defending bigotry isn't progress, and outright lying in the face of obvious bigotry isn't doing yourself - or anyone - any favors.

"don't believe your lying eyes" is a line that only works on the most stupid and gullible, and you're not going to get very far by telling your audience they're too stupid to know better.

oh, and if you think that defending bigotry is "contributing something meaningful," think again.

perhaps you should ask yourself: why do you like bigotry so much that you must dedicate so much time and effort and space to defending it? what sort of person does that make you?

"don't believe your lying eyes"

we covered that lie already. know any other tunes?

how about explaining why you so enthusiastically defend bigotry?
