      1. Thinking out loud for a bit about unwillingness of conservatives to call killing of 9 blacks by white supremacist a racist act.

      2. First principle: conservatives aren't necessarily racists but they are invariably anti-anti-racist.

          3. Anti-anti-racism is the ideology that racism is over, a thing of the past, so any efforts to remedy it are unnecessary and indeed racist

          @HeerJeet Do you really believe that Anti-anti-racism is ever anything other than a pander to a racist constituency?

          @HeerJeet "Efforts to remedy racism" sounds, to some conservatives, like "make me give up part of the 95% of the pie I have".

          @HeerJeet And for some odd reason, most hate groups are aligned with rep candidates and right wing media.

          @HeerJeet @ishaantharoor conservatives believe that censorship wouldn't help correct racism: better let racists expose themselves.
