I'm sure he really believes that racism isn't a problem in America. People who deny or downplay the pervasive racism in our society do so for their own reasons, not for "factual" reasons. Who's the real "follower" here? Terrible White People? Dystopia? Sounds like cult lingo to me.Artemisiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11821278711955666073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19923729.post-16085556808925544422015-07-25T11:38:46.188-04:002015-07-25T11:38:46.188-04:00Move to Canada.

I have come to the conclusion that "white supremacism" more correctly and specifically captures the phenomenon. The terms "racism" and "bigot" can be (and are) turned and twisted to describe so-called "black racists," for example. For me, white supremacy is a much clearer and more accurate term -- it cannot be coopted, it is determinative and concrete.<br /><br />Thanks for the essay.Nancy Martlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050411998312741239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19923729.post-29836909375228083192015-07-24T08:34:22.539-04:002015-07-24T08:34:22.539-04:00Speaking of absurd, here we have "Adam Samuel...

Truly amazing! Such an open mind. Yeah, you know what lies in the hearts of men, alive, or dead 150 years. <br /><br />Susan the Bruce is the prototypical, loyal follower of the "Progressive" meme that racism is rampant in these United States of Terrible White People - doing just what the meme masters want her to - created as yet another lever to further "transform" this nation into a dystopian playground.<br /><br /> "There's nothing so absurd that if you repeat it often enough, people will believe it." -- William JamesAdam Samuelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581036993952484706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19923729.post-26006738558022294012015-07-24T07:14:42.700-04:002015-07-24T07:14:42.700-04:00A most excellent, eloquent rendition of "ever...A most excellent, eloquent rendition of "everything I know, I learned in kindergarten".
