    It's not just about Lewk's comfortable denials (even tho he's a prime example), but that millions of Americans share the same ideas. Racism isn't real (and claims can't be believed) because we're a post-racial society. We elected a black man as POTUS, after all, so claims of institutional racism are bogus.

    No one suggests racism doesn't exist anymore, however I do suggest that absent proof we should err on the side of "yeah this could be an attention seeking hoax" as opposed to 'oh noes racism is everywhere again.'
    In other words, you continue to defend your racial bias...by claiming that "only a tiny percentage of the population is racist"?

    Really?

    Behind a paywall can't read that one. Heard about one on the radio the other day from America (so no link) but someone called the cops because she saw people who were . . . barbecueing while black.
