By whatever word they name it, the action remains the same. New words, new difinitions, new “justifications” come along constantly, but human nature tends to stay the same.

Living in an active Retirement Community, surrounded by elderly folks who, for the most part are very kind, generous, worldly, well spoken and content, you would think they would be as generous and welcoming in their dealings with their fellow man once they reach “the golden years”. But sad to say, it ain’t necessarily so. Some of the predjudiced, racist (by your definition) things that come out of those sweet old peoples mouths are embarressing to hear. Yet they would be very quick to tell you they’re not racist. They’re using their own definition you see….

So it doesn’t really matter what they call it or how they define it - it’s just too bad it’s still so prevalent.

As for Affirmative Action - my working career was caught up in that ridiculous fiasco working for state government and I’d rather forget about it.

Now, as for the Leftist use of the word “racist” - it’s so overblown that the new definition of racism is any action that the Left disagrees with. Don’t like gansta rap? You’re racist. Don’t like race based quotas that favor the minority of the week? You’re racist. Do you hold everyone to the same standard, regardless of what they look like? You’re a racist.

As a word, it has completely lost it’s meaning, due to overuse by the Leftist moonbats who froth at the mouth when anyone brings up the fact that the programs they advocate are actually harming people rather than helping them. I mean, didn’t someone call Thomas Sowell a racist because he spoke out against Affirmative Action? That’s when you know the word has no value any more.

I’m going to descend to Niewert’s level then, and just take your word for it:

He’s a fuckwit.
