Wow. First, you essentially accused posters on this board of being racists,
or at least espousing or defending that which "most would see as racism", and yet you didn't provide a single example of such behavior. Let me see if I can help you one by one.
Hoogle is quoting the opinion of and African American author telling you about the tactics used by activists when they can't or won't debate the issues, they instead turn to accusing others of being racists. That is indeed a tactic we "can tell from these boards", quite possibly even your own post I responded to. Are you suggesting Shelby Steele, or quoting him, is racist?
My assumption is Brooks is probably trolling, but regardless, he doesn't even mention race, let alone espouse any racist beliefs of whites being superior.
Psycho is actually providing you FACTS. Aside from the fact that you not liking those FACTS doesn't make stating them racist, and the fact that at no point is he "blaming Floyd for his death" as you claimed, are you suggesting fentanyl at those (or any) levels couldn't have been a contributing factor in his death, or his behavior prior to complying? (and no, that absolutely does not excuse Ofc Chauvin's behavior in any way)
JM is stating an opinion. An opinion you can hear from many law enforcement and justice personnel. (Hoos Op even gives you the FACTS that help support that opinion in this link you picked) That's not claiming there aren't any racists in law enforcement. That doesn't even mean there aren't depts that have system wide problems with racism. I happen to agree with his opinion that the majority of cops, probably a sizable majority, are not racists (which would make it systemically not racist). That doesn't make his or my opinion that there is not systemic racism in law enforcement racist just because you don't agree with it, any more than your apparent opinion that there is systemic racism is racist.
Hoos Op is giving you the FACTS to explain why your opinion that there is systemic racism is wrong. Although he doesn't suggest you're a racist for holding that opinion, as you're suggesting he is. Again, just because you don't like the FACTS or find them inconvenient to your desired narrative, that doesn't make those FACTS, or putting them out, racist.
While, as Mr. Steele tells you, it may be effective at shutting down debate you can't or won't engage in, accusing or suggesting someone is a racist is about as vile as you can get short of rapist and child molester. I would suggest you and the left not throw it around so baselessly and casually.
