LOL!ROFLOL

And to the OP, atheists can be economically conservitive, I call them Ayn Rand atheists and I have no use for any "let them eat cake" "screw you I got mine" mentality. FYI Paul Ryan said Ayn Rand was one of his inlfluences. So Republicans don't hate atheists as long as they keep their mouths shut and support Corporate welfare. They'll take a silent uncle Tom as long as GE and Exxon don't have to pay taxes.
"They'll take a silent uncle Tom".......what a racist you are....that's not very tolerant, especially from someone who claims to belong to the party of tolerance and racial inclusion....hmmmm, I see...you leftists are tolerant of Black people as long as they agree with you and do what they're told...but if they disagree with you, your true racist nature surfaces and you call them Uncle Toms....

"He didn't even mention black people in his post"....He didn't have to mention black people in his post because "Uncle Tom" is a derogatory and racist slur that largely references blacks who are accused of being too friendly with "The White Man"...

"Talk about stirring the racism pot."....No. It's you on the left who are obsessed with stirring the racial pot against anyone who disagrees with Barack...any criticism or any challenge of your messiah's policies is met with shrill accusations of being racists and nazis...any disagreement with the left is met with the same shrill name calling, the left's only defense when challenged....

Yeah, because blacks tend to agree with you and do what they're told anyway, right mr. cross-burner?

Funny talk coming from a guy who generalizes liberals as "leftist commies".
Hypocrite-much?

And way to cherry pick. Here is the second definition from Merriam-Webster. I even used the same link you provided:

2 : a member of a low-status group who is overly subservient to or cooperative with authority

Because, clearly the first definition is the only definition. Ever. Period.

Let's complete what you omitted:

For the Free Dictionary one, it's pretty much a reiteration of the same.
Quote:n. Offensive
A Black person who is regarded as being humiliatingly subservient or deferential to white people.

For the Merriam Webster One, you omitted a general case:
Quote:2: a member of a low-status group who is overly subservient to or cooperative with authority

For the Urban Dictionary, wow. You really loved to go cherry picking! Let's look at the numbers!

Urban Dictionary Wrote:1. Uncle Tom 1134 up, 584 down

Theatrical productions of Uncle Tom's Cabin played throughout the nadir (post Civil War and Reconstruction); but since the novel's indictment of slavery was no longer congenial to an increasingly white society, rewrites changed Uncle Tom from a martyr who gave his life to protect the people into a sentimental dope who was loyal to kindly masters. In the black community, [Uncle Tom eventually came to mean an African American who sells out his people's interests and still does today. In my opinion the phrase "uncle tom" should not be used today by black people because it degrades the status of a man who wasn't in fact a sell out but a hero who's name should be used with reverence not disgrace.

So, inside a black community:
Let environment E {'community'=>black}.

An African American (Black):
Let man E {'race'=>'black}

Who sells out his people's (Black) interests:
interests E yield(man.knowlege_of_collective_interests)
man.work_with badguy << interests

Yeah, it looks pretty clear -- the system involved doesn't consider other races -- only the act of working against one stated race.



Urban dictionary Wrote:2. uncle tom 1067 up, 572 down

the real uncle tom was a black man born into slavery who gave his life to protect other slaves. when his story was turned into a movie, the writers re-worked the script making uncle tom's character the opposite; a slave who was loyal to his master. unfortunately, this has become the most commonly known image of uncle tom. because of the film, the term "uncle tom" has become synonomous with "sellout", degrading the real uncle tom. so once again, the white man has successfully managed to teach blacks an incorrect, caucasion-favoring version of history.

This definition states a historical context and a similar meaning term. While the ending sentence appears to ascribe goals to an entire race, which is rather ridiculous, there is some accuracy in knowing that some white men financed, created and saw through the film that characterized "Uncle Tom" we know of today. A better phrase would be: "so once again, some white men have successfully managed to teach blacks an incorrect, caucasion-favoring version of history"

Given the perceived appearance of changing the character from heroic to servile, it is understandable that the better phrase is true, as in all likelihood that the movie was made with support of wealthier people. At that time frame, they were probably white (though not completely assured, all things considered).

These last two go into A Theist's posted Urban Dictionary-entry category -- focusing on the specifics of one race in relation to another.
Urban dictionary Wrote:3. Uncle Tom 2573 up, 1505 down

A black man who will do anything to stay in good standing with "the white man" including betray his own people

4. Uncle Tom 3026 up, 1863 down
Uncle Tom is a term used by black people to try to convince other black people that working, education, living well, and setting a good example for their children is selling out.

I've fucking exhausted myself parsing through UD to bother pawing through "White Man" UD entries. Chances are they're not good.

Let's look at it -- at least the "other entries" that might be linked to it, thus setting our expectations:
Quote:see also:
white
cracker
nigger
honky
black man

Looking at white, it is the lone word in the selected group above to be not racially charged definitions within the first two entries.

The rest, of course, are at least as vile as A Theist's definition for the white man.

Boy, you must feel proud of yourself for stripping away significant context, adds in "white man" for little reason (no such term chaining is shown in the preceding two examples) to whip back a race card.
