I've seen it a lot. This is real.

[Heartstrings]

[burrowowl]

1. That about sums it up!

[Skittles]

2. yup

this is why people who were fine with the insurrection attempt think nothing of questioning the patriotism of kneeling football players

[PutGramaOnThePhone]

10. So true...

makes me sad….and angry

[Skittles]

12. the logical disconnect is stunning

but, that's what it takes to BE a white supremacist and make no mistake, that is what Trump humpers are

[Wounded Bear]

3. A lot of people have a false sense of patriotism...

We need to realize and study the ugly parts of our heritage if we ever expect to prevent them continuing.

The whitewashing of American history needs to stop and be countered so ALL Americans can enjoy the benefits of living here.

[PutGramaOnThePhone]

11. Right....

on! Well said.

[Mr. Steve]

23. K & R

Must be repeated over and over.

[alittlelark]

4. Wish that could be condensed to a bumper sticker

Seriously

[PurgedVoter]

5. Keep speaking the truth!

This one hits deep.

[FakeNoose]

6. Paging Colin Kaepernick

For all I know, Kaepernick might have even said this!

[calimary]

7. No kidding!

Gotta say, I was sure that we would have come farther than this, by now.

[marble falls]

8. Exactly what Critical Race Theory is about: Exclude someone from the system long enough ...

... and it feeds the bigotry of the majority.

[elleng]

9. ;-(

[wnylib]

13. So very true. Cuts right to the heart of the truth.

Needs to be displayed everywhere.

[liberal N proud]

14. Yep

[smirkymonkey]

15. +1000

[Jon King]

16. Its amazing how much it bothers them to even talk about racism.

Great post OP.

[StClone]

17. Oh My that is so ON!

[TigressDem]

18. Wait a minute. WHO WON IN 2020?

The MAJORITY of Americans voted for DEMOCRACY which IS about EQUALITY.

The PISSY people who are SCREECHING about BLM and excusing insurrectionists ARE NOT THE MAJORITY. THEY LOST.

This ugly white minority of idiots trying to block every attempt to keep America moving forward ARE NOT WHAT AMERICA IS ABOUT.

Just because the Confederacy is still pissed that we whooped them in the Civil War, does NOT MEAN America has abandoned equal rights for all.

DO NOT GIVE THE PISS ANTS THIS MUCH POWER.

THEY ARE THE LOSERS.

THEY DON'T DESERVE TO SPEAK FOR AMERICA.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

20. With all due respect to you and OP... Have zero

idea what you are talking about. Could you please dumb down and rephrase?

[TigressDem]

27. Sorry if your moniker says it all.....

It would be impossible to dumb it down any more.

AMERICA IS NOT ABOUT RACISM --- IF We The People have ANYTHING to say about it.


I will admit that the people screeching the loudest are being GIVEN the Bully Pulpit, BUT THEY DON'T DESERVE IT.


It IS a sad truth that many people believe that racism is a family value. DOES NOT MAKE IT A FACT.


AND I thought, probably in error, that at least here on DU there would be people to fight FOR America as a place of equality.

That OUR ideals of Democracy and doing what is best for ALL the People, not just some, would be worth fighting FOR instead of laying down and giving up by declaring that the racists have won, so why bother?

THEY DID NOT WIN. THEY ARE NOT THE VOICE OF AMERICA since they are the losers. They are a minority voice with a sad opinion and they are still wrong and still NOT worthy to be considered the voice of America.


Again, I guess we have been taken over by trolls and no one gives a shit any more.


Just put stuff up that people can get upset about. Sounds like Alt Reich tactics to me.

[lunatica]

19. It applies to any criticism of the US too

Just before the war on Afghanistan and Iraq I said something about Bush probably making the mistake of going to war and was told by a co-worker to go live in another country if I didn’t like it here. A couple of years later she told me I had been right about Bush.

[Mike Nelson]

21. This meme does...

... illustrate a truth. I've seen it on Facebook and can see the reaction from different groups. Of course, Occupy Democrats and the like can see the meaning. All most people see is that it says "Racism Is American" ... and, they don't, or don't want to, agree. They don't think of the entire statement and consider why... I've had exchanges with people and explained. The meme is effective... But... I wonder if it's more thought-provoking or anger-provoking...

[TigressDem]

28. Yes, it does show that people DO see US this way.

I can agree with that.

However, it seems to me we need to find a way to counter balance that voice of insanity.

RACISTS have NO RIGHT to claim to be the voice of America.

They lost the civil war. They lose elections. They lose their minds on public TV.

THE WINNERS get to determine the outcome and pry America from their cold dead minds, because they have lost their collective sanity if they think they can MAKE America Racist AGAIN.

NEVER.


NEVER.


NEVER.

[twodogsbarking]

22. This is golden.

The best I've ever had.

[NEOBuckeye]

24. Yep.

[patphil]

25. There's a lot of fake patriots out there.

They have decided that patriotism only exists in the hearts and minds of the far right.
Unfortunately, the far right is pretty much heartless, and out of their minds.

26. 75,000,000 of them voted for Loser-45 in 2020
