If you don't believe in (recognize) white privilege why the fuck are you on a Democratic Forum?

359. For those who think the stinking liberal lefty hippies who don't like some of Obama's policies or

don't like Hillary or the Third Way are really just RWNJ plants who are trying to drive people away from the DU and the Democratic Party and voting for the personages with "D" on their game jerseys - and now we are to have some Democratic Purity tests in order to determine whether we are even supposed to be here - bwahahahahaha!

Y'all are being played, and not by the stinking liberal lefty hippies. I am sure that if you manage to drive away enough people, the voters who are remaining (don't want to use that very bad word "left&quot will be very pure because they will all be and think just like you. But maybe not enough to win the game.

Already I see stuff like oh, you don't like what the NSA is doing? You hate Obama! You are a racist! You are not a Democrat! Oh, you think the Crimeans should be able to join Russia? You hate Obama! You love Putin! You are not a Democrat! I was told that hey! So what if Obama invited Rick Warren to the inauguration! BIG TENT!!!! You hate Obama! You are a racist!

Gotta hand it to you, though - lately I am thinking, maybe I am not a Democrat. Not a GOPer, not a Libertarian, whatever. Maybe there is no reason for me to even keep up with politics. Just outrage, sermonizing, requests for more and more money, and being told to sit down and STFU. And yes I do see White Privilege, and, as a woman, I do see misogyny. But be careful when you start to purify the Big Tent. You will have a lot of empty, billowing canvas.

If Hillary wins, maybe she should go ahead and have Jamie Dimon give the invocation. THAT'S what the Democratic Party stands for these days. And didn't Hillary make some campaign remarks -

"I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."

"There's a pattern emerging here," she said.

Hillary and Bill are veritable bastions of white privilege. So maybe we should keep that in mind when we decide who to support, well, those who are pure enough to be Democrats.

Looks like there is a pattern here at DU - don't believe in white privilege or reparations? Get out. Don't like the NSA? Get out. And so on. Fascinating. And liberal lefties will still be the whipping boy. Kudos!
