Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black

Black tea partiers targets of black racism
Quote:

As a black conservative and member of the Tea Party, Deneen Borelli (pictured above) says she's been called an "oreo" and an "Uncle Tom."
In fact, according to Borelli, there would be more black people at Tea Party events like Thursday's tax day protests if blacks weren't afraid of the backlash they would receive from family and friends.
|
Ironically, most of the racism that black tea-partiers endure is from other blacks, not white people as the MSM would have you believe. Black racism is so pervasive that it's an accepted part of their culture. If black people are avoiding the Tea Party, it's because of racism coming from their own people.
MSM pictures and footage are carefully presented in the most shamelessly biased manner, shitting all over the black people who do attend these protests over the objections of family and friends, by ignoring their opinions and very presence at these protests. IMO, the MSM is far more biased and racist than the Tea Party, and perpetuates the divide between whites and blacks by ignoring their congregation at these protests, and irresponsibly showing only the fringe element of one side.

ridiculous.
Black people aren't being racist to other black people. They might be discriminating against them, but that discrimination is on the basis of their political views; not their race. Therefore, it isn't racism.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
What's right in this post: your insinuation that there is a sickening amount of groupthink amount Americans who happen to make up minorities.
What's wrong: it's not exactly racism, but instead a different kind of intolerance – the intolerance of those on the white, liberal plantation against those who feel they are above things like affirmative action.

But should politicism be just as acceptable? I don't think it should. Discrimination and intolerance of another person's political viewpoint and philosophy is just as bad as being intolerant and discriminating against someone's race.

Most of the racism that exists in American society today comes from blacks.(not counting the militant white supremacists who live in the desert)

Doesn't surprise me, lots of tea party videos are showing up now with African Americans in them.
Makes me happy to see these people (tea party) working together.
I think Congress will be taken back by Republicans very soon.

Way to go in the shameless use of Godwin's law.
All I asked Ryan is that should politicism be just as acceptable as racism in our society given that they both draw from the same root causes. I thought it was a fair question to ask.
Even though both racism and politicism both draw from the same pool of causes they can be mutually exclusive. One can be a politicist and not a racist and vise versa, or yeah they can be both but in the case of both one usually takes precedence over another. But for the most part politicism and racism tend to be separate and mutually exclusive from one another. Have you ever heard of a politicist racist? I haven't. The attack from blacks toward black TEA party members is a good example of this exclusively. Black TEA party members, and black conservatives in general have been called traitors from their black liberal counterparts. They have been called "Oreos" too but to be honest while the name calling could be conceived as racist, I see it as more of a front to the politicism that is coming from the block of liberal black democrats.

See, too much tolerance isn't good for the mind. Society. And everybody.
Also, note, that it can't. A certain political idea portrays a unified set of ideas, whilst a race doesn't have any dogma. That's like saying atheism is the same as religion. Democrats have their "dogma" same as christians, however neither atheists nor whites have their own central dogma, because they're descriptions of something.
See what I'm coming at? Being racist you generalize the whole race - stupid people, smart people, lazy people, busy people etc. but being politicist you generalize the whole movement that... fits into the generalization, because that's what makes them the movement.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Stop using the word "african-americans".
There are no fucking "dash americans". There are just Americans. Individuals.
The people that divide people into groups, and then claim they are against discrimination are fucking hypocrites.
Racism and xenophobia are being used as political tools on both sides of the Atlantic. Can't you people see it? It's the perfect weapon. Whoever speaks out against it can be immediately labelled as "racist" by your television, effectively discrediting him in the eyes of the public.
Divide and conquer, people. Divide and conquer.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Tea Party faggots are retarded because. . . .
1. President Obama lowered taxes for them.
2. They are protesting President Obama raising taxes for them.
I'm supposed to be studying and instead I see this stupid shit, which makes me rage, and then I must post and tell everyone how stupid they are so I can feel better about my own political views and act like I'm actually making a difference in the world by posting in ALL CAPS on obscure political internet forums.
Really though, we will never stop being divided. For fucks sake, what the fuck does skin color have to do with anything? Lets look at what matters, which is what is actually happening.

When an administration spends more in 6 months than every administration before it combined how, exactly, does that lower taxes?

Right, the Republicans did such a great job during the eight years of the Shrub--including starting two bogus wars, gutting the environmental protection laws, repealing the Bill of Rights, and taking the huge surplus they inherited from Clinton and turning it into a megahuge deficit they stuck Obama with.

Both the Republicans and the Democrats are batting for the same team.
The rhetoric is different, but their actions are very similar.

