That anyone can be subject to, or perpetrator of, racism.

If you discriminate against someone based on their ethnicity or skin colour then that's racism.

Opinion I have that is frequently laughed at: Electric cars do not save the planet.
My reasoning: You're still using electricity, probably from a fossil fuel-gobbling power plant, not to mention the funky minerals and such for the high-tech batteries, etc. Unless your car runs on its own solar panels, no.

Thinking that it's okay to sing Christmas carols when it is nowhere near Christmas- those songs have sometimes lasted for hundreds of years, because they're great tunes. And it's okay to enjoy a song you like anytime you want.

That indigenous populations have been brutalised the world over by colonists. Whilst we understand that the present generation of descendants of those colonists did not do the brutalising, they have to admit, of sheer historical fact, that the descendants of the indigenous populations find themselves cordonned off in "Reservations" or "bantustans" or "west banks" etc., and as a result cannot fully participate in the economy of the colonial nation-state. The result is that even though no direct violence is targeted (debatable, e.g. George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Flint Michigan, etc), the current descendants of colonisers BENEFIT from having been coincidentally born white, and the descendants of indigenous tribes are oppressed coincidentally having been born into that group. So, my hot take is GIVE THEIR LAND BACK.

I have few ideas of how it could realistically happen, but America needs to split up. Yeah, yeah, all that old rhetoric about a nation divided, but Conservatives and Liberals have two vastly different understandings of reality at this point. If Christo-fascists want to live in a country governed by the bible, let 'em have it. I want to see them live the reality they claim they want. So let the South rise again! Or let Texas secede. Let them establish Trumpistania or the Jesus States of America there. They can even build a wall around it. As long as they leave the rest of us alone and keep their religion to themselves.

The word 'religion' and 'faith' do not mean 'Christianity', and atheists need to understand that most, in my experience. Some of us are Pagan. Some of us are Muslim. Some of us are Jewish. And you're just another kind of proselytizing Christian if you're an Atheist that says stuff like 'all religions are dumb' when you've only ever known Christianity because you're an ex-Christian, and so you think that's what 'religion' is. Like do you hear yourself? It's two sides of the same Christianity-centric coin. Take a religion class. Heck, take a folklore class. Dismantle your cultural Christianity before you hurt somebody.

I live in Washington State, about 100 miles from the Canadian border, in a rural community. So, as you can probably guess, I believe in the existence of Sasquatch. Never had the privilege of seeing one, despite hiking for miles in very remote areas, but I've met people who claim to have seen one.

A group that isn't really a race can experience racism if the people targeting them think they are a race. For example, Islam is a religion, not a race, but some racist idiots hate Muslims and also think they are a race, so it can be argued that their Islamophobia is a form of racism.

That wine connoisseurs are alcoholics. Whilst they look down on 'alkies' they themselves usually start having a glass of wine with dinner. This progresses to one whilst waiting for dinner and another one whilst relaxing afterwards. This happens ever day - except for additional wine at 'Wine tasting Weekends' The wine gets stronger and the glasses larger until they drink three large glasses of wine before, with and after dinner ever day. This is a full bottle of strong wine, the equivalent of a half bottle of spirits within an hour every single day. They still look down on 'alkies' as they have taste, they have a hobby. They are alcoholics although it could be called 'Genteel Alcoholism' Their liver will be just as bad as those drinking a half bottle of vodka every day..

"Man being born, as has been proved, with a title to perfect freedom, and an uncontrouled enjoyment of all the rights and privileges of the law of nature, equally with any other man, or number of men in the world, hath by nature a power, not only to preserve his property, that is, his life, liberty and estate, against the injuries and attempts of other men"
-John Locke Section 87, Of Political or Civil Society, "The Second Treatise of Government"

"every man has a property in his own person: this no body has any right to but himself. The labour of his body, and the work of his hands, we may say, are properly his. Whatsoever then he removes out of the state that nature hath provided, and left it in, he hath mixed his labour with, and joined to it something that is his own, and thereby makes it his property."
-John Locke, "The Second Treatise of Government", Chapter 5 Section 27.

"Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain."
-Frederic Bastiat, "The Law"

"As every individual, therefore, endeavours as much as he can both to employ his capital in the support of domestic industry, and so to direct that industry that its produce may be of the greatest value; every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it. By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry, he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was no part of it. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it."
-Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations

"There's no such thing as free lunch"
-Milton Friedman

""Government...is but a necessary evil..."
-Thomas Paine"

""If socialists understood economics, they wouldn't be socialists"
-Friedrich Hayek

All of these quotes are under attack by progressives and self-described socialists these days.
