So Kudlow believes that because 40% of the American population voted for a Black President, there is no racism in the US. That’s some logic.

Has he taken a look at the other 60% lately? If not, he may want attend that rally on Saturday to refresh his memory.

Just because Chief Justice Roberts declared that we now live in a Post-racial America doesn’t make it anymore true that there is an Easter Bunny. All you have to do is look at all those cell phone, body cam and patrol car videos that have captured what’s really going on in Black communities across the entire nation.

That unnecessary violence is police brutality, as well as systemic racism, not love of one’s neighbor. We all know what Jesus would have done and it’s not what Republicans are selling as Law and Order. He would be right out there in the streets with His people protesting.

“Kudlow Finds It ‘Hard To Understand’ Systemic Racism Because White People Voted For Obama”

This statement seems to cry out for a good, educational, effort to clearly define what systemic racism is.

He cannot be that dumb. He is trying to ‘feed’ Donnie a fkn talking point because everyone know DONNIE is that dumb. I’m pretty darn sure Trump doesn’t get the difference between white power and white ‘voting’.

It’s “a kudlow”.

(Apologies if someone posting earlier than me already said the obvious thing.)

Not only did some white people vote for Obama, but some of them like fried chicken too. Go figure!.

Traditionally, that would be known as a “gentleman’s C” … but none of the enablers, grifters, and traitors of the Trump administration can aspire to that lofty title.

Kudlow is Lloyd Christmas dumb

Jon Stewart’s comment about us using the police as surrogate reminds me of a story I heard as a high-schooler in the 1970s. I can’t personally vouch for the accuracy of the story, but it has stuck with me through the decades and life has not given me a reason to think that what I heard wasn’t at least broadly true.

The person who told me the story was an older teammate, a recent college graduate, who had been a college teammate of a South African Afrikaner. The Afrikaner’s family owned a farm in SA. He insisted that his family did not mistreat the bkacks that worked on the farm: “When they are bad, we call the police, and the police beat the blacks.”

American society has differed from Apartheid South Africa only in degree and, at times and places, by only a small degree. The white fear in South Africa was more existential than in the US, but the elites in both places practiced economic suppression primarily for economic benefits and social suppression primarily for political benefits.

Systemic racism, in my view, is the continuation of this suppression without specific underlying legal authority and sometimes even without conscious intent. Where there is not conscious intent, we are still guilty if we fail to be conscious of the obvious effects and when we fail to address those effects. We participate in systemic racism when we do not feel compelled to address the racial inequalities.

No offense but the US is not now nor has it ever been like SA.

He finds it hard to understand classism as well because none of his neighbors have pitchforked him.
