Until they understand the bigger social picture a lot better than they do now, they will maintain the same racist views.

That's just they way the human mind works. Their social values have changed very little since 1860.

The only way the flaggers can feel superior in any way, shape or form is to pick a minority or two and pretend, PRETEND, to be superior to them. There is no milk of human kindness left in them. I don't hate them, I feel sorry for all that they are missing by not associating with all people.

The "us vs them" syndrome discussed in this video goes back to the very first living cells on earth. It is a primal instinct that affects us all, but even more so with the Southern dolts who have yet to grow the fuck up.
