when i say “the US” i mean the bourgeois state and it’s propaganda apparatus

I forgot there was a women's forum for a while, it's dead, the third from top thread was a blast, though.

I think the US should split into separately governed countries, but I guess there would be a struggle to divide the nukes :/

This is how we get A Handmaids Tale, isn’t it?

we could get rid of all the nukes first

He and his skinheads he told to stand by would actively cheer it

There is more to white supremacy than just the KKK, a fairly small and non-influential group compared to the latest risers in white supremacist factions. There is a reason he chooses to denounce the KKK specifically and not white nationalism in general, or the more recently influential groups in specific.

From this thread I've learned white supremacy isn't a group or possibly even a conscious cognitive decision. Granted there are white supremacist groups.

Well race is just a social construction and supremacy is a normative value-- how could it exist?
Still though there are people who think they are white and people who think they are better than everyone else. Those are bad people.

I think we can all agree people who think they are intrinsically better than other people are worse than other people.

I thought Biden lost chance to smack Trump on the COVID deaths percentages. He did hit the 20% of the world deaths/4% of the world population, but then Trump said more would have died under Biden's watch.

Biden should have had something prepared for this advance... like.

"Look around the room here Mr. President. Any random person in this room would have handled COVID better than you did. We have the best scientists and doctors in the world, and at 4% of the world's population we should have had well under 4% of the worlds' deaths. It takes a special kind of incompetence and arrogance and utter lack of leadership to sit here in front of the American people and claim that anyone would have done worse than you, let alone claim that I in particular would. Mr. Trump, you are, and have been, uniquely incompetent in your handling COVID. Period. If you would like to talk about your handling of COVID more, I can give you some of my time if it is ok with the moderator. I think the American people want to know why you and you advisors can't get on the same page on the most critical issue of our times. Why you fail to follow their guidance. Why you muzzle the experts. Why you lied to the people about how serious this is."

The debates mostly won't matter, at least not in the ways most people think they will.

I mailed in my ballot like two weeks ago.

i was so disgusted with the two, that i couldn't even cosplay the debate and give my fanfic arguments like i usually do

but you're answer would have been better. any random person would have done better in the debate than biden

its pretty much true

biden sucked and if trump wasnt an idiot he would have won the debate outright but instead he acted like a petulant child and purposely didnt even agree to the rules he agreed to

nobody got anything positive out of the debate

it was awful

If Trump wasn't an idiot a lot of things would be different, though. He is who he is.

nothing to do with trump being unintelligent

They both sucked is almost definitely a mental hedge/rationalization. Seen it a lot on the tubes.

it's always a source of amusement that the only thing Mets will ever accuse Trump of doing wrong is tactical errors

If trump wasn't racist a lot of things would be different, though. He is who he is.

I agree trump is probably not intelligent but think it's a mistake to just dismiss him as stupid, although it is really hard to understand his thought process if it exists at all. Ivanka and some cabinet people are almost definitely intelligent by most definitions.

correct

the issue is that trump is a rich bigot

+1

Trump is more racist than he is stupid, but he is very stupid.

I just got mind ****ed by those avatars.
