Take the "are you a racist" quiz.
If you answer the questions correctly, you may win a "I'm with Bin Laden" tee shirt.

1. Name a group who is attempting to suppress the rights of homosexuals?

2. Name a group that wishes to silence science in preferrence of a childs story?

3. Name a group that champions war with Islam and is content to force its' rule on all mankind?



The answers:
1. Eskimoes
2. PETA
3. ACLU

Let me know if you answered all three correctly so I can send you the shirt.

1. Links?
Can you prove any of those? Or at least give context?

2. Is it me?
Or does your quiz make no sense whatsoever? Are you trying to assume the answers that a Neo-Conservative would give? If that is the aim of it, I can somewhat understand where you're coming... No, no I cannot. Your post makes no sense.

4. Sure it does.
Let's make villians out of the good guys, and good guys into villians. O.K. so that doesn't explain the eskimoes. That was thrown to confuse.

6. It demonstrates the vast denial we see
The oppressors scapegoat, blame, minimize and go to any lengths to justify their denial (including using "Christianity"). As long as they remain in denial, they are able to continue their hate filled practices.

5. I don't get it either
1. Name a group who is attempting to suppress the rights of homosexuals?

Well it can't be ACLU and it is not the PETA either. Maybe some Eskimos want to surpress it

2. Name a group that wishes to silence science in preferrence of a childs story?

Maybe PETA but that doesn't make sense either.

3. Name a group that champions war with Islam and is content to force its' rule on all mankind?

The ACLU is left, but I doubt whether they want to rule mankind. PETA doesn't make sense either unless it's Islamic fur. And I can't see the Eskimos wnat to start a war.

The Eskimos prefer the term Enuit. Is that the answer?

So call me a racist, because I can't figure it out.

7. I may be mistaken
but the way I am interpreting it, is that the racists demonize other groups who are actually fighting against their racist policies and practices. That was generally the point of using non-racist groups as the answers, to exemplify the irony of it.

We see this dynamic frequently. For instance, on a thread last night about feminism, those supportive of equality were accused of "male bashing" and called "oppressors." (by one poster)

So my post was posted after his post, but I was still trying to solve the puzzle :rofl:
