The majority of the country believes Trump is a racist because his racism was confronted. District Attorneys who refused to prosecute police who killed unarmed black men where voted out of office because their racist behavior was confronted. You are the one who argues for placing the racists. Because of confrontation, they are on the run. They hate being exposed to the light.</p> </div></div></div> Mon, 17 Sep 2018 19:29:22 +0000 rmrd0000 comment 258392 at http://dagblog.com What I see is that you have a http://dagblog.com/comment/258387#comment-258387 <a id="comment-258387"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/258384#comment-258384">The white supremacists only</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>What I see is that you have a vested interest in maintaining they get maximum attention to their outrage, instead of being marginalized as has happened, so you can war against them. You like the whole idea of minority tribes, including white suprematists. And war between the tribes. You would be real sad if they disappeared. You seem to love outrage and victimhood.</p> </div></div></div> Mon, 17 Sep 2018 19:00:38 +0000 artappraiser comment 258387 at http://dagblog.com The white supremacists only http://dagblog.com/comment/258384#comment-258384 <a id="comment-258384"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/258377#comment-258377">Here&#039;s a great example of</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>The white supremacists only need the mere existence of ethnic minorities to be outraged.

Minority of United States people who look white and think they are 100% white fall for it, think we've MAGA way back to the 1980's, think they're Bernhard Goetz. Tallahassee police and white NYTimes reporter types don't fall for it. Those who continue to talk black vs white or white vs. black are just feeding the troll and trying to recreate the 1980's (reminder: it's 2018, soon to be 2020)  while the culture continues to change without them. Those who define by race are going to be left behind, <em>there's no doubt about it. </em>The majority is on that side. Trump is 70 years old, he's going to die soon. Continually feeding outrage on either side just prolongs the agony of the Trump troll effect. Ridicule by the majority and support for those who act right is the answer. Glass half full, we're on our way: back to the common good. Race war in actuality, it in the process of dying. They are raging against their death.</p> </div></div></div> Mon, 17 Sep 2018 17:17:09 +0000 artappraiser comment 258377 at http://dagblog.com
