Rules of good writing (2007)

Nice. Are racists wrong?

I don't think your shaming and undermining writing has worked on anyone.

Hi Scott! Yes, racists are wrong and calling them out works.

“If nearly half of all Blacks are not OK with white people ... that’s a hate group”

Is that wrong though? If the poll is true it would be half of Blacks who are racist. If half of Muslims would say it is not OK to be a Jew, would a jewish person be in the right to be wary of them?

Of course that is already happening and in the US all racial/ethnic groups cluster together and segregate themselves.

It's a classic case of survey subjectivity and misportrayal. There was a poll which included the question:

> agree or disagree with this statement: 'It's OK to be white.'

Of the black respondents, 53% agreed, 26% disagreed, 21% weren't sure. The slogan "it's OK to be white" has been heavily used in white supremacist campaigns. Many of the 26% who disagreed, may have been disagreeing with it's use to white supremacy.
