Why are Conservatives so disturbingly obsessed with race?

“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people,” former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman told Harper’s writer Dan Baum for the April cover story published Tuesday.

“You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities,” Ehrlichman said. “We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

Oh looky! A Little Piggy flexed on himself! 🤣🤡

One of your lazy radicalized democrat mouthpiece ‘s made it about race. Why would he even add the person’s race? What difference does it make?

The funny thing is the moron, live on air, called him a “White” male just as they’re showing a “Black” male on the screen!

Did I see a flicker of disappointment on Jake’s face? It just doesn’t fit the narrative you’ve cultivated…just like this thread! 🤣
