***Official Political Discussion Thread***

[Master Zik]

i called white privilege a tool derived from da left to make white people recognize their own race, something they never did...and ya mad they started to vote like a minority bloc...how is that saying its made up?

it worked, it just backfired miserably for liberals using identity politics

The more you talk about the race based issues of this country the dumber and stupider you sound.

I see now why you subscribe to the whole identity politics alternative and white supremacist doesn't exist nonsense.

You probably gonna just stay in your bubble so you never get a dose of that real.

ahh pipe down..its exactly what happened

RIP identity politics

Identity politics never existed though

Its called systemic racism.

only da left subscribes to systemic racism.. there's your problem.

Racism to da vast public is still understood as one person directly castigating da next person cuz of da color of their skin...

systemic/structural racism is another concept that people don't buy into and is polarizing.

This has nothing to do with left or right or politics.

If you over here, as a black person denying systemic racism YOU'RE LOST.

Just cuz you don't buy in to gravity doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Not subscribing to science does not make it invalid.

You still on that CLOWN **** ninja.

You keep buying in to this logic that if the majority or a huge # believe something is not right then it's not right or if something is correct then that makes it a fact. You've displayed it before with the Reagan election results and now with these silly leaps in logic with these recent election results. Its stupid.

I didn't know Dubya was doing oppo for Ellison's opponents

Keith ellison has surrounded himself with, and publicly defended, jew haters for years. In fact one could easily argue that the media has suppressed his story while concentrating on steve bannon's "anti semitism" which has far less proof and is being pushed by liberal media

He cancelled an interview with the NY times when he found out his past comments on Farakahn would be brought up. You think it's just about israel with him then you haven't paid attention. I love how liberals don't question when any other minority gets offended. But when jews gets offended there is an open dialogue about it really not being that bad or really only being about the israeli government.

He also has ties to muslim brotherhood related entities and wrote an article about black separatism. He's a terrible person to lead the DNC. Democrats have problems with white working voters and the first direction you go in is someone who rolled with the nation of islam?

 

[rico x hood]

Because they want an anti Trump leading them. A black Muslim is perfect. Just goes to show that they learned nothing from the election. They keep trying to recapture that Obama magic because they don't yet or refuse to realize that 08 was an anomaly. Just because you prop up a "historic" candidate doesn't mean the populace is going to coalesce around them.

@Rolaholic our mans never fails us.

I could rip this comment apart from so many angles. But I'm not in the mood to hear the rant you will respond with.

I asked you a direct question. Why didn't you answer it?

You voted for Rubio.

Fixed. Don't believe his lies.

It makes sense. There was a time when only white people could vote. So they voted on individual self interest. Then more people were included but were pretty inconsequential on a national scale. Then things started happening that changed their way of life, so they eventually had to shed their self interests and vote as a bloc like minorities do. Power in numbers. It isn't a difficult concept to understand.

You voted for Rubio.

Not because he was Latino.

Why would I lie? Trump won.

So you a black man, hell an educated human being, is agreeing with the claim white people only acknowledged their whiteness because liberal whites started talk about white privileged.

You find new ways for me to lose the lil bit of respect I had for you.

You're putting words in my mouth. I said looking at how voting has progressed in this country it makes sense that white people have started voting in their own self interest as group and not individually.

That is not what he ******* said or the question I ask.

Stop being a damn coward on race issues for once and say something is wrong.

Geez

You know damn well how white solidarity, white rage, white privilege, and white identity has been around for a while and how the ugly parts of it have effect people that look like you.

Yet you never have the guts to admit it.

**** is disgusting

 

[rico x hood]

I have never denied that there's racism in this country. I just categorically disagree with every tactic black people have chosen to fight it. So I just vote for my own self interest. I've said this many times.

You act like such a coward

Most of your post in here is defending white supremacy and cosigning right wing nonsense

Nothing about you says you give a shot about the black community.

 

[ninjahood]

Man oh man, liberals need to stop with this whole circular firing squad. Anti-racism, Anti-Patriarchy, environmental justice and economic justice are all constituent parts of the same social justice whole. The people who understand this, people like Kshama Sawant, Robert Reich and William Barber are all on the periphery.

Meanwhile we get treated to the spectacle of Nancy Pelosi, the personification of the Democratic party's out of touch green neoliberalism, battling it out with Tim Ryan, a man who is the personification of every negative Bernie bro stereotype. To make matters worse, a truly intersectional politico, Keith Ellison, is wasting all of his time and energy to become the DNC's chief fundraiser.

It is a mess and all of this false choice nonsense needs to stop.

if ya don't come back towards da middle ya gonna be lost for a LONG time...or until da GOP starts getting advice from da radicalized religious right...

Bill Clinton's legacy looks worst and worst as time goes by because of his centrist policies.

ya wanna complain or ya wanna win? its thats simple.

because ya not winning being über left.

thats just da bottomline.

and u still being in denial of political reality.

da politics of lecturing people about their privilege when their jobs and lives are crumbling tends to not work...

identity politics is a losing strategy...

who dems even got for 2020?

It's not that I don't care. I just choose not to be a part of the black zeitgeist because I don't believe in it and I don't think it's effective. And I don't defend white supremacy, let's chill with the hyperbole.

its not that to see this....

ds irony is Rusty is checking your minority membership while being completely oblivious to da fact whites have started to harness da power of voting as a bloc because of da awakening of identity politics da left has chucked at em.

Joe? he wouldn't make it out da primaries cuz da liberals would purity test him to death.

 

[MVP]

This isn't a new phenomenon though. The GOP has always had the majority of the white vote on lock. And if you look at the deep south since civil rights they've voted as a bloc as well even though it's against what would be their self interests given the amount of poor whites in those states. Like Rusty has said before they'd rather suffer than being associated with minorities who they believe are leeching off the very same social programs that they take advantage of. Hell even now just look at the clowns complaining about possibly losing their health insurance. It's not about self interest it's always been about "da identity politics".
