Phew….This race bs could have dragged on and on forever. I am glad we got this race thing figured out back in 2008 that way we don’t have to still deal with it today. Can you imagine if we were teaching our kids race is the most important feature about them these days? That would be nuts…oh wait a sec.

[@Michael_Hunt]

It's crazy listening to these old clips and hearing when the infection began. Small little things people were brainwashed to believe that then snow balled to where we are now.

Could have done without the "oh wait a sec", we got it with the "Phew", we get it, you're being sarcastic 👏👏👏

I love Ron, but as soon as he said "poverty," I shook my head.

[@jcbiek]

Yea exactly, then he said if you break down in a nice black Neighborhood your ok! Where is this so-called mythical place, I wonder??

[@michaelrabidoux3692]

Ron is one of the funniest humans ever. Politically, he’s always been a boob & a coward. 👊

[@youtubebannedme4207]

​@@jcbiek there's plenty of them they just don't make the news because nothing is happening worth reporting. Ron was correct pover areas are high crime areas for many reasons none of which have to do with skin color.

[@TheRealTurkFebruary]

I generally disagree with Ron regarding the poverty statement, but I wouldn’t call him names over it. What happened to respecting another person’s opinion? Everybody sees the world through a very unique prism called the human mind.

If we seriously gave black people 40 acres and a mule, first off that'd be 67% of all the land in the USA, not to mention 41 million mules. 40M black people x 40 acres / 640 (640 acres = 1sqr mile) = 2,562,500 square miles out of 3.79M square miles.

Earl wants reparations, yet doesn't know a lot about his own history. That's just some phrase he heard a lot over the course of his life. He's a dolt. A lovable dolt, but a dolt none the less.

[@VashTheDamnFiend]

Then why was it a government issued order to do so if it wasn’t viable? It was simply redistributing confederate land to the people who were enslaved and horribly mistreated for decades before.

[@MeltingBuddhaCandle]

Because it wasn’t when there was 40 million people who think they are owed that.

I'm not defending earl here since he is an identity politics obsessed lib but hasn't anthony himself conceded and even called himself a racist on the air? Why does he suddenly have a problem with the accusation? Knowing youre racist but acting all indignant when someone calls you it is typical.

Ant destroyed Earl as fas as debating goes but as much as I love and honestly think he’s one of the funniest beings of our era - he (Ant) infuriates me at times with his close mindedness, such as those exemplified in this video. It’s amazing that he can still make me laugh even when I’m totally at odds with his perspective. That just shows how genuinely funny the man is.

[@VashTheDamnFiend]

It’s not closed mindedness if you’re open minded and then draw conclusions off your experiences

Ant couldn't be more wrong about the US, and Obama, if he were trying to.

[@VashTheDamnFiend]

How so?

[@TheMisadventuresOfWiggy]

I know right? he didn't even get the right number of innocent victims that Obama had killed ..

[@thebipolarpsychonaut4984]

​@@VashTheDamnFiendBy what he says, lol. Sorry, I had to. America is already a mix of socialism and capitalism. Look to the military as an example of US socialism. Add to that roads, public schools, parks, libraries, the police, emergency services, etc etc. Big businesses get bailed out every time, but you and I will never be. That's the government choosing the winners, basically socializing the risks and the poor decisions corporations make based on their greed. The majority of the inflation we saw from 2021 to 2022 was a direct result of corporate greed. The only real question is where we draw the line. Also, Obama didn't say most of what Ant is accusing him of saying.
