No.Absolutely not.

EugenieLaBorgia · F

Yes - and I am. I do not share those beliefs and prefer to find a common ground (To quietly and calmly convince them otherwise!)

I support my government the right to refuse illegal immigration

Soossie

@nedkelly that's another thing...

MasterLee · 56-60, M

Here is the real problem: the term 'racist' has lost objective meaning. The liberals toss it off using it as a pejorative term meaning they got offended because it violated their echo chamber. By characterizing it as 'racism' they then try to implement a zero tolerance on it. Sad.

@MasterLee This wasnt even in that context. And while we are at it, white supremacy is what it is. There is no justification for being an asshole for discriminating someone’s background and religion. 🤦🏻‍♀️

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@SW-User perhaps not but I am not seeing this diagnosis. You are reading something that is not there.

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@SW-User btw you used the term white supremicist which assigns as motivation to a race which furthers racism. Thus continuing the cycle. The last real racist in congress was robert Byrd.

I’d prefer to talk to them about it than to totally cut them out because that wouldn’t fix anything

MarineBob · 56-60, M

Well it's out there and I think we all tolerate it, don't like or approve but tolerate

MasterLee · 56-60, M

If I didn't I'd have to cast off all my racist liberal friends.

PhoenixPhail · M

I would if only to get him to possibly turn the other cheek.

Fernie · F

No...if they tolerate racism...what the hell else goes on in that mind

Mildreadful · F

Errr noope, they can get straight out of my life

meemo70 · 51-55, M

Not really, unless there’s hope to change them

nonsensiclesnail · F

Yes. I don't have to agree with them.

GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M

Hmmm... Probably not.

iQuit · F

What do you mean by tolerates
I need an example or scenario

Do you mean like they hear or see something racist and do not get involved or something else?

SW-User

@iQuit They hang out with a racist and tolerate their racist rants.

Ladyryan · 51-55, F

@SW-User Okay... no for me

iQuit · F

@SW-User If I was aware that they were pro-racist- or in their character discriminated others in any way or form no (I wouldn't want to be associated with them).

If they were simply quiet (non-confrontational) and in the wrong crowd unintentionally- I wouldn't hold it against them. As long as the situation did not repeat itself.

In the future though....
They would need to show who they were as a person for me NOT to completely shut them out.

because honestly
Racism should have been over long ago.
Intolerance and Hate go deep in many and
If I can - I will not be associated with people who hold those things as their truth.

Gwangi · 46-50, M

Nope. Those days are over.

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

of course

Adaydreambeliever · 56-60, F

No, I couldn't...

Soossie

No.... never...

BittersweetPotato · 31-35, F

Never.

michelle44 · 56-60, F

No way

questionWeaver

Sure ..
I have no idea anymore what that possibly means ... with no frame of reference ... it is unlikely I could even recognize it.

Guess the world is getting better

Thank you Dr. King!

I listened

RemovedUsername634280 · 41-45, F
