Sick of the incessant thinly veiled racism in GDP


A large majority of the posts have something to do with black voters. They either are doing it on purpose or they are ****ing clueless. They alert stalk anybody who tries to point out how insulting they are being by doing this.

Yup! They hate the negro! Those hard core leftists who live in the bubble of DU hate the black person! They are systematically stalking black posters and alerting on them to silence the black voice! When are you slaves to Skinner's Hillary machine going to finally have enough and revolt!

[side note~ one of the greatest movies about the Civil War and the African Americans who took part in it. This scene always puts chills up my spine because I have sat with my men on the evening before going into battle and the emotions in this movie scene does more to explain and depict the love and brotherhood of the soldier in war have toward each other.

and its got Morgan Freeman.]

31. Of course. Because ONLY Hillary Clinton and her supporters are racists. Bernie Sanders and his fans,

on the other hand, are the only ones who are concerned with racism and have our best interests at heart. Bernie Sanders is running far behind with the black vote, so of course, his fanatics are pretending to give a shit about black people. They don't!

These same people are the ones who tell black people to shut up and sit down when we made claims about racism. Now that their candidate is supposedly a champion for civil rights, suddenly they are SOOOO concerned about racism against blacks.

The hypocrisy is astonishing, but I should not be surprised. None of us should be surprised.

42. Gah now we have another

Race Baiting thread about black people not being 'thinkers' if they support Clinton.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY is that allowed at DU but if an article about white people not being 'thinkers' if they support Clinton or Trump gets posted -

It gets hidden for being racist?

53. Trash it. DU will immediately become a better place to be

I trashed that forum the day it was created. I remember 2008 entirely too well.

Playing the Race Card has been a staple tactic among Libs and Progs for years, if not decades. Are they really so silly and ignorant of human nature that they didn't foresee the tactic being used among and on themselves?!

I think they have just become so accustomed to using it as an effective weapon they had no concept of it being used against them. Like anyone who has had their way for so long with little to no opposition, they have become complacent and unable to handle adversity.

Blacks hate crazy bernie because he won`t single them out to receive special favors.

**** all the racists at DU, even the black ones.  None of them objected to the racist terms applied to conservative blacks, because they are conservatives, and were being called that by liberals.

Why should it bother one liberal when another liberal is using racist terms because they disagree on which candidate is better?

Face it, all blacks that keep voting for democrats, are the real Uncle Toms. They're the ones kissing the masters foot and voting for him while they get crumbs tossed to them.

Black liberals are by definition uncle toms, all of them.

They are using the tactics against themselves that they have used on the opposition forever. I take great joy in watching them implode.

They can call people Uncle Tom's, but by God don't call them one, even if they are.
