Revisiting "The Hate Project" which aired on 11/12/2012. This episode features two long phone conversations. The first is with Dragon1488, the resident klansman. He demonstrates a very insightful understanding of racism and the honest mentality of white people, but still can't help reverting to being racist. Then his friend EdClanofChattan calls in, gives revisionist version of slavery, and he also shares how he began to come to his white supremacist worldview from a comment made by his father. The klansman talks about his wife, and how he would quit the klan if she wanted him to. I play some clips from Tucker Carlson tonight which mirror some themes from these phone calls. Both maintain a veneer of intellectual discussion, but then slip into raw hatred. Enjoy.
