> voting for Bernie makes me a pro-globalization racist
I "get" the racist part (as in I get the causal structure in other people's brains that makes them come up with this, not that I agree with it), but not the pro-globalization part. Bernie Sanders was pretty vocal about his voting record on free trade (NAFTA, etc.), which he was consistently against.
- StevePerkins 10y agonot voting for Bernie (Although there is no shortage of people who will say that Bernie voters were privileged and racist for their condescension toward the black vote too. The fact that you can include or omit the "not", and people don't notice, kinda underscores the point.)
- johncolanduoni 10y agoSorry, I misread! Depressingly enough people calling you racist for it remains believable.
