I don't understand the hysteria and shrieking of "white supremacy" when they just won the white house and got control of the senate. In the end, it wasn't CRT, the exit polls said voters main issue was the economy.
Democrats won using centrists, then they immediately turned on them (as predicted), shifted left and put them in impossible positions. The centrists got them a bipartisan infrastructure bill passed in the senate, then progressives totally shit on them, sabotaged it, getting behind a geriatric communist who isn't even a Democrat, while bullying house centrist democrats.
Last night, a democratic socialist, who *defeated* a centrist Democratic mayor in Buffalo during the primary, supported by progressives and the squad, got DESTROYED in the election by that same centrist who ran as a write in candidate -- a write in candidate.
The country is not progressive, or socialist. Maybe they'll figure that out.
Blah blah blah...here you got with the centrist bullshit again.
There are no centrists in the Republican Party. Centrists end up getting nothing done.
I love how you continually take shots at Biden's age when he and Trump are basically the same fucking age.

Right...sorry...it's more....'if you knew a drug dealer'...and got killed you deserve it....
This is 1980s Reagan bullshit....
poor 17 year old...who went across state lines....to a city he didnt't belong in....what the fuck was he there for?
There are questions you'd ask about a gang member or a drug dealer....but not chubby little kyle.

I remember how a 17 year old drove 20 miles from his home, and was violently assaulted by 3 adults who all had prior felony convictions and were caught on camera assaulting and chasing the 17-year old who shot them in self defense. You know, like the NY Times article that did a minute by minute breakdown.

I'll let the jury decide his guilt or innocence. But thanks for proving me right once again Joe!
right...illegal guns in the hands of chicago gang members bad,....illegal gun in the hands of a chubby white kid is cool cuz he killed people who had felonies.
#375 Re: The Garden » Current Events Thread » 202 weeks ago
Hey....remember when you thought it was cool that a child crossed state lines, obtained a gun illegally and killed people and you were like.....'self defense.'

I was 6 when Bush 1 was elected. Aren't you only a year or 2 older than me? I'll admit that your critical thinking abilities are on par with a 7 year old, but in 1988 I was more concerned with Cookie Monster and Ernie. Like I said, coherent messages with any basis in reality aren't going to be found by this guy. Worrying about cops shooting your infant in their car seat is totally rational, but being worried about tens of thousands of people bringing COVID in with them or thousands of child being sexually exploited, those are all irrational fears.
Now go tell us how you'd refuse to shoot someone raping your wife again. And then remind us how in touch with reality you are.
Yup....this is a real take from Randall Flagg...
since you have neither a wife or a child....you speak from complete ignorance...

How do you figure that? I've stated many times that I think dreamers should be given citizenship. That we should have an e-verify system that allows employers to sponsor employees who are here illegally who've done everything right. So how am I polarized? The last few people I've quoted above are LIBERALS.
How the fuck can you say I don't care when I brought it up? Many times. Holy shit, what a dick move to jump in a thread and pull this out of your ass. I said he didn't care because he refuses to talk about it. He refuses to talk about any negativity about illegal border crossings, which includes child sex trafficking, and the untold numbers who die on the trek here. You've not added anything to this debate but this lazy horse shit.
Dude, if you're expecting the people who post in this section 1-2x a year to have done any real research to support their core beliefs, you're only kidding yourself. 2 billion in damages and 26 people killed during BLM riots last year, but 1.5 million in damage and one unarmed white woman shot by a cop behind a wall who literally just had 3 police officers standing next to her is the greatest tragedy to strike America:
We were told last year that Black Lives are undervalued and we need institutional changes. Yet now that more black children have been murdered in 2021 than all the children that have died from COVID is a reality, the importance of BLM as a national movement has waned. So any discussion of the record loss of Black Lives almost exclusively by other Black people, isn't allowed to be discussed. It's a banned topic here because the people who haven't read a news article on the same topic from two sources in their entire lives get upset when reality doesn't match their head cannon.
It's why January 6th is a story CNN and every other person lacking a single defense of Biden's performance can't let go from the front of their mind, but the attack on the White House was a fucking laugh riot:
On immigration, these jokers can't defend their stance. They're so used to screaming "racists!" and believing it an intelligible response, they're completely incapable of creating a coherent and fact based justification for their opinions. We just went through #MeToo where every actress who sucked a dick for a million dollar movie role was portrayed as a victim of the holocaust. It doesn't matter than at least 20% of the children being brought across the border had no DNA connection to the people calling them "family":
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2 … k-down-fa/
Central American children being exploited in the thousands for human trafficking isn't that big of a deal when your sole and primary focus is to appear woke and parrot what Twitter and MSM have explained is the only acceptable thought.
I know COVID is the worst disease and threat to the world in probably all of human history that warrants destroying the education of nearly every American child and the destruction of thousands of businesses all under the guise of safety. But 20% of illegals entering the country with COVID isn't a big deal at all:
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigr … e-n1276244If you're asking these jokers to stay consistent and apply their stated values and beliefs evenly, you're wasting your time. Mitch can't participate in a discussion with any semblance of a coherent dialogue. He has no interests in it. Harmon pops in once or twice a year to shit on someone and prove he doesn't read either, yet both sit smugly back assured that they have a better understanding of reality than anyone else. They won't be able to cite anything, or worse, cite things in direct conflict with what their argument is, but you're just wasting your breath here.
When their party is destroyed next year in the elections, they'll be the first ones claiming election irregularity. These people believe every conspiracy towards the right they can grasp their hands on, but defy logic and reason to handwave the very same behavior they claimed was the greatest threat to our nation.
Dude...if you expect to ever get a reasonable response from someone who made their mind up about the world during the Reagan administration....you're kidding yourself.

Bill Maher: "If critical race theory means separating 5-year-olds by race and telling some you're oppressors and the others you're the oppressed, and giving up on a colorblind society, and resegregation, and racism is the essence of America—then I'm out."
Look at you do what you accused me doing a couple weeks ago....you cherry picked 2 sentences...good for you.
#379 Re: The Garden » Current Events Thread » 202 weeks ago
Why are you trying to have me believe that every or even most children that come across the border with their parents or 'parents' are being sex trafficked?

It’s only a crime when a toe touches US soil.
