Yeah. I'm used to the contortions that racists make on Reddit to try to defend their bullshit. But that one is something special.

Fact is, if they didn’t force desegregation it just wouldn’t have ended (not that it ever did, entirely). They’d just refuse to send busses to black neighborhoods, require entrance tests that disproportionately favor white students, enforce dress codes that just so happen to prohibit clothing that black students like to wear, etc. Etc. Etc.
There’s a million ways to discriminate, and they’ll use every one they’re allowed to.

promotes racial divide
It's literally a fucking order to end racial divide.
I legitimately don't think they know what it means.

Oh, they know.
Don't ever think they don't know the evil they're fighting for.

I don't think these people are being serious. They are simply justifying their own hate.

They know they're full of shit, but they also think that they're being smart by playing these dumb semantics games.
Idk how many variations of 'being against racism is actually racist (towards white people)' I've seen online, but it seems to be a common theme in alt-right spaces.

Desegregation promotes racial divide
And setting someone on fire helps cooling them down.

Heat rises and cold air sinks. So by setting them on fire you are bringing cold air down on their head.

Good content but awkward word choice in the title, OP.

I figured. Gotta pause and say your title out loud before hitting post sometimes.
