View Full Version : South Carolinas casual racism.
Universal Struggle

A statesman in South Carolina has been caught saying
"we already have one raghead in the whitehouse we dont need one here" refering to gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley, a Christian of Indian Sikh descent.
I mean, if people do not see the government for what it is, and always has been, i sometimes think we will never get to the revolution.
It seems racism is so embedded in peoples phsyche, that it is not even that important when it becomes so visible.
I hate the woman, and i hate Obama.
This is not about defending black or Indian American capitalist bastards, it is about decrying racism, bigotry and injustice.
This shit really ruined my day.
Fuck you south Carolina.
Also an elderly lady politician was forced to retire today, for telling Isreal to get the hell out of palestine.
Then i found out, a school had to stop teaching chinese culture, because a woman said anything chinese is tainted with communism.
I just kinda thought, yeah and everything American is tainted with the misery of the wretched

Yeah, that episode of the Daily Show that talks about everything you described was pretty good.
I laughed at the casual racism, myself.
Also, Helen Thomas was a reporter, not a politican. She's been covering the White House since 1960.

Here in North Carolina, there's a mix between racism & non-racism. Though, class war, although is not embraced too much, is very present in this state, & I'm sure South Carolina is as well. Here, in N.C., we're about to pass the Arizona Law as well, so I'm sure this state will start to see more racism than before.

I think it's ironic I didn't know how awesome Helen Thomas was until she said the things she said that forced her into retirement.

The bill was talked about but they can't pass it since it expired. Gives me some time to hopefully build something here to combat it.
On the original post, I hadn't come across it until not, being in South Carolina right now. It doesn't surprise me since there is nothing Leftist in SC at the moment. However, I'm looking to change that.

There's a good number of leftists here, but me & others are hoping to radicalize them here soon. Good luck comrade.

Nice. And thanks. Good luck to you as well. I know there are a ton of Communist and Socialist groups in NC. Are you involved or in contact with any of those?

None in the area of N.C. that I'm at. Which is what we're wanting to fix. I live in Dobson, which is about 3 hours away from Raleigh.

Helen Thomas was absolutely correct. Jon Stewart's blind support of Israel was both disappointing and completely expected. I honestly see no difference between Zionism and white nationalism. (sorry, it's kind of on topic, since we're discussing that episode)

Wait. Helen Thomas did what to Jon Stewart?

THOMAS: They need to go home.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Where is home?
THOMAS: Poland, Germany.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: They should just go back to Poland and Germany?
THOMAS: And America and everywhere else.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O'REILLY: Apparently, Ms. Thomas has never read the Bible.
And joining us now from North Carolina, Fox News analyst Bernie Goldberg, the purveyor of the very fine website BernardGoldberg.com.
Great comeback there Bill. :rolleyes:

I hate the amount of blatant racism in this country. It seems as if everything is alright even racism some places. I also am not here to defend minority capitalists, but at the same time racism is so disgusting that I sympathize with those affected by it even if they are capitalists. This kind of racism needs to be stopped. President Obama and both parties should take some time to raise awareness about this issue and make the bastard pay for using those words.

This is so idiotic that I can't even begin to counter it.
I mean, zionism doesn't exist... Helen Thomas made a horrible, racist statement that needs to be condemned... Jon Stewart isn't pro-Israel, he's pro-peace-in-the-Middle-East, as evidenced by his condemnation of the flotilla incident....
I mean, if you seriously think Zionism exists you're a fucking nitwit. It's been dead since the nineteenth century.

I'm not sure if I should bite, because I don't think you're serious. Stop trolling.
I do think Helen Thomas made an unacceptable statement, as its tantamount to ethnic cleansing at this point, but I will always understand such sentiment because, frankly, we're dealing with a settler population.

If every small group of pissed off Jews counted as the world-encompassing Zionist conspiracy the people who talk about Zionism mean..... Then it'd be a problem.
As it is, those guys are just like the National Socialist Party. Annoying, but not the organised threat you make them out to be.
You're blowing these people out of proportion.

My point is that Zionism still exists and still holds a certain sway over politics. There are still people in America and all over the world who are committed to the pro-Israel movement regardless of what means they use to silence the Palestinians and have influence in the political lobbies.
I truly hope that I am overstating the problem, but unfortunately that's not the way that I see it today.

Well, I overplay the influence of Nazis in politics, so maybe I shouldn't be talking about overemphasising minor threats :P
