Here’s what I’ve noticed — racists these days don’t even have the gall to admit they are racists.
“Racist” is a name they no longer want to claim.
So now, it’s a common practice for white supremacists to water down their message.
They even have a campaign called “it’s okay to be white.”
In April 2018, “Newsweek” reported a rash of diaper boxes at Target stores had laminated cards inside with the slogan, “It’s okay to be white.”
Can you imagine getting one of those dirty diaper cards?
That’s the message white supremacists want to spread.
But I want to scribble, “yes, but; yes, but; and yes, but” over the whole thing.
I have so many asterisks, I could create a universe.
What I’ve noticed is, if you press these racists, many will say they aren’t “racists” but they are “pro-white.”
I’ve had this same conversation with a white supremacist on Twitter.
They’ll say they don’t “hate” other races.
