(5,225 posts)are racists. But enough of them are that they really can't see through the policy talk of this is hurting me, etc. Trust me, I've used reason to no avail. I get frustrated when I hear Asians and Latinos being described as socially and politically conservative and they are not called out the way right wingers are. For certainly their political and social conservatism mirror the same belief of lack or female reproductive rights, lack of LGBTQ rights, patriachay and racism. We've yet to reach right wingers who are white, I don't think we'll reach right wingers who are Asians and Latinos. Reaching out to them means we have to abandon our views that women's rights are equal rights and racism is wrong.
I do hear what you're saying, and in spite of what's written above, I say bravo to you for trying and being out there.
