Democrats support identity politics sort of

Democrats tell Hispanics, Blacks, gays, transgendered, and Asians that their true identity isn't as Americans but as members of their identity group, a fancy name for a tribe.

But for some strange reason if whites start talking the same way that other identity groups do the Democrats scream racism.

The problem is that if whites identified as whites first and wanted laws that benefited whites only they would be racists. Luckily for the various minorities no significant portion of white Americans have thought that way since the 1960s.

But that could change.  Anti-white racism by minorities who are being egged on by Democrats could invoke a counter reaction.  When Blacks knew that they could be denied a job because of their race they were rightly resentful of white people.  But people are people irrespective of their skin color so it would be reasonable to assume that consistent discrimination against white people solely because of their skin color will engender resent among whites.  How many parents have to see that their kid doesn't get into a good college while a less qualified Black kids does before white people start saying "enough"?

The vast majority of white people fully support stamping out racial discrimination.  To be called a racist is a horrible thing in America precisely because white Americans find racism to be odious.

But racism is intrinsically evil no matter which race it targets so the Democrats are running a real risk of creating the sort of racial divisions in the US which could lead to real violence.

It's time to demand that the Democrats redefine racism to cases where someone actually discriminates based on the persons race not when a person opposed the political agenda of the Democrat party.
