And I am sick of white people saying "See? White people are the only real victims of racism!"
Um... the only alleged victim in this thread is a black man.
My point remains. Right-wingers are the first to cry about racism when something really isn't racist. It's funny, I can think of examples of leftists just not getting it.
Look at the #CancelColbert campaign. Do you think that if it had been anyone but Stephen Colbert, and if he hadn't actually been skewering the Washington Redskins, Michelle Malkin (who, remember, thinks FDR putting anyone of Japanese ancestry in concentration camps is a wonderful idea, never mind that if she really wanted to discredit the Dems, that would be a damn fine place to start) would've cared about the "Ching Chong Ding Dong Campaign for Sensitivity to Orientals or Whatever"? (I know, Colbert lives off Poe's law, but still...)
It's like when they claim not forcing kids to pray in school violates the First Amendment.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
Uncle Tom's Cabin was appropriated by minstrel shows. Hence the origin of the term.
And I am sick of white people saying "See? White people are the only real victims of racism!" That's what I'm getting from this thread is a "NO! U!" "I'm not racist; you're racist."
Anyway, my theory is, everyone knows right-wingers (and really, politicians in general) love to show off My _insert race_ Friend™. That's how Clarence Thomas got to be where he was, despite (or rather, because) he was the Chairman of the EEOC and talked about Long Dong Silver to a woman working under him. He rules the way he does to prove to himself that he's not there solely because of his race.
(And of course, he whined about how Anita Hill 'lynched' him. Because we know the KKK was all about helping black women not be sexually harassed.)
