Race: today's lesson

[Evmetro]

There are many meanings of the word "race", but in regard to political discussion, race is narrowed down to this context, as found on Merriam Webster:

any one of the groups that human beings can be divided into based on shared distinctive physical traits

There are five categories for data on race:

1) American Indian or Alaska Native.
2) Asian.
3) Black or African American.
4) Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander.
5) White.

You may notice that none of these five categories mention gender, religion, or nationality, so I will include a list here of what race is not:

Other forms of bigotry
Aryan
Women
Gays
Muslims
Mexicans
All humankind
Unemployed
Disabled
Lefty

It's funny that Evmetro talks about race, as if other bigotry is excused because it's not race related. We are all people, so hating on someone, or thinking your superior based on age, gender, religion, race, disability, wealth, sexual orientation, etc, is bigotry. It's sickening, and yes wannabe Christians, it's a big time sin. Now off with your sinful selves. Pray extra hard, that God gives you a mulligan, because of bad culture, and stupidity.

Real racism does exist in society, and it is a really ugly thing to experience. One of the biggest advances in combating this ugly form of bigotry was having racism itself isolated from other forms of bigotry. Victims of racism were finally able to accurately describe what they were experiencing, and laws were developed to minimize this ugly form of bigotry.

When lefties fight to obscure what racism is, it makes it easier for real racism to go unnoticed. Requiring the discussion of other forms of bigotry in order to describe racism obscures what racism is, and makes it very difficult for victims of it to clearly present what is happening. If you really care about victims of racism, help me to tell the world exactly what it is. There should be no confusion in identifying various forms of bigotry, since the exact form of it needs to be identified in order for laws to apply. There are not laws against general bigotry, but there ARE laws about specific forms of it.

Lefties want to obscure the meaning of racism so that they can broadly use the term as a political weapon. They do not care if they take the voices of real victims away, they just want a political weapon that can be used in as many different fights as possible.

Pretty interesting seeing how little lefties have to say on racism when the object is not to paint their political opponents as racists.
