He is exaggerating for the comedic effect. It is sarcasm.I disagree with him. The conservatives are just as racist as the liberals. They both hate currys, they just express it in different ways.

Conservative racism is actually more respectful because there's an aspect of fear, as in "respecting your enemy"
Liberal racism is the worse because they quite literally look down on you, see you as inferior and treat you as inferior, as they have nothing to worry about because you are so beneath them, its the kind of messiah complex shit you see with white liberals when it comes to black americans
Exhibit A:

Its "the soft bigotry of low expectations"
They are in no way "just as racist" when you think about it
Would you rather be seen as a "threat" because you have potential, because you have attributes that should be feared? (fear is a form of respect)
Or would you rather been seen as a bitch that has to pitied and catered too because you are so inferior you need the help and you need special privileges to be made to cater specifically to you
For me that isn't rocket science, I'd rather be feared, liberals are 100% more racist, the look at ethnics the same way a human looks at an abused animal at an animal shelter
Its bites your hand - "Oh its not its fault, its an animal, and it was abused, it just needs a bit of training"
don't forget that conservatives support the war on drugs which disproportionately hurts blacks and hispanics (and hurts whites to a lesser degree). an insane amount of black and hispanic people have had their lives ruined or spent years in jail over some marijuana. clearly that is a greater evil than white liberals being culturally insensitiveThis is mental gymnastics of the highest order. While a compelling case can be made that liberals are as racist as their conservative counterparts, suggesting that they're more racist and by extension more harmful to the cause of Black is quite a step too far in my view. Even putting a historical assessment of your claim aside, which would invariably show conservatives and reactionaries more likely to impose harm on black people, either through resistance to progressive reforms, advocating for legislative schemes inimical to the edification of Blacks or at worst direct violence, the policy positions of conservatives today continue to stand at odds with what is in the best interest of Black people; advocating against a more robust healthcare apparatus that would best serve the needs of minorities and poor people generally, standing firmly against more racial equity and concomitant accountability on such issues, opposing any government attempt to increase educational funding for underserved communities that would surely help bolster black communities and stem the downward spiral in Black economic outcomes etc.
In light of what I've said, I would love to hear what policy positions conservatives have advocated that would benefit black people vis-a-vis those advanced by individuals on the left.

there's nothing wrong with doing marijuana. its a cope just like video games or unhealthy foodMaybe the war on drugs wouldn't hurt blacks and hispanics if they didn't take drugs like us currys. I wouldn't even know who to get drugs from if I wanted it.

I agree with everything you said. high effort postI don't know why this argument always gets made. There is no legitimate comparison that can be made between the offspring of upwardly mobile educated Indians and African Americans who languished under a pseudo apartheid regime for more than a century, all the while denied educational and gainful employment opportunities. It is no surprise that people who are disenfranchised or otherwise prevented access to gainful employment opportunities would turn to crime. Further, it bears mentioning here that the principal point being highlighted is the skewed drug sentencing guidelines historically put forth for the possession of crack and cocaine. The possession of crack under historic criminal justice prescriptions was punished significantly more than the possession of cocaine. This prescription was not incidental, however, but was rather by design. Crack was a drug sold and used by Black people. Cocaine was a drug consumed and peddled by rich white people. Hence this criminal justice mandate became the basis by which to punish black people disproportionately and funnel them into the slavery-carceral-industrial complex. Biased and quite frankly racist sentencing guidelines, many of which I have not noted here, coupled with the "war on drugs" decimated Black communities as they were designed to do by Nixon and those who would follow him. The 13th is a very good Netflix documentary on this. I've also enclosed some supplementary reading for your benefit.
