Anthony Bourdain interview on political correctness, Bill Maher smugness

[Dr. Sebi Jr.]

Malcolm warned us about the smug liberal.

When liberals try to explain things nicely, conservatives dismiss them as naive, overly sympathetic, and out of touch with reality.

When liberals explain things not so nicely, conservatives dismiss them as smug meanies who need to do more listening.

At what point are liberals allowed to explain things?

Also, if you're a minority and not a Republican they automatically assume you want handouts, and trying to convince them otherwise is a hopeless in my opinion.

when did you last hear a conservative call a liberal racist?

There are literally people on FOX News all the time talking about how Obama hates all white people. Hell, Rush Limbaugh commented the other day about how Trump saved white people from being enslaved or something.

So yeah, conservatives call people racist all the time; it's just that they only care about perceived racism towards white people. If it's against anybody else it's "political correctness".

Liberals too often fall back to childish insults and cartoonish rhetoric, conservatives just repeat misinformation.

Misinformation plays better to the average person even if they think it's probably a lie

You can't be serious there are countless examples of conservatives like Ann Coulter who call people on the left the real racists.

Here are a few from a simple google search:
Liberals Can't Break 200-Year Racism Habit

That was in response to people accusing them of being racist...we can be pedantic or just admit its liberals who throw out the racist label more often than not.

 

[re'up]

On Political Correctness, which is a term that has lost any, or most of it's original meaning, now, is used by bigots, sexists, racists, to justify their distorted and disgusting views...Some are more tempered, some are extreme and obvious, you don't get a pass to say whatever you want, and not face consequences for said comments. People just want to say racist, biased, dangerous comments, and have carte blanche. This new narrative post election that 'liberals' have been too hard, and too quick to 'cry racisim' is laughable, if it weren't so dangerous and toxic.

You didn't say conservatives only call people racists after being accused of being racist though, you said :

when did you last hear a conservative call a liberal racist?

And those are examples. However here are some examples of conservatives accusing people of being racist without the label being applied to them first:

On Fox & Friends today, Glenn Beck called Obama "a racist" during a discussion of how the president handled the arrest of Henry Louis Gates.

"This president, I think, has exposed himself as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture," Beck said. "I don't know what it is."

Following up on Beck's ridiculous claim, Fox's Brian Kilmeade pointed out that Obama is surrounded by white advisers like David Axelrod, Robert Gibbs and Rahm Emanuel.

"I'm not saying he doesn't like white people," Beck said. "I'm saying he has a problem. He has a -- this guy is, I believe, a racist."

Fox's Beck: Obama is 'a racist' -

Ben Stein on Sunday blasted President Obama for being the most racist president in American history, arguing that he and fellow Democrats are purposefully using race to divide the American people.
