Ban Democrats 1
#26842513 - 07/24/20 11:29 AM (3 years, 6 months ago) |
|

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) introduced a House resolution Thursday calling on lawmakers to ban organizations or political groups that have historically supported the Confederacy or slavery in the U.S., a list he said includes the Democratic Party.
“A great portion of the history of the Democratic Party is filled with racism and hatred. Since people are demanding we rid ourselves of the entities, symbols, and reminders of the repugnant aspects of our past, then the time has come for Democrats to acknowledge their party’s loathsome and bigoted past, and consider changing their party name to something that isn’t so blatantly and offensively tied to slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination, and the Ku Klux Klan,” Gohmert said in a statement.
The resolution is co-sponsored by GOP Reps. Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Jody Hice (Ga.), Randy Weber (Texas) and Andy Harris (Md.)" https://thehill.com/homenews/house/508759-gops-gohmert-introduces-resolution-that-would-ban-the-democratic-party
Do you think this type of 'grandstanding' has any place in the Congress?

Performative politics does nothing for anyone, just distractions from real change. Looks like a publicity stunt for reelection season.

This is an interesting move.
It WAS the democrats that opposed freeing the slaves.
It WAS the democrats that completely destroyed black wall street.
I would make an argument now that the democrats are doing whatever they can to keep their black voting livestock dependent on them. As Biden said, "if you don't vote democrat, you aint black."
According to the logic of the protesters who want statues torn down because of their history, it WOULD be logically consistent to have the dems change their name, too.
But I think it's all just a bullshit PR stunt, too. Good to talk about, but not worth of any sort of legal action.

It's not racist, it's true. They depend on keeping their black communities poor to get the black vote. Democrats still have slaves, they just changed the format from chains to welfare checks.

Everything about this is racist . Are we just supposed to assume the Black community is to dumb to understand the incredibly complex and nuanced history of our political parties ? They are just mindlessly influenced by welfare checks ?
That’s racist af .

Of course it's racism. Democratic leadership LOVES their slaves, after all.

You have a terrible understanding of history, obviously cherrypicking and generalizing democrats when Abe Lincolns Republican party acted more like the democratic party but over time each party has become something different. Also the way you talk about race is pretty clear. I'd argue that the democrats are the only ones who give a shit about non white people and that's why they have to constantly be the ones to fight for change. I know one thing for damn sure and that's Trump and republicans have no interest at all in diffusing racial tensions, it's what they feed off

Yeah he's done a great job making speeches to help African Americans feel safer in America by calling them punks and looters, telling them they shouldn't be mad because "white people die from police brutality too" He was comforting in Charlottesville, very understanding about George Floyd, we 'll know he's been very comforting to black people recently. There's 3 more solid years of examples Lmao it's an absolute joke to think Trump cares about non whites more then whites t this point. He barely cares about Americans in general

Trump has never called African Americans punks and looters. That's a major, MAJOR dishonest twist of what he actually said.
If you want to hear some REAL RACIST SHIT thrown at black people though, just listen to our democratic nominee "rant" about the entire community for 3 minutes straight!

So why don’t poor white people flock the the Democratic Party ? Why don’t they get their welfare checks for loyalty ? Do white folk have a better work ethic ? Superior intellect ? Just more honest ? Less racist ?

What did he call the protesters? He said that he supports peaceful protests but that most of these people are BLM radicals that are just looters and criminals and has deployed federal agents from everything like a photo op in front of of a church using tear gas and rubber bullets to clear the way to a picture. He has never once been supportive of people begging to be heard that policie brutalility is a problem to the point where he signed a completely self defeating "policing act" that said officers can't use chokeholds UNLESS their life is in danger which is all the time. He didn't say that these officers need more training, didnt a knowledge a problem and it's spiraled out of control he reacts to protests with literal force instead of at least attempting to unify the country.
Instead he is blamed it all on Democrats. While Democrats get some of the blame he does too. He is the president the dems aren't. He is in a unique position he say that police combat training, continuous psych evaluations and deescalation tactics should all be changed to happen more often so some power hunger racist like Chauvinand the pussies he was on duty with can't slip through the cracks. Then he could have directly address protesters emotions and like many presidents before in times of great turmoil he could acknowledge the pain and give hope of moving forward with positive change.
This is the same guy that said he has done more than any other president "except maybe Abe Lincoln" for black people which is just complete horseshit. I don't think he's helped African Americans in the slightest in almost a full term and only further spoked widespread division to me that is crystal clear. Black people know that too and are really tired of his bold face lies about how much they love him.

I just received a warning from a moderator for this post claiming it was racist.
I choose to contest that warning. My contempt for democratic leaders and how they clearly view black people has NOTHING to do with my personal opinion on race. (Fuck...I don't really see color. I just know other people do.)

