O'Reilly: Asians are "industrious & hardworking"
« on: January 04, 2013, 11:38:39 am »

Bill O'Reilly, seen here being mystified by the moon and tides, is once again in hot water for his antiquated racial commentary. During a Thursday discussion about Asian-Americans voting Democrat, O'Reilly declared that "Asian people are not liberal, you know, by nature. They’re usually more industrious and hard-working." Well, at least he didn't comment on their driving or superior math skills.

Oh....dear god.

Ironbite-also since when has being a liberal meant you're not hard-working?

Oh that's a standard conservative meme. Liberals just sponge off of conservative taxpayers/producers/job creators and collect welfare all day.

O'Reily clearly hasn't seen the 'socialist red state' stuff.
The material needs a defender more than the spiritual. If there is a higher power, it can defend itself from the material. Thus denotes 'higher power'.

Socialist red state, heh...

Actually, you can explain O'Reilly being a douche, he's a jackass who's scared of the fact that whites no longer make up the racial majority of this country.

Then what about the Communist party in China? Though to be fair, I'm not bringing up Japanese, Koreans, etc.

Also, I've mentioned elsewhere my dad was offered money to run advertisements on his website for the Republicans during the election last year. That got them his vote, though the rest of the family who could vote voted for Obama anyways (2 to 1), but thankfully nobody holds any ill will towards each other afterwards. I only bring this up since we're Asian.

On the subject of politics I find Asians inscrutable.
I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.

I actually find his bigotry against political opponents more offensive than his racist stereotypes.

The party's name is the Democratic Party. It has been since 1830. Please spell correctly.

It is quite simple, his definition of "liberal" is basically a list of all the negative things he can think of. So not only does that mean that every single person/organisation/whatever that does something negative is liberal (like the Westboro babtist church) it also mean that since he believes that all asians are hardworking (stereotypes for the win) it means that he cannot accept that they would be liberal since that would mean hardworking liberals.

If you have spend years convincing yourself and others that liberals are bad in all possible ways it would be contradictive to admit that a liberal might have some positive aspects as well.

Remember that the world is black and white white with no grey areas.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

And in O Rileys case it's literally true in terms of race (I dont think he's actually color blind although that would explain his world view)
