I grew up around alot of racism and this is what I know

First, it's a learned concept. If a young person is racist there's a good chance that apple didn't fall too far from the tree.
Second is that it's an excuse for people. Your life sucks? Blame the someone not white or not American or not Christian or not Straight. It's easier to blame someone then say 'perhaps I ****ed up too much on the job and that's why I was fired' or 'perhaps I was such a piece of shit to my girlfriend and that's why she left me'. People don't have shitty lives because these unknown minorities or gays or non-christians are out to get them - they have shitty lives because the wallow in their own self-pity instead of doing something about it.
Finally, these people are so easy to manipulate. They aren't the smartest knives in the drawers - if they were they wouldn't be blaming everyone for their shitty life. And one thing about these people is they couldn't organize worth a damn - usually there's someone else leading the pack, someone looking for a group of dimwits to do their dirty work for them so they can get around screwing over the little folks. Did you ever see the movie 'American History X' with Edward Norton - racists act alot like what you see in the movie and behind a bunch of racist people is usually one smart person who knows enough to get these dumbasses to do their dirty work and stay out of the picture. Sometime it's a local that leads the way, sometimes it's the person spewing propaganda on the radio or TV.
This is what I learned about racism by growing up near racists. I thank the lucky stars for my parents because when I heard racist shit from someone at school they corrected me quite promptly at home!

4. "Your life sucks? Blame the someone not white or not American or not Christian or not Straight."
So true. For too many it's easy to blame those who are born a different color, gender, nationality, ethnicity or sexual orientation. My problems must be caused by a "them", not by the "us" of folks who are like me.
That is just too much. For years DemonRats have been indoctrinating minorities to "blame whitey" for keeping them down. As long as the DemonRats keep doing that to blacks and other minorities then racism will never die off.

"Your life sucks? Blame the someone not white or not American or not Christian or not Straight."
You people blame everyone but yourselves for your suckass lives, just like this crazy man probably did. Look in the mirror.

I grew up in the poorest of conditions with a single mom. I know far more black and Mexican (not Hispanic, Mexicans) people that the DUche will ever know. Lots of us made it into solid middle class/upper middle class. It was all due to the fact that our parents were good people. They set rules and enforced them. Those kids that could do anything are lost causes and I imagine DUmp DUches. Of course this was before there was blaming one's own short comings on others that had nothing to do with it and the real democrat party not the donk-totalitarian party aka communist power brokers.

Two words at the DUmp "personal responsibility" are almost a guarantee of a ban.

Does she not realize that Affirmative Action, a liberal program, is a fine example of racism in action? One group says to the other group "You cannot do ____without our help through set-asides and special help."
The other group says "If it were not for the set-asides and special help we most certainly could not do _____on our own."
-
They blame rich people and Republicans for everything bad in their lives then they dare say this shit? :mental:
-
For a minute there I thought it was another DUmp thread about Clarence Thomas or Allen West.
-
My boys are around Mexicans all day at school. In fact, one of them asked me the other week if we were Mexican. We said no. No bashing, no racism.
Whenever they talk about a black on TV, or one of the few around here, they say "the dark skinned boy (or girl)".
How EVIL of us Republican parents.

