The Biggest Racism News Items of the Past Month....

1. Despicable MAGA kids in DC, that ends up not being an inter-generational, multi-race bro-ha-ha that it was at first touted to be, in fact the reverse.
2. A 30 year old picture of someone in black-face.
3. A inflammatory attack on Trump and his supporters that is completely made up.

I know that there is racism. I know there are racist acts going on that hurt people.

BUT, when you have to make up stuff, or dredge it up from before most people were born, isn't that a clue that it isn't as big of a problem as some people make it out to be?

They so HATE Trump that they are consumed by that hate and end up being as hate filled as the man that they say is hate filled.

If this were reversed, we see on SNL a parody of the movie/book "The Hate you Give", to "The Hate You Make Up".

Yeah, and to think this is courtesy of the same people who brought us classics like ' Guess who coming to dinner ? '

We are currently practicing "preferred racism" in this country as if it isn't exactly the same kind of "racism" that everyone was fighting against in the 60s.

Really wish we could move directly to true equality, no racial qualifiers for anything, no gender identifiers except when absolutely necessary, none of it. Instead we are actually going in the other direction with identity politics and the creation of identity, racial, gender categories that are actually imaginary just so people can feel "oppressed."

We used to bemoan "participation ribbons" in the belief that it would teach a generation to stop trying to win, now we have a generation that seems to be motivated only to be seen as a victim, even if it's imaginary.

Things are so bad I think we'd be better off with a government selected by a lottery of high school graduates and college placement should be based on nothing more than GPA's. Employment should be "best candidate for the job" and nothing else.

But none of that will ever happen because humans are so fundamentally flawed, tribalistic and more willing to research how the moon landing was a hoax than how it was actually achieved.

We now have the internet, where literally almost anything you want to know about is at your fingertips. This was the dream of thinkers and builders, where you could learn anything you want simply by wanting to understand, but what do most people do with that opportunity that people 100 years ago would have given anything for?

Here are google's top searches for 2018.

There are so few instances of real racism in our country that the left needs to manufacture it to push their agenda.

"Social justice columnist “triggered” by photo that does NOT depict men in “blackface” — they're coal miners"
