      Not blatantly, no. But libs traffic in the subtle racism of lowered expectations of certain races and the individuals that make them up.

      They also like to use minorities as props to tug on people's heartstrings and get their votes, and then throw the minorities to the wolves.

      Personally, I think an enemy is easier to defeat when their positions are laid bare. Its hard to fight people who don't see themselves as bigots, cause first you have to show them that they are. Problem is, they believe that being a member of the democratic party means they couldn't possibly be intolerant and fuck you for even suggesting such a thing.

      Virtue signalling to obfuscate bad politics is really bad.

        Agreed. Its just hard to parse what's worse: someone blatantly racist, or someone willingly ignorant to the racism around them. It kind of doesn't matter because it's all different shades of suck.
