JMO, but I'd consider any President that actually owned slaves as more racist. Something like that, you can't really "adjust for the times".

Back to Jussie Smollett, if he did indeed stage this hoax, then the crime was obviously racially motivated on his part. He originally identified his assailants as white. He obviously did so to play on racial tensions. How would that not be a hate crime? He played upon people's prejudices. The narrative that black people, or any other culture, can't be racist and bigoted needs to end. It's not limited to white people. People of any color are capable of perpetrating heinous crimes based on perceived differences.

John Wayne is trending on twitter because of an interview he did for Playboy IN 1971!! 1971!!! People are offended because of a ****ing interview given in 1971. Every time I think people have reached their max capacity for saying, thinking or being offended over nothing that has no impact on their life they go and pull this.

Correct me if wrong, but didn't you basically claim Trump was the most racist President ever? People were citing examples you were wrong, not that you'll ever admit it.

I don't think I said he is the most racist ever, but he's certainly the biggest in my lifetime. (Eisenhower on). Now I have said he's the biggest liar ever, the most despicable ever and the most amoral ever.
I'm viewing racism within the context of their particular time frame. Trump is more racist than 79% of the American public. No other president in my life time, or possibly ever, would be more racist than that high of a percentage of the population of the time.

What about Andrew Jackson intentionally giving the Cherokee small pox infested blankets before forcing them on the Trail of Tears? Where does that rank on your grand continuum?

He's already inferred Jackson was on a similar level with Trump.

That sounds very Trumpish. And to think Jackson was more racist than only 59% of the people of his time.

Has he weighed in on FDR and the Japanese internment camps?

You have to understand Luthers rationaly broken worldview when it comes to morality. He claims that morality is strictly defined by society. So, racism wasn't immoral when it was socially accepted.

Yet, in a plain contradiction to the above, society (as the singular standard by which morality is judged) is also (somehow) improving (how does the standard improve, and by what nonexistant standard?). So, LBJ was a racist, but we can only judge his morality against the acceptance of his time, so he's not as immoral as Trump. Yet the standard (society) has improved enough to recognize that racism is always wrong, so we can judge Trump as horrible for his supposed racism.

Clear as mud and about as rationally consistent as claiming that the number blue smells solid.

Jussie Smollet happens when the demand for racism in the USA is more than the supply.
