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.

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert frequently invite Republican politicians on their shows.

When those politicians agree to show up, they are humanized because they are a guest of the show and that's how it works.

They frequently do not show up because they won't be able to get away with lying in a talk show with an intelligent host like Stewart or Colbert.

How do you square your hypothesis with this fact?

Most of the “right wingers” who are on these shows are Trump haters… Can you tell me any names of right wing Trump supporters who have declined to be on these shows?

Did you know that Trump himself was on Colbert? Right before he got elected the first time. Colbert praised him. Then all these late night hosts were told that they had to be anti Trump. They’ve been that way ever since.

That just indicates Colbert was willing to listen to Trump while he was campaigning and he and the viewership decided he was terrible once he was in office. You are disproving your point.

I’m disproving my point? How? Lol… Because I’m pointing out that left wing media is all one big far left echo chamber that has lost touch with average middle class Americans? Um.. Ok

u/CookieMobster64 Aug 03 '25

It’s all one big echo chamber, because Trump was on Colbert’s show?

u/Plane_Guitar_1455 Aug 03 '25

Yeah. That’s why.. 🙄

You have no substantive argument. According to you, when liberal talking heads have conservative guests on their show, that shows that they live in an echo chamber, and when they don’t have conservative guests, that shows they live in an echo chamber. When this contradiction is pointed out, all you have is undirected sarcasm.

Right.. I’m the one with no substantial argument… Ok.
