“Hello Racist!”

Racial Imputists

New website “Hello Racist!” to shame offensive social posts: Will you be listed? A new website, Hello Racist!, has been launched to anonymously expose alleged “racists” on the internet. The site was designed to “expose racism, fight ignorance and be the place where people of all races, religion, and political beliefs can share their stories.” Users can post links or upload screenshots of online exchanges that included racist content. People can then rate the level of racism and leave a comment about the post. The posts contain memes, videos, online conversations, and personal accounts of racism. The site has more than 12,000 members so far. In speaking to the Huffington Post, the founder, who wishes to remain anonymous, shared their beliefs that racism is a learned behavior. “I think when some people are confronted and called out about their racism, it actually does change them,” the founder said. “They become ashamed and embarrassed. But they learn not to do it again.” Read more I love that "the founder wishes to remain anonymous." My guess is it's some pasty faced Liberal Millennial whose life is spent, literally, on social media.  The standard definition of racism is "the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races."  Do you know anyone that fits that all encompassing belief today?  The closest I can come is the Liberal dogma that conservatives  (aka solid Americans) are, by nature, racist.  Today's problem is not racism; it's what I'll call racial-imputism.  That is, the practice of imputing racism to groups or individuals because they don't agree with you. If this thing gets off the ground at all, I suspect it'll last until the first defamation suit is filed, which, if it's me, will happened PDQ. And if it's you, we'll have a defense fund.
