"Stand Up To Your Racist Family" At Thanksgiving, UVA Student Paper Op-Ed Urges

That’s the best approach- use these exchanges as an opportunity for learning. It’s challenging because they’re so easily ‘triggered’, you’ve just gotta keep your own cool - I genuinely think lefties are just at an immature stage of development- people only move beyond that by challenging their own thinking, which is hard to do when you’re young.

Many never do.

I disagree. Ignoring them never works, they never go away, Posting idiotic article like this one allows readers to see just how brainwashed our kids are becoming at these liberal run institutions.

An opinion columnist at the University of Virginia’s student newspaper encouraged her readers to “stand up” to “ racist family” at Thanksgiving.

Emma Camp, who writes a regular opinion column for the Cavalier Daily, asserted that “white progressives must privilege their principles over personal comfort” in conversations with family during the holiday season. In order to fulfill this mandate, they “need to stand up to their racist loved ones.”

Though Trump, who Camp defines as a “proto-fascist," who has "been defeated," she argues that “the hateful rhetoric, conspiratorial thinking and virulent racism, xenophobia and sexism he espoused during his tenure remain deeply entrenched in American political discourse.”

“When we sit silent over our uncle’s QAnon rants or our high school friends’ xenophobic comments,” she continues, “it shows that we value our own comfort over what we know to be our ethical duty.”

She again admonishes readers to prove that their “moral principles” are more important than their “relationship with racists.”

“No matter the outcome, standing up for your principles disrupts the presumption of agreement so often assumed by bigots,” concludes Camp.

I spent a lot of time undoing my old racist ways. They are doing everything in their power to make me back into my old ways, but they're too stupid to realise it. Leave the Saxon alone.

They're mainly undoing people's cultural, political conservatism, which is grounded in some hard truths, tough reality and basic common sense. That's something that you should undo the undoing of.

Leftists don't want to learn. They are often the most ignorant and superstitious people in any setting. You can argue back with facts and truth, but they will just shout "racist" or "sexist".

The proper parental response
"You are unwelcome in this house and to have any contact with us until you demonstrate maturity and an ability to live independently. Go away."

This is just total rubbish.

Goto a black hood in american cities, as a white person at night, and see how racist they are too you.

I do not think any one is telling those black people to deal with there hatred towards white people.

What hypocrites.....

Well, she sounds like a right twat.

THIS^^^^^^

What's wrong with being racist?

Nah, I view it as an opportunity to engage them, and plant seeds of common sense. I can hold my own logically and ethically in ANY such conversation. I know I would not convince them, but the goal is to role-model adult behavior, logical thinking, and the goodness of patriotic behavior.
