How millennials killed American cheese

22 gets super salty about racist posts about Asians but suckles at the Trump nipple. Weird

Links to posts where I sucked at trumps nipple. I call out some faux liberal outrage sometimes but Trump himself can get fucking fucked bud. I’ve stated multiple times I’m happing voting for moderate Democrats, and occasionally progressives if the other option is a turf sandwich, I.e Beto.
 
As someone who lives with someone who cooks with shrimp paste, I ain’t got no problem with Louie’s take
 
Conflating a continent where your ancestors were born with ethnicity is really dumb. Too many different cultures qualify as Asian (or African or European, for that matter).

Only acceptable East Asian stereotype is that the men have small dicks. That’s just science.
 
American cheese is acceptable and even preferable in certain culinary situations.

Fine cheese is delicious and it doesn’t make a person snooty to enjoy it.

Anyone who still supports Trumpism either overtly or just by continuing to vote for this version of Republican Party deserves to be mocked.

Three truths we can all agree on for this thread, yes?
 
Good post.

Ok so let’s accept your premise. All those factors go into party affiliation and you can’t make statements about the common beliefs and actions of people in a political party.

How many factors go into race and gender and how do you think party is similar to race and gender?

And I did notice you didn’t refer to my evidence nor did you provide any of your own. That’s dismissive and disrespectful. Look up the model minority myth and explain to me how Republicans don’t do that.

I also noticed you did the whole predictable “OMG stop calling me a racist” victim routine. Stop being a snowflake and let someone call your party out on their BS. Have a reasonable discussion like a reasonable person.

If you want to have a reasonable discussion stop calling everyone in an entire political party racist.

First of all, I didn’t call everyone anything. Saying Steph Curry is a good shooter doesn’t mean he hits every shot.

Second, just because you don’t like what I say doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Third, refusing to even address my point doesn’t help you make your own. Again, this is a well studied phenomenon. You won’t even bother to look it up.

I’ll help you.

'Model Minority' Myth Again Used As A Racial Wedge Between Asians And Blacks
https://www.npr.org/sections/codesw...d-as-a-racial-wedge-between-asians-and-blacks

"Sullivan's comments showcase a classic and tenacious conservative strategy," Janelle Wong, the director of Asian American Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, said in an email. This strategy, she said, involves "1) ignoring the role that selective recruitment of highly educated Asian immigrants has played in Asian American success followed by 2) making a flawed comparison between Asian Americans and other groups, particularly Black Americans, to argue that racism, including more than two centuries of black enslavement, can be overcome by hard work and strong family values."


Since the end of World War II, many white people have used Asian-Americans and their perceived collective success as a racial wedge. The effect? Minimizing the role racism plays in the persistent struggles of other racial/ethnic minority groups — especially black Americans.

Now scooter, at least respond. “That’s not true” or “I’m not a racist” isn’t an acceptable answer. Find some evidence.
 
If you say you’re not a racist, but you vote for politicians that promote racist policies and openly sow racial division and are endorsed by racist groups, then does it even matter?

How can I respond to that? I don't even know what the hell you're talking about or how it relates to my life.

I consider myself a conservative and a republican but disagree with many of the things I hear you and others attribute to those groups. I don't have the time, motivation, or, to be honest, the expertise to argue here - you are going to think what you think about me anyway. I've learned not to open my mouth in public and should probably do the same here.
 
You respond by reading what I said, thinking about it, and writing something thoughtful.

You aren’t the only Republican. How does a response have to be personal to your life? I can respond to a statement about a Latina Democrat in California because I’m aware of people beside myself and I can read.

Then who voted for the Republicans serving in government if not Republicans in the wild?

Where is the tea party while Republicans explode the debt? Why do most Republicans support spending $5B on a border wall?

If someone’s been voting Republican for 30 years and considers themselves a reasonable person and then the party takes a huge turn (arguable) into grift and fraud, anti-critical thinking, fiscally irresponsible tax cuts and general idiocy all wrapped up in faux populist policies and delivered by the most vile, ignorant, anti-Christian messenger the party could have possibly picked...

Then wouldn’t that reasonable person stop voting for that party if they don’t support these things?
 
I don’t support anything the Republican Party does these days, but I desperately want to be called a Republican and will take it as a personal insult when anyone calls out Republicans.

Signed, a sane person.

Not if political party was part of their personal identity and they’re part of a ecosystem full of lies about people who aren’t like them.

What's the alternative? I'm not going to run myself. And I sure as fuck aren't going to vote for a Clinton or a socialist.

You're right on one point and that is that the "Republican" party has moved. I and others like me are more accurately called conservatives these days - not republicans. But we don't have a party.

LOL

If that’s the choice you’ve set up for yourself then just don’t vote. Don’t saddle the country with pieces of shit like Trump.
