Good luck with that defense. ---

[New ad by right-wing PAC America Next calls liberals “the new racists.”](https://www.reddit.com/r/behindthebastards/comments/1xehwsv/straight_up_white_supremacist_propaganda/) (My two cents: between the Dutch-angled shots of politicians speaking on TV screens and the shadowed-for-anonymity narrator, this feels oddly like a pastiche of _NAZA_.) ---

If liberals are the “new” racists, that means there has to have been some other group of racists before them. Hmmm, who could that be? Witnessing these dingalings lose their shit over losing their majority / power would be hilarious if we weren’t all paying for it.
