Baloney.

I hope it’s obvious why this piece of propaganda only seeks to promote hatred and divide us all.

Anyone who promotes it as some kind of parsing tool is a hateful individual, regardless of what they say. In another age that would be obvious. But in this era of doublespeak and baloney surrounding these issues, the true libertines amongst us get shouted down for the very fact we love and promote freedom for all, equal rights for all, and will sit down to a table with whomever we damn well please without obsessing about his or her skin color.

A few of the items in that hateful chart openly decry color-blindness and promote color grouping (i.e., non-perceived-as-white grouping), and claim anyone who promotes color-blindness is hateful (?) and you can only follow and promote the words of Dr. King if you have the right (non-perceived-as-white) color of skin.

This chart ties you up and censors you, as you try to fight against the original sin of being the “wrong” color. It mixes in obviously ignorant remarks with those that are common ammunition of freedom-loving color-blind individuals (the greatest enemy of hateful color-obsessed individuals) so that it congregates the best ideas and intentions with the worst. This is a very well-known baloney tactic (called pulling statements/ideas purposefully out of context), meant to obfuscate and promote confusion in order to pander a hateful agenda.

Damned if you do and damned if you don’t; too bad I was born the wrong color to love freedom and admire my fellow man as a man, and not a “POC” first and a man second.

This is the dawn of a brave new world, where every man is a brother to every man, every woman a sister to every woman, all of us tied by our humanity and not superficial, perceived characteristics?

Baloney.

The “cure” is feeding the disease. Hate only and ever creates more hate. Whatever privilege and lack of perspective you assume this perceived-to-be-white to have, cannot negate that simple truth.
