- Gallup: Americans feel racism is much less of a problem since Trump took office
|
http://www.gallup.com/poll/1675/most-important-problem.aspx
 Kind of amazing how these reactions change when the party in charge of the executive branch no longer pushes racial victim rhetoric as a political tool. And before anyone wants to think this is a pro-Trump post, you'll notice the line three items above that one that show Americans are also 3.5x more dissatisfied with government (which is mainly Trump and Republican congress). This is not about anything good Trump has done, it's about the lack of something bad that Obama and Hillary were doing.

If I were experiencing an increase in racism and hate crimes from other people since the election, I would certainly say racism was the biggest problem, not government in general. Conversely, if I believed a president and party hopeful who were telling me every week that the system was racist and stacked against me, and then I had a new president that stopped saying those things, I'd probably pick a different issue as my priority.

It's almost like that stuff you guys say all the time is bulls***... First of, that is a terrible reading of the data. When you feel the leadership is promoting racism (as well as other issues) then of course many people will feel the leadership is the most important issue. How can racism get better if the lawmakers promote racism? Second, this is not an evaluation of the issues, merely the MOST problematic right now. There is absolutely nothing in those numbers that say if they feel racism, as taken by itself, is worst or better than before. |

What kind of argument are you guys trying to make? I know there's a word for it. Is it a strawman?
Because no one is saying racism doesn't exist that just nonsense. You will never eliminate 100% of racism because people suck. But people like Obama used isolated instances to drive a narrative that divided the country and garnered voter support. Not race baiting for the sake of political gain is a good thing the fact you argue against this makes me think you're either a troll or just plain ignorant.

Ugh, the source for this the far-left wing propaganda group, Southern Poverty Law Center. They're the same group that ran with Pepe the Frog being a hate symbol:
https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2016/09/28/pepe-joins-echoes-new-hate-symbols
Of course they've "seen" a rise in "hate crimes," that's how they maintain funding. Their scam has been well exposed:
http://thefederalist.com/2017/05/17/12-ways-southern-poverty-law-center-scam-profit-hate-mongering/
The only reliable source for hate crime statistics are the FBI, and the reporting lag for them is over a year:
https://ucr.fbi.gov/hate-crime/2015
Needless to say, if there really was a "massive rise" in hate crimes, people sure don't seem to be letting the Gallup pollsters know about it.- The AdmiralThe Admiral posted...They're the same group that ran with Pepe the Frog being a hate symbol:

Take me away, I don't mind, but you better promise I'll be back in time!why are you putting quotes around massive rise as though i said massive rise
also you clearly did not read the SPLC's own article on pepe
here is what it says:The popular Internet meme co-opted by the racist Alt-Right movement and widely used on social media officially landed Tuesday on the Anti-Defamation League's official list of hate symbols, along with the (((echo))) symbol designated this summer.
The ADL added the cartoon character to its online Hate on Display database, a 16-year-old collection that contains more than 150 symbols and images representing bigotry or hate.
so again to be clear, they are not the ones who ran with pepe as hate symbol. they announced the ADL did so. you're welcome to denounce the ADL as a left-wing propaganda group but i think you are familiar enough with them to know that they're not.

Attacking the messenger is completely justified when the source is a propaganda organization that uses its own definition for hate crimes and doesn't provide any transparency on where its data is generated. Their figures also include both hate crimes and "bias incidents," which can be defined to support any conclusion they want.
