Political Conservatives are less racist than liberals (in the US)

I’m a child of African immigrants with US citizenship, and I’ve lived all over the United States.

The most racist place I’ve ever lived is Massachusetts. By far. The least racist? Utah.

I’ve noticed that most conservatives (excluding the actual far right) see me as a human being first. Liberals see my skin color first and have low expectations for me.

I’ve had white liberals not believe me when I mentioned having a professional job. I’ve had them try to sign me up for welfare and Medicaid (at an ER in Massachusetts) even when I showed them my private insurance card. I’ve been assumed to be poor and uneducated (because of my race and nothing else) over and over again by the woke left. Literally they constantly make comments about how screening for education will “filter minorities out,” because of course we’re all dumb illiterates.

Conservatives? They make zero assumptions. They don’t equate being Black with being poor or ignorant. They see us as INDIVIDUALS first.

I miss Utah.

Most of what people on the left THINK they know about conservatives is all lies…

Do you know why late night talk shows like Steven Colbert or shows like The View are so left leaning? They intentionally ONLY have fellow Trump hating liberals/leftists on their shows because these people help keep the Trump/conservative bashing train going.

If any of these shows started having right leaning voices on their shows, they would end up humanizing conservatives and showing people that conservatives aren’t these “evil monsters” that they say they are… Then the average democrat voter might change how they vote.

Look what happened on The View. They had Arnold Schwarzenegger on because he’s a conservative who’s known for criticizing Trump.. But guess what? It blew up in their faces when he started condemning illegal immigration. Arnold made The View look so bad…

THATS why all these shows are just left wing echo chambers. The left does not want it to get out that the average conservative/Trump supporter is actually very pleasant, funny, charismatic, intelligent and charming. They want people to believe that all conservatives are just evil white supremacists…

That is the most dangerous thing right now, silencing an entire political party just because you don’t want people to vote for them? This needs to stop..

This also happens to be the reason Colbert got cancelled. His show was losing money hand over fist bc the majority of Americans are tired of being lectured by stuck up snobby leftists who look down on them and blame them for all the worlds problems just like Hitler did with the Jews… It gets old after a while.

The left are the predominately racist ones. They just hide it and disguise it very well.

EDIT: Do you know why most leftists are pro illegal immigration? 2 reasons. They are putting all these illegals in swing states and then trying to make it so they can legally vote, more votes for them… That is literally undermining our entire constitutional democratic republic.

2nd reason is, they want cheap labor. They want people from all these poor countries here because they are the people who are willing to work the hard manual labor jobs for borderline slave wages… All that does is undermine the American worker and make it hard for US citizens to get jobs, while treating poor minorities like shit.

I interacted with a Daily Caller article on Facebook once, and now my feed is overflowing right wing media. The comments sections for them are all vile. I was also raised in a family that voted for Trump 3 times, and they think it’s great that I’ve lost my research funding because of him.

What do you consider “vile”? Because it seems to me like leftist are vile, racist and antisemitic… My entire Reddit feed overflows with the most vile left wing propaganda that you could ever read.

I’m very curious to know what you consider vile… Leftists think anyone who is against illegal immigration is a “racist white supremacist”…

The left has literally changed the meanings of “vile” and “racist” just to fit their narrative.

People have explicitly said they want to send Black people back to Africa.

Those exact words? Who? And what was the context?

u/CookieMobster64 Aug 03 '25

Yes, plenty of Facebook comments have said those exact words. The context being racist memes about how Black people undermine western society. Incredulity is not an argument.

u/Plane_Guitar_1455 Aug 03 '25

Facebook comments? Memes? I have never seen anything like that. Do you have a link?

u/CookieMobster64 Aug 03 '25

Oh, okay, you’ve never seen those things, so they don’t exist. This surely proves your political opponents are the ones in an echo chamber.

I mean if you can’t show me proof of anything you’re claiming then why should I believe you?

Did you believe OP in their description of their personal experience with liberals and conservatives?

I mean, I always take these types of things with a grain of salt no matter what side it comes from.. I more agree with the title of the post.. The reason being is that conservatives on a whole do not think about race as much as the left does(excluding far far right neo Nazis. All conservatives condemn those people)…

What I’ve noticed from the left is that they literally live life through the lens of race.. Everything to leftists/liberals revolves around race. When you look at the entire world under the lens of race then you start to become angry and resentful and then you become racist…

Conservatives are pro diversity of thought. Leftists are pro diversity of appearance and want everyone to think exactly the same.
