And who doesn't make friends when we're members of those groups? We should applaud this man for recognizing and rejecting our so-called leader for what he is--and you've all seen the list of Trump's qualities before, so I won't repeat that. Maybe he can convince some of his Republican friends to come to their senses and vote against Trump. Let's hope so.

Jordan Rideout no my friend is a trump supporter we had a calm discussion about it and we both had leveled headed mindsets.

You don’t have to agree with someone to be their friend/associate

[@jordanrideout1269]

@Sea Siren - While I think that’s great, I’m curious about what you think of the highly educated Trump supporters. Also, would you consider someone who is uneducated as being someone in the marginalized class?

[@jordanrideout1269]

@Sea Siren - I support Trump, I’m educated (although admittedly not highly educated), and game for debate. As for highly educated, maybe at least one high profile example would be Ben Shapiro. I think it’s interesting that you find it hard to imagine a highly educated Trump supporter and then point to polls. Ignoring the issue of polling, a group of people that is, on average, uneducated should not lead you to conclude that educated people don’t exist in that group. And believe me, I could show you hours of footage of people on the left protesting and being obnoxious with absolutely no clue what they’re talking about. In addition, when you see coverage of ‘obnoxious political people’ there’s so much of it that’s barely edited and just meandering through lefty crowds to ask questions, and so much of it that shows dumb Trump supporters, but often carefully selected people and edits. So... it’s hard for me to believe that stupidity here doesn’t lean left.

[@meghnac78]

@@tet7497 The same Republican party who fought for equality is now refusing to acknowledge that systemic racism still exists in this country. The party of Lincoln has now become fraught with people who doesn't put people before profit. Values and viewpoints change, don't they?

[@OjoBlacke]

@@tet7497 Get the facts straight, or at least straighter: "Nearly 40 African American religious leaders released a statement supporting the bill, saying: “While we do not agree with every provision in the crime bill, we do believe and emphatically support the bill’s goal to save our communities, and most importantly, our children.” And 10 African American mayors wrote to the chairman of the CBC, Rep. Kweisi Mfume, pledging their support for the bill, even if it lacked a racial justice provision the White House was prepared to give up to get more votes for the legislation. That provision would have allowed defendants to appeal a death sentence by submitting data that suggested a racial bias in death sentencing in a jurisdiction. “We cannot afford to lose the opportunities this bill provides to the people of our cities,” the mayors wrote, according to the Los Angeles Times on July 15, 1994." "Republicans thought the bill had grown too “soft”; they objected to additional spending in the final bill, calling it “pork.” McConnell told CNN on Aug. 15, 1994, 10 days before the final Senate vote: “The Kentucky Fraternal Order of Police this weekend came out against this crime bill. … [B]ecause they thought it was porked up, that it was going to be a bill basically about social workers and not police officers.”

[@OjoBlacke]

@@tet7497 Wrong. He wanted the bill more effective, but with safety provisions for minorities, only Republicans who considered it "too soft" refused to vote in favor of it unless those saftey provisions were removed, and black religious and political leaders still approved of it because they felt more needed to be done about crime, which Biden tried to achieve. Thing is, some people accept incomplete and/or biased "reported" sources as true rather than research and study the true sources for information that will allow them to decide for themselves what's true and not true. Since the onset of the internet and extreme disinformation, I gave up taking anyone's word for anything. It's lazy to do so.

[@OjoBlacke]

@@tet7497 First of all, your comments and my responses were about Biden and what you called the "malice law' in Washington State and what its intentions were and the less than fully factual assertions you made about it being some kind of intentionally racist act, and not about whether some people from both parties are "racist and bad.' Secondly, Martin Luther King, as well as many black Americans, initially thought Nixon was 'on their side', but later questioned his sincerity: "Blacks believed Nixon to be more committed to civil rights reform than President Eisenhower had been, but the attitudes of black voters shifted during the final days of the 1960 presidential campaign. In October 1960 King was sentenced to four months in jail for violating his probation after participating in an Atlanta sit-in. After encouragement from Harris Wofford and other advisors, Nixon’s opponent, John F. Kennedy, phoned Coretta Scott King to convey his sympathy. King expressed disappointment that, despite his previously warm relationship with Nixon, “When this moment came, it was like he had never heard of me.” King believed Nixon’s inaction made him appear as “a moral coward and one who was really unwilling to take a courageous step and take a risk” (King, 9 March 1964)." Thirdly, I think the internet and extreme disinformation has made dramatic conspiratorial delusions of the satanic Illuminati via Globalization seem so real to the easily moulded thought of today's youth so that the real danger of dictatorial nationalism becomes not only negligible, but readily acceptable. Sad.

[@AMoistEggroll]

@@dr.flacko203 Not everybody's vote. There have been countless reports of voter suppression all over the nation, particularly targeting racial minorities, women, and the youth, dating back to the early 19th century. Both legal and illegal efforts have been made to prohibit eligble voters to exercise their right to vote. Of course voter suppression varies among jurisdictions, but there needs to be a more effective way to protect everyone's right to vote nationwide!

[@dr.flacko203]

@@AMoistEggroll You're talking categorically. I'm talking in a syllogical manner. All votes are ethically supposed to matter. Votes never did not matter. That is a truth, it is evident and proven. If the evidence fits the premise the conclusion comes as such.

[@dr.flacko203]

@mark burke To say that people's votes matter is wrong, I'm afraid, is a logical fallacy, with which we call as "false premise". It is to create a rhetoric of upholding assumption as a proven fact. People's votes matter, if I was wrong, in heterological example, leaders would only be selected by choice of high authority, with no regard to the lower society, breaking the laws of Uni-ethicism. Votes matter in this sense.

[@dr.flacko203]

@mark burke The claim you made in regards to electoral colleges is also a Logical fallacy; Hasty Generalization, in which you project a statement and treat it as if it was an established fact without regards to the etymological and historical evidences that will satisfy the premise and therefore calibrate itself to the conclusion.
