Now, just curious, is all of that evidence in the quotes supposed to help your case or hurt it, DJ?

It's sad when people feign denseness just to keep a debate going.

Not quite as sad as when people are unintentionally dense.

Involving race in any way shape or form =/= racism

Out of that list, I could only see myself calling the Pocahontas comment racist.

Here's an article for the Pocahontas comment:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...en-pocahontas/

TL;DR: Warren has absolutely no proof of her Native American background and Trump is bringing that fact up because let's be honest, he's a tool and that's what politicians do.

I'm with DJ on this one, although I try to differentiate since bigot covers more things than just racism.

I think people who really worry about racism should be the ones most worried about making the term so vague that it loses all meaning.
