This could become a detail of we go farther on that point, but as I and others have tried to point out, those 'lies' exist because there are kernals of truth to them.
Until Conservatives are willing to reckon with those kernals of truth, and why the Left has built such effective 'lies' around them, the Right will never be able to fight toe to toe with the Left effectively.
Had the Right been willing to face those hard truths about why they have the image they do, the protests and riots we are seeing may not be so bad. Yes the Left has lied and misrepresented things on the Right. But the Right has done itself no favors when you all bleat 'but those are lies' when people bring up image problems, instead of trying to counter act those lies by actually dealing with in-house issues.
Bull.
BLM took after the shooting in Ferguson. Even after
Eric Holder, an Anti-White Racist, was forced to conclude that the officer involved acted in self-defense, people are
still at this round of protests and riots chanting 'hands up don't shoot.'
Truth and reality have
absolutely nothing to do with what the left, especially the left in the media, will accuse the right of.
The only reason there are any number of racists and actual theocrats on the right and in the Republic party, is the law of large numbers. You cannot have millions of people without some outliers.
These people
demonstrably have no control over campaign platforms or policy, at least on the Federal level or any of the localities I've looked into. When you can show me
actual campaign platforms or
actual proposed legislation with a racist bent, then we can talk about there being a real problem.
You know what party
does have a visible and policy-affecting issue with racism? The Democrat Party. Their continued association with Louis Farrakhan, Eric Holder's open statement that he would not be prosecuting blacks, Robert Byrd's presence in the party until the late 2000's, Hillary calling him a mentor figure...
The racism problem is native to the left, as it has
always been. If you look at the cities where there are all these race riots? Overwhelmingly Democrat controlled. If you look at the cities where the majority of murders and violence against blacks are committed? Overwhelmingly Democrat controlled.
The problem isn't 'The right won't take a look at hard truths about themselves.' The problem is that the Democrats
desperately need a distraction from the fact that
their party still has major racism problems, never
stopped having racism problems, and has in fact started having parts of it advocate for the return of segregation. So they use their control of the media to prosecute a
relentless campaign of lies.
As their
constant distortions about 'peaceful protests' and 'mostly peaceful protests' proves,
yet again. The Democrats
need racial tensions, because that's half of how they've secured the black vote, and if they
lose overwhelming control of that vote, they are going to be
destroyed in elections.
If you want me to believe that conservatives in general, or Republicans in particular, have a 'hard truth' of racism to confront,
show me the campaign or policies that advocate it. If you can do that, I'll start seeing a serious problem. If you can't,
like every other person who has insisted to me that the right has a racism problem, then it'll be par for the course.
