It Is Now "Blatant Racism" To Wear Red, White, And Blue

In today’s hypersensitive bizarro environment, where people are quite literally having mental breakdowns following the election of President Donald Trump, everything that used to be normal appears to now elicit howls of racism, xenophobia and sexism.

In the latest example we turn to Iowa, where students from Valley High School attended a basketball game in traditional red, white and blue attire they reportedly wear to big games. One would think that showing support for their team wearing the colors of the U.S. flag wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow, but you’d be wrong.

First, for some context, here is a picture of the offensive clothing worn by Valley High School fans at the game:

At first glance it certainly doesn’t look like these folks are engaging in any racist activity, but then, what do we know?

“This is an example of BLATANT racism,” said Ty Leggett, a Valley High School alum, on the Valley High School – WDMCSFacebook page. “ALL participating should have been pulled and banned from ALL VHS extracurricular events for the remainder of the year! As a parent, I’d be mortified that my son or daughter thought this way, acted in this fashion and refrained from taking a stand against this 21st century inexcusable behavior!”

Erin Ness Carter, a mother living in the Iowan district, remarked that “for the supporters of one team from a primarily white part of town to paint themselves as the ‘team of the USA’ it strongly implies that the other team, the less white team, is less American.”

That shows nationalism and that is totally against the new world order agenda! Just by being born white now automatically makes you a racist. War is coming and needs to happen to address these problems. Multiculturalism does not work. Canada is a good example of this. Ethnic groups will never every get along if we are separate and not nationalistic.
