Race Card

[Bush92]

Any predictions on when Democrats and liberal media will play the race card in order to churn out the Black vote prior to November, 4th? PBS already at it.

[Mr. H.]

Liberals OWN the race card.
And the minority card.
And the poor card.
And the homeless card.
And the elderly card.
And the middle class card.
And the veteran card.

Yet... they're hardly playing with a full deck.

Fuck 'em.

Here is the real problem...IMO

There are those who play the race card without regard for whether or not the people they play it on are racists.

Then there are some who have the race card played on them, but dismiss any possibility that they may be racists.

People who are secure with the fact they are NOT racists, aren't bothered by someone telling them they are racists. Because they know it's not true, and nobody can point to any support for racism on their part.

I tend to really disapprove of what I call racial resentments. Almost nobody practices real racism anymore because it means you believe in the superiority or inferiority of one race over another.

While statistical differences on all manner of measures might exist amongst races, countries, and cultures...the irrational notion that certain types of homo sapiens have significant functional inferiorities to other homo sapiens is anthropologically unsound, and absurd.

Simple and dangerous minds use circumstantial differences between races to draw unsupported conclusions about those races, and that is usually when bad things start to happen, especially if those people have any kind of authority over those they believe to be inferior.

Damn I never thought of it that way! Holy crap they've done it! They can now operate however they want and never feel like they're being a racist!

It's pretty brilliant actually

[Bush92]

Democrats final option.

 

[TheOldSchool]

Oops did you accidentally compare black people to subhuman feral apes and got called a racist again?

Have no fear! Just say "Oh great just whip out the race card again why don't you!!!"

If you sound sufficiently insulted and pompous you'll get nods of approval from your white friends and the dumb negro cannot possibly continue with that argument!

 

[Bush92]

When did I ever do that? You jumped to conclusions...you just played the race card.

 

[LoneLaugher]

When playing cards with someone who deals you "the race card", is it a rule that you must pick it up?

Appeals Court Rejects Attempt To Limit Early Voting Hours In Ohio

Husted was defending his state's move to eliminate the so-called "Golden Week," when voters could register and cast a ballot at the same time. The new blueprint would have also eliminated voting on Sundays and weekday evenings during the early voting period.

no prediction needed when the republicans play the card themselves for real ...
