I'd rather be maybe too optimistic that less of us are racist than in your world where you are so jaded about people. And classify 100% of certain people as racists without actually knowing them personally.

It isn’t an optimistic or pessimistic thing SD it is a reality check thing. If it were that easy i would just wish all the scum away with positive chi. Lol.

Way more than 1 out of 100 people I know are racist. I know them. I hear it. I see it. I have distanced myself from all of them. But my original comment was confederate flag wavers are racist. Not people in general. That is 100 out of 100. So go on believing that most of the people waving confederate flags around are not racist. Lol. Its your prerogative. Mine is that all people waving confederate flags around are. As i stated prior maybe they are oblivious to what that flag stands for. I find that hard to believe but ill give them some wiggle room in order for myself not to he so black and white about the issue. Maybe they will read about the confederate flag and say oh man this is offensive to blacks. I really cannot remember ever seeing a black person with one on their lawn or their truck. That alone should telL u all u need to know about what that flag means. Maybe the people waving it around are the ones who need to educate themselves and rethink what it is they are waving around. If you want to call me jaded for that go ahead. I call myself aware.
