Listen, racists...
The Rude Pundit:

Listen, racists who use MLK's judge by the "content of their character," not "the color of their skin" to justify your racism: King wasn't talking about your children. He was talking about his children. He was saying that whites judge them by skin color and whites need to change.

The full line: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." Stop forgetting about that first part like it's the beginning of the 2nd Amendment.

That line is actually specifically about white privilege, that white kids get judged in a way that benefits them and non-white kids, again, specifically, his non-white kids get judged in a way that harms them.

The dream is that whites will evolve, not that non-whites will shut up about wanting equality and about wanting their history told truthfully. That's the dream of racists. Leave Martin Luther King out of your dreams.

Sp... he wasn't talking about ALL children, of any race... he was only talking about his own?

6. I doubt he was an unfair man, and he did not see these times

He surely did not think that judging others by the color of their skin was a viable solution. Of course though, I've been told I don't get to interpret what he said, due to skin color.

Leave it to the Kaput (KPete) primitive to distort Martin Luther King's words.

If he were alive today, MLK Jr. would be a conservative.

It takes a DUmmie to pretzellate MLK’s wise words into an attack on people acknowledging their wisdom. By the time MLK spoke them my parents had taught that view of people by how they lived and worked with people. But MLK spoke that wisdom eloquently.

No matter how you pretzellate and game words, Critical Race Theory is a diametric rejection of what MLK spoke.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

If that was true, then he wasn't being very inclusive....

Either all people are to be judged by their character and not their skin color or the whole statement was worthless rhetoric.

Liberals/Progs have used/mis-used the term Racist so much now it no longer has any meaning.

Ah, the lily-white kaput primitive who lives in gated splendor, and who hires illegal aliens for household help because she can pay them less than minimum wage without fear of being reported, preaching to the rest of we white people about racism.

She instructs her gardener, during those hot San Diego summer afternoons, to suck water from the garden hose rather than coming into the kitchen to get a glass of it at the sink; her cook to use the restroom at the convenience store around the corner so she won't stink up Katherine's bathroom; and she strip-searches the maid at quitting time every day to be sure nothing's being stolen.

Sounds pretty non-racist to me.

And the tolerant, enlightened, totally- not- racist DUmmies and their ilk would be openly showering him with such terms of endearment as "Uncle Tom," "Race Traitor," "Oreo," and "House N*gg*r."

He certainly would be now.  Jackie Robinson certainly was a Republican, as he campaigned for Barry Goldwater.  JFK would not be allowed in the Democrat Party anymore, other than his philandering which is still applauded for politicians of that stripe.

To quote or paraphrase syndicated radio host Chris Plante, Lee Harvey Oswald is more representative of the Democrat Party now than JFK is.
