  • The moment you utter the word ‘minority’, that means you are keeping score, and thus, are just as racist as the ones you rail against.

    Try this old ‘on-the-fly’ test from the 1980′s. If all three answers are the ‘same race’ as yourself, chances are 99% you are a ‘racist’ at some inner level, and won’t admit it:

    1. What race is your primary care doctor (this is your MD physician, if you have taken the time to shop around and choose one of your own free will. In today’s HMO/PPO/ACA world, chances are you go to who you were told to, but in the day, this was NOT the case)?

    2. If you attend regular church, is your pastor and/or the predominance of the congregation your same race? (again, in our changing anti-god secular world, you can substitute school or most-likely, workplace of preference for this one as well)

    3. If you are seriously committed in a relationship, or are married or have been married, was your spouse the same race as you? (this one needs no explanation)

    If you answered ‘YES’ to all three primary questions, chances are you are most-likely a racist of some amount. Counter to this point, if you answered ‘NO’ to all these questions, then chances are you are trying to ‘counter-correct’ for inner perceived racism so strongly, that most of ‘minimum bias’ would see you as a ‘reverse racist’ if they spoke to you for only a few minutes of time.

    Try this test on a few of your acquaintances and see if it doesn’t hold up. What you learn from it will scare you.
