I decline to concede that white nationalists have a right to exist.

As in, I might be willing to treat them harsher than the Trumpists would treat brown people.

What is the deal with this BORIS character? Better or worse than May/Cameron?

An English person I played poker with in Vegas expressed strong consideration of the idea of not going back if Boris Johnson became PM. Generally, British ex-pats I have met seem very embarrassed by the idea of him.

I was thinking about what Trump could do to re-take the lead on idiocy that we've now lost to the combined UK effort of Brexit + PM Boris. War with Iran might not be enough but maybe Trump will screw up the debt ceiling thing, cause a genuine default on our debt (and do it hilariously when interest rates are at near historic lows), and lose the dollar as the world's reserve currency while causing a world wide depression.

I guess on the bright side the bitcoin bros would be loving the $1M bitcoin valuation.

Johnson's what people wanted to believe trump was at the start of his campaigning. A smart person pretending to be a complete buffoon because it helps his career. Unfortunately he's using all his powers for evil.

I mean Pete is absolutely right here. It doesn't matter if dems nominate Warren or Joe Bipartisan. Either way the right will label the dem nominee as a communist baby killer.

I think he, and many Pete detractors, are taking issue with the fact that what you said is incredibly obvious and yet it still took this long for Pete to come around to that idea.

Quote:
The use of the word “infest” to talk about people is literally out of the Nazi/anti-Semites’ playbook for talking about the Jewish threat. It was also a standard for talking about Chinese in the western United States and it remains part of the vocabulary for talking about Romani (Gypsies) in parts of Europe. This is the most hard-boiled kind of racist demagogic language, the kind that in other parts of the world has often preceded and signaled the onset of exterminationist violence. The verb “to infest” is one generally used to describe insects or vermin (rats), creatures which are literally exterminated when they become present in a house or building or neighborhood.

Tired: Worrying about getting literally killed by a deranged mass shooter.

Wired: A 1000 post thread fretting about antifa - a group that exists solely to punch nazis and their marching partners.

kind of surprised the ronald reagan calling a bunch of africans at the UN monkeys didn't get more play in the news cycle today. that audio is tough to hear because you can still hear that same tone from a bunch of dumbasses today when talking about immigrants or minorities. i don't really expect it to matter at all as 99% of repubs will say hes dead, it doesn't matter, and it was how people talked back then but considering the way reagan is treated as a deity on the right i thought maybe it would be a much bigger story for whatever reason

if anything i was expecting some real facemelters from the usual suspects defending the comments or claiming they aren't racist somehow
