illcendiary posted:People fear change. People want things to be the way things were when they were younger. For the current aging population, this includes a whiter America (which is where I imagine the bulk of the hatred comes from). It's not like they'll ever see the immigrants though, because none of the immigrants want to live in a south Florida shithole where the average age is 20 years older than dirt.

One of the state/local newspapers publishers that endorsed Clinton after not endorsing a Democrat for like 100 years is posting about the threats they receive at just about every level of their newsroom.Mi Ai Parrish posted:To those of you who have called us hacks and losers with no purpose, and that we are un-American, I give you Dennis. He is the investigative reporter who first revealed the despicable mistreatment of our veterans at the VA hospital. His work triggered comprehensive debate and, one hopes, lasting change. He and others on his team have been hailed as heroes by veterans’ families across the country. Dennis knows that free speech is sometimes the only way to hold the powerful accountable.

Who is that guy? Well you see, General Flynn came to him, naked, in a dream, and laid out the Trump campaign's strategy for victory, but it required special poll analysis that only he could provide. Also, that analysis would work better with a bunch of photos of Hillary, Obama, Larry Sinclair, Rev. Wright and Malcolm X pinned to a cork board and connected by colored string.

PT6A posted:Out of curiosity, what makes old people so goddamn racist fearful of everything? I saw an interview CNN was doing of some wrinkled old white pieces of poo poo in Florida, and they were uniformly acting like increasing the amount of legal immigration was somehow going to be deeply harmful to the US. Where did this idea come from? Immigrants tend to be educated and economically successful. I can understand being afraid of their impact on the labour market, even if I don't think it's a good argument for shutting the border, but why would you be scared of that if you're already retired? Tax paying legal immigrants are the only way the government can afford to keep sending you money, you ancient, befuddled halfwits! Quoting myself from a few pages back, but it fits pretty nicely with your question. I can't speak for the entire country but this is the reality of where I live. Mahoning posted:I think a lot of it is perception. Youngstown was a growing, booming city until the early 70's. So that is the bar for them, they want to go back to that. But it's impossible. Tons of homes within the city limits have been torn down because there's just simply not enough people to live in them. These were white neighborhoods 40 and 50 years ago. They're black neighborhoods now (and poor, and in disrepair) and so you see where this racism stems from (Look at what THE BLACKS did to my old neighborhood!)

The only people who have the proper franchise to vote tend to be the rich and or retired, having the free time to not work. This also happens to be the group that has the most time to navel gaze about mortality. Perhaps our electorate is not rational.

iospace posted:Why bother when he says disqualifying things? The arrogance and lack of self-awareness of the Republicans has been on full display this entire year. They had no idea that the views and actions that they and their propaganda media wing spewed could possibly ever come back to bite them when someone louder, ruder, and dumber hijacked the rubes they relied on for so long. Even when Trump called for their heads if they failed to kneel, they still thought they were in control. Now all of Trump's crimes are coming to light and they are being dragged down with him.

Another friend linked an article that actually linked to emails and stuff, and I read through a decent chunk of the "damning emails". ... such a giant crock of poo poo, I don't even know where to start. The only truly damning stuff isn't even linked to, they just again list it as a bullet point with no link. I'm done with this poo poo, which is sad, because maybe there is stuff to be had in a future email. But, probably not. So gently caress 'em.

White America has gone so insane that doing nothing but reject a hollow gesture to suggest authorities not murder people based on skin color is treated as the highest offense even if they failed to notice it for months on end. Martha Stewart Undying posted:It's not an age thing. It's a white identity thing. Millennial whites are more-or-less as racist as their parents, they just don't buy the overt racism trump is spewing because that's gauche. The only reason Millennials as a whole are seen as more tolerant and liberal is that we have too much cultural diversity to be as openly hateful as the Baby Boomers.

If the best option you have to stop a large portion of your country from feeling scared, alienated, and like their government doesn't listen to them is to actually remove any ability they have to participate in that government, you aren't going to fix the problem. In fact, that's a really good way to ensure that our own brand of far right nationalism is here to stay instead of a blip that we can all forget about later.
