Those were the days: when was America greatest? When was life in the US best?

@perennialloner,
Gooey likes to pretend he's not really white because his ancestors hail from Sicily.

Like his definition of racism, it's not one accepted by academics.

Lol... That's just like a liberal revisionist to assign a new word for something when it's not required.

@AC14747,
It's absolutely necessary to distinguish the people who are made to feel inferior by people like you from the people (e.g. you) who wish to elevate themselves by making others feel inferior.

Maybe you can Enlighten us on how I have made any race feel inferior I mean specifically not just your own nebulous prejudice.

You're not catching on.

You. Both. Are. The. Same. Person. As. In. Identical. Literally. Not. Figuratively.

@AC14747,
For someone who talks a lot about the difference between racism and prejudice, you should know that prejudice is when a person prejudges. You have gone to great lengths to make sure I and everyone else knows what you think. I am judging you based on your actions and character.

You have purposefully delegitimized the injustices black people in the US face by attempting to demonize them with your stupid statistic. You have also said you are disappointed in them indicating that you think you are better than them.

@perennialloner,
No that's just you're prejudiced showing. You never asked me why I was disappointed or what I thought the statistics had to do with the argument so at this point any explanation on my part would be a waste of time.

Apparently you're not able to be objective when it comes to your own prejudice you see somebody make an argument for Republicans or conservatives and you immediately assign the word racist to them. As I have told others in this group if a political party was a race you'd be the biggest racist and bigot in here.

@AC14747,
You're fighting a losing battle on this issue. You just can't see yourself as the person you really are. The following statement is spot on, and I agree with it.

Prejudice is when anyone thinks they are better than others, and can make judgements by showing statistics.

Don't attack anything that has nothing to do with the subject being discussed.
You're the one who used the word hyperbole. LOL
