@firestream93 "My definition of racism, is being insulting or derogatory to someone because of the color of their skin. He never mentioned anyone by their skin color.
"
*Of course not, subtle racism doesn't work if you are going to be blatant about it ... that's why it's called subtle racism and not blatant racism. Still racism tho.
"But. I have a question for you:
There's black people who are Trump supporters. Tell me what you think about them."
That's easy, I think very poorly of them, sort of like how there are people who become sympathetic to their abusers no matter how harmful or dangerous they become. OR how certain people will ignore the brutish behavior of their friends, even tho they know it is wrong, simply because it isn't yet directed or focused on them at the moment. They want so desperately to belong (or keep from being a target), they look the other way.
"I know some of you don't like Trump supporters. So, let me know how you're a racist by not being accepted of these black voters."
Yep, I don't like Trump, don't like his supporters and particularly feel more sorry for those of his supporters who are people of color ... they should know better.
"There are Latino Trump supporters. Tell me how racist you are by not excepting them.
"
Let me reiterate ... That's easy, I think very poorly of them, sort of like how there are people who become sympathetic to their abusers no matter how harmful or dangerous they become. OR how certain people will ignore the brutish behavior of their friends, even tho they know it is wrong, simply because it isn't yet directed or focused on them at the moment. They want so desperately to belong (or keep from being a target), they look the other way.
I don't expect my answer to satisfy you or change your outlook. But I've heard these type of questions asked so many times now, as if they are supposed to stump/own Liberals, that I figured it needs a response.
