Genuine anti-racist point of view? Is there some kind fo high council which decides this? My anti-racist point of view is as valid here are yours or anybody elses. I'm stating my analysis. I don't need to consult with anybody on this list to state my anti-racist viewpoint on the 9/11 conspiracy movement.

I don't know any people of color. I live in a whites-only bubble world.
Jesus H. Christ, what is up with your comments? In a few minutes I'm going to go work at our new infoshop which sits in the middle of the African-American area of Kansas City. Our space sits on the "wrong side of Troost," with Troost being known as the racial dividing line in KC.
Not that any of this personal stuff matters to this conversation.

Which question should that be? Have you actually talked to all people of color? Since you are speaking for all of them, I'd like to know something about your polling methods.

Did I say that? Nope.

Then you aren't spouting theories that I'm addressing.

Wow! Now that's the smelliest bullshit I've heard on this list lately.
Fuck left unity. I'm all for destroying it if it means that people should self-censor their thoughts.
Fuck your motherfucking Central Committee.

You should see how much they are paying me! I get more money from the right wing than David Horowitz!
Let me be the first to throw boulders through the windows of the glass house of "left unity." Especially if "left unity" means marching lockstep behind irrational thinking and cult movements.
