Prager crushes grand lie of systemic racism: ‘So many obvious ways to prove how little racist this country is’
By: Robert Jonathon
This is a great article. There is no systematic or systemic racism in the United States. There are individuals in America of all races who are racist and much progress has been made in eliminating racism and discrimination. It’s time for Antifa, BLM, far left progressives who border on socialist to communist to stop their blood libeling of our great country that people of all races and religions try to come to from all over the world.

Contrary to what far-left protesters are proclaiming all across the country as they topple statues and burn flags, the U.S. is not a racist country. and to claim otherwise is comparable to a vicious anti-Semitic trope leveled at the Jews in the Middle Ages, Dennis Prager says.
America is faced with a binary choice, and liberals in particular need wake up to the far-left’s agenda before it’s too late, he provocatively added.
Author and talk show host Prager, the founder of Prager University, observed that despite the narrative pushed by the left, people from all over the world — including from Africa — want to come here to seek and achieve the American Dream.
He also called attention to the prevalence of hate-crime hoaxes, such as the Jussie Smollett incident or the recent NASCAR noose controversy , if actual racism is so rampant.
Prager provided his thoughts to Fox News host Jeanine Pirro last night on her show “ Justice with Judge Jeanine .”
“I wrote a piece a number of years ago that the greatest libel since the blood libel against the Jews in the Middle ages Ages where Jews were accused of using Christian kids’ blood to bake matzah for Passover…The second greatest blood libel that I am aware of on a national level is that the United States is a racist country. The reason it’s so serious is now seen in the streets. It’s seen in the lives of vast numbers of white and black and other kids in this country who believe this grand lie.
“There are so many obvious ways to prove how little racist this country is. Let me give you a quick review. First of all, there are so many race hoaxes…All of them turn out to be hoaxes…Why are there so many hoaxes if there is so much real racism? I’ll bet there wasn’t an anti-Semitic hoax in Germany in the 1930s. Do you think any Jew made up an anti-Semitic incident? Of course not — because there was so much real anti-Semitism.
“You make up stuff when the real stuff doesn’t exist,” he insisted.

Prager went on to highlight that two million sub-Saharan Africans who moved to the U.S. in the past 50 years and have prospered, becoming one of the most successful immigrant groups in America in the process.
“Why would black Africans move to a country that is racist? Are they stupid? Are they suicidal? They know better than the entire faculty at Yale how little racist America is and what a land of opportunity it is. I could go on and on but to just give you an idea. This is truly a non-racist country. There are racists in it, b ut that’s different. I am a Jew. There are anti-Semites in America, but America is the best country Jews have lived in, outside Israel, in their history.”
Pirro agreed that most Americans are unconnected with any racist philosophy or tradition.
Dennis Prager concluded his remarks with an ominous warning about a potential civil war and the existential threat posed by the left to stupified liberals and to free-speech-protecting conservatives which can only have one outcome.
“Either America survives the left or America defeats the left. I’m not talking liberals. Liberals are mostly weak and naive, but they are not leftists. This is one of the ways to solve our problem. Liberals need to recognize…their enemy is the left, not the right.
“We conservatives are protecting liberal values whereas the left is destroying liberal values like free speech, for example. The day the liberal wakes up from his stupor that his enemy is the conservative, not the left, that will be the solution…This is an existential battle.
“Either America survives and the left is defeated, or the left survives and America is defeated. It’s as simple as that. We are in a civil war; I pray it is not violent, although if it is, they have begun the violence. If you deny we are in a civil war, you’re having your head in the proverbial sand.”

Despite the fact that Prager said there are many ways to prove America is not racist, he gives only two arguments. Neither of them is at all convincing. How many race hoaxes are there? A handful? What kind of an idiot would think that the Jussie Smollet case proves there is no racism? As far as the Sub Saharans who have "prospered" here, who is he talking about? Cabdrivers? But let's concede some African immigrants have prospered here, does Prager understand that they may have prospered in spite of any racism they faced?
Immigrants of any color are usually highly motivated people who uprooted their lives to go halfway around the world trying to better themselves.
The seeded article is a waste of time, as is most of what Dennis Prager says.
It's only like a five-minute segment, you know.
Nice racist stereotype. Cab drivers? I'm amazed at the number of people who think they are on the side of minorities but tend to characterize them in stereotypical ways.
That's true for anyone, isn't it. We all face obstacles and we might prosper in spite of them. There are many possibilities in the world. What of it? Prager's point still stands: those immigrants understood that even if America or Americans might not be perfect, they were going to a better situation than the one they left. And when they got here they remained. They remained! Even after getting to know America, they stay. Why can't you acknowledge these simple facts?
Nothing he said or you said comes close to proving there is only a little racism.
So he used his two weakest arguments? Sure. Sure.
"Little" is relative, isn't it. Why don't you try considering all the alternatives, including America of the past and other countries of both yesterday and today. Also compare the reality with the constant barrage of accusations. If you did that with an open mind instead of a closed one obsessed with crapping on America, I think you'd reach a different conclusion.

This country and its people are not perfect, but I don't think we generally claim to be perfect. I think most Americans strive to always make America even better than it already is. We take pride in both the accomplishments of the past and in being part of the effort going forward. You can have that desire for self-improvement and still recognize that the USA is best of all available alternatives in the history of human civilization. The mission that some people have to demonize the USA is deeply idiotic.
The left tends to hate people like Prager. He has their big three strikes going against him:
1.). He’s conservative
2.). He’s religious
3.). He’s white ....
Strike three .... he’s out!
