"Take up the position"?To concede something means I have to have held a position that I then later reverse. I have never held the position that individuals cannot be and do racist things.
I didn't say you held or hold the position. If anything I said you seem too hold that position. The reason you seem that way to me is on this forum you have yet to take up the position that a black man encountered racism in America (in your lifetime to be generous) when given the opportunity.
Whether somebody has experienced racism in a particular incident is a question particular to the incident. I am not obligated to call out every racist incident I read about or obligated to comment on a thread if I simply generally agree.
But I do call out people I think are wrong, and I especially do it selectively on this board, because this board is heavily left-leaning and people tend not to call out their own. And someone needs to set them right.
I do not simply listen and believe people when they tell me they experienced an '-ism'. I want the details of the incident.The closest you've got is implying that democrats think black people are stupid. However (again it seems) that is an attack on a political party that can arguably be called a defense of black people and not exclusively in their defense..
My sincere apologies for not seeing a side of you you've yet to show.
As for Democrats and what they believe: I think their policies show lower behavioural expectations from black people as a group, and it is easy for them to take black votes for granted, as 85-90% of black people in America vote Democrat.
