2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
You are just such a disingenuous hack dude. She said that as a response to talking about how illegal immigrants are taking “black jobs”.
Michelle Obama’s speech wasn’t that great for me because she has no policy expertise and it clearly shows, just like Doug’s speech, but that’s such a disingenuous attack dude.
Illegal immigrants and in general unskilled immigrants DO take uneducated native jobs, it's uncontroversial in literature. They take them and/or decrease the wages in those sectors that can use a lot of that kind of labour.
It's true for all ethnicities but more often for blacks because they are less educated on average. And that's a way to try to tell black people that deportion of illegals help them. And it's actually true, it's people with different jobs that lose out if mass deportations happen, not uneducated blacks.
A response can be to educate blacks more, or to create conditions for so many jobs to exist that it doesn't matter if immigrants take a portion of them and so on. Her response was "let's try to stir racial animous even more". And coming from a person who unapologetically defended BLM riots, it's not nice. Let me remember that she invented the "mostly peaceful" insanity to describe the riots.
We don't have much data but, presumably, shouldn't Harris father come from decent money just because he was able to study in London and then at Berkley being Jamaican? how does a 20 y old Jamaican in 1958 manage to get to study in London without very significant for the time (ie top5% at the very least in Jamaica) family money? maybe there were free programs or something i am not aware about
There's an incredible free program called "being a teaching/research assistant" that many 20-something grad students avail themselves of.
Do you think everyone with a Ph.D. came from inherited wealth? Why the skepticism?
That's what closed cans are like.
You have some of the worst all time takes in basically every thread in this forum, but claiming that smoking doesn’t cause massive public health problems has to be top (bottom?) five.
I took a train this summer in italy and every stop i went to the little stairs to vape and that was it. People working on the train did the same, as well as others on the train (to vape or smoke).
Once in the 6 occasion a karen told me to actually step out, staying on the stairs while puffing toward the exterior wasn't enough. That was the extent of the rule enforcement. Ofc the next time karen wasn't there and i was back on the stairs (too hot outside, train had AC).
That's just an example but it
You should have to cite this racist BS claim or take a timeout
Michelle in the same speech said that Trump isn't qualified for the job of president because that's a black job now.
I am actually outraged at the way she racializes everything.
And this happens the same day Obama has a very moderate and reasonable message, that doesn't spare criticism to Trump, but does so in a dignified manner, so it's not like she had to do this
Racist BS yes. By Michelle
jfc man, get a sense of humour.
The Colonel is being intentionally obtuse again.
It's a lot easier to keep tabs on a couple dozen loonies.

1. you're getting mad at jokes now?

Serious question because I don't know the data on this... but how many Republicans come from a community organizer background? Or from public service job of any kind outside military enlistment?
It seems like this should be an important point for Rural American Republicans, no? How will people represent you properly, if they come from inherited wealth, Ivy League educations, or groomed think tanks?

Calling it a Black Job is r*tarded and racist. At best it’s horrible optically and rhetorically, at worst it’s maliciously racist.
By that logic legal immigrants take White and Asian jobs because they are the most educated. News flash, separating job types by race is racist as f*ck it doesn’t take a genius to understand this.
By the way that thing at the end is wrong too. The PROTESTS were mostly peaceful. Yes the riots were dumb and anyone unwilling to condemn the violence is an idiot, but let’s not rewrite history here.

They trust their local republicans who are from their same stock and vouch for the elites
So Republican voters trust "local republicans" (even though they have the most reps that are out of district between the two parties), assuming their goals align w/ the elites they have nothing in common with?
Hmmm... And Republican voters trust these people to represent them, but they don't trust government on the whole?
How does any of that make sense to you? Seriously curious.

By the same logic some people attack h1B visas from taking white and Asian jobs yes.
It's not racism to identify that some policies affect some ethnicities more than others ffs.
Democrats do it ALL THE TIMES
