The president of the United States of America has spent the last four years fighting for and alongside racists and white supremacists, while simultaneously using the powers of the presidency fighting against the movement for racial justice reform at every turn, going so far as to singlehandedly reverse public policies designed to implement the necessary change.

He is racial injustice incarnate. — creativesoul

:strong:

Well shit...

I stand corrected. I guess someone did stuff a few nice words about blacks into his mouth.

:rofl:

Probably killed him to say them. He's such a great third grade reader too. Perfect cadence.

A racist president today cannot publicly admit it(yet), but will instead claim to support the black community in their fight for racial justice reform in public spaces while simultaneously doing all of the things I mentioned yesterday. Which leads us back to that...

I offered nine different paragraphs setting out Trump's behaviour and the only reasonable conclusion drawn from what he has actually done. You neglected to directly address any of them, in lieu of proposing a defense for three charges that I did not make. Which paragraph, if any, are you claiming is not true?

Left-wingers call each other comrade all the time. You could even call a democratic socialist "comrade" it doesn't matter. I wouldn't call a centrist Democrat "comrade" but then again I'm pretty sure Streetlight isn't a centrist Democratic.

I wouldn't call you comrade. — BitconnectCarlos

If someone pointed out that I was empowering divisive political rhetoric like a mindless puppet, I like to think that I would have the modicum of self-respect required to admit it rather than trying to weasel out of it with the stupid claim that it’s meaningless.

"Empowering divisive political rhetoric" - that's a good one. Nah, Streetlight and I are beyond rational political discourse with each other at this point. We don't seriously discuss politics with each other because our fundamental values are so different and I think we both know that. There's no real discussion to be had, so we either joke around or insult each other depending on our mood. "Comrade" is just me keeping things light.

Only two days ago:

But he was going to shoot bullets out of the back of his head at them. That's what these auterrorists always do. Better just go straight to execution.

Shithole backward country. Feel sorry for the decent Americans who have to suffer it.

Why don't we ask Streetlight what he is politically and from there I'll determine if "comrade" is appropriate? — BitconnectCarlos

Gonna go with 'not a fuckstick'. Otherwise imma sit here and watch you hash our your identity politics which you so enjoy.

Thes guys must be qanon operatives, the're just hiding under a mask of plausible deniability. They know that if they just came right and and said it (about the children farms in tunnels under London and the blood sucking Democrats) we'd laugh them out of Dodge City. They reserve those gory details for the base, who lap it up.

Just another day of cops shooting autistic boys in the back. Threatened by someone more mentally stable than them, I guess. — StreetlightX

And the underlying reason was systemic racism?



Or could we start calling this problem that the police is using excessive force in general and get's away with it in a biased judicial system?

You realize an institution can both be systematically racist and excessively violent right? Or is this too big a thought for you?

You realize an institution can both be systematically racist and excessively violent right? Or is this too big a thought for you? — StreetlightX

Concentrating on the systemic racism part veers the focus away from the fact that excessive violence happens without regard to one's race. Where was the white priviledge of Linden Cameron?

Or do you think that this police officer was different from those other trigger happy policemen that have shot unarmed black people without any reason? Those were racists, but this guy was policeman was different, just inept to tackle the child, as the mother thought the policeman ought to respond?

So your answer is "yes" then. Good to know.

?

Sorry, to what am I saying yes?

It's OK, don't worry your pretty little head about it, I don't want you to hurt yourself.

Right. You go with your condescending own echo-chamber...

I'll assume that you didn't understand at all what I was saying and naturally didn't care at all.

Well, if your really lucky, you can continue to enjoy your bickering even more on how evil and racist white Americans are if Trump wins the election.

I believe Streetlight is Australian - that pretty much says it all.

Well, I'm a Finn, so I shouldn't care either.

Unfortunately Europeans will start mimicking the trends from the US, the good ones and the bad ones, because I guess there isn't anything else to do. What I'm worried that your shit show of politics will come to be my shit show of politics later.

It's all same shit different day with the crazy primates wobbling around on a rock that's rolling toward nowhere.

Turn your attention to something awesome.

I can see how it would be difficult to consider two facts together if you have a walnut-sized brain.

Is the fear that Donald Trump could successfully overturn a lost election particularly realistic? Some people seem to worry, and Trump himself seems to think, that having a significant Republican majority in the SC, including a couple of judges who no doubt would do whatever Trump told them, would make the court his to control. But while I can see things like Roe v Wade coming under threat, I can't imagine even a majority of Republican judges voting to suspend democracy and effectively institute fascism. Aren't these fears a little too... well... crazy? If Trump loses, he loses. The biggest problem is surely American patriotism. A vote against a sitting President, even one as demonstrably moronic and owned as Bush Jr, is no sure thing.

It's OK, don't worry your pretty little head about it, I don't want you to hurt yourself. — StreetlightX

That is not excusable. Self-destructing when you're on the right side of the argument is not only unnecessary, it's outright bizarre.

Disengaging from a moron is hardly self-destruction.

Disengaging from a moron is hardly self-destruction. — StreetlightX

That's certainly true. Bye.

Like I said, I disagree with all of your spin. I don’t think any of it is true, just like your statement that Trump has never said anything about the plight of “African Americans”, where you had to keep pushing the mental goalposts to make room for your ignorance.

As for some more news:

President Trump’s plan for Black America designates the KKK and Antifa as terrorist organizations and calls for making lynching a national hate crime, while pledging to increase access to capital in Black communities by nearly $500 billion, Fox News has learned

Trump $500B Black America plan designates KKK, Antifa as 'terrorist organizations'

“Both wear masks and both burn black businesses”. So good.

Well, I'm a Finn, so I shouldn't care either.

Cultural imperialism. While they openly hate America and incite anti-Americanism they gobble its most ridiculous ideologies. The read that a university in Scotland renamed the David Hume building to George Floyd.

I don’t think any of it is true, just like your statement that Trump has never said anything about the plight of “African Americans” — NOS4A2

Well, as I said... I stand corrected on that. He has made a few(scripted by others) remarks about that. The facts proved me wrong on that, just as they prove me right regarding the aforementioned nine paragraphs that you've refused to directly discuss.

All good.

If we place Trump's nice remarks on one side of lady justice's scale and his derogatory negative devaluations and actual behaviours regarding racial justice reform and the ever-growing movement for it on the other, it's quite easy to see how he leans...

The read that a university in Scotland renamed the David Hume building to George Floyd. — NOS4A2

Yeah, what a horrible thing to do. I mean it's not like there's any need to focus upon systemic racism, institutional racism, racial justice reform, abuse of power, or Black Lives Matter. I mean, what a ridiculous ideology. Such people who focus upon things like that act as if something is wrong with the way things are...

I mean, even the president hopes there's not a race problem, or so he says. He doesn't have a problem.

That says it all, doesn't it?

You will need a s***show person supported by s***show people. I am not aware Finns have such a persons or people. But you have the example that you need to fight them from the git go. Evil is evil, bad is bad, and enemies are enemies. They give no quarter; give them none.

a university in Scotland renamed the David Hume building to George Floyd. — NOS4A2

Well that certainly proves you read right-wing trash. Not that there was doubt.

It's not true?

Well, shit. I thought it was cool that they would do so...
