You have all but affirmed that you are willing to let the world be taken over piece by piece by a (potentially) evil empire with all its features in order to avoid a war. There are things worth fighting for and dying for and NATO was created to defend them. There’s a shit ton more of that on the search engine. I would quote more but I have to go to work. It would be nice if everyone was treated equally on the SDMB. If you have rules, they should be **consistently followed and applied.** Using coded language to imply blacks are dumb, stupid, and violent. That’s OK, and the rules encourage this kind of coded language. But calling that statement cowardly for not using the actual words is a personal attack? lol. What a joke. White fragility at it’s finest. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-much-has-the-republican-party-changed/817944)._
