They do the same thing to working class people. The working class is interpreted by them as white, even though a higher percentage of Blacks and Latinos work in low-wage blue-collar work.

at dinner last night I may have convinced my aunt that liberal interventionism is bad, but she only agreed with that because she's convinced that Muslims are completely alien to us, they hate all of our values, and we can't build democracy over there because we can't ever understand those people and we just need to keep them away from us

does that count as progress?

maybe she'd be a fan of Tulsi

The Overton window shifted pretty far on the right; the Iraq War is the biggest reason McCain lost in '08 but then in 2016 you had Ted Cruz vowing to carbet-bomb the entire Mideast as a selling point during primary debates

Fringe views are less fringey if the RWM keeps spouting them over and over for a decade

Oh yeah just look no further than how they've all managed to make unions all racist because of the hardhat riot. So now all unions are right wing regardless of the actual history or membership that isn't homogenous politically

It's hard for your average American to not have some bias against "Muslims" when both parties have vilified all the major Middle Eastern countries for the past 20 years.

Aside from the typical right-wing hate that Iraqis and Afghanis receive, Democrats have told us that Iran, Syria, and Hezbollah hate us and want to destroy our way of life.

(Also, plenty of Muslims do rightfully hate us, just not because of the freedom stuff)

I enjoy that the democratic party's rhetoric around bigotry towards muslims was essentially "we should actually be nice, because they can help us kill other muslims that are actually bad."

The "Running on C.P. time" "joke" with Clinton was pretty loving awful.

But otherwise he's fine I guess.

At the time of the election, I though Weiner was a better option for the working class in the city but yeah, bullet dodged.

This, among dozens of other things, is a reason people don't understand the party.

They have no cohesive message or policy on Islamism. Obama did well in trying to explain to people that terrorism isn't a Muslim thing, but then went on to bomb the poo poo out of innocent Muslim people. Democrats tell us that Muslim-Americans are good Americans, and then label their countries of origin as sponsors of terror.

It's a losing position and the hard-line Republicans will always win because the ball is in their court.

This is an utterly foul cartoon, from the framing of preventing atrocities like gas attacks as "killing brown people" to the implication that Trump groping women isn't seriously evil. gently caress, even if Trump is killing brown people for no reason (and, to be fair to the cartoonist, he probably is, but the thing he's referring to in this comic, based on the talking points, is the airfield bombing in Syria, which isn't even killing anyone, let alone for no reason), that'd be better than him groping women; most presidents have killed brown people for no reason, but none of them have, AFAIK, violated women's boundaries before (except for Thomas Jefferson, I guess, but no one knew that at the time). War is lovely, but it's always been lovely; meanwhile, Trump is turning back women's rights to a time before our country's foundation, when they couldn't even vote. And this cartoon is just helping him right along by literally portraying his victims as inanimate objects.

I wish we were getting lovely hot take cartoons about Hillary instead of Trump. :smith:
