The Silent Racists

[lewisnotmiller]

Almost no one is what they say they are. Or even what they think they are.

Very true. This is because they are what I think they are.

You must spend a lot of time either laughing or crying.

Words are racist. Words categorize people, places, and things into preconceived "boxes".

Ban words!

Mostly I just spend time nodding smugly to myself.

Might be easier to ban boxes.

Told ya we had more in common than you thought!

Oh yeah, and space. We both LOVE astronomy.


Damnit, I better be careful or you might actually start liking me.

I won't let that happen!

I personally think that the majority of liberals ills are self-inflicted...

There are people that I label as a "silent racist." This is the person that on the outside does not show their racism sentiments, but on the inside they harbor those feelings. They put up a front for the public to see, but behind closed doors they are outspoken and cheer on the champions of extremism. Here are some examples of a Silent Racist:

1. Blacks deserve better schools, safer neighborhoods, and higher paying jobs. I just don't want them anywhere near my neighborhood, kid's school or taking my job.

2. Gays deserve to be happy just like everyone else. They should be allowed to "civil unions." However, I don't want them anywhere near me or my family, and I sure as hell don't want to explain to my kids why two grown men are kissing. A marriage is between a man and a woman.

3. Hispanics are hard workers and all, but they need to go back home and then apply for legal entry into the US, even though that could take years. Oh, and they should learn to speak English before coming here. We don't need Spanish written on everything just for them.

4. I am sure most Muslims are peaceful people. However, I get nervous every time I see someone from the Middle East and watch them to see if they are trying to ignite a bomb or something. I am all for freedom of religion, but I don't want a mosque anywhere near my neighborhood.

5. I go to church, pray to God, love Jesus, and put on my best clothes for Sunday. However, I don't like the fact that some non-whites are now attending my church. That is sacred ground. They need to find a church for their own kind.

Don't think for one second that these Silent Racists don't exist.

Sort of like a minoritism, sure, it exists. I believe it all based mainly on misinformation or dogma.

According to Trump the following minorities have issues.
Black, Latinos, Homosesxuals, Muslims, Jews, Mentally Handicapped, Women, I may have missed some.

Is this just a massive straw man on social justice?
