Man, I can't believe Trump is still talking about that loving Mexican border wall. I just over heard his most recent speech and it's still apparently thing he actually wants to do. I thought that talking point was quietly dropped because it's a completely irrational and unfeasible thing to do, but he's STILL ranting about it and it honestly kind of blows my mind.

Admiral Ray posted:Obama is right; America is doing better socially than it ever has. Okay. Cool. I agree with that. And? And? Well, a lot of things follow from that. For example, it's a cause to celebrate, and reinforce, what has brought us here. Realize the road we're on, how far we've come, and that we should keep on traveling - go further - it as it seems to be working. And of course, complain whenever people argue we can stop, or should revert. thetoughestbean posted:What's interesting to me (and I agree with this country being founded on racism and genocide) is how little I hear about how it wasn't exactly the Americans who first came in, started slavery, and in general, hosed everything up. Columbus was an Italian working for the Spanish, African slaves were first brought by the Spanish, what would become America was colonized and ruled by the Spanish, French, and English.

I'm trying to convince you that you shouldn't discard symbols because facts are less important than narrative in achieving any kind of cultural change, rightwards or leftwards. Trying to convince a black person that their perspective on something is wrong, through patronising language and calling them out for getting angry at racist bullshit ... is racist. Since you kinda asked.

Mel Mudkiper posted:I want Bruce Springsteen to invite Christie live on stage and then call him a worthless piece of trash and encourage the fans to throw fruit at him On The Majority Report they've mentioned several times their fantasy is for Bruce Springsteen to be deputized and to be the one to actually arrest Christie when the time comes.

Squeegy posted:While I think your issue with the symbol is legitimate I don't agree with you trying to take away the comfort that it brings others for whom its message resonates. That's where this argument started, not from a self-congratulatory poo poo White People Say place. Once again, I wasn't trying to take away poo poo. Someone saying "hey that thing you think is so nice and awesome isn't viewed that way by some people of x group for y reason" doesn't mean it supercedes your feelings. The fact that a bunch of goony white fucks got so angry that a black person doesn't view their symbol of hope and freedom in the same light is indicative of the fact that THEY want me to change my opinion to the default white one and were dogpiling me for daring to step out of line and call out some poo poo. Seems like a whole bunch of white people cannot handle the fact that its their actions and the actions of their forefathers that causes other people to not revere their symbols of circlejerk, and they absolutely cannot let that stand, but they also absolutely don't want to be better, so they lash out at those who call them out on their bullshit.

Honestly I can't think of many right wingers that praise the Statue. They mostly just don't talk about it, forget it exists, or deflect when it's brought up. This is to say nothing of the fact that, in the bolded, I honestly can't tell who you're talking about. Northerners? Southerners? Californians? New Yorkers? Who, exactly, is this vague personified America you're railing against and how does it work? It sounds like you subscribe to some weird version of the Great Man view of history where nations operate according to the whims of a single mind.

Sorry friend, but you don't get to play that game when I've repeatedly acknowledged we're both working from the same set of assumptions regarding what historical fact actually is. This isn't about perspective being wrong. He's correct about events. It's about where do we go from there.

It's funny how Comey gave himself just enough rope to hang himself with. Now that he's pulled a totally partisan move that's seemingly universally loathed, Hillary can (and is) turning the narrative that the FBI was unfairly targeting her all together (or at least close to it).

Your response to the guy who posted about how he was homeless once and the statue's words about the Mother of Exiles and taking in the homeless meant so much to him was "It's a white woman welcoming other white people to a country they stole. What's inspirational about that?" (slightly paraphrased) Regardless of what other people have said to you in response, I don't see how you can claim that that wasn't an attempt to put a damper on his appreciation for the symbol.

I live in the deep south so I'm constantly surrounded by people with racist beliefs. I'm more interested in changing hearts and minds because it's not like they wake up in the morning and think "gently caress black people" (mostly anyway, the KKK exist so obviously some do), they simply live in an echo chamber and are working from a false set of base assumptions about economics and history. So I have to find ways to argue against that.
