In reply to the discussion: So... how did YOU become a racist? [View all]Skidmore
(37,364 posts)Unless you've been on the receiving end or have witnessed someone who has been on the receiving end of racism, this claptrap apparently passes as acceptable on DU now. Having been through a very difficult period of several years dealing with racism directed at my husband, I don't find it either good satire or funny. Those who rushed to claim victimhood at once have diminished themselves and have given comfort to those elements of society using race to subvert any agenda held by the left. Racism is a real issue in this society and has been used consistently by the right to undermine this President. It is disgusting to see people purporting to be on the left rush to do the same thing. The point could have been made by simply asking what the turning point in supporting the President was for the individual.
