Ding-ding-ding! If the Dems focused on class, we would have more clean and healthy political dialogue. I have no idea how Trump moved enough working class into his column.

For some reason, the Democratic party has been taken over by elements of the radical left with a desire to build the party around identity politics. It greatly confuses the politics in our country. Since I don't support many of the Dems ideals, I guess I am a racist. Oh well.

Since Butler1000 is here, I will say Bernie was always a class warfare guy until he realized the party had become focused on identity politics.
Exactly. This is just a free week trial of Bernie's presidency. Looters and rioters running the streets destroying the same government that they expect free benefits from. I'm being excessive but this has just gone too far at this point. All these protestors have divided the sides even more than before.

Yeah sure. MLK protested peacefully and had a huge impact, is still talked about and respected by all races. He didn't loot and steal and cause riots.
All these protests are not going to change the few that are racist. The people who are actually racist won't have their minds changed by riots and looters, it will probably make them even more racist.
Now in terms of what happened to George Floyd, everyone on all sides of the political spectrum agree the officers involved should be arrested and charged. There is literally no one who disagrees on this.
Virtue signalling on instagram with black squares and looting isn't going to change anything.
He had Malcolm X waiting as a threat.

And the govt used the FBI as a weapon against him. And in the end they killed him.

And if you really look you will see alot more violence was nessessary to get them to the table. And the death of a president to get the civil Rights act signed.

You're right. Black squares won't cut it. The threat of losing everything will.

Look up the coal miners wars in West Virginia sometime. It isn't taught in schools but it was the last armed domestic conflict in the USA. And the Coal miners won.

If a black president with a black DOJ couldn't make a dent peacefully what else is left?

A class war is inevitable. Whether it is settled at the negotiation table or in the streets is up to the politicians.

They have been taken over by corporate interests who use identity politics as a weapon. And to give the illusion of left politics.

The likes of the Clinton's, Pelosi, Schumer work for the same donors as McConnell and friends. As does Biden.

Follow the money. That is where both agenda and loyalty lie.

Um, how many times have you advocated shooting 'looters'?
I never have (unless its self-defense by either a cop or a citizen protecting himself from a looter).

You dont watch videos I post or you dont read my posts at all.
Whats the point in debating you if you dont do that??!!

Here's what I wrote: https://terb.cc/vbulletin/showthrea...knee-on-neck&p=6711660&viewfull=1#post6711660

Yes, but I favour baton sticks, pepper spray, rubber bullets and water cannons
Tell you what basketcase, please post where I advocated shooting protestors.
I want you quote my exact post.

Thanks in advance

Moral of the story? I can't wait to hear the Cop's lawyer use that as part of his defense. They were wearing body cams. I can't wait to see how unruly the unarmed victim was leading up to him being handcuffed and subsequently choked to death.

Me thinks there was a reason all four Cops were fired on the spot. We shall wait and see.

Now if this happened in Toronto, the SIU would take over the investigation and the Cops would be suspended with pay for several years before there was even a preliminary hearing.

Your support of these Cops and your lack of empathy for this man is actually very disturbing.

What is lack of empathy a symptom of?

Psychopathy, a general term for illness of the mind, can result in a lack of empathy, causing various forms of antisocial behavior. Sociopathy, or damage to the ability to function in a social setting, often includes a lack of empathy, also causing various forms of antisocial behavior.
Nothing smacks harder of hypocrisy than when a client on an escort site pontificates from his ethical podium about the morals of others.

French Revolution, China Revolution, Iranian Revolution, etc. The only successful revolution, wait for it, the American Revolution. What China is to-day could have been accomplished through evolution without all the deaths.

Your post said it. Or you can correct me. Do you realize the leadership of both parties have no interest in changing things?
Let me correct you then since your ass-umptions were wrong. There is plenty truth in what Brother Malcolm said.

That said, between denied certain opportunities and being hung from a tree 'til my neck snaps, I know which path I'd choose. So until decent people have an epiphany and shake up the system we will remain where we are.

I do find it troubling that Bernie didn't have a large African-American following. An opportunity missed.
