Markos Moulitsas says, F… it!
Markos has gotten himself in somewhat of a pickle with Blacks who frequent and contribute to his website, Daily Kos.
However frustrated he may be, I would suggest he not throw his baby out with the bath water thereby throwing a whole lot of hard work and financial resources down the drain.
I would suggest Markos consider and really reflect how difficult it is dealing with racism in America. I suggest having a dinner party to discuss it. And at that time, I would suggest discussing with his various guest to take a look-see at nefarious behaviors of persons perpetuating racism on his website.
Racist always want to have hidden hands and by doing so, they can write post pretending they are Black or in the cases of I/P situations, pretending “…..their parents or grand-parents were Holocaust survivors.” and thus proceed to spew racism most vile. I see this happening a lot with people calling themselves or being labeled TeaBaggers by the press. In America, if it is not Black racism it is Jewish Anti-Semitism.
Marcos has been placed in a position he can not reveal all he knows regarding the persons he has banned from his site for fear of law suites. It is a difficult situation but to call it racism on the part of Marcos I can not go along with.
Confronting American racism is a difficult task and I can say in all honesty, I am glad I am not Markos. I wish him luck! I hope he has enough sincere and genuine friends to invite to his dinner party. He should do everything he can to save his baby DKos. If he feels he can do it without further contributions of Blacks, so be it.
As always,
BB
