Quote:I'm stereo typed as a liberal by you guys. So yeah, I do take it personal. And yes, jj... Racism by republicans makes me mad, bruh. Lol
I noticed you couldn't come up with something post civil rights republicans have done to help blacks. I wonder why...
Poor guy. I'll tell you, over the last few days watching everyone point out the level of intellectual depravity in your last post was actually kind of heartbreaking. I mean to send you a DM about keeping your head up, but I just never got around to it.
Notice, I took the time to lay out specific systemic and frankly irreversible policy failures of modern progressivism/liberalism. Predictably we get a chorus of people crying foul. Mind you, none of them are espousing that SS is solvent (or a good deal), medicare is solvent Medicaid is solvent, That Obamacare actually met any of its goals, or is sustainable, that the income tax delivered on the promise of a post racial egalitarian society, that the welfare state has uplifted black America, that the regulatory environment has increased our global competitiveness, or that the 22 plus TRILLION DOLLARS spent on the war on poverty was spent wisely. No. All we get is blind shouting about republicans being racist.
This would be sad if it was a one off but it goes much deeper than that. Right now in a general presidential election roughly 90-95% of African Americans vote D every cycle. There isn't a single RATIONAL policy item that yields that level of constituency. This can only be explained by the poisoned well narrative of PARTY THAT HATES YOU, REPUBLICANS ARE RACIST Etc. etc. etc.
That is why the left NEVER, I mean NEVER wants to engage in a substantive debate on issues or policy. If anyone so chooses then I am happy to have that conversation.
We just went through the largest expansion of the state in the history of this country. 10 trillion dollars in new debt, a massive new entitlement and a massive economic "stimulus" package all saw there way through congress. So much so that Barrack Obama counts himself as one of the most legislatively accomplished presidents in this countries history. Yet when the stimulus he advocated for FAILS when the debt that he signed for fails and when the health plan he championed teeters on collapse he spins the cathartic narrative that "It's the racist obstructionist republicans" that are to blame, I have no responsibility as the most powerful man on the planet. That's childish, audacious, and totally dependent on 24 to 1 news coverage to seem remotely plausible.
It saddens me that so many would let an elite few defecate in a box, mark it "racial equality" and keep buying it just to make themselves feel better.
Slavery happened, segregation happened, human nature tends towards darkness. That's all true. But in the end, math matters. Picking up Marxism from the ash heep of history will not bring us the peace that we all seek no matter how much irrational hate some can muster for those who don't think as they do.
