i've always known that republicans were racist, but it wasn't until the 2012 election i realized just HOW racist they truly are. Rick Perry may seem like a joke nowadays, but during the primaries in 2011, the guy was a Republican god. He was governor of a red state whose economy was booming and supposed proof of Republican policies bringing forth prosperity, while also being very religious christian conservative. People who were disappointed with the field (especially with Romney) were ecstatic when Perry entered the race.

But all of the good will and star power he built up was completely obliterated when he said he he had no problem letting illegal immigrants go to public universities. The reaction from rightwing media and the base was quick and intense. His support absolutely cratered and he found himself at or near the bottom of the heap throughout the entire primary.


It was at that point that it really sinked in how vested in racial animus republicans truly were. Which is why i kind of feel like some of the mocking we do in threads like this is somewhat pointless. i mean, sure it's objectively hilarious to see republicans going bankrupt, losing their homes or dying. But all that seems to be besides the point. because the true destiny of republicans isn't so much to make their own lives better, but make their enemies lives worse. if they have to live on the streets eating from dumpsters, then so be it, as long as the muslins and blahs are right along side them

Republicans are the same people that don't want to see a minimum wage increase because they don't think people that work in fast food restaurants deserve to make as much as a garbage man. They literally don't want others to make more money because it makes them feel bad about only getting 15 an hour. Screw these people. I feel no sadness when bad things happen to right wingers. They deserve every horrible thing that comes to them because it is their shortsightedness and racial animus that is holding back progress and prosperity for all.

If i remember right, Trump did a lot better in maine than romney or mccain. Gonna be funny when all the young people fleeing flips it to a hard R.

Gonna be even funnier when R's realize they can gain territory this way, dont need to worry about demographic change when you just make states so hostile to non-chuds that they self-deport to one of the few "good" states.

We've screwed over lots of places around the world with brain drain, its about time we get to work really loving ourselves with it too.

I'd never root for an economic crash/recession based on my political leanings because I'm not a god damned sociopath, but it seems that one is most certainly coming. I keep finding myself hoping that it hits prior to next fall because if the economy craters in December 2020 after Warren wins the white house, these idiots (and most people) will blame democrats for it and we'll have to sweep up yet another republican mess while any policy initiatives will be hamstrung.

The New England way is to have the natives own obscenely profitable mega casinos that host concerts and stuff, and have them bleed us dry through those.

Add that to this quote:

quote:

Mary Jane Richards, chief operating officer at North Country Associates, said she has already raised wages four or five times in a bid to hire or retain staff.

“There are simply just not enough people to go around,” she said. “We try to elevate our wages, but then the nearest facility brings theirs up.”
Yeah, we keep raising our wages, like 4 or five times now, and somehow we're still only paying $11.25 an hour. It's like some kind of calculus problem, I dunno <wipes nose with $100 bill>

That long term elder care crisis is top-drawer boomer-death schadenfreude. Good news though, a small army of young central Americans literally just showed up at the southern border and are ready to work. They're desperate and will gladly accept minimum wage for grueling elder care jobs. They're just what America's over-taxed care system needs, and ...

I'll concur. I have threatened to kick his rear end and then throw him out of my house had he said another racial epithet in it. He dropped a casual n-bomb about how his new car speakers didnt have good bass and therefore wouldn't bump my "n-word music" when I took it to the store. I have no idea what was going through his mind that I'd have nothing to say about that poo poo. He lived with my wife and I for a bit and I got him a job a few years back working for my good friend who is black. I can only assume he thought I thought naked racism is acceptable now that trump is president?
