But black voters are far more racist, thank Heavens.
“Obama is supported by 91% of black voters and 57% of other minority voters.”
What’s that?
That huge black discrepancy isn’t racism though that much smaller white discrepancy is?
Uh huh.
Conservatives/Republicans feed and appeal to white racial fears and hostilities, it’s true.
But liberals/Democrats do the same much more nakedly with regard to blacks and other non-whites, and to much greater effect among the former.
Once in a while, they even try to paint the other side as anti-Semitic.
None of this is good for the country.
But the activists and propagandists of each side will do or say pretty much anything legal and much that is not in order to win.
Liberals/Democrats think that in the long run racial polarization plays into their hands as the proportion of whites among voters steadily declines.
Some conservatives/Republicans agree, with trepidation for the future.
But this supposes it will decline far enough, fast enough to pretty much destroy conservatism and the Republican Party as we know them before global warming destroys civilization.
Maybe so.
But maybe not.