And Obama spending like crazy is great? Not to mention prolonging the patriot act, intruding on state rights, etc? That huge deficit was not the work of Bush, it was the work of the U.S. Government all together. McCain and Obama were the lead people on the TARP and all the bailouts, and those cost us a lot of money.
Keep blaming Bush though, it's okay.
But really, what you said doesn't change that I believe the Republicans will be taking back congress. Bush pissed people off, Republican losses... Obama pissed people off I believe there are going to be Democrat losses. People have a very short attention span, they aren't going to remember the Bush years being as painful as the Obama years, what do you think they'll remember when it comes time to pull the lever?
Not to mention, Obama being on the ballot REALLY drew out the black voters. You think this election, without a big name like Obama, there will be nearly as many Blacks voting? Youths? Those groups are what gave Obama the win, along with the Democratic gains in congress.
EDIT: Later, I'll get onto my school website and pull some data and you can see the voting trends if you wish... Been using that shit extensively for my Southern Politics class.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Is anybody bothered that the MSM isn't even recognizing the black presence at these events? As if these poor, downtrodden black folks who just want to be heard don't even exist.
Can you imagine how it feels for them to be watching some liberal know-it-all on TV talk about how "monochromatic" these events are when they were actually THERE shouting at the top of their lungs? Once again, the black voice is ignored by those in power.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Liberals have worked very hard for decades to make sure that if you're black, being anything but liberal yourself is going to be a very tough road to travel. Black culture has embraced this racist attitude from white liberals, because when one group is always promising you things, and the other is always promising you better but you have to work for it yourself, the choice taken is likely to be the "easy" road. Especially if you've been brainwashed by liberals in schools, the government, and entertainment all your life to believe you're a "victim".
Does it ever strike anyone on the left as odd that the color of your skin should determine how you think and vote? No. Why? They're racists.
And any black person who says different (and who has the huge balls to do so) will be immediately informed that he is indeed an Uncle Tom by white liberals, other liberals, his friends, his family, and even his children. And no true liberal will ever be heard saying that they think there's anything wrong with that.
Now THAT'S how you cultivate a voting base that you can take for granted and treat however condescendingly you want for the foreseeable future. Which is how liberals view the public, not just black people (but especially black people).

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Pick the Target, Freeze It, Personalize It and Polarize It.
Common Jew tactic used by the media all the time.
Racists may subscribe to the Tea Party, that's true, but that doesn't mean the Tea Party subscribes to them.
Personally I think they're all fucking idiots being played for fools. They expect to be given justice from the very people that are committing the injustices against them. Yeah...that's likely to happen.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
What's really interesting is how Obama advertised himself as someone who would "bring the races together, end hatred, and replace it with hope."
He's done the exact opposite since he's been in office. Obama couldn't order lunch in a restaurant without dividing people. Obama has no problem whatsoever with the media painting anyone who doesn't like his policies as a racist. The media likes him and got him elected, after all. Obama loves it, and even more, has been counting on it.
When Obama talks about "racial harmony", what that really means is he likes for everyone to be harmonious as liberals. If you're not, especially if you're a conservative, then there's suddenly no harmony to be had. If you're not a liberal, you're an enemy of harmony by not going along with the program. Obama, like all liberals, is only interested in superficial diversity. When it comes to the diversity that really matters (thought, not skin color), suddenly diversity is "fear-mongering" and "hate speech".
Obama and his supporters don't care what race you are, as long as you think the right way. And being black at a Tea Party is not thinking the right way.

Obama and his supporters don't care what race you are, as long as you think the right way. And being black at a Tea Party is not thinking the right way.

Obama didn't drive away conservatives--he spent a fucking year trying to get them involved in the legislative process, and they responded by making up "death panels" and calling him Hitler.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
Dude, you're crazy if you really think a Democrat is going to try and push for Conservatives to vote.
Really, you're fucking nuts if you believe that.
NOBODY in politics tries to help the other guy.

Also, note, that it can't. A certain political idea portrays a unified set of ideas, whilst a race doesn't have any dogma. That's like saying atheism is the same as religion. Democrats have their "dogma" same as christians, however neither atheists nor whites have their own central dogma, because they're descriptions of something.
See what I'm coming at? Being racist you generalize the whole race - stupid people, smart people, lazy people, busy people etc. but being politicist you generalize the whole movement that... fits into the generalization, because that's what makes them the movement.

Well there is context behind the question I asked. On the 18th me and my Asian friend were at a coffee shop downtown catching up on life and such when our conservation turned a little political with the TEA party. He asked me if I went to the TEA party rally on the 15th at the capitol steps and I said no, telling that even though I supported them in spirit there are things in my life that demanded more of my attention. I asked him if he went. He told me he did during his lunch break and it went well and enjoyed it. Well the guy at the next table overheard our conservation and said that the TEA party movement was nothing more than a bunch of dumb uneducated white Americans who are racists. I turned my head at the person and said to him that may be so for some in the movement but I have an associates degree, graduated with honors, and my friend here might take issue with you calling me a racist. The guy then looked at me with shock and disgust and went back to his coffee and newspaper. It was quite funny, and satisfying, to knock this idiot down a peg or two by directly confronting his politicism. But also at the same time very insulting since he didn't offer any apologies to me or my friend for his remark.
I do see where you're coming at and it is true on a general level. On a micro, or even an individual scale it's where things don't necessarily fit neatly in a political philosophy. People who make up the conservative and liberal movement come from different walks of life and have their own views about things and each contribute their own ideals to whatever political movement they belong to. The discussion above about me and my friend at the coffee shop touches on that idea. He basically made the assumption where since I subscribe to the philosophy to the right he basically thought I was a dumb, white, racist backwater hic who doesn't know what the hell I was talking about because me and my friend were having a discussion about the TEA party movement. Never mind the fact he didn't ask me for my opinion and never mind the fact I was talking to my friend about his involvement at the TEA party rally on the 15th.

Re: Black tea-partiers surprised to find they're not really black
I always thought that the idea of "race traitors" was a white supremacist thing, then I heard that any black man who shows conservative tendencies gets called an "uncle tom" or an "oreo." Frankly, I'm not amused one bit.
