That's disgusting racism. And it's commonplace now.

2020-02-17 16:39:17 UTC  

Talk about actual policy, and things that can still improve within our own party, which is plenty. Then we can start judging them.

2020-02-17 16:39:33 UTC  

Such as?

2020-02-17 16:40:30 UTC  

I'm curious what problems you think "our" party has, considering I don't affiliate with any particular party.

2020-02-17 16:41:00 UTC  

If you mean the republican party, then by all means

2020-02-17 16:41:06 UTC  

Lay out what you think is wrong

2020-02-17 16:41:24 UTC  

What policy do you disagree with?

2020-02-17 16:41:30 UTC  

And we'll talk about it

2020-02-17 16:45:12 UTC  

@mrbigman >there's bad views on both sides

2020-02-17 16:45:20 UTC  

While true, the false equivocation gets us nowhere

2020-02-17 16:45:36 UTC  

Nor does pretending that opposing viewpoints always have equal validity or worth

2020-02-17 16:45:48 UTC  

That's half of what got us into the shitty state of things we're in

2020-02-17 16:46:02 UTC  

Pretending or even entertaining the idea that all cultures have something worthwhile to offer

2020-02-17 16:46:15 UTC  

That all viewpoints have some kind of fact to them

2020-02-17 16:46:46 UTC  

It's the same participatory achievement mindset that tells us absolutely everyone is special and amazing and destined for something great

2020-02-17 16:46:56 UTC  

We're not.

2020-02-17 16:47:52 UTC  

False equivocation and the concept that everything possesses some great worth in the balance of things is one of the most erroneous and odious set of bullshit first principles we can adopt when looking at something.

2020-02-17 16:48:43 UTC  

It implies that there can't be value judgements made, and that such a degree of moral relativism exists that anything can be justified.

2020-02-17 16:49:03 UTC  

Or that we're supposed to view some minor thing as equally abhorrent as a much worse one.

2020-02-17 16:50:05 UTC  

Fuck outta here with that shit. It's a mindset tailor-made for people who are either unable or unwilling to form judgements about the world around them.

2020-02-17 16:53:59 UTC  

Or are you just concern trolling?

2020-02-17 16:54:06 UTC  

Because that's what it currently looks like.

2020-02-17 16:54:25 UTC  

No, I'm working. That's a silly comment.

2020-02-17 17:00:28 UTC  

You'd think a lefty troll would be able to come up with one republican policy they don't like

2020-02-17 17:35:30 UTC  

@mrbigman are you lying on purpose or?

2020-02-17 17:36:31 UTC  

What happened ...

2020-02-17 17:36:53 UTC  

Just run of the mill concern troll

2020-02-17 17:42:52 UTC  

Noice

"More in U.S. Say They Are Better Off Than in Past Elections"
> 61% say they are better off than three years ago
> No more than 50% have said this in past election cycles
> Evaluations of U.S. world standing mostly similar to past elections

> Relatedly, 52% of U.S. adults say it is easier for them to "go and buy things in the stores" than it was three years ago, higher than in the 1992, 1996 and 2004 election cycles, when the figures were closer to 40%.
> Sixty-two percent give Trump a great deal or fair amount of credit for improvement in the state of the economy in the past few years -- more than the 51% giving former President Barack Obama the same level of credit.

I've seen many ex-Yang Gangers say that Andrew Yang understands that the left creates fake news. Well, turns out they were wrong. Yang now works for CNN as a political commentator.

2020-02-20 03:44:27 UTC
