Do republicans admit there is *any* racism anymore?

I'm not talking about how they crow on and on about whites being the victims of "racism". But geez, there could be the most blatant act of racism and they will justify it away. Yeah, those on the left may claim racism where it really isn't, but those on the right act like NOTHING is racist.

It's sad that this has become associated with Conservatism, but it has... and globally. Rather than acknowledge a problem that needs correction or an issue that needs to be addressed, they simply fantasize the problem or issue does not exist. It's the worst possible behaviour that adults of any stripe could exhibit. It's basically a sign of a lack of education.

@MarkPaul Agreed and it would also be hypocritical to say there are no racists on the left either, racism exists in all societies sadly and it needs to be eradicated.

@spjennifer It seems to keep getting rejuvenated though. It's inexplicable.

@MarkPaul The People Using the word "Racist" have burned it out they have used so often it doesn't have any effect on anyone! anymore!
Now When ever some disagrees with you on any topic their training kicks in from CNN or MsDNC They get Feed Fake News with nonsense talking points but they are unable to present a fact based perspective with a sane argument! They SCEAM "Racist"
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@OtkCouple Possibly, but you can say that about a whole host of words and terms including, "MsDNC," "fake news," "witch hunt," and so on. The thing is, the people who use that as an excuse for turning a blind's eye to actual racism have most likely been searching for some way to minimize something they prefer to fantasize doesn't exist.

@MarkPaul I never Claimed, insinuated or otherwise that Racism doesn't exist instead what I was referring to when The People that love this Country challenge your agenda driven political narratives You instinctively accuse them of racism on cue is exactly what you did Thank you for proving my point.
Everything and Everyone in our lives has some bias also some discrimination yeah it sucks Americans strive to
to improve their lives and the people around them... Grow Up MarkPaul
Americans are not Bigot's Almost all Americans are from somewhere else...
very few are indigenous

MarkPaul, Are you a bigot?

Do you have enough experience and wisdom to comment on real life issues
There is only one race the Human race. They are diverse ethnicity a host of nationalities with their own customs and we are all Proud To be an American

You used the same punch line twice [i][u] [b]That Racism is "something they prefer to fantasize doesn't exist"[/b] [/u][/i] in the same thread
Talk about living in Fantasy you are reaching claiming you know that anyone using certain terms like[b] [i][u]"Fake News" & "MsDNC" [/b][/u][/i][b] [i][u]somehow is [i][u]"turning a blind'd eye to actual racism[/u][/i]"[/u][/i] [/b]

Do you have an example of Overt deliberate action you could offer up as proof of actual racism?

Do you think that the people trying to immigrate to this Country crossing dangerous deserts and crossing oceans are somehow defective, uninformed maybe lost? 120 thousand afghans left everything they know along with tens of thousands of Haitian, with over 2 million Central Americans and alike don't forget about....The 1 Billion people on the waiting list for the chance to come to this country do you think they are stupid? Because according to you why would they be coming to our country full of racism.
Do you think there's less racism from where they came from? Maybe you should go there.

Name a Country that has less Racism than the United States.

@OtkCouple See if you can synthesize this into a shorter, more coherent, and crisper commentary. From what I was able to gather you seem highly defensive even though I never established that I was specifically talking about you or calling you out. Do you ordinarily feel guilty about generalized critiques? Be honest.

Is racism a contest for you? If there is a country with more or less racism than another one does that make racism okay for you?