I grew up around Democrats and this is what I know
First, they have a herd mentality. While they accuse conservatives who, (as illustrated BY their herd mentality) they think are all Christians. Their whole world view is shattered if people don't fit into their neat little boxes: conservatives...evil, racists, rich or evil, racist, poor, stupid...women conservatives...Christians, under the thumbs of their husbands (they never manage to reflect on all the independent conservative women in the public eye)...black conservatives...house ******s, minstrels, lawn jockeys...gay conservatives...betraying their own kind, should all be shot or die from aids...Latino conservatives...see above.
African Americans...completely unable to cope with life unless their democrat overlords run their lives. All have suffered because of slavery. They need special set asides because they aren't smart enough or ambitious enough or competent enough to make it on their own. This applies to all blacks (except conservatives like Janice Rogers Brown who truly did grow up in a poor share croppers' family) whether they were born here or not. The minute a person with black skin steps onto American soil, he's immediately a victim. Very few are clean and articulate and most that work are waiters and janitors who's goal in life is to serve Biden.
Women...must be pro abortion, must spend their lives pissed off because they've been victims of a patriarchal society (in spite of the fact that they're the biggest shrews on the planet and their men are weak). They must believe there's a war on women and confuse people not wanting to pay for someone's birth control with being anti woman. The fact that there are generic birth control pills for $10 or less and that Planned Parenthood still gives free birth control is completely lost on them.
Gays...victims of oppression, got AIDS because of Ronald Reagan (not unsafe sex with multiple partners every night in bathhouses, in bathrooms of gay bars, etc.), marriage equality is the goal they all want more than anything...as if anyone is stopping them from having a ceremony (there are plenty of liberal pastors, wiccan gods/goddesses, free spirits, unitarians who would be delighted to marry them). If their partner is dying, they can't be by his/her side despite plenty of legal options that will make this possible and many states who acknowledge partner benefits...they even get a little card to put in their wallet they can show anytime they need to. In spite of gays being one of their most protected classes, the worst insult they can make about a conservative is to call them gay, faggot, etc. Evidently, if you believe in gay marriage, it's okay to demean people you're supposed to care about.
Latinos...illegal aliens are indistinguishable from the ones who came here the right way and pay their dues, are gainfully employed and work hard to learn English and become citizens. All Latinos must also be unable to see the difference between legal and illegal, even the ones who have lived here since the freaking 1800's, or they're racist against their own people.
Anyone who jumps out of their little box and veers to the right must have the most vile, hateful, racist, homophobic, sexists slurs they can think of thrown at them. When these "traitors" have small children, even special needs children, they MUST be called vicious names and be the subject of sick rumors as well. This serves two purposes: it keeps those who might be thinking outside the box from going off the plantation because they don't want to have that hate hurled against them. And it allows them their delusions because they don't have to see those who don't think like them as just human beings with a different view of life.
They whine constantly and can barely take care of themselves. They're incredibly selfish but convince themselves they're the most compassionate beings on the planet because they want to take tax dollars from others and give to themselves. Of course, any charitable giving one does after the government has taken their slice of the pie doesn't count so if you prefer that to the government you hate the poor, women, blacks, Hispanics, people without healthcare, gays, or anyone else who thinks they're owed a living because they happen to breath on planet earth.
Profit is bad. All profits should be confiscated by the government. We don't exactly know how businesses will survive without profits to put back into the business, pay off loans, hire more people, invest in research, but that's not important, punishing success is. The rich should have almost all their wealth confiscated, except apparently, rich liberals who spew the right words and pretend they agree with the angry leftist masses. The left doesn't seem to have the intellectual capacity to realize they're being duped by pretty words by people who have no intention of giving up what they have. If they did, they'd all be writing checks to the government or creating a money pool made up of 75% of their money to provide all the socialist goodies to those who are not filthy rich.
They blame everyone else for their lives, nothing is ever their fault. It's their bosses' fault (who for some reason, in spite of being able to start or run a business, manage a department, etc. they're always smarter than). I keep wondering why they don't start their own businesses given their intellectual superiority. It's conservatives fault for...well everything. Capitalism is keeping them down. The 1% is responsible for everything evil but, apparently, not responsible for creating the majority of the jobs.
Their lives are a chaotic mess and they drag their children through the chaos with them, passing on their prejudice for people who don't think exactly like them and setting them up for a life as pathetic as their own. Some of us manage to escape. Thank GOD!

Since racists are so easy to manipulate, why not manipulate them all into voting for Obama?

So you mean like when the blackcommunity blames whitey for all their problems??

Does anyone understand what she babbling about? Do we need a Nadinese translator for this deep dish of stupid?

I know racism too. I grew up in a family of Democrats. Racism was as normal as pot roast on Sunday.
This background is why I am a conservative who votes for Republicans (the party that was formed to fight racists).

She doesn't know jack or shit. all that post is there for is to be just like Gnads and get street cred for when the votes go our way and they can lay the blame on just how racist this country is because we didn't give their guy a second term.
-
Hmph! She knows racism? My family were southern democrats and my dad was a jailer. I heard just about every racist thing you can think of, my family even approved of the klan when it had a location not far from my house.
When I brought home a Mexican girl, I caught nothing but heat. I didn't hear the end of it for a month. I decided they didn't need to know about my dating life after that incident. They would have a stroke if they ever realized that I only ever even went on one date with three of their approved white girls.
