May I just say that Trump supporters on this site are living stereotype of how an average Trump supporter is thinking. 

 

The people here who we have seen make frequent misogynistic, xenophobic and racist comments are the ones who are supporting Trump. Coincidence? Lol

People think just cause you change a word you can change the meaning .. well guess what eveyone thinks the same damn thing when they see someone acting the fool.

For God's sake... it's not that he used he word "thug", is that he probably only used it because he was black.

You barely hear people using the word "thug" to describe a problematic white person. It's always to describe a person of color.

Why is everyone in the US discussing about what's racist and what's not eeeeeeeeeeveryday. 

There are a lot of white people and a many black and hispanic people, you live together in the same country. and that's not going to change  I mean, there's a lot of diversity there, much more than in Europe, so if you grow up surrounded by people of other races since you're little, why isn't it normal living in peace once you become adults?

This thread gave me anxiety.

Why these things still have to be a big issue. Get over it.

It's a paradox isn't it?  

On one part me growing up in a diverse area probably influenced me to reject racism YET at the same time diversity itself can bring on a new wave of racism. 

Also important to note is the disgusting history of racial tensions in the US whose consequences are still felt today.

But thats not what it actually means. Trump was big with black rights in the 90's. He fought with Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton

Come on, how is it racist that he called a person a thug? He has many black supporters and his spokesperson is black, his best friend Ben Carson is black. The fact that this is even considered racist just blows my mind away. Read the full sentence it isnt racist at all.

His best friend is Ben Carson? 

Youre litterally posting as a caricature of a racist that doesn't realize they're racist

Trump thinks all black people live in the "ghetto". 

 

Right, they all live on one street in Chicago

I ran out of likes to give. 

I can't believe people don't see how tge word Thug has a negative connotation in America...

Try coming to Oakland & "calling a problematic person" a thug and see how that turns out.

People still will be dumb and vote for Trump.

Yikes, everyone knows that "thug" is just the white people codeword for "n****r".

I think it's so silly that people think that. I'm white and I live in a neighbor hood with plenty of thugs - that are white. Look up the definition of thug. People saying thug is racist is like people saying feminism is anti-men. Just because some people may be oversensative doesn't mean we can change the English language

The local radio announcer was talking about some "thugs" here who got drunk and assaulted some people, and guess what? We don't even have black people where I live. 

The term isn't racist, deal with it.

What about people visiting? 🤔

And you think it's just going to be over like that?

I wish people would continue to stay as involved in politics AFTER the election as they do before.
