Between the "no one looks racist to me" and it has positive connotations! on my flist I am going to cut something. In my garden, don't worry. I'm not actually crazy.

Oh but it *does* have positive connotations! My daddy picked up and moved them here and I gots to grow up in a place where there isn't raci... where I'm not judged by the color..... where, um, we don't go hungry! yes, that's it!

Yea, they suck. They're stupid. But at least their brand of racism doesn't include deadly instruments which can hurt my mommy.
"no one looks racist to me"

Looks racist? What, do racists have to have it tatooed on their forheads now?
The "It has positive connotations!" people are driving me completely around the bend, and so are the "This is a good time to reclaim it!" ones.

Look, my beloved father's name was Eugene, but guess what? Even if I find myself in possession of billions of dollars, I won't ever be founding a school of "eugenics," because some words have just been ruined for decent usage.
Some people are crazy.
"Funny, they don't look racist..."
Frankly, drink is calling.
Stupid never gets old, it never gets sick, and it never dies.

Unfortunately. I'm honestly flummoxed over how so many people can be so damn stupid over this. Seriously.

I'll tell you a little story about my own racism sometime if you are interested. It's personal, but it fits in with this perfectly.
Didn't get this comment notification, but I'd love to hear it. Read it I suppose.
