You don't do a drug intervention when the guy is whole heartily agree!!!

[successandvictory]

Especially when most folks don't know why they hate. Miserable folks don't need a reason to hate.

I was a “neo-Nazi” for like 2 years when I was a I was just lonely and felt inferior. So instead of facing my own personal issues I went stupid and scapegoated other groups of people.

[LindaCasey]

He's right about having the conversation .. education is the key. You can't fight hatred with hatred anywhere in the world and expect a healing outcome in return. 🌹

[earlollsen]

Theres only two that can defeat hate. It's acceptance or termination. It's either you accept it fully or immediately terminate that hate so it will not grow on you

[werter]

nothing on Brown supremacist ? Worst of all three.

[Leonaza]

He’s the true definition that Hate and racism are taught. This man gives me so much hope.

[Mike-yeqv]

One point that should be pointed out that America is the least racist country in the world

Hate hurts Everyone, ; including the haters.

[twilightgardenspresentatio]

I’ve tried to talk, they insult me and degrade my humanity. How do you become one with someone who hates you more than they hate themselves?

When do you think Epstein plane will land in Tel Aviv and what will he be eating for dinner ?

[kyronlewis]

Honestly... sometimes I feel ashamed of the U.S. for one the land was taken from the natives

[OnTheFritz]

This guy is an extremely rare example. If he's for real, I applaud him.

[DaisyPusher]

I feel like most people dont feel empathy anymore... its really sad....

[KeepingIt-fmlj]

My opinion the more we get out of our comfort zone. And stop being so tribal. The better we can understand one another. That's trump problem he is so ignorant about other races.

[intercat]

Please don't be cruel to this man. What he's doing is a whole lot harder than being a jerk. And it's a whole lot harder than doing the right thing the first time around. Those of us who were raised to be decent people are lucky, but we don't get to use "luck" in place of "superior". We the People are so darned decent, I think we have room for this poor tired recovering hater. We the People are pretty awesome and if he is very very lucky, he can spend his life trying to be one of us. Bless America.

Is this a bad time to bring up my crush on Tulsi Gabbard??

[Leonaza]

This man brought so much light. We all have to sit down and have these conversations. Racism is all about fear of losing their white identity and feeling inferior because other races are slowly taking over our society. But we must show them that in the end we’re all equal. We’re all Americans.

[AlabasterSmudge]

It’s ok to be White but don’t tell that to Rosanna Arquette.
