Leftists are highly un-educated.
People can hold beliefs you dont like.
That includes racial pride and, yes, actual racism. And dont worry. We find you as equally repulsive. Perverted and deranged.
In a free country those things are not crimes. Its 100% legal.
And you are not the thought police. You do not get to dictate anything.
Just because you hate yourself and your race, we don't have to.
Thoughts are not prosecutable. Speech that doesnโt incite imminent violence is protected.
Acting on racial animus, discrimination in housing or hiring, violence, threats, can be illegal.
Just the same as liberal violence is.
Conflating the two is how you turn disagreement into a moral emergency and then into social punishment that looks a lot like a crime without the due process.
There is an obvious double standard on racial pride. Celebrating Black, Hispanic, Asian, or Indigenous heritage is treated as healthy identity. Doing the same for European ancestry is frequently labeled โproblematicโ or worse.
If pride in group history and achievement is legitimate for some, it is legitimate for all, or the principle is just tribal favoritism wearing progressive clothes.
Calling someone a racist is not the same as proving they committed a crime.
Treating the accusation as self-executing, jobs lost, platforms removed, reputations destroye, turns a slur into a substitute for evidence. Thatโs not justice. Itโs enforcement of an orthodoxy.
You can refuse to associate with people who hold it.
What you cannot coherently do in a liberal democracy is pretend that holding the belief itself is legally or morally equivalent to an act of violence.
Once beliefs become crimes, the only remaining question is who gets to define the forbidden ones.
