and pretending that twitter is america

I think Donald will win again

And that the overall polling will be accurate again

twitter gets more detached from reality every day

I think the dems will pull themselves together after primaries but I think Trump will win still

which means Donald needs only to be 3% behind the Dem candidate to win.

Any higher and it gets closer to a wipeout.

guardian headline 2021
"How trading with the USA exposes parallels with Britain's racist history during the transatlantic slave trade." ~ Some nonce probably

@Mokou lol. I mean I don't think so, they didn't last time and this time the primaries are even messier.

But the dems will make for good entertainment whatever they do.

did you read that bbc article about the black history play thing?

They did, to a large degree. The machinery filed into line

even they were saying the british empire did some incredible things to end slavery

Oh sure.

But underneath that the party was tearing itself apart.

it didn't work for them in the end, but they did unite as far as the organs of power go

by they I mean the black people running this play

That is

good to hear

i hope it's real

I think that if Warren gets the nomination then Trump wins

Warren will not get the nom

If Sanders gets it Trump probably win.

If Biden gets it I think Biden might pip it.

I'm pretty sure Biden will get it

Thing is

but it was a bit.. "muh slaves were all black" ... as usual completely ignoring white slaves.. but meh... some acknowledgements at least

Sanders is a better campaigner and will give Trump more of a fight but he simply isn't in line with normal Americans outside deep blue states.

Biden is more in line with you're average american but Trump can run circles around him.

I can deal with that, the vast majority were indeed black in the time period they refer to.

as usual thinking of it as a black white thing rather than a africa british empire thing

I dunno I feel like the Dems are doomed.

Ok the racial dimension is dumb but I don't think you're ever going to talk them out of it

It's not even an Africa/Empire thing, it's more like Rich and poor who happen to live in very weak states that don't protect them

They either get a semi-competant candidate who isn't going to win the average american or they get an incompetant candidate who is able to win the average american but is as we said incompetant.

there were plenty of irish slaves ... the only reason there werent any english slaves (at least in the empire) was because of a law passed in 1102 banning slavery of englishmen

Leohte coming in with the race dynamics.

The british empire is important because it extolls British martial power

obviously there were many english slaves over the years... in scandenavia and the ottoman empire

Not because it "ended slavery"

and Ireland :^]
