I don't recall this...can you provide an example?
It might be...it might be that you're deeply biased and struggle with confirmation bias.
That Republicans aren't my party of choice.
His son is a criminal...and a bagman for his father.
I would say tried for our own crimes.
Ironically....you want reparations. You want me to pay you for what other white people did to other black people.
I think Joe should be investigated....and it's clear he isn't.
MeToo shirked due process....ruined men's lives without a trial. BLM shirked due process...found innocent cops guilty in the public eye.
Don't lecture me.
If you want to know why I left the left....it's real simple. Race essentialism.
It's oddly difficult to find a basic definition of race essentialism online but here's a rather good if not overly complex one.
When Joe Biden solidified the left as firmly race essentialist....and therefore racist...when he stated if you don't vote for him, you aren't black. The entire left had been slowly moving that direction about 10 years earlier with ideas they adopted like "white privilege" that were undeniably race essentialism...but Biden stated it more clearly than any professor could....
The left is for racists...and thats where they can now mostly be found.
Now, I don't see that as the worst thing in the world....it's still enough for me to not defend them. Are there racists on the right? Of course. Is it part and parcel to their political doctrine? No...but we can definitely say it is on the left. We've seen the racism they want to inject into schools....the workplace....and government. That's vile in my eyes.
Why would I support it?
Edit- I just realized how confusing reading that link may be for those...with poor reading skills. I'll just copy-paste the definition.
Racial essentialism is the self-aggrandizing but
delusory belief that the obsolete, pseudoscientific categories that organize the stratification and
segregation of the American caste system -
“race,” “black,” “white,” “mixed race,” and the
like – denote empirically meaningful states of affairs, whether genetic, biological, social, or
visual; and that in particular, the categories by which some attempt to racialize themselves and
others denote actual facts that veridically locate each in relation to the others – i.e. put everyone in
their place. Racial essentialists attempt to
racialize themselves through self-referential
announcements of their “racial” identity in terms of those outmoded categories. They thereby
attempt to racialize their audiences as well, by implication, as either conforming to or diverging
from that “racial” identity. These attempts fail systematically and by definition, because those
categories do not refer to any actual genetic, biological, social, or visual facts at all.
But then racial essentialism does not require
any evidential foundation for its ascriptions.
Rather, it reifies those crude racial stereotypes into an unconvincing simulacrum of social reality
in an obsessive-compulsive ritual of wishful thinking. That is the ritual racial essentialists invite
their audiences to reenact.
