(15,522 posts)this guy says. Disagreeing with him does not make one a racist, despite what a few loud people think in this thread. Because those monuments do need to come down, and Richard Spencer and people like him ARE a BIG problem and they should never be ignored, even though liberals are racists too. And he has no clue who called the cops on him. His assumptions are wrong and were a distraction from his argument. The whole piece was shitty writing filled with flawed logic and some sexist assumptions of his own, and no one should feel compelled to share it or champion it, IMO.
Do we need to discuss racism on our side? Of course. There is no denying it's there and that it happens all the time, and way too many if not most white people are in denial about it. But I don't think a whole lot of people will be willing to listen if it's couched in sexism, and sounds just like a right winger talking. It's hard enough to get white people to listen to begin with.
