What? No, Iām saying that for me, it was strange living in a city rife with Klansmen and people with KKK members in their family, and that it was so prevalent that it was just a known quantity. I absolutely do not do the same thing on any level because I do not know any Klansmen or normalize their behavior.
And Iām saying that for me thatās not strange at all.
What about casual racists, misogynists, trump voters, etc.? If not, then you truly live in a rarefied social stratum. I make no distinction between someone who dresses up in a bedsheet and duncecap and someone who drops the n bomb the moment āthose peopleā are out of earshot. Theyāre all part of the same problem. Yet even in this big northeastern city in which I live, I constantly have to put up with people defending their racist friends
Thatās cool for you I suppose! Please stop insulting me by saying itās odd that I feel uncomfortable living in Klan-ridden cities and donāt associate with racists or Trump voters. I donāt defend those people. Thank you!
Thatās not what Iām saying. Iām saying thereās no difference between listening to someone in Cincinnati defending their friend in the KKK and listening to someone in Boston defending their deeply antisemitic friend from business school. I thought it would be better up here, or at least different, but it isnāt. These people are everywhere.
I not saying itās trump but, itās probably trump. (Because Cohen is in jail)
according to the washington post, most of it is his wifeās money from an inheritance.
Considering it often feels, from our perspective, that the leftwing canāt ever agree on how to do anything, while republicans are in military like lockstep, itās nice to see when republicans say that it looks the opposite from their point of view. I heard a similar sentiment when randomly tuning into a conservative talk radio show a couple months ago. Maybe democrats are divided on a lot of points but we all at least agree trump is the absolute worst and maybe thatās all he cares about. A quote from tonightās trump rally:
Well. We can expect some sort of document leaks about Cummings soon enough.
Itās good to be the king, I guess.
He married well I give him that.
And that only.
(Still donāt buy itās all legit)
NOBODY HAS LEGITIMATELY EARNED A MILLION DOLLARS (say, per year), without some form of systemic and/or personal inequality or exploitation.
āLegitā businesspeople ā> systemic
Crooks ā> personal
Yup, I can see how Antifa is the real enemy.
Is it wrong that my first thought when I saw that the House has started impeachment investigations was, āTheyāre going to totally screw this upā?
Theyāre pushing the āAntifa = domestic terroristā line, even into Canada.
Meanwhile Trump promotes an organization that is responsible for actual acts of terror.
