AOC is racist.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and other members of the progressive "Squad" spent thousands of dollars on private security despite calling on cities to defund police departments, Federal Election Commission filings show.
So while AOC deprives inner city blacks (not inner city white privilege folks) from police security, AOC supports private security for themselves.
I'm not so sure I understand the conflict of interest in this statement, "So while AOC deprives inner city blacks (not inner city white privilege folks) from police security,..."
If the police are defunded it would seem to affect both groups equally.

I might agree with that, definitely extremely pro Hispanic at the expense of others. Does that make her a racist some might argue yes she does pander that’s for sure.

Expect a post now bout the Americans Indians have been treated—that will do to deflect, and balance things a bit.

Who keeps playing the race card on every issue? The Democrats. Race wouldn't even be discussed here if the Democrats weren't crying out systemic racism, Jim Crow voting laws, critical race theory, reparations, etc.

See this is why some white liberals on this site say I try and get kudos from the white conservatives.
A round about way of calling me a coon or Uncle Tom.
With that being said that is a valid argument. Was racism horrific up until the mid to late 1960’s of course it was.
Is it anywhere near as bad as it was of course not. Jim Crow did exist but it’s over, reparations I’m leaving that alone. Critical Race Theory is racist at its very core, it’s divisive and black people should stand firmly against.
If for nothing else because of the racism our people have faced in this country for that matter worldwide in the past and some places still face today. Promoting reverse racism makes you no better than the racist who abused our ancestors in the past. It makes my friggin blood boil 😤

If the police are defunded it directly affects blacks, in the inner cities, and those who call for defunding are rich enough to hire their own security. Sounds racist to me.

No. If done equally those in high crime areas will see the biggest increase in crime.
But the point also is the white privilege folks make up for with their own security,

So you would be in favor of ignoring systemic racism, Jim Crow voting laws, critical race theory (which I strongly believe you have no concept of) and reparations, in order to keep race from being discussed in the attic?

Or, that you can't understand. Your posts all add something to the conversation, but rarely anything positive or that one should be proud of.
