  Only people that have no ability to think for themselves have a need to put others into categories of acceptability based on what the dominant culture around them thinks instead of judging them based on their individual merits.

    You need to fuckin go back to school with your “think for yourself” crap if you think anything on the left is justified.

    And no, nothing on the right is racist, they’re not caricatures of enslaved people.

      Interesting way to admit that the opinion you hold on this matter was beaten into you by the school system and isn’t the result of your own thinking process.

    What if someone’s judgement of your individual merits just happens to agree with the dominant culture around them? Or is that not possible? Does the ability to think for ones self necessarily lead to disagreement with whatever is commomly believed? I think that would just be dumbass contrarianism.

      Oooh, now that would be very convenient, wouldn’t it?

      At the very least, it requires entertaining ideas and possibilities widely believed to be unthinkable, even if you do end up discarding them for lack of evidence.

  You’re genuinely saying that those on the right aren’t racist?
