I also don't understand why according to the chart a non white person who doesn't like him is an Uncle Tom but a non white person who liked him but doesn't like him anymore, or who likes him but isn't voting for him, is racist.

because its more idiotic than it is racist (and its p racist)

yeah, plus the chart pretty much ignores the fact that there has been a lot of genuine racism, both blatant and thinly veiled, in the criticism of Obama.
― Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 3 March 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link
It doesn't take a genius to figure out the bitter brew of fear, ignorance and anger that generates such stuff. Somewhere in that person's mind is the idea that white racism has been used as a cudgel to beat him with, unfairly, and the twin sources of that beating (blacks and liberals) are personified in Obama, who now stands at the apex of his white oppression.
I still live in hope that some day Americans will figure out how class operates.

Rosanna Pulido is our local Mexican Uncle Tom. She is of Mexican descent and she was the director of the Illinois Minutemen. She has said some pretty racist and outrageous stuff about "illegals" (and about Muslims and others).

Such as: I lived in Mexico for a year as a missionary. I was ripped off the worst by the Bible students. It is so cultural to rip people off they do not see that it is wrong. It’s culture. and The TRUTH is, Obama will legalize 12-20 million ILLEGAL ALIENS, and THUS SELL THE BLACKS, His own Race BACK into slavery!
The Illegals coming over pretty much hate African Americans.
He is going to unleash REAL racism upon his own people as they fight for jobs with the illegal aliens.
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Saturday, 3 March 2012 20:02 (twelve years ago) link
Well the whole point of the chart is to downplay or deny completely actual racism in criticism of Obama and to claim the accusation of racism is just used to deflect/dismiss all criticism of him. But within that guideline I still don't get its "logic"-I know, there's no sense in trying. I suppose non white people who don't like Obama are largely besides the point of the chart, thus little effort has been directed towards their place in it.

Good for a laugh!A professor at Auburn University was giving a lecture on Paranormal Studies.
To get a feel for his audience, he asks, 'How many people here believe in ghosts?'
About 90 students raise their hands.
Well, that's a good start. Out of those who believe in ghosts, do any of you think you have seen a ghost?'
About 40 students raise their hands.
That's really good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?'
About 15 students raise their hand.
Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?'
Three students raise their hands.
That's fantastic. Now let me ask you one question further...Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?'
Way in the back, Ahmed raises his hand.
The professor takes off his glasses and says 'Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to have made love to a ghost. You've got to come up here and tell us about your experience.'
The Middle Eastern muslim student replied with a nod and a grin, and began to make his way up to the podium.
When he reached the front of the room, the professor asks, 'So, Ahmed, tell us what it's like to have sex with a ghost?'
Ahmed replied, "Shit, from way back there I thought you said Goats."
dear grandma,
even though we're not muslim, you shouldn't forward this around.

this lady moved to america from iran in the sixties to do graduate work in psychology, studied at BYU, university of minnesota and university of madison wisconsin, where she had roommates who had never met a jew and actually thought jewish people had horns. then she moved to san diego where she did family therapy for sailors and marines.
50 years later and she's a fully assimilated redneck. gotta love america!
