The DNC establishment just decided to push the Russia thing for 4 years, because they have literally no message on how they want to improve this country, and they can't stand the fact that they're so crusty and useless that they lost to a reality TV con artist. They like to pretend all day that half the country votes for goofy Republicans because they're perfect and humans are dumb. The party of nothing vs. the party of no. Democrats like Sanders and Cortez actually stand for some good ideas, and they get slandered by the DNC.

Voxwik 03/28/19 12:18:26 PM #171:	I mean, it's very possible he isn't guilty of collusion but he has dug himself into such a pathetic place it shouldn't matter when it comes to his political future. He's suggested it's okay people suffer if they "are Democrats." He's many times called the free press the "enemy of the people." He literally bragged he could shoot someone in broad daylight and his supporters would stick by him. He said he can't lose any legitimate election, and has done untold damage to our system of free elections by spreading (completely false) allegations of mass voter fraud that not even his supporters can show is real. He lies, incessantly, all the time about things minor and major. He has bragged about groping women. He has literally said "they" should look into pulling the licenses of programs that embarrass or contradict him. Multiple times, he's praised dictators for their "strength." He's commented that countries in South America "can't control their own people," as if that is what governments are supposed to do. The guy is a narcissistic would-be dictator without a shred of regret for being a malicious idiot. His political future should be over, just based on all of those things alone. For that matter, even if he didn't do anything the fact he has tried to act as if he should be above investigation should be alarming. The fact he thinks the justice department should be there to defend him is disturbing. Trump and his most rabid supporters are an existential threat to freedom in this country, and people need to get out and vote to stop them or we're in deep trouble. <cite>Voxwik posted [p:919654121] in How is Tru...

Of course, given how much effort was likely put into bumping this topic, I have to respond, don't I? darkknight109 posted... But that's not what you said originally; you just said that calling people animals was racist, full stop. Not "it can be racist, depending on context." In fact, most of the people you were arguing with were trying to point out to you the exact same thing you're saying now, which you weren't having. No, it's completely compatible with my original statement considering that somebody who doesn't completely understand the implications associated with a word using it is completely different from somebody reasonably expected to know said meaning. Stop trying to pretend otherwise. darkknight109 posted... You are, once again, completely misconstruing the issue. Trump didn't accidentally call immigrants animals. He called them animals, several people pointed out that doing so was racist and explained the connotations of what he had said, and then - in direct response to those people - he called them animals again. You're trying to paint this like Trump was doing this by accident, which he absolutely was not. And you once again misconstrue the issues. When Trump sneezes, people call him racist. Therefore there's no reasonable expectation for him to take the "Cry Wolf" crowd seriously but, even taking that into account, you're talking post facto. Otherwise, it comes back to the fact that you can't reasonably expect the very old to be PC when the rules of PC have changed many times during their lifetime especially when you're young enough to be their grandkid. darkknight109 posted... This is hilarious given that I'm almost certainly older than you are, judging by some of the things you've posted in the past. Judging from the stuff you've posted over the years, I would have wondered if you were even 18 if not for your account age. darkknight109 posted... I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here, can you post it in English please? Can I send you a copy of Hooked-on-Phonics so you can understand it? And so far as I'm aware you don't have a non-native speaker excuse. darkknight109 posted... Again, you're painting this like Trump did this without realizing it. He lost that plausible deniability when someone pointed out what he was doing to him. Post facto and from an unreliable source that spins everything the president does as being racist, hence losing any credibility that might make for a plausibility argument. darkknight109 posted... I don't know, you seem awfully touchy about this subject. Are you angry you can't get away with using a racist slur of some kind that you used to use or something? You seem awfully troll-y about most things. darkknight109 posted... I mean, I've never been accused of racism or using a slur that I didn't realize was a slur, so I seem to have managed just fine. That you know of and, as a person of no particular importance, it's highly unlikely that your words or deeds would ever be truly scrutinized especially if you virtue-signaled properly.

Zeus 03/29/19 2:00:37 AM #176:	darkknight109 posted... I completely realize that, because the idea that old people get a pass on racism because "they're too old to understand it" or something, is inherently ludicrous. That's exactly what I'm trying to highlight for you, so I'm glad you at least partially understand it. Your opinions are inherently ludicrous and more out of the touch than those ascribed to the elderly. darkknight109 posted... You don't know how old I am, so you don't actually have a basis for saying that. You keep quoting and responding with variations of this, so I won't bother with individual responses to each of your overly defensive protests. After all, I want to finish my response within the same week. darkknight109 posted... Contrary to your assertions, a decent leader does not need to spend time "studying" what language is and is not acceptable, because they simply don't use language that ever even borders on offensive. Again, I'm not familiar with any president of either party in the last ~40 years having an issue with this. Perhaps I have forgotten a faux pas somewhere, but it's definitely not a common event. Contrary to your assertion, that's the realm of mediocre leaders who concern themselves almost entirely with appearance rather than substance. It also leads to bad policy. darkknight109 posted... Not my country, so I didn't particularly care at that point. I kept abreast of the highlights, but did I actually pay any substantial attention to the primaries? No, and I never have. For a nation other than your own, you have an enormous fixation. I could have swore you referencing having been active in certain states, though. darkknight109 posted... Fascinating, but I'm still not seeing a source (for your previous comment - I did find Bernie's comments on race you're referencing here, unrelated and irrelevant to the discussion though they may be). And no, "the primaries" are not a source. That's like me saying "Yes, I found this fact - it's in the Encyclopedia Britannica." Which once again comes under the realm of "I want to finish my response within this week" since I don't feel like poring over transcripts or rewatching everything. darkknight109 posted... So, funny thing about that - I didn't actually look up the full context when you originally referenced it and I just did. Turns out she never actually calls African Americans "superpredators" - she just says that juvenile gangs connected to drug cartels are "superpredators" that have no conscience or empathy, never suggesting that the gangs were composed of African Americans. Which is something I'll have to confirm when I feel like wasting a week responding to an inconsequential argument. darkknight109 posted... Trump and Reince Priebus attempted to slag her with it in an attempt to reduce her standing with African American voters and, to be fair, Clinton did apologize when pressed by BLM reps (I suspect more out of a sense of political expediency than anything else), but her initial comments weren't nearly as controversial as you're suggesting. And you sound like you were pretty young in the 90s, if you were alive at all, so I'll go ahead and point out that nothing of what she said would have raised many eyebrows back then. 99% sure that Bernie supporters started tossing that out there first, but it's been a long-standing criticism of Hillary regardless. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:919692259] in How is Tru...

And you sound like you were pretty young in the 90s, if you were alive at all, so I'll go ahead and point out that nothing of what she said would have raised many eyebrows back then.</quote> 99% sure that Bernie supporters started tossing that out there first, but it's been a long-standing criticism of Hillary regardless.</quote> ...
