I was speaking of the picture that was posted.  Is that so hard to understand?

I don’t believe the problems exists the way you believe.  Why do you live in fear of white men?

That you don't know what the fuck is going on.

This is a good question. Not of Halifax or anyone in particular. But I too have interpreted a lot of the left's rhetoric as anti-white man. Not really getting that vibe from their leaders. But political commentators, late-night comedians, and anyone that a right-winger would call a "Social Justice Warrior," have been giving off a bit of that vibe. Probably not the best strategy to do that. I'd wager a guess (and it is a guess because I don't know for sure) that the largest registered voter group in the country is white men. And lumping us all in with Trump just because he's a white man isn't fair. 

Look at the White House intern photo. Now look at Team Trump Treason's cabinet photo. Now look at the US Senate photo. Now consider the Team Trump Treason Administration's desire to specifically define gender. See also, supreme court rulings. White males disproportionately control the levers of power, to the detriment of minorities. Is it really that difficult to understand?

Of course the pompous liberal ends his post with "Is it really that difficult to understand?" Of course. 

Anyway, to suggest all white men are evil (not saying you are, I said political commentators, etc. have been implying that) is the same as when Trump suggested illegal immigrants are rapists and murderers. Are all illegal immigrants rapists and murderers? Don't ask Trump because the correct answer doesn't fit his narrative. Are all white men evil, women-hating, minority marginalizing, power-hungry assholes? 

I’ll add “pompous liberal” to my “Cheeto eating, basement dwelling, Internet bully tough guy,” moniker.

We've gone from one of the most diverse Administrations and executive branches back to a racist predominantly white administration and executive branch and judiciary. Mitch McConnell and his ilk of white males want to take the US back to how it was in the 1950s. It’s no more difficult to understand than that.

And to answer your question, no. But there are way too many who are.

See I look at McConnell and his ilk as assholes. Not white assholes. I really don't even think about that. Now, do I not think about that because I'm a white male and thus have nothing to worry about with those assholes? Or do I think like that because I'm so progressive that I don't t even take race into consideration? Not just when talking about the government, but in general. 

Maybe both. 

I would almost agree except it doesn’t explain how and why they treated Obama the way they did.

Now when you say "treat Obama the way they did," do you mean blocking his legislation and just overall hating him? The answer in that case would be because he's a liberal democrat that became popular with the electorate.

Now if you're referring to the Kenyan stuff or Trump going on and on about his birth-certificate, it's because Obama's black. But not necessarily in a "we hate black people" sort of way. More in a "we hate liberal democrats that win elections and since this guy is black and has ties to Kenya, maybe we can use that against him" sort of way. That's a pretty low place to stoop. From a strategic standpoint, I can't blame them for stooping that low. In fact, the democrats should study up on how to stoop so low so that they can actually defeat Trump in 2020.

I disagree and call bullshit. If Obama were white, things would have gotten done and you never would’ve heard Mitch McConnell utter, “our number one priority is to see this president fail,” or “you lie,” shouted during the SOTU address or a total repub boycott of the traditional WH Christmas party. And, you would have had more compromise and more legislation passed that might have helped the country. They were rocked on their heels when the black guy beat Hillary.

I disagree with your disagreement. I feel that if Hillary won in 2016, McConnell and company would treat her exactly has they treated Obama. Maybe worse because they've been hating her since the 90's.

I'm not on the right. Nor the left for that matter. I was looking at it from a competitive standpoint: Democrats vs. Republicans. The Republicans don't play by any morality rules and that's why they're currently winning.

No, in that case they would have used blatant sexism instead of blatant racism. Which you apparently think would have been equally legit tactics undertaken by your government.

I don't think they're legit tactics at all. I said that the GOP had "stooped low" to pull that shit. What I'm saying though is that's part of the game. I don't make the rules of American politics, but that's how they are.. Shouldn't liberals like yourself be looking for cures to racism, rather than simply identifying it? 

And don't get me started on the sexism shit with Clinton. It didn't play a role in her losing the election, so I doubt it would have played a role in her presidency. The GOP would hate her because she's a democrat named Clinton, not because she's a woman.
