Sure, say to those people, “Look, the racist Dems have created a huge racial wealth gap between white and black families, let’s OWN the racist Dems by creating and supporting policies that help the most impoverished black families and close the wealth gap.”
All of the sudden they won’t care about racism, they’ll care about “it’s because of black culture”, “thugs”, “black on black violence”, “welfare queens”, “absent father”, “well that’s racist against white people”.
But yeah, if you find me one Republican that’s like, “yeah, let’s own the racist Dems by lifting impoverished black families and decreasing the racial wealth gap”, that’s a Republican I was wrong about.
The current focus on race-based equity instead of equality just emphasizes it in their minds.
I’m having a bit of trouble following your logic. Is this an accurate summary?
To prove that some of them think you are the racist for treating people of one skin color differently than others, they have to pass laws that specifically benefit people of that skin color, despite the fact that they think such behavior is inherently racist.

Bingo, this is the part where those same people say that Dems are racist against white people.
Schrodinger’s Democrats: simultaneously racist against black people and against white people.
There’s no coherent logical story, because it’s not supposed to make sense, it’s supposed to muddy the waters.
Thank you for clarifying. That definitely gives me a better understanding of your view.
