Iamgoofball posted:i get that, and it's definitely a good thing to keep on top of because racism and appropriation is bad for obvious loving reasons, but the left eating itself over it is counter-productive, especially when it's pretty clearly in the GOP's best interests for us to eat ourselves over it "We've got capitalism to kill" he says while defending Elizabeth "capitalist to my bones" Warren. Also "let's just ignore racism and appropriation when it's someone on team D that's doing it because Trump" is a pretty horrible take, hth.

However, even equitably funded public schools would still be segregated, simply due to the fact that American cities are already insanely segregated. Busing would still be necessary.

Groovelord Neato posted:you couldn't even do busing anymore because americans are more segregated than ever. Yep. The suburban school districts are the bussing-proofing white people created rather than have "those people" in their kids' schools. EDIT: My daughter can choose to bus to any of 15+ city schools... all of which are "majority minority" and have 50%+ of kids living below the poverty line. The district 2 miles from us is one of the best in the country and is 98% white (they seem to be okay with doctors of Indian descent there) Lumpy fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Jul 9, 2019 |

How are u posted:I mean yes I am all for a complete re-do of how we fund our public schools, god knows it is a travesty as it is. However, even equitably funded public schools would still be segregated, simply due to the fact that American cities are already insanely segregated. Busing would still be necessary. Also equitable funding starting now would still be massively disproportionate to need because historically underfunded areas need more help to catch up to baseline.

Not to mention jobs that aren't poo poo/pay a living wage, a union to enforce labor protections that supposedly keep your boss from firing you for the color of your skin, banks not denying you a loan because of tl;dr Shear Modulus posted:desegregate the country

I know you're the current thread target idiot but since you brought this up again let me say this again: NO CANDIDATE RUNNING AS A DEMOCRAT IN THE PRIMARY HAS ANY SUCH PLAN. None. Nope, not even Bernie. I'm glad we had this little chat. Trabisnikof posted:I gather you haven't been following Steyer for long. It wasn't a "bait and switch lie trap" he just constantly decides he has to Do Something then proceeds to get owned. Yes I have. I live in CA. The "bait and switch" was the idea he really, really only cared about Impeachment For The Good Of The Nation, everyone! Really, this isn't about me! ....Btw I'm now asking for your vote. That trap.

That doesn't sound like a trap at all. Like do you think it was a "trap" all the other times he ran for office or declared he was spending big bucks on some issue? By that standard every single other candidate engaged in the "trap" of discussing an important issue before announcing their candidacy. Dude's going to get owned and I don't see how supporting Impeachment is some sort of trickery.
