the grifters dragged the trumpy faction right and are now playing catch up as some of the people radicalized right past them and now their brand of right wing shit has no audience Kirk is one of them
I feel like being forced to live as a vegetable is more appropriate than being given the sweet release of death for someone like him
If these traitors ever get their due with an executioner I hope that little bitch goes last so he can watch. Would never happen but a man can dream
There was a Civil War. Pretty obscure reference I know, but any good movie about Vietnam deals with the race relations of soldiers fighting it.
every wwii veteran served in a segregated military like people are alive, you can talk to them about it
As a white person, I feel comfortable saying we'd be better off as a society if white people just shut up for a few months and let everyone else figure out what's going on
I don’t think Paul Ryan is a white nationalist. He is asshole, and would happily use them, but that isn’t what motivates his politics.
People who aren’t aware our military was segregated in WWII obviously haven’t heard the story of Doris Miller. He hopped on an anti-aircraft gun during the attack on Pearl Harbor and fought with such valor, shooting down multiple Japanese planes, that he was awarded the Navy Cross. First Black man awarded one. He had no training because despite being in the Navy, he was forced to work as a cook, as only whites were allowed to train for and serve in combat. His actions led many in the Navy to finally reconsider the idea that Blacks couldn’t be good in battle.
Extremely whitely: Noooo those minorities will all take bloody revenge on us! I saw those stories published on STORMFRONT Tucker Carlson!!
lol I was about to post this and say this said it better than I ever could than I realized you posted the answer I wanted to give you about Ryan. I’d say it doesn’t matter if Ryan is truly a white nationalist if he is using then to further his agenda he is one.
Yeah. While there is some nuance in the degree with which people like Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, Nikki Haley, and even Tim Scott agree with the now orthodox Republican party position advocating white supremacy. It fundamentally doesn't matter, as they are all willing to go there together.
I'm glad to see Lyrtch tagged here because he's the only person ITT that I think can 'get' Matthew Yglesias. His Twitter is just a hopscotch of... 1. "The thing no one understands about electoral politics is...." to 2. "The big debate around housing policy in Portland is..." to 3. "Actually, the way to fix online radicalization among white male teenagers is..." It's just too much for me. Also, Slow Boring is the worst newsletter name I've ever heard. It's like he's trying to piss people off.
Interracial marriage wasn’t legal nationwide until 1967. A 54 year old person was born the year we finally decided black and white people could marry one another
