I don't get why the bernouts here are such shitstains. Not all Bernouts are like that, but for some reason, the 3 or 4 of them who are so outspoken on this site are just total white windbags who are either very uncomfortable talking about race and want the subject ignored, or have said some of the most racist shit I have seen here.

It's worth it to study because some bernouts are solid people, just those few die-hards here that are really making it so hard for me to support Bernard.

Waaaaaaaah

You have no points of your own, you just shit talk and smear.

Anything to distract the conversation from from the truth!

One ounce of gold under Nixon; $40

One ounce of gold today; $1276.30

That's 8% inflation compounded annually.

I'm not saying the sky is falling but the dollar absolutely doesn't buy what it used to.

It was a hundred and six dollars an ounce in 1973, fucking retard.lmao. Do you just make this shit up as you go, wittle sticks?

Edit: upon further investigation it was foty dollars an ounce in sixty eight, but I still think you're a fucking retard, and your thread fucking sucks.

Inaccurate label after level after label.

Don't you ever have anything to say on the issues?

Once again you work so hard to misrepresent my comments that you just end up looking illiterate.

I'm not racist; but nice try with yet another cheap smear.

But never an original or insightful thought.

I see you've wasted another perfectly good night spamming the forum. Remember the time you threatened to quit posting here?

40$ @ 8% over 48 years is $1648.63

106$ @ 8% over forty five years is $3383.57

Bernie babies will twist stats any way they like to suit there feelings depending on the day, time and what detection the wind is blowing. @ttystikk says he's not saying the sky is falling, but there is literally 133 pages of the sky is falling economics in this shitty thread. Nobody wants to see another crash, but with Republicans in control of Congress and Trump in the white house ( no thanks to Bernie babies) it's probably inevitable.

LOL

A you've been defending Trump for days now. You've said for some time now that Trump was the best thing to have happened to America, both for what you call Progressives and how he makes Republicans look bad. You go so far as to rail at people who favor Trump's impeachment. Your racist leanings are revealed when you say others are making things worse because they talk about social equality and the issues of the day behind our lack of progress.

You can't even read an article without getting it wrong and then insult others when they try to help you get it right.

Oh, and I'll say it again, reading your posts isn't the same as eavesdropping, factually responding isn't a smear and pointing out that defending people who gratuitously insult with racist comment is racism, crybaby.

We can trust that there are more like him. At least we have learned the words that flag the racist ones for what they are. Of course, not all Bernie supporters are like that. If they were, the homeless situation would be a lot worse.

To be fair, I don't think Shytstikk is particularly racist. Hear me out. Consider that the vast majority of white Americans are culturally imbued with the innate level of racism that makes them think that racial status quo is the way things should be and so they can't help but see the struggle by minorities for equality as persecution. He's less racist than that. So not particularly racist. Sure, he has clearly stumbled around the subject and probably offended people, but his infractions in regard to racism consist mostly of inaction against his own comrades and failing to see privilege for what it is. That is unless I missed something.

He's just too stubborn to take any criticism.

I agree that Padashystikk aren't overtly racist and don't fit the definition of racism in that they don't seem to believe in the superiority of white people over black or brown people. Supporting the status quo of systemic racism by telling people to stop talking about it, I find to crosses the line. Supporting the concept of "kicking social justice warriors to the curb", I find crosses the line. Repeatedly posting deliberately racist and bigoted remarks I find crosses the line. They aren't overtly racist but they lean towards racism in important areas. That's just me, though. I agree that they aren't overt racists and as with Sanders, I can find areas where we have common ground and can agree with them. I can support Sanders although I see areas where he supports the racist status quo in this country.

We have a white supremacist president and growing white supremacist fascist paramilitary that are clearly and overtly racist. I believe Padashystikk also oppose them, they just have strange ideas about how to do so.

Lol spamming a thread by complaining about someone else posting on the thread topic. And you wonder why I don't take your opinions seriously.

Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard in 1973, it was $40 an ounce until then. Your math is a joke.

It's the same ounce of gold. How is the fact that it takes more dollars to buy it anything but the dictionary definition of inflation?

Did you get your economics education from bubblegum wrappers, too?

It would explain a lot.

You're literally retarded.

Do you think anytime a product goes up in price that it's inflation...?

And you're saying I don't know what I'm talking about?
