Miasfirstime,
The misogyny in some posters can rival their racism and the two converge in the criticism of Harris.
I’d say women rarely post here. It’s too much the home of a repulsive toxic masculinity in content and tone.
The homophobic insults are directed at posters more than political figures.
The most racist, misogynist and homophobic also ally themselves most
with God, but you will almost never see anyone professing to be a Christian in here call them out for any of this stuff.
@HFT
Please don't lower yourself in the pig shit that Hump thrives in. No woman should be talked about like that .... ever. I'm really surprised that the women in the Forum don't call the men out ......... but perhaps its all guys in this Forum.
And yes, Chambers was in "Behind the Green Door".
Did Harris get the coof after meeting with the Texas Democrats that bailed on their responsibilities ! 3 of them tested + .
Hump, did they do a complete check up? She does five guys at a time. Airtight and one in each hand, blisters on her palms, for a total of five. Like in the movie ". Behind the Green Door" Was that Marylyn Chambers played the part?
Good luck with that. There are systems in places to handle such things. Just ask the 63 judges who ruled against Dear Leader.
YES, We are printing our own ballots and plan on submitting them on election day as the Democrats did in 2020.
You two running for office?
"An idiot giving an idiot civics class." The way the Democrats are running our Country the IDIOTS will take over.
@Sapp.We know you think you know everything.Maybe you do.But first the bullshit you believe you know is bull shit.Also you claim your a atheist well that ought to tell everyone here your head is fucked up.Hell is waiting for you and all your knowledge
Ps Cumwatch,
To keep up with current events I subscribe to LA Times, Washington Post, NY Times, The Atlantic, The New Yorker, the New York Review of Books.
To read stuff from a wider range of perspectives, I like checking out each day the range of essays collected on Real Clear Politics as they include many sources from the right or essays from WSJ, Washington Times, The National Review, etc.
Do you have a favorite website that keeps you informed? What is it? Do you read any essays or research from left wing sources?
Slavery, racism, slavery, racism. Dude relax. It's too god damn much. I don't dislike you, I can't take your BS posts anymore. We heard you ! You like to read and lecture !
Cumwatch,
I embrace your call to do research. I love researching and studying stuff about American politics, history and culture and studying other topics too such as in the sciences and world literature.
PLEASE share with me or educate me about your favorite sources for the research you do and the topics you love to research.
I’d love to check out what you recommend that you think could make me better informed or more informed on a favorite topic or subject of yours.
In turn, I will share with you my top 5 favorite sources for my own study and research into issues addressed in these forums and in threads I’ve started. I love for instance books by Garry Wills on Reagan and Nixon and Jefferson.
FYI: I wrote a 450 page book (published by a university press ) on American politics, history and culture. The last 50 pages are devoted to my footnotes to the evidence and sources and texts I used to write the book. I researched and wrote it over the course of 6 years. I daresay I did more research into American politics and history in those years than you’ve done in a lifetime. But prove me wrong. I’m just making an assumption.
Do you have some favorite books about American politics or favorite writers on this topics? I have lots of them.
Neither you nor Flip have much of an actual clue about what I read and what I research. I have 7,000 books in my home. I’ll post a photo of my long , very well endowed bookcases in SLS gallery if you desire. I will also post a photo there of my “Free Little Library” in the front yard of my home where I stock a little library of 50-75 books for adults and kids that they can take for free.
I like doing research by reading books and not just checking websites and reading newspaper and magazines.
Flip: I read and research stuff from many points of view. I’ve made a deep study of the pro-slavery and pro-segregation arguments in American history and given much attention to speeches and essays and addresses by every president in my lifetime. One of my favorite collections of primary sources is entitled Fear of Conspiracy, edited by David Brion Davis, a history teacher I had. In college.
It provides primary source material on the long history of conspiracy fears on the part of both the far right and far left wings of this country. I love studying stuff from perspectives much different than my own
“ Bonnie, Impeach President Harris and Speaker of the House Trump becomes President.”
An idiot giving an idiot civics class.
WTF?
Sapp isn't researching a damn thing that doesn't go along with his crazy thinking. But tbh, most of us aren't either.
Bonnie, Impeach President Harris and Speaker of the House Trump becomes President. She will have the shortest term.
What if Joe doesn’t make it to 2024 ?
Read this morning Hoe Harris will be a one timer.Even her own party is seeing what a dumb hoe she is
@sapp-Do research, that's all I can say. It's very clear that you don't do enough research and that you don't explore all avenues of what's has been going on. Anywho @sapp enjoy your thoughts.
And alas Gandhi. You are still the most self righteous, pompous, and egotistical windbag here.
Ya see that. I can toss the word "alas" in there too.
2Outdoors,
Please feel welcome and encouraged to ignore all my posts
Let’s here more about your roofing and hunting experiences.
Note: Thanks in part to my marriage and family members (as well as my interest in history), racism is a very personal concern
Ps For someone critiquing self-righteousness, you certainly are highly judgmental and on a high horse in your attacks on me and another poster in
here. Carry on with your whining.
2muchfun,
I’ve tried finally to swear off addressing racism in direct posts to Hump, HFT and now JC555, as, yes, confronting it with them has done too much to exacerbate the problem.
Our culture addressing it at the national level through film and literature and music has been helpful.
Addressing it in our politics is necessary but more problematic. I think critiquing Trump for his racism made him double down on it as he and his advisors and pollsters saw it as a winning tactic.
The question yet to be answered is how much the GOP will pay for it among younger generations of voters, many of whom seem quite willing to reckon with historical racial injustice and its legacy.
I was delighted to see the statues of Robert E Lee and Stonewall Jackson in Charlottesville this past weekend. Protest over those statues has been beneficial, however much it provoked the earlier Unite the Right demonstration.
The Forum here does give me a chance to see the ugliness in a more personal way or to attach a screen name and personality to it.
I’d say no other topic has the same charge to it in here or in our politics.
Why is that?
It seems like keyboard activism has only exacerbated the issue in here.
Just my opinion. Carry on as you see fit.
2muchfun,
Silence in the face of racism is also a problem.
In these threads, sometimes I ignore the racism; sometimes I address it.
"Alas, critiquing it just seems to provoke it more."
You just correctly diagnosed the issue.
Who is the Gandhi ?
