Are Progressives Really Closet Racists?

 

[Michie]

It can be shown that there is little real difference between the superciliousness of "progressivist" snobbery and the most pernicious forms of racism...

(Notice 'snobbery')?

I assume this would fit the bill for those that would consider G.K. Chesterton just another old dead white guy whose opinions in his time are to be disregarded and erased. Maybe pull down a statue or two. Revise a few school books...

As an aside, they do hate white people, particularly the old white male, and that's racism by the actual definition. They use a different dictionary though .

They - intended to mean some, many, not all.

 

[Sword of the Lord]

They hold protests and demonstrations against the white man. It's like 60 years ago in reverse. Imagine holding these against the black man today....

MOD HAT ON

Thread had to be cleaned due to non-Catholics coming in and making posts that are snarky.
Thus this thread is now labeled Catholic only. Only Catholics can post in this thread. Absolutely no snarkiness (subtle or otherwise) in posts in this forum..
Posting can now resume.

progressives are not racist. Racism, by its very nature, is a conservative reaction : to maintain a 'status quo' that supports only a vocal minority.

Interesting to note historically Democrats fought against civil liberties and rights.
Also, as much lip service Obama gave, he never once did anything, according to black communities anyway, to help them.

"Address the post and not the poster"......So in keeping with the rules, that's one of the dumber posts I've ever seen.
