Well. That didn't take long.
Well. That didn't take long.
And under the bus he goes.
"Centrist" aka "I'll still vote for racist fascist misogynists instead of anyone else". Fuck off!
P.S. And he thinks welfare is a problem like some blubbering Reganite reject.
Really, I think centrist normally just means totally uninformed. They've buried their head in the sand so they don't realize what's wrong.
Centrist means you’re too embarrassed to admit you’re a republican.
Lol you must be one of those vote blue no matter who types. You're anyone else is always a dem isn't it? And if someone votes anything else than blue or red, they're throwing away their vote right?
And if someone votes anything else than blue or red, they’re throwing away their vote right?
As long as the US election system is the way that it is, then yes it is an undisputed fact that voting for third party is the same as throwing your vote away. It is a shitty system and it is in desperate need for a change, but it doesn't make it less true.
I'm pretty sure this guy is not a Democrat just because he talks about diversity. I don't know many anti-welfare Democrats who talk about fat welfare queens. That's pretty antithetical to the sort of things the party wants and very on-point for Republicans.
Oh! You're one of today's ten thousand!
Watch this. It's quick and easy to process: https://youtu.be/s7tWHJfhiyo?si=fE3OK2xU51bvXyWx
You must be one of those idiots that make baseless assumptions.
When did he say he votes republican? And I think his criticism of welfare is that it's run inefficiently, not that it should be abolished
The distinguishing mark of so-called "conservatives" in the US is not, in fact, conservatism — that is, a desire to cherish and protect the good in their society.
Rather, it is betrayal.
They are not conservatives, but rather traitors — betrayers. They betray their faith, placing Trump ahead of Jesus. They betray their country, placing Putin ahead of Washington. They betray their species, placing oil companies ahead of humanity.
Conservatism can only be redeemed by embracing the actual good of our actual society. You can only conserve that which really exists. That includes the "melting pot" of multiculturalism.
It would be cool if they were all about conserving wildlife, natural features, forests, clean air, and clean water. Or the rights to vote and have privacy.
But no, they just want to conserve the power of a small group at the expense of everyone else.
News sites need to start using screenshots of tweets. That article is mostly empty space with some @s in it for me.
I just assumed my ad blocker was doing its job. Weird formatting, if not.
I feel that’s every internet article in today’s news dystopia. Clickbait headlong, taking you to a site that gives your device more cancer than a Gawker media site, where the actual tweet doesn’t even load.
or just the text of the tweet...we don't need to drive any more focus/attention back to twitter.
That website is absolute cancer on a mobile device
I use an ad blocker and the empty space between information (presumably where ads should be) is hilariously large
Just use Firefox and ublock, friend.
The ads work pretty well. That's the point right? The ads?
All these people know is hate.
They can only support "their own" for so long before they start directing their hate and rage at each other.
Cycles keep spinning.
They’d like him better if they knew he fucked an ostrich. Bunch of fuckin’ degens.
ALLEGEDLYS!
I heard it was a sick ostrich
"We are the melting pot of the world and that's what makes us strong our diversity. And we need to learn to harness that and appreciate it and not use it as a political tool to keep everyone separate from it.”
Conservatives: No, that's exactly the tool we've been talking about.
It's saddening and hurtful that overt racism is accepted and trendy in The United States of America. I genuinely don't understand how the most foundational core component of this country is lost on so many people. The US was founded to escape persecution and oppression (as it persecuted and oppressed the natives and later did the same with "imported labor"). Oh, yeah... I guess hypocrisy and contradiction is right there within the core too.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal"
But only the white ones who own property. The rest are scum who aren't allowed to vote. And don't even get me started on the non-whites. /s
This article is garbage, here's "thing someone said" + random twitter comments about it. So one, it spreads the toxic original message of hate from rando idiot conservatives toward the idea of diversity and a melting pot. Then two, it makes us liberals broadly associate all conservatives with the hate message from rando twitter accounts. Imo this is garbage "journalism". If prominent conservative thought leaders are commenting about something on twitter it could be newsworthy, but you probably know that it's probably not when they include users such as "TriangleCyclops", "DPZCrypto", "BoxingMD1", etc. Yep those 3-4 tweets must represent literally millions of people's exact thoughts.
Do beards prevent leopards from eating your face?

The funny thing is that "melting pot" is generally a conservative term, often used to deny the value of diversity.
No, it is not.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_pot
Now, the conservatives you know might say it with a sneer, but that's a whole different question.
A melting pot is a monocultural metaphor for a heterogeneous society becoming more homogeneous, the different elements "melting together" with a common culture
Yes, as opposed to moving towards a diverse, multicultural, heterogeneous society, isn't it?
"Melting pot" is a reduction of diversity.
Maybe I should correct my statement to "generally used by conservatives," instead of saying it's specifically a conservative term.
Finally a song that captures our thoughts and perspective and how we really feel!
(the song is complete fucking garbage)
Good for him! Fuck the haters
Don't went #1 on Billboard Wtf, song is so mid
