Racism is on the rise: as a strategy to shut down dissent and debate.
During the election we saw the beginnings of this strategy tested, and it worked. If you disagree with Barack Obama, you must be a racist. This attack was used against Hillary Clinton and these days it is turned against everyone from average citizens who dare protest against our Dear Leader to elected representatives who make the same mistake.
To disagree with Barack Obama is to be called a racist.
I have mentioned before that the constant mewling of the victim culture leads to this inevitable end. We see the same arguments, the same delusions and the same pattern of attack whatever the victim group be it sexism or racism that is the vehicle. The simple reality is that like the charges of sexism the race card simply won’t ever go away.
Fear of Racism is profitable, both politically and financially. Ask Obama. Ask ACORN. Ask Kanye West.
The problem for the folks tossing the race card around with wild abandon is that at some point if you keep pretending you care about being “post racial” and stopping “racially motivated” violence someone will wonder why you only seem concerned with one race. Then you have to dance around and deflect attention as hard as you can. Or you can double down, and blame your chosen oppressor for that too.
I could spend this whole post (and many more) discussing the insane double standards used int he current debate / discussion on race but I’ll just give you one that is representative and easy to understand. Remember the Kanye West stupidity? If not, go check out the post and then come back: I’ll wait.
Now, imagine that incident with flipped races:
“It’s the Country Music Awards. A black female performer is accepting her first-ever award. She’s happy and a bit surprised; her style of music doesn’t usually win Country Music Awards. Halfway through her emotional acceptance speech, a white male country music singer runs up on stage, grabs the microphone from her, and announces that another woman should have won, a white woman”“a “real” country singer”“instead of the underdog black woman.” quote from biggovernment.com
Do you really think we wouldn’t be hearing screaming about racism? Of course we would. Because that suits the narrative pivotal to keeping huge sections of the government in power that they need to be elected and re-elected to save us all from our innate evil.
All they need to do is convince us to accept the mantle of guilt and toil under the yoke of earning their blessing.
Screw that. Screw them.
Exhibit A, B, C , D, or whatever for the prosecution…

Clearly, not everyone protesting is a racist. But there's certainly an element that's overtly racist, who aren't rebuked, and beyond that, there's a whole lot of stuff that looks subconsciously racist, like the muslim furor, the born in Kenya argument, the fact that many of these people hate the man so much they see nothing silly about claiming he'll destroy the country, or comparing him to Hitler, over a plan to provide healthcare to the poor. If he'd been willing to, oh, say, try and have a UN plane shot down over iraqi airspace, maybe I could get the fury. Healthcare that almost certainly won't cost any of the protestors more than .5% of their income, not so much.
You're right Andy…cause no one would EVER make claims that a white president is destroying the country or compare a white president to Hitler…nah, that'd never happen.
What is so absurd! Typically the arogance and ignorance as I read the first paragrahs about racism. First of all racsim is alive and well the election proved this fact in an overwhelming fashion,most people said they would nevr vote for a black man without understanding anything about his politics. Secondly, Kanye West actons was stupid, but it doesn't speak for every black person in Amerca. Most times ignorance lies heavily among people who put the actions of a few individuals on an entire race.
As a successful,educated black man I still get racially profiled by officers which results in complaints and lawsuits paid out before the court date. Furthermore, I would like to state, I have friends and assciates of every nationality whom agree wihth my level of consciousness. In fact, I never viewed every caucasion person as a racist because I know its the individual who's ignorant not the race. Although, what confuses me is Barack obama hasn't been in office for one year yet ,but you dummies expect him to fix a economy that George W.Bush controlled and f… up for the last 8 years. For example, the bull s… war and the attack he orchestrated on US soil (visit the "LOOSE CHANGE" website) OH!!….. and while you're at it, check on his status with the secret society group labled"THE SKULL of BONES" to see how his best interest served our country.
How many protesters stood at attention against Bush? I gyess it was okay for him to not get impeached after being greedy and organizing a war based on his family's succes in the oil business. President Bill Clinton gets impeached for lying about a sexual affair that didn't kill anyone!
