the idea that like more than two Democrats idolize Farrakhan is ludicrous hyperbole.

Ben Carson gets called a "house n*****" and an "Uncle T**" frequently by progressives. So do Larry Elder, Michael Steele, Herman Cain, etc etc. Those are unquestionably racist slurs and anyone who uses them is unquestionably a racist.

As for Louis Farrakhan being embraced by Democrats,

http://dailycaller.com/2018/03/10/democrats-denounce-louis-farrakhan/

Very, very few Democrats have ever denounced Farrakhan, even after a bunch of them met with him. Imagine if Republicans never denounced David Duke. That's how bad this makes Democrats look.

I'll help you out; as far as I can tell, pointing out statistical realities that explain why racism has nothing to do with, say, the black population in prison is where shit like that comes from on this board. Using data to explain why racism isn't a sufficient explanation for a phenomenon isn't racist, but according to a lot of the usual suspects on this board, it is. The leftists on this board aren't nearly as far-gone as a lot of the leftists out there, of course.

that's not what im saying.

if you post statistics showing incarceration rates of a certain race and then act gleeful about it, i can see why people would consider that racist.

im not saying that's what you've done, im trying to give an example of how context and attitude can affect the interpretation/reception of a statement. maybe people take issue with things like that?

Gleeful? No. There's no reason why I would be happy that so much of my taxes needs to go to prisons. I do take glee in debating though, and watching people flounder after they realize their argument is wrong.

If you can't think of a single example of me saying anything racist and can only guess at why you have this perception of me, maybe it's time to look inward and ask why you have that impression of me at all.
