No you are not. It can seem that way on many fronts.

The largest problem with any conspiracy is that it will always remain so long as we give voice to it.
What does it matter if a person is gay, or of different race, or even religion, except that someone will always have a need to point out that something is wrong with, or against the rights of that sect.
So long as another is afraid of what another might say or do, then fear will always rule the minds idea and ultimate response.
We live in a world now where others have a right to believe as they will, and so long as that belief is not forced on another, or used to deny or disparage anothers prospect of liberty, and self development, then they have the right to believe or think as they wish.
Only when we use our belief to punish or deny another that liberty do we cause a reason for conspiracy to flourish in our minds and lives.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

It's an unspoken understanding for the most part. Most whites will deny it, some will deny it even to themselves! Why else would the ads against Harold Ford be working so well? His lead has changed to a 16% loss.
You know the secret code words that really mean black or minority such as welfare cheats, crack users. People with black AVATARS who write liberal opinions get more comments saying they must be on welfare, lazy, unemployed, etc! than people with white avatars. Just change your tint here if your want more positive responses, "best answers" and thumbs up!!

I never really understood how that conclusion is made. none of the traits (rich, white, christian, heterosexual, republican or male) add up to hating anyone or anything just because of general differences.
I've met a few rich people and hate never came up in conversation. Christian doctrine teaches against hate (happen to be one). Heterosexuals have a thing for the ladies (happen to be one of those too), but admit I still don't fully understand why another guy would have a thing for a guy. I'm a Republican and nothing in the political platform expresses hate, and I certainly wouldn't be associated if it did. And being a guy, well... I have friends and some of them happen to be minorities and it has no barring on their personalities. In fact, a mentor of mine is gay... of course he wasn't trying to teach me to be gay either. Another mentor is black, but he wasn't trying to get me to put shoe polish on.
Does that mean I can't stand certain people who happen to be minorities or gay? yep, I can also think of a couple of those as well, but once again has no barring on their ethnic background or sexual orientation.
I think it is 'news worthy' to present hate in the eyes of editors, publishers and producers. And if the 'hater' happens to fall into one of the categories you listed, it shows hypocrisy and the next thing you know, you hear all about it. I don't think you are delusional, just bombarded by to many stories that don't represent the norm.

Yes it is in your head. I am white, not rich, Heterosexual, male and Conservative. Personally I don't really understand racial predjudice. I have no problem with mixed marriages, and could care less what color my friends and neighbors are. It is how they treat me and my family that I concern myself with, and think it would be alot better world if we were all color blind. I also believe there are as many blacks and hispanics that hate whites as there are bigotted whites.
Now I admit I'm not to thrilled with homosexual marriage and then them being able to adopt children.(sorry if that offends but it is true) I don't believe in abusing them or mistreating them. If they want same sex unions with the same basic rights I guess I have no problem with that. I guess I'm just plain old fashioned about marriage. I believe that a child needs both a mother and a father. I believe that it helps balance them emotionally better. I may be wrong but that is how I feel about it.

You're a delusional Schizophrenic. Just ask Michael Steel, Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, etc.

Conspiracy against people of color?
I wouldn't go that far (OK yes for gays) but they're not on board with the priorities of people of color. Otherwise minorities and gays wouldn't vote against them 95% of the time.

No, I don't think all of them hate minorities, but I do think that there is an extremist group of republicans with an agenda to divide everyone, by race, gender, social status, etc... like the old saying goes, "divide and conquer"...

Nope...The Republican Party was DESIGNED to be a White Elitist group, right up there with the Nazis and the KKK, man. Not, might I add, that the Democrats are much better.

Neither is true. You're merely bi-polar, and the conservative conspiracy is against people who have dark eyes. You are persecuted for your lack of color (black is the absence of light and color).
