A lot of the claims made by Putin are not provable. Nonetheless, tons of Russians have bought into it, just like some on the American far-right. Of course, something not provable could be correct, we just don't have enough evidence.

Morality and how it relates to abortion
Jayson replied to Techno's topic in Debate, Politics, & Religion
I can't argue with this because I would get banned, so I am silent. Perhaps other members of the forum might disagree and they can give their opinion. -
Nutballs exist in both parties who want to rewrite history too much in their "own image". It's called extremism. Personally, I don't feel like we can "white-wash", pun intended, lol, a lot of American history. Nonetheless, though, a strong emphasis on certain social justice things is biased too much.

We can agree that banning interracial marriage is silly and brings up images of segregation like separate water fountains. I mean, get real people, lol. Also, I'm sure many Republicans don't support it along despite the numerous other ones, maybe, who are looking for a "voting advantage". Well, not to be off-topic, but I said before that everyone in a certain party isn't the same.
-
Not all Democrats are the same just as all Republicans are not. For instance, tons of Republicans found Trump too rude, opposed his isolationism and other things.

I'm guessing the generic canned vegetables are the same as store-bought. It's just not worth the extra money to get Green Giant or whatever.

Well, people in the Middle Ages thought that. They say that's why the black plague came about, lol.

No, I'm against that crap. We don't need indoctrination for any politics given to kids, no matter what it is or if the view is popular in that area. I had a teacher like that (in middle school) when I was in school. She would make off-the-wall comments, xenophobic ones, all the time. Also, I had a Christian fundamentalist one in high school doing the same. Anyway, there was this bleeding heart teacher indoctrinating students too a little. However, despite her sweet intentions, maybe she should have hushed up about it. Anyway, I've made conservative comments on here, but I don't believe in pushing it on kids - because they don't really have much an ability to fight back. I remember that teacher in high school and he would make all these really pompous comments and kids would just look at him like goldfish, lol.

RepubliKKKan is a bit over the top. I don't think Democrats are total saints, even not regarding that topic I've spoken of so much on there. However, I understand that fans want to support the team, though. Anyway, this thread has gone off-topic maybe. Well, racism is a terrible thing, but like bullying in a general sense, is unavoidable. My Asian travels was just too much for people to take back home, so they needed to vent their disagreement - and any other aspects of my personality they hate would have flamed things even more.

The internet seems to be fast and affordable pretty much everywhere.

Everyone wants to play the victim. That would include traditional Democratic voting groups and so-called "angry white men". For instance, I don't want Confederate memorabilia funded with taxpayer money. Why should people fund white chauvinism and the longing for neo-feudalism? Yes, and those people think they are victims to a sickening degree. Everyone owes them something. Well, I'm just bringing up the example to show a balanced viewpoint.

Churches That Believe They are the Only Way
Jayson replied to Jayson's topic in Debate, Politics, & Religion
Abortions might be affecting more non-whites than whites, maybe by even a large degree. In fact, some anti-abortion activists claim Planned Parenthood was a eugenics inspired weapon against a non-white population. -
If prejudice against in every ethnic group, then you have to conclude everyone isn't the same even though they vote for the same party.
-
This area has too many interracial marriages for there to be laws without a lot of a stir going on. Well, I suppose the couples could leave. Anyway, this whole thing is probably motivated by fear of losing political power. It's assumed a lot of non-white groups (or mixed race groups), outside Asians maybe, are going to vote Democratic.

Churches That Believe They are the Only Way
Jayson replied to Jayson's topic in Debate, Politics, & Religion
The Holocaust was less about religion and more about economic envy and scapegoating. Anyway, the whole Nazi thing was mostly about opposing Jews as a race, not religion. The Nazi movement cared less about religion. Basically, the Great Depression and Weimar Germany made life hard for Germans, so they turned to extremists with easy answers. -
It's not cool to say this on the forum, probably, but a lot of groups are massively racist against whites. If that's the case, then there will also be whites racist against others. Anyway, people aren't perfect. People shouldn't be racist, but sometimes stuff will slip out. Well, are these people who say racist things, the type who say them all the time? O.K., here's an unpopular opinion: maybe if people ignored hate speech the heat on it would go to the person who says it. Isn't that what Gandhi taught?
-
Well, let's assume they are. Well, if they get rid of CRT, then Republicans should give up Confederate monuments. It seems like different groups are just pushing agendas too much. Anyway, I'm sure enough CRT is taught in schools, sort of. I remember watching Roots in school and several teachers had a bleeding-heart side. Well, anyway, should we really push politics too much on kids, no what they are? It's a type of indoctrination.
-
You mean I'm stereotyping people into groups. For instance, If I said homophobia was a problem in the black community, is that saying all blacks are homophobic? Am I am coming against blacks as a tangent by what I said, simply because people assume I got something against them politically?
-
I'm not supposed to comment on this thread no more. However, since you've all continued to write on it, I will say something. O.K., you bring up saving lives of the mother. Well, that might be the case sometimes. However, I seriously doubt if most abortions are about that. In fact, they are just a lazy way to get out of a situation - by "murdering the baby".
-
The fact is a lot of backward people exist in the GOP and Mississippi was brought up, but it's a backward area like the old South Africa in a lot of ways. Why is there this movement to stigmatize the whole conservative movement as being backward and inhumane? However, we have to define what is backward. Well, the mid-south isn't as backward as the deep south. Anyway, opposing abortion and other conservative ideas are not as backward or seemingly inhuman as opposing interracial marriage. Well, the idea interracial marriage should be opposed, makes it seem too much like racism should be normalized and that goes against the modern culture "too much". I mean, not all conservatives are the same. Somebody's grandpa might be vastly different than the grandson. As I was saying before, all conservatives are not the same, just as all liberals aren't. I mean, a lot of blacks are homophobic, but yet vote for Democrats. Should we call out "hypocrisy"?

O.K., I will go to the other thread.
