    Conservative Acquaintance Annoyingly Not Racist
    NEWS IN BRIEF • Local • ISSUE 50•06 • Feb 11, 2014

    BROOKLYN, NY—Acknowledging that the man’s right-wing views are more nuanced than one might expect, 36-year-old liberal Diana Hardwick confided to reporters Tuesday that her conservative acquaintance Brady Daniels is, quite frustratingly, not racist. “We got to talking about immigration, and I really wanted him to undermine his argument for stricter border controls by saying something disparaging of Latinos, but apparently his opinions are based entirely on national security issues instead of race—which is super irritating,” Hardwick said of Daniels, who reportedly describes himself as a “strong conservative” on fiscal issues but, annoyingly, exhibits no racial biases. “It would be so much easier if I could just write him off as a bigot, but as far as I can tell he harbors no resentment or disdain toward people of color. For God’s sake, we argued every issue from states’ rights to income disparity but nope, he didn’t say anything even tacitly racist. Not once.” Hardwick later concluded that her acquaintance’s opposition to most of President Obama’s policies meant he was probably “close enough” to count as a racist.

    You posted a link...to an Onion article.

    bigtexxx has officially hit an all-time low. He is running out of ideas.

    Back to the drawing board. Come back stronger in a few weeks/months and troll better.

    Being a racist makes you racist bigtexxx. Its really that simple, denial is always the first stage but I think you'll be a lot happier once you admit it. Your insecurities are dominating your thoughts and emotions.

    Onion article is irrelevant.

    So now that his schtick is completely, utterly worn out, texxx posts a parody article to try and prove a point.

    HILARIOUS!!!

    What's next? A Wierd Al video to prove that Obama was born in Kenya?

    ROFL!!!

    I don't assume that conservatives are racists. I don't know if bigtexxx is either, but he sure does write racist things sometimes.

    The constant claims that all whites are victims of reverse racism and/or falsely accused of racism constantly are all from the right wing playbook to distract poor whites from their real oppressors the one percent and the "country club republicans" as bigtexxx has described himself.

    Sure I can. Off the top of my head, that post where you referred to Trayvon Martin as "the black" (it was something like "Are you sure the black wasn't aggressive?") and the one where you called the President "Balack Osama".

    I bet XIrocket read this as a real informative article with factual facts for facting.


    meanwhile,

    Consume enough right wing media and you sometimes have a hard time realizing when something is the Onion as it is just parroting Fox.

    Now I have a somewhat similar problem. I see something crazily right wing from the the Onion and I think it is going overboard and viciously slandering the Right, but then I find it was basically a straight recycling of a news segment from Fox.
