Is Crying Racism the New Calling Wolf?


Oh God Yes! Yes!

VS.

Oh! Hell no

Side Score: 7

Even though I agree with the left on many issues, I'm sick and tired of the constant race baiting from many people on the left. They are doing a major disservice to victims of legitimate cases of racism. It seems like both sides of the political spectrum are looking for any way possible to demonize the other side, and the left seems to have picked racism as their go to accusation. In some cases it is definitely justified, but in many cases they are just crying wolf.

In some cases it is. I'm not being sexist, racist, etc by saying this. Sometimes the reason you don't get the job not because your a half black half Indian disabled woman, but because you just suck as an individual.

Yup, crying racism seems to be a well-worn, tired tactic, followed closely by 'Homophobe', Xenophobe, etc. and mainly propagated by Liberal Trumpophobes.

Side: Oh God Yes! Yes!

Absolutely! The left is incapable of making an argument so they call you names when you disagree with them. Racist is their go to ad hominem attack phrase. There, you've been marginalized.

I've seen it plenty of times...whipping out the race card as soon as shit gets too real. It's about lifestyle not race. In Example : I had a nerdy white boy come to my door selling jerky for his band, so I bought some, good kid. I also had a wannabe thug black kid try to sell me magazines so he could go to amsterdam and get high.....reverse the roles and I would have done the same - nerdy black kid with jerky, sure i'll buy some. White idiot wannabe - get the hell out of here.

It is the new version of Gotthard's law. I think we should rename it as "Trump's law".

There's nothing NEW about it. Non-racist Americans have been crying racism, at least since the early 1800's. Those that haven't studied American history (or see it differently for convenience), or have "selective hearing" don't WANT to know about it. "It's over! It doesn't exist anymore! We elected a black President! .... SEE? They find ANY reason say "he failed" ... any reason but the racist, obstructionist one! They are blind in one eye and can't see out of the other!

I haven't seen a wolf in years, but I've seen PLENTY of racists!

Racism as a word was popularized by Leon Trotsky in the 19th Century.

Nope! All those Trump voters ARE racist because they voted for a white guy and didn't vote for the white woman because she is basically black because she worked for a half black man and he wanted you to vote for her.

Bullshit. Just because you have a boss who picks men 55% of the time and not 50% of the time does not make him sexist. Picking Trump over Hillary is not sexist because it's like the difference between an object and a class in programming. A class is a category like male or female or rock or video game. An object is an instance of a class, like Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, the Sorcerers Stone, or my friend's old copy of Tomb Raider. Picking any instance of anything male over and individual instance of one other given female instance of one thing is not sexist because it leaves out the possibility that another female besides Clinton could have run against Trump and we don't know what the result would be. She didn't get the job because SHE was deemed bad at her job by the American people, NOT BECAUSE EVERY WOMAN WHO CHALLENGED TRUMP IS DEEMED WORSE by the American people. Hillary Clinton lost because most people didn't like HER. Somestimes the reason you don't get the job is because you just suck, not because your a woman. Get over it.

Seriously? You've been here for three years and you don't know me at all. I was being sarcastic.
