Who's Identity Politics

Huh? There is 30 years of evidence of the black minority voting 90% or greater for Democrat candidates.

What do you mean there isn't any evidence?

Your analogy is meaningless.The correct analogy would be asking for a basket of fruit and getting one that is 90% apples. It doesn't matter if the basket is full or empty! Nor does it matter if 10% are oranges, they are all fruit. Just like a Democrat asking for the black vote!

 

some posters are so out there that one can only smile and slowly back away.

 

What exclusionary tactics? I always hear this but never hear any backup?

It was the GOP that saves SSDI, not the Marxist Democrats. There are many minority paraplegics and quadraplegics. It was Reagan and the Republicans that saved SS back in the 80's. Lots of minorities get Soc Sec. It was Republicans that passed the Civil Rights act, not the Democrats. It is the GOP that is passing right-to-work laws in several states, which mean minorities don't *have* to become union members in order to get work. Closed shops were an invention of the Marxist Democrats to keep blacks migrating north for work from actually getting jobs.

The Marxist Democrats were willing to let SSDI die. The Marxist Democrats are wiling to let Medicare die in 2028. The Marxist Democrats are willing to let Soc Sec die a few years later. The Marxist Dems want to turn Medicaid into a financial bubble just like they did in the housing sector - and the very same thing will happen. It will blow out and create a major problem for society and the economy.

All of these will have a huge deletorius impact on minorities and the Marxist Democrats simply don't care.

 

In a probably wasted effort to pop you out of your ignorance,you should know that LBJ, one of our presidents, from the 60's, got passed a civil rights bill. Ever since racists having been accumulating in the Repunlican Party.

You might also pay attention to what your comrades are saying. In terms of making disparaging comments about blacks, conservatives lead liberals by at least a thousand to one.

 

.

Apparently someone gets their information, including their history lessons off of a right-wing propaganda site. Alternatively you could check one of these really cool places that they call libraries. At these libraries they have thousands of books that just about anyone can borrow. They have whole sections on history, many of the books having been written prior to the current Republican practice of making up whatever sounds good. There you can read the truth about what you are so in error over.

 

The popular vote is meaningless when it comes to the President. Trump won the vast majority of the country. That is what is important.

 

Why do you think LBJ signed the bill passed by the GOP.

 

In other words you don't have a single thing of import to offer in refutation of what I said.

All you have to offer is argumentative fallacies. These being Argument by Dismissal and Poisoning the Well.

WHY DO THE MARXIST DEMOCRATS ON THIS FORUM ALWAYS RESORT TO ARGUMENTATIVE FALLACIES?

If you have nothing to offer why don't you just say so? Or, better yet, just say nothing!

 

For me as an outsider it is more disturbing than that

It is about demonisation of a group of people.

Look at this board and the constraint cry of "******* snowflakes" and worse a never ending stream of hyperbolic outrage over minutiae. Someone somewhere passes wind in an elevator and suddenly it is the fault of everyone who does not ardently support every bloviated utterance of the Child in Chief

This is not about politics - politics should be about the issues and who will resolve them adequately

This is about painting one group as so vile and hated that few will admit to associating with it

 

Case in point

 

Well...

https://thinkprogress.org/pennsylva...nna-allow-governor-romney-to-win-52abae23b772

"Voter ID, which is gonna allow Governor Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania, done.”

Yep, yours.

Voting ID
Closing early voting
Laws that threaten prison for helping a person register.

That's all you.

Hard to see why you'd think Black people would vote Republican.

 

You mean like the painting of Rep Scalise?

 

What I meant was, in general, the Republicans are seen as the white majority party. Given that they won a couple elections, they've definitely garnered some more support recently.

 

It's more than just a couple of elections. They have taken over 1000 state legislative seats from the liberals. That indicates a big shift in GOP support.

 

With Democrats spinning EVERYTHING as an affront to blacks, its not hard to see why blacks would vote Democrat. Who told you that I thought that blacks would vote Republican?

Its funny that you are posting this, presumably because you are trying to make the case that Democrats don't play identity politics. Like I said to another poster, you remind me of a 2 yr old denying that they got into their mothers makeup drawer WHILE they have lipstick smeared all over their face.

 

You can claim that the facts amount to a "smear" but in my world the facts amount to nothing more than the facts.

Perhaps you should take a look at your company. The KKK, White Supremacist groups, Nazis, Confederate groups., DAR, not to mention the President's Chief of Staff, among others all clearly racist and all overwhelmingly voting Republican.

Your actions and the people you associate with tell far more about why people of color overwhelmingly vote Democratic than all the whining you could ever do.

 

Not sure if serious...or satire....

Democrats don't even deny their identity politics, FYI.

 

This is a shining example of Identity Politics in all its splendor.

 

Perhaps it's about economics and policies that HELP folks on the lower end of the economic ladder...ya think?

 

That's because they have no real battles to fight. They're still raking over the coals of 20thC fires, looking for embers that aren't there.

And they have no real battles because Ivory Tower dwellers never do. That's the point.

 

Please. Explaining why Black people won't vote for Republicans is not "Identity Politics," Complaining about it is "Identity Politics."

 

College students (and staff) REGULARLY exclude conservatives. California is now forbidding State employees from travelling to conservative states. Social media indulges in innumerable instances of exclusion of conservatives. I could go on.

 

Good for them. I exclude extremist, racist, ignorant, right wing yahoo dicks who masquerade as conservatives, too.

 

The right is obsessed with white, straight, christian males............

 

What percentage of blacks should vote something other than Democrat <Rule 3>?
