It's literally in the title. Conservative, by definition, means upholding traditional values and preserving the status quo.

The status quo in America is racism.


That literally hasn't been the status quo in over 50 years.

I believe there's a compelling case to be made that the modern Democratic platform disenfranchises black Americans in a way that exceeds the Dixiecrats' wildest dreams (except voting rights, desegregation, and perhaps affirmative action).

both american liberalism and american conservatism are steeped in racism

the racism against those respective groups withers in the face of peculiar individuals of the races in question who share the beliefs of the group said to otherwise hate them

but there's really nothing like the racism that rears its ugly head when an individual of a group expected to align with one of the two sides goes against the grain of the side in question


Yeah every black person here who says anything against the liberal narrative is literally called names like Uncle Tom and other awfully racist names by liberals in the most ironic fashion possible.

Conversely, White people who go against the conservative and/or alt-right narrative are called "race traitors".


I've literally never seen anyone say that to a white person here.

It happens, but in pretty fringe circles (Alt-Right, Neo-Nazis, perhaps some more racially-minded Paleocons). Far less prevalent than what goes on in the liberal realm.

Would there have been a Hitler if the South had won?

i'm sure black ppl would consider Lee or one of the other generals Hitler. yes.

I'm black and believe Lee was a stellar statesman. Don't put words in my mouth on the basis of my race, that's racist.

But that has absolutely nothing to do with my question. The dynamics and trajectory of 20th Century geopolitics would have been significantly altered by a split in the United States.

Hitler's rise stemmed from unfavorable terms at Versailles, which stemmed from the United States tipping the scale in WW1, involvement which stemmed from outrage over the Zimmerman telegram, which threatened mostly states that had been claimed by the Confederacy, which likely would not have had the same economic power for an intervention in Europe of the same magnitude - let alone the same capacity for munitions manufacturing for sale to the Allies which earned the ire of the Central Powers in the first place - never mind neighboring a potentially hostile north with a significant German-American population which would have caused the Confederacy to think twice about spreading itself thin by getting heavily involved in a conflict overseas.

Topic$5k, but the above poster gets $5m
TheMikh
07/05/18 7:38:20 AM
#48
interesting problem

if yes: guaranteed 5k, possible 5m
if no: deny self of 5k and previous person of 5m

so for yes, a maximum of 5.005m and minimum of 0.005m

complicating the equation is that if someone says no, they deny one person of their potential maximum, but to punish them is to compromise one's own potential maximum

perhaps the most pragmatic solution would be to punish the initial naysayers with no, but resume the chain of yeses thereafter thus rewarding the naysayer punisher with just shy of the potential maximum - a sacrifice which could then theoretically pay for itself 1000x, in a sense

so no

This guy thinks he knows better than the Supreme Court.

I support Roe v. Wade, but at the same time, I'd concede that the Supreme Court has made some horrendous rulings in its time. Plessy for starters.

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's unconstitutional, though its use of the 14th is a bit of a stretch. On the other hand, rulings between the 14th and Roe likely offer better context with respect to to the decision.

It probably was done by his staff. Ron Paul is scum, but he's not dumb enough to think he could post something like that and get away with it.


why is he scum?

Doesn't like civil rights act, opposes social security, wants to pretty much eliminate public education. Back before he was famous he used to put out newsletters with racist rants, paranoia, and all sorts of insane rhetoric. Once he became more mainstream he started denying them but still.

And he has supported all the worst Republican policies. As a Libertarian you would think he would agree on open borders but he seems to think keeping those dirty Mexicans out is more important than the principles he supposedly believes in.

the best libertarians support private borders

I can't tell who is who. Everyone is dressed in black, wearing armor, covering up their face, etc.

Looks more like people itching for a fight regardless of whether they call themselves far-right or antifa. Fuck 'em both.

To my understanding, protective gear has become standard attire for right-wing demonstrators as they pretty much anticipate violence from antifa by now. It was far less prevalent in 2016 and early 2017.

The alternatives are to suffer significant harm (with low probability of the perpetrators being brought to justice), or not to demonstrate at all, both of which are precisely what antifa wants, and the latter defeating the purpose of why many of the demonstrations occur to begin with.
