    Who is it racist against? I'm curious.

    Yep and a majority of Catholics are against same-sex marriage and abortion, both in common with Conservatives.

    I blame the enormous labour glut introduced to the world in the last few decades.
    Postwar generation and China.
    more labourers, less pay.

    the assumption that all non-whites are 'voting against their interests' implies that A, they are all poor, B, Implies you (guessing, white man) Know better than them, C, That the sole consideration when voting is personal gain (for them who vote 'your' way)

    All three counts as racist.

    Well, I can't help what implications people see in things.

    Nope. Never said that.

    Yep. If they vote for Republicans, then absolutely.

    Nope. Never said that either.

    None of those things are racist. Then again, if one belongs to the camp of Anita Sarkeesian, then everything is racist. She actually said that.

    In any case, the point is that Republicans don't give two shits about the latinos, women, gays, or any other minority, and in fact, have been doing their damnedest to make the lives of said minorities worse and worse. So yes, if you belong to one of those minorities, and you vote Republican, you're voting against your interests. That's not racism. That's mathematical logic.

    Asians are democrats, possibly because they aren't religious at all.

    yeah you did.
    Yep. If they vote for Republicans, then absolutely.
    So you the white man knows better than they, the ignorant hispanics and blacks?
    Yeah - how that is racist soo hard to see

    None of those things are racist. Then again, if one belongs to the camp of Anita Sarkeesian, then everything is racist. She actually said that.
    I can, and did make that argument that you were racist, i made the another one jsut up here - and i think anita sarkeesian is an idiot, so why you think i would care ...

    In any case, the point is that Republicans don't give two shits about the latinos, women, gays, or any other minority, and in fact, have been doing their damnedest to make the lives of said minorities worse and worse.
    You might be helped by this fact:
    Latinos are not a coherent group.
    So yes, if you belong to one of those minorities, and you vote Republican, you're voting against your interests. That's not racism. That's mathematical logic.
    You may have other interests, you know.
    and just to be clear, its the presumption you know better than them, that is racist.

    57% of American Catholics are in favor of secular gay marriage.

    Why does it matter what a race a person is when they vote unless they are voting for that person because they are racist themselves? Like voting for someone just because they are same race as you.

They think you believe its perfectly ok to force your opinions ONLY when you agree with them.

    Or to put it another way, people see that the left forces their opinions on:

    1. the confederate flag
    2. school lunch menus
    3. christmas
    4. the banning of religion
    5. health care
    6. where parents are allowed to send their kids to school
    7. the maximum allowed size of a soda

    and a ton of other things. And then they get told oh NO you can't force your opinion on anything because forcing opinions is wrong, they think you are nuts!
    This is fucking hysterical. AND he thinks he made a good point.

    1. States rights to do what? Oh right, own fucking slaves. Read the Articles of Secession of every single one of the initial states to secede.
    2. Trying to get the obesity epidemic under control is a bad thing?
    3. Que?
    4. What the actual fuck?
    5. So sorry we're trying to keep us on par with modern First World nations. I keep forgetting Conservatives want us to be peers with Third World shitholes.
    6. What? Nobody is trying to limit school choice, but public funds go to public schools with public oversight, not private schools.
    7. One fucking mayor, not Liberals.

    He produces nothing but flaccid vitriol on forums and hates the boogeyman liberal he's created in his head.

    Best just to laugh.

    Libertarinism is a great idea when you're in college think your "parents just don't get it" and wish everyone would leave you alone. In the real world, it's a failure.
