If you listen to their rhetoric long enough what you get out of it is a message...to their croissant-eating white burnt-out ex-flower-children, and john favreau watching euro loving goatee-head gen-x'ers...a message of empowerment. Hey be like us you know as well as we do that those (insert non-caucasian race) couldn't make it without us, thats why we want to throw them programs, aid and money. That'll stop 'em from robbing you in the pier 1 parking lot. Ever hear that joke "toss em a basketball?" And not only will it stop you from being robbed, it will make you feel [b]important[/b] knowing that you're relied upon, we'll give you t-shirts and stickers to put on the back of your honda to show just how important you are, and you'll feel it everytime you look at them, [b]you're the reason[/b] they're not swinging from vines painting themselves and beating on drums, you care because you're important, and it doesn't mean you have to actually [i]talk[/i] to any of them or get close to them. [b]Important people have a responsibility to the greater good of society.[/b]

Of course thats what they want them to think, I think it's all done in the name of pushing people farther apart. How are you going to advance your party-line of relieving the pain of the masses without creating a little of it? And especially all this BS "diversity" propoganda we've been hearing as of late, "if you're white, you MUST have black friends, you MUST have gay friends, you MUST have non-english speaking friends" Fuck that, the majority of the people are good and freedom-minded and couldn't care what color a person is or what type of holes they like in their spare time. The ones who do hate, no matter how wrong we think it is, it's their right and they're not going to be swayed by your feelgood multicultural commie pressure, not going to be swayed towrds good anyway, they WILL be pushed farther away though, which is the goal right?

Speaking of that, how come they never want you to accept the haters [i]"for who they really are"[/i]? It's [b]fashionable[/b] to have token gay friends but not token klan friends?

TV commercials are worse than the TV shows anymore, you'll see 1 white person  the rest are blacks, hispanics, orientals (who for presentability must dress and talk "white")  and people in wheelchairs getting together for a barbecue or something. I'm not against that by any means, but I know how often that sort of thing really happens in real life, and I can see through the advertising message to the deeper one hidden beneath "if you don't have partys like this, you're a bigot, that's what all the non-whites think of you so you should stay away from them"

I think blacks, gays and orientals are going to have to start keeping a time-share schedulebook, I mean they make up a smallish percentage of the population it's not like there is enough of them to go around to be a token friend to every guilt-ridden or empowerment-craving white person.

what do you all think? sorry for the rant I'm in a particularly anti-marxist mood this morning.

There is definitely an element of socialism in the typical liberal attitude. While this republic was founded on the principle of the least government necessary, liberals always want government to do more. "We could be doing so much [b]more[/b] for the African-Americans/trisexuals/suckerfish than we are, and it's just tragic...{sob}" This allows them to feel superior to you and I as they sip their latte in their BMW.

Also, there is the class warfare aspect, a little "divide and conquer." The liberals can buy minority votes with their entitlement programs. I mean really, who is the welfare recipient going to vote for? The "social responsibility" candidate, or the "no controlling legal authority" candidate? It's a no-brainer. They don't see or see and ignore how they're being used.

Either way, it's dishonesty.

Freedom isn't free

Jarhead out.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship."
--Alexander Tyler

Like Jarhead alluded to, it's Marxist class struggle. Manufacture a repressed under class of people who them will vote for you and beg for your help. Its odd really - Put people down, so they will vote for you.

Think of what "entitlement" programs "say" about what Leftists think about blacks, hispanics or any other minority group -

Ultimately, they say these "minorities" are NOT smart enuf, strong enuf, hard working enuf to ever succeed ON THEIR OWN without gov't help.

Further, these Leftist entitlement programs ceate a generation of "minorities" enslaved to feeding at the gov't trough.

WHAT COULD BE MORE RACIST THAN THAT?????

If you ask me they arent.

they are definitely intolerant
my friend, who is starting to show is true liberal colors of late, thinks any one who enjoys shooting and fishing is a "hick"
his internship this summer was at a place on a river. most of the guys would fish during their lunch break. All he did was bitch about working with hicks

I once worked with a lady who's husband was a prominent democrat politician in that city, & one day  the conversation came up between 4-5 people about housing projects in inner cities, etc. Basically she stated that most minorities could not make it on their own, and  said that "we have to help THEM as they cant do it themselves, they just cant do it" (as if you were a minority that you were just too dumb)  all the time she winked out of the corner of her eye at me, not wanting to say that word, but wanting to so bad it hurt. Typical white liberal elitist who thinks she is better than everyone else, very enlightened and with an air of pompice that would make the queen of England run back to the laundromat. Absolutely sickening. [puke]

They are racists.  If you were to believe them, minorities cease to be humans whenever they are victimized by other minorities.  They start screaming when they can point the finger at whitey (justifiably or not), but don't say a thing when these same people are victimized by their own kind (or any group other than Whitey).  Liberals feel the need to "do something", because to a liberal, the moral superiority of whites is a given.  It's the pot calling the kettle black.
