@@clarksono1634 The term racism is casually and lazily tossed around without any thought, but merely to demonise and cancel an individual or individuals. The frequent use of the word racism, so often used by the ultra left wing members of the Democratic Party, has the intended and deliberate aim to take the high moral ground as well as cancel and abort any rational discussion. Too often in debate between two people with different viewpoints, the word racism is often used as a tactical weapon thrown against the other person to smear and label. Indeed, I would go further, by the constant use of the word racist by the left to denigrate an opponent with a different view, cheapens the word and renders it meaningless. The result? Rational discussion becomes impossible. Sadly, too many on the left of politics see and judge every issue through the prism of racism. The reason why so many Democratic Party members and politicians engage in such moral posturing is to ensure that they can rely on the non white vote.

@@ikarooz I’m against labelling anyone because it’s not just puerile, but is often designed to ‘smear’ and demonise an opponent. Labels allow us to paint others into a box where we can then apply our preconceived notions to them, hence pigeon hole them in a derogatory way. The moment when someone attaches to you to a philosophy or a movement, then they assign all the baggage and all the rest of the philosophy that goes with it to you. And when you want to have a conversation, they will assert that they already know everything important there is to know about you because of that association and that's not the way to have a conversation. Labeling is corrosive since any serious dialogue of ideas is rendered useless, and hence conversation can descend into a slanging match. Accusations of being “racist” may be false, but the mere accusation presents the public with the question of whether the accused may, indeed, be racist. The problem with an opponent calling them racist is that any civilised conversation becomes inflammatory, indeed, it’s like throwing petrol onto a fire. Furthermore, the one that has been labelled as racist has had his character tarnished and his credibility undermined as many people still follow the mantra: ‘there’s no smoke without fire.’ Sadly, all political discourse has become polarised and so like some kind of gladiatorial contest, the voters take sides and just like Ancient Rome, shouting takes place as the public cheer their hero. We now have TV stations that are either totally supportive of the Democratic Party, such as MSNBC and CNN, who are nothing more than echo chambers, as all the guests agree with other. They constantly verbally abuse members of the Republican Party. Likewise, Fox News presents the news with studios full of guests affirming their conservative views and denouncing and denigrating the democrats. Both political parties and their respective TV which support them, close their ears to any alternative viewpoints. This situation where everyone talks but no one listens means that we are heading for serious trouble.

That dapper president of the Academy who opened the show, Charles Brackett, was the screen writer for Sunset Boulevard. When Gloria Swanson compared him to Director Billy Wilder, she said Brackett was "the refined one". Indeed. He looks like he could have worked on the set of some 1920's era silent film about "the swells" having a party at a mansion. Brackett, from a Mayflower WASP family and Billy Wilder, an Austrian Jewish immigrant from modest means. Now that's a Hollywood Odd Couple.
