Bernie Sanders owns Donald Trump using Trump's own words against him

[ttystikk]

We should stop defining people as "75% white, 12% Martian and 13% Native-Latino-Indian".

We're all fucking Americans, quit the Tribalism bullshit.

Yes, but no;

Yes, stop prejudging people based on a name or a skin color or an accent.

NO, don't ignore that everyone has a cultural heritage, and that they have a right to be proud of it- as long as it isn't biased against others.

People could learn a lot from one another.

I find it to be a bit pointless to be proud of something you never achieved or even helped achieve yourself.

Your disdain for culture and a connection to where you've come from isn't shared by everyone.

I celebrate (aspects of) my parents and their lineage. Same concept. I also wonder about the orchard employee that fathered my sister nearly 60 years ago....

jews tend to celebrate their heritage because they've been persecuted for millenia and still managed to survive.

i don't see much reason why whites should do the same, since they were the ones doing the persecution.

 

[schuylaar]

@schuylaar your words care to explain this bigot shit ?

I was talking about an HBO documentary. I can see how you think I was being harsh but it wasn't meant that way. It's all in how you read it. Could I gave been more PC? Sure.

You don't have to like everybody, but it would be good to get along.

 

[schuylaar]

no we talking Lequishas resume is going straight in trash based on name.
@schuylaar for shame shame shame.

No. You're being dramatic. I didn't make up or invent this concept.

We're all just homo sapiens, the more you travel the more it becomes blindingly obvious.

That's a bit overgeneralized/narrow minded.

from the crusades to colonialism to slavery to segregation, white people have done nothing but persecute non-whites.

any examples to the contrary are the exception.

You don't say?

See above.

Hogwash. Caucasoids might very well be at the very 'top' of the inhumanity/sadism heap, but people in general have been shitting on each other since day one.

In a perfect world, yes. So much easier said than done.

Agreed.

I come as close to that perfect world as THIS world will let me.

We don't have to 'twist' shit.

You've plainly admitted you're biased as fuck and then tried to justify it.

Fuck you and the heritage/ghetto pass bullshit you rode in on.

You're a disgrace to everyone who has ever fought for a free, fair and equitable America.

Crawl back into your hole or admit that you're part of the problem.

Personally, I don't think you have the balls to admit you're the asshole.

You told me to admit it if it's true and I did. I don't have a problem here. I simply see a way to minimize it and believe strongly that it should be common sense.

I didn't ride a ghetto or race card in here. It came up as I was trying to defend my point when someone made a personal attack at my experience in life. At no point did I say that I personally have a problem with names I perceive as stupid. I simply belive they are stupid because the create rifts. I used plenty of logical examples.

Do I judge people based on how they promote themselves? Yes. Do I personally use those judgements to create rifts? I try not to, but it happens.

I'm sorry if my opinions based on the facts offend people. That was not my intention.

Oh, and yes, I am an asshole. However I did not come in here trying to be one. I'm also not the only one here.

names don't create rifts. rifts are created by how racist assholes react to names.
