There has never been a better time in the history of the world to be an actual racist or xenophobe. The outraged left has completely devalued the terms to a point that nobody really gives them the credit that they deserve.
@LesDeplorable I still don't think you understand this.
Systemic racism is very different than Mexicans not like Blacks. Or people from one South American nation hating a different one. Thats good old fashioned racism or just plain hatred.
What has happened in South Africa was systemic racism toward Blacks for generations. Then finally in 1994 it started to end. So unless the Blacks in South Africa are totally in power now and oppressing the white farmers through laws, and various societal pressures, then it's not racism.
It's not good obviously, but it's just a lot of generational hatred going on, not systemic racism.
@Lizabee From what I can remember he also said something about pipelines using all U.S. steel (they're not) and 45,000 coal miners going back to work (which isn't true). But, you know, MAGA!
I think it will all work out just fine. Besides, every time I start shaking my head at what Trump is doing, I simply remember that it could have been the Hilldabeast, and it just doesn't seem that bad anymore.
@DethComesRipping well thought out and interesting perspective. I tend to agree. Trump's true acolytes are either not exactly intellectually curious enough to pursue veracity of claims, or old rich white guys that think he will help them get richer.
Its really based in this insane and crazy fear of the left. That somehow they believe all the "fake news media" shit he says and it just builds up this fear of the other side.
I think Trump lovers hate America and want to see what little is left of it destroyed. I imagine them getting a big laugh out of everything their hero says and does.
