Mexican Archie Bunker

[AyatollahGondola]

I revived this video because I recently had several viewers tell me that people of color (other than white I guess) are not racist. Maybe they can't be too because they have experienced the denigration of racism, and therefore would never be able to practice it. Most of us thinking people know otherwise, but since there seem to be non-believers out there, I'm going to use this thread as a staging area for examples beginning with this one that I referred to as a Mexican Archie Bunker for his statements to us protesters at an event in Fulton, CA where we tried to point out the evils of day labor sites like that one.

I've heard slight variations of this guy's patter a thousand times here in L.A.

The justification for illegals goes like this -

The "Mexicans" (they never use the term "illegal aliens") are just trying to make better lives for themselves. They are vastly preferable to "white people" who you commonly see begging for money on freeway onramps. Consequently (so the reasoning goes), since they're trying to work and others who are citizens are not, they are not objectionable.

There is more prejudice and conflict between the myriad forms and incarnations of "Hispanics" than what is put on them by white people.

And many among "Hispanics" can be plenty racist against everyone else. Brown "Hispanic" racists of the American born variety explain away their racism as "cultural pride".

There is ONE UNIVERSAL FACT about racism and my mother (of EAST EUROPEAN and EAST ASIAN ancestry), revealed it to me long ago: that racism comes in ALL colors!

Racism becomes what the media wants it to become and where it wants it placed. Years ago it was communism that was the big evil enemy, today they've given that face to anyone who doesn't go along with their brainwashing view of society and called it racism. Funny how communism has practically become the good guy and those who are against its cousin socialism are now the evil doers of society. And this has all happened in one persons lifetime.
