Re: Things That Are Racist
...And the US flag wasn't flown by people with dark intentions? America as a WHOLE has a vast and colorful history of terrible things. Black slavery in the south is just scratching the surface.
It wasn't the south alone that tried their best to snuff out native american language and culture. Nor was it the south alone that sent more than a hundred thousand Japanese-Americans to internment camps, or branded the Irish as second class citizens, or massacred civilians in the Vietnam war, or made corporations legally people, or caused one of the worst economic crises of our nation's history with predatory loans.
All this vitriol is nothing more than hypocritical scapegoating.
