6. Nothing new here, Effie
Absolutely nothing new here at all. The backlash against MHP for writing about the double standard didn't do anything but reveal the double standard to the nine people who didn't already know it existed.

it is acceptable to call a black liberal a racist if that black liberal has criticized white liberals because, while a white liberal cannot, by definition, be racist, a black liberal can be and is racist if she says anything that offends white liberals. However, the converse is NOT true; a white liberal can never be called a racist or prejudiced or insensitive regardless how deeply anything they say or do may offend black liberals because, as noted above, white liberals can never be racist or prejudiced or racially insensitive and calling a white liberal any of these things means that one is themselves a racist.

You nailed it. Absolutely nailed it.
