Yes, and? This is an article specifically listing racism and there are numerous examples of things that aren't racist.
Fair enough, didn't read the article. The rule is generally though, if you continually find yourself having to prove you're not a racist, you're probably a racist.

Right, I have another rule: if someone is truly racist a person doesn't need to be a little weasel and make shit up about them that isn't racist at all.
Yet the New York Times felt the need to do so. But don't you DARE call them fake news.

Agreed, you shouldn't. Do you honestly believe Trump isn't a racist? And don't give us this 'I need proof, there is no proof' malarky. What's your instinct about the man.

I believe some stuff in the article could be seen as racist.
I think it hurts their argument when they lump in shit that isn't racist with racism.
My advice to the left is if you're gonna continue to cry about racism then make sure what you're crying about is actually racist. Trump saying a mean thing about someone who happens to be a minority isn't racism.
Cuz when it's not racist, but people open their mouth and say it is anyways? It just causes people to dismiss *actual* racism. I'm genuinely at a loss as to why the left has not learned this lesson yet.
I am aware that the press goes above and beyond at times with Trump, I'm not a TDS denier, I know it exists. Using your judgment and experience though, given his background and lifestyle (even his generation if you want), do you doubt that he's ever said disparaging things about black or Asians, etc? Practically every rich, white guy Trumps age is a racist, even if they or others consider it to be racism-lite. Can almost guarantee the Clintons and the Bush family a massive racist f***s as well.

I don't doubt he's uttered some of this stuff before, but people need to go with...the stuff he uttered. Not "well an ex employee said it". That's garbage lol.
What percentage of americans in this country do you think can truly say they never once uttered something racist or bigoted?
