No but you can label him a nazi right? Learn to read more slowly.
Hey, you are FREE to consider someone to be stupid, smart, ignorant, or BRAINWASHED. Someone in here, he was one of your ilk, once told me I should move out of massachusetts if I thought it sucked so much. They lectured me that I should defend Massachusetts because it was my state. You people really are birds of a feather.

Comical.

I'm a catholic, I criticize the catholic church all of the time, does that make me a racist toward catholics? So a black man calling another black man brainwashed is racist? No, you labeled the pope a Nazi. Don't hide from it. You're free to feel that way.
I said you and your ilk, meaning people like you.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897
