“While we write and print millions of words about race in America, why is it still so hard to have a truly respectful, decent, and humble dialogue about perhaps the most complicated and contentious issue in American life?” asks David French in his Dispatch article “American Racism: We’ve Got So Very Far to Go.” Yet he does not mention in his story of personal change the elephant in the room: the Black Lives Matter movement’s radical cultural hegemony.
Establishment Republicans made the same mistake by ignoring the movement’s radical premise: that at its core, America is rotten and systemically racist,

You're missing the point. Commucrats and RINOs are the ones who usually call for some kind of "National Dialog" as a means of drawing foolish conservatives out into the open where they can be attacked and crushed. Don't take the bait. There can be no "National Dialog" about pretty much anything.

The pushback against being fired for offending members of the 'cancel culture' for some perceived slight-du-jour may not make much headway until we both find the money trail for the criminal enterprise that is BLM/Antifa and strengthen employment laws. It should be illegal to be fired for exercising one's free speech including wearing 'blackface' if such behavior does not take place at work.

I'll admit I fear getting fired. I don't wear blackface or call anyone a derogatory name, but I believe everyone matters no matter who they are or what race they are. This is enough to brand me a hater since I work at a university.

We can’t have ‘National Dialogues’ because one side has discovered that it's an unbelievably successful perpetual scam, and the other side is the sucker that keeps falling for it and doesn't have the strategy to repel the unjustified attacks and undo the "cancel culture" damage with legal recourse. In that regard, any person or company that initiates, contributes to, or effects the firing of a person from one's job or harassment and threats in their home should be legally liable for damages. THAT should be a hate crime, if there ever was such a thing.

The time for "dialog" is long past. The lines are drawn. It's time for courageous action.

BLM is just the scab covering the Communist party underneath. Look at the large picture at the top of the article: out of control white Idiot Children, mostly screaming females. I see only one bLACK face in the back.
Communism is now called Social Justice and it need to be nipped now.

In today's America, couldn't "dialogue" be defined as "two monologues"?

The definition of dialogue to a democrat means we listen and agree and by no means do we ever mention anything that opposes their core beliefs. How do you even begin to discuss anything with someone so entrenched in their ideology. They are as rabid and closed minded as it gets. When you shout down and try and shut up differing opinions, there is no dialogue. It’s like trying to talk sense to a screaming toddler. The only option we have now is their complete defeat. We go to the polls in massive numbers on November 3rd and soundly reject every single one of them. What they are planning for this country should they win, God forbid, is anarchy, tyranny, misery, and economic collapse. We will be destroyed so quickly it will make Venezuela look like it made a slow walk to communism. It will be complete and overnight. Democrats have no intention of having a dialogue. They will put the hammer down and every Trump supporter will be a target. It will be a totalitarian society, culture, and government. Where is the coming together with a party who has this mindset? I’m am not exaggerating either. We all know what is coming if they win in November. Let’s be clear. We Patriots, are the only thing standing between this country and totalitarian rule by a godless, violent, and cruel party that condones the mayhem we have witnessed these past few months. Do you honestly believe they will not seek revenge?
Many wishy washy Republicans can’t wrap their brains around the fact that there are fellow citizens who are ready, willing and able to fundamentally change this country. They are asleep to the danger that is upon us. For the sake of the Republic, they must wake up from their comfortable little daydream and realize we are in the fight of our lives. The enemy within will destroy us if we are not prepared to fight for this country and everything it stands for. The only dialogue that will make a difference is the conversation that occurs after they are roundly defeated at the ballot box. Anything else is naive pie in the sky foolishness. This is the election to end all elections. We must win and win big! Just like in the Revolutionary War it is going to be average men and women who win the fight for freedom from tyranny. Now more than ever, Trump 2020 and every “R” down ballot. After a win, God willing, on November 4th, then we can begin a dialogue. Until then, this election is going to be the most important one in the history of this country. It is all on the line and we must be victorious! We can restore this country to greatness, it’s just going to be done without the philosophy of the democrat party. They have to be defeated. Period.

From first hand negative experience working for the Fed Govt. The PC crap has been used to 'get back' at co-workers for imagined aggression's. The accuser is assumed to be right, the accused wrong...end of case.
That is total BS and everyone knows it. Now the slackers that don't do any real work use this scam to cover their incompetence and management is agreeing to it every time it's used. I've even seen anonymous accusers file false charges against others, it happened to me, and they nor I can 'face our accuser'...if anything is said then it's retribution. No proof is needed, only the word of a fake accuser! The entire workplace has turned in to a Schifft Hole!

It's the sixties all over again. but this time, the hippies are wearing black suits and armor. They have no dreams of brotherhood and love but their demands for Justice! are driven by a godless nihilism that seeks to destroy all that failed to provide them with purpose and direction. Their hatred is borne by self-loathing and conviction. They are not interested in a "dialogue".

I wish I could hit the "like" button a hundred times for Rinktum's post. It is exactly right. The only way we can turn this radical stampede out to destroy our beloved nation is to totally annihilate this philosophy at the ballot box. And it will be the fight of everyday Americans. Trump is only one guy and he has been holding back the forces of evil by himself. He cannot do this on his own. He needs us, the Citizens brigade. We will be up against staggering voter fraud; possibly harassment at the election polls; and a re-emerging or new virus forcing many to stay away from the polls.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is 1776 all over again. But this time the enemy is our own countrymen.

The Left does not actually want any sort of a dialog. They want a monolog - an endless, screaming, spittle flying, Molotov cocktail tossing rant of their leftist hate, and you guys all shut the hell up!
And if you disagree with them, they will try to get you fired.
They don't want this "national dialog", not at all.

the First Amendment has been completely lost. At first the internet was promoted to the a place where every view could be heard, now its the opposite so I don't post my views. Its a darn good thing they can't yet read my mind and know what I'm actually thinking about all this.

The problem with conservatives is that they assume those on the LEFT want dialog and compromise. They do not. It is impossible to come to a meeting of the minds in such a circumstance.

The "cancel culture" was already well developed in Left Land long before social media became popular. I did seven years hard time at my county's Socialist Services thirteen years ago. I spoke the truth at a diversity training for a multi-county committee that I helped start for other analysts working the same program in their counties. I talked last and spoke of the strides made since the 1960's and received a hearty round of applause from my fellow members. The next day my supervisor called me in and gave me a BS excuse that I was too valuable in the office to spend the day driving to Sacramento for this once-a-month meeting. Then other meetings were one-by-one cut from my duties and I was no longer able to call certain people directly without my supervisors' approval. Other restrictions were slowly added, all due to my "value" so no hostile workplace complaints could be made. These people smile and hug you while sticking the knife in your back. One day I went to lunch and never went back.
Give no quarter to this enemy. Never "dialogue". Never accept their premise. Speak the truth boldly and plainly. You will not get through to the useful idiot, but you never know who is listening.
