@Justin:
“he has made it clear in no uncertain terms that he despises America”
Actually, he’s criticized America, but the only uncertain terms he’s said is that he loves America. Check out the Bill Moyers interview to be crystal clear.
“given the way he talks he implies that Black people do not have any rights at all in America”
Talking about the modern incarnation of racism isn’t to say blacks don’t have rights in today’s society, only that there still exist discrepancies in the ideal of equality for all.
“Because he is an utter loon who pretends that slavery just ended last week and black people are being lynched daily with the full blessings of the USA government and white people everywhere”
If you could find that quote I would give you that point, but until then I think you’re misrepresenting Wright’s position, which while still extreme, isn’t as patently absurd as that statement.
