I'm leaving this digital trail for, I don't know, forensic reasons.<br /><br />Anyhow Kasa I feel really sad for you. You don't know what a racist is. A racist is a person who hates and/or fears and often stereotypes people of another race. A racist is likely to act on these in ways both subtle and overt. As a country with a long racist history, the mechanisms of white on black racism are at work even when an individual may not conform to the definition. That's why it's contingent on all of us to buck the system wherever possible. <br /><br />I don't hate or fear black people, and I do my very best to look for the best in people and try never to assume I know anything about someone before getting to know them. I do however strongly dislike CERTAIN people, though frankly, not near as many black as white. You and your colleague Imani Henry (I know you're close) need to take a look at yourselves, and discover whether you are pure of spirit and motivated purely by a sense of moral justice. Mixed in with your anger is a deep immaturity and maybe even borderline personality disorder. This lethal cocktail blinds you to your own shortcomings. Mine are well-documented; the only thing missing is an index at the back of the blog.<br /><br />I bid you good night. I have your name, I know your friends, and I know your address and phone number. Don't get stupid. Better yet, get lost.<br />Clarkson FlatBedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13463744536115119388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541468051247516447.post-71272715542626958562016-07-21T20:33:57.738-04:002016-07-21T20:33:57.738-04:00Really racist.

They basically have the same machine.<br /><br />I guess what I'm getting at here is that people seem so shocked by the Trump candidacy, but I think they need to realize how freaked out they'd be if it were Cruz or Rubio too. We go through this every four years - "how could so many Americans be (fill in the blank)"<br /><br />They are because they are. They're your countrymen and women. Not all are awful, but a lot are. Few are informed, but that could be said of Democrats too. The point is, despite the extraordinary polarization that is somehow new, according to the pundits, is actually as old as the Republic, and certainly nothing new in my lifetime. Build a wall? That idea has been around for decades. Limit immigration and promote Christian values? More like a century or two. Economic protectionism? As old as the country. Brash candidates? Look at Teddy Roosevelt or Barry Goldwater. Sexist, racist demagogues? Don't get me started.Clarkson FlatBedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13463744536115119388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541468051247516447.post-71678527558070397962016-07-20T23:21:09.378-04:002016-07-20T23:21:09.378-04:00Clinton is going to lose.
