    I went to Sanibel in 1977. What a spectacular place that was. The super 8 my mom took on that vacation are being converted to digital as we speak. I’m hoping for any day now.

    As someone who has been called both those things I guess some are just more sensitive.

    The same could be said of the N word.

    So you are not being told you cannot say Merry Christmas you are upset others are not saying it.

    You are free to embrace your “heritage” and “culture”. You are not free to force it unto others.

    If only you felt that way about a variety of other nonsense the left pushes onto others.

    The left is consistently inconsistent.

    I am a pasty white “red neck” southerner with a heavy drawl — none of these words effect me in the slightest.

    You have been conditioned to accept racism towards you.

    Many white people have.

    Regardless if you are personally effected or not the intent of calling some one a cracker is no less racist than the N word.

    The simple fact I have to censor myself when saying one and not the other is indicative of societies double standards.

    A progressive liberal "red neck"? Not to question your veracity, but that claim seem like a bit of a non sequitur.

    Almost like people are fairly diverse.

    I don’t support everything progressives stand for but at least they do want to make change for broken systems. Republicans just want to do the opposite.

    Indeed it could — odd how similar Republicans are to those individuals

    You should get out more. Maybe try getting to know a better class of people.

    I try and avoid snowflakes and would hardly consider them a better class of people but I understand some are limited by their upbringing.

    Not true.

    Republicans want to fix broken systems, such as the border and the manner in which we accept immigration. The education system, etc.

    Progressives simply want to push racist policy disguised as anti racist policy.

    This actually shows that, no, right-wing spreaders of hate and lies are not unfairly censored or banned on social media, but that rules are applied fairly and universally to all.

    So what do those right-wing spreaders of hate and lies do?

    They spread more hate and lies about even this, trying to make it a narrative of "the left eating its own."