You Camp can test a warning the moderator was just warning you that we have rules here and racist comments right now or ever have not been tolerated because we are a very diverse group. I understand even though I disagree with you you have the right to have your own opinions just don't flame people and we will be good

Phrasing. Give me a break. I'm not a fuckin' racist.
There's plenty of white voting livestock, too. But black people *specifically* have been TOLD by EVERYONE around them ESPECIALLY white people that they can't possibly be a black person if they don't vote democrat. You're either a black person or an Uncle Tom. You know this as well as I do. Biden said it himself.
White people still telling black people how to think in 2020... and they are all democrats.
EDIT: I'm glad my statement WAS offensive to your ears. It SHOULD be... but my POINT was to help you realize that's how democratic leadership views their black voters, not how I do.

Now you’re saying there are “white voting livestock, too.” The “too” meaning “in addition” to the black voting livestock you mentioned earlier. These are your opinions. Not the democrats or anyone else’s.

But I see what you’re saying. Black voters are just like livestock to democrats. I guess that means you think blacks who vote for the democrats are just a mindless herd that are told what to do? They dont know what they’re doing and need people like you to liberate them from their involuntary patronage.
Believe it or not, black people are free to vote for who ever they want. They tend to vote democrat because they want to, not because they are TOLD to.

No. I think that's what democratic leadership thinks. Re-listen to Joe Biden just above. it's only 12 seconds.
Having an opinion that another group is racist doesn't make one a racist. Otherwise everyone that has called me a racist (even though I am not) would also be a racist.

Guys, don't feed the troll. 🤣
The Democratic Party did in fact support segregation etc. etc. but not since JFK. The LBJ vs Goldwater campaign is where you can see the big shift in policy, imo.

Saying democrats supported slavery is like saying americans supported the genocide of native americans... sure but it says nothing about individual democrats/americans today.
Let's just ignore the fact that that white supremacists and white nationalists almost exclusively identify as alt-right or trumpies in present day reality.

There's HUGE fucking difference.
I basically got a warning for calling democrat leadership racist.
I got a warning saying I was racist for for saying someone else was racist. 
If the mods said you were racist, you must have been quite racists. The mods here are mostly laissez faire. In eight years of posting here, I have only seen them step in exceptional situations.

What is "white pride"?
Or what is "white nationalism"?
See, I'm a white guy, but I have Russian pride. I know people that have German pride. I know people that have French pride.
As a matter of fact, I have openly been referred to as the "(racial slur implying black person) of white people" based on my Slavic heritage.
See, black people in the US largely don't get to have pride in a homeland, because that was taken from them when they were enslaved and forcibly removed from their homeland. That's why you have "Black" pride. White people don't have that problem. White people get to have national pride.

You appear to embrace the perspective black skinned people are still slaves.
You have the right to believe that idea - but many folks think that's ridiculous.
All of these black-skinned people shouting for "freedom" - give me a break!
So many white skinned people have lost their minds. Thanks to CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, etc

Using that logic they should be saying American pride rather than black pride for that there is no confusion that they are proud of their nationality and not their skin color.

Yes it’s all very strange why “white pride” gets such a bad rap

To support American pride, one must first be proud. What is there to be proud of? The biggest GDP drop in history? The fact that Covid-19 will be the third biggest killer in the US this year, which means the three deadly Cs are about to become the four deadly Cs? (Used to be Coronary, Car Crash, and Cancer)? The fact that we have officially lost a war against a bunch of Islamic sand farmers? Or maybe that fact that Black Americans are routinely reminded that they are not "true" Americans, by a bunch of "White Pride" losers carrying the flags of older traitors and losers (that's the Confederates and the Nazis).
Or maybe the fact that most every other country on the planet is now refusing US travelers? Having a US passport used to be a big deal. Now, it's a reason to deny entry.
There's nothing to be proud of here. We're a shithole country now. We have secret police disappearing people in the night. We have mass surveillance that China's "sesame points" could only dream of being. And we have a "president" that is now openly calling to end elections.
There's an interesting measure of society: If you are willing to roll the dice, and enter by chance at any possible level of that society, then it is a good society. See, I am nowhere near willing to do that. Right now I'm a well educated and well off white guy. If I roll the dice, I might end up a black transexual woman with a GED and in poverty, and that would be goddamn terrible. While that remains true, our society is fundamentally sick.

Nice rant but jokes on you because half the world wishes they were proud Americans
Its actually funny watching you melt whenever America, trump or Republicans get brought up. And you say you immigrated to America. Why move to or stay in a country which upsets so much? I have a feeling you're probably short or something, why else would you be so angry at the world

Yeah, I moved to the America of the 90s. Back before Gingrich started his campaign of "fuck the government, GOP or kill them all!"
Modern America is pretty damn sad. The worst part is, I was in the works to transfer to the German team at my company. That got stopped because America is now under quarantine.
You say I'm "melting", I'm just sad this is how it is. I'm not angry, I'm not melting, and in all honesty, I'm quite comfortable. I recently picked up a rental property. I'm just disappointed.

Why are you still in Canada? Can’t get a visa? Are you just jealous that he’s living the American Dream while you fester in socialist hell masturbating to Donald Trump’s tweets?
It’s pretty disappointing the situation we are in. I don’t think we’re gonna be able travel outside the US anytime soon, even travel within the US is super sketchy because you don’t know what things will be like in a few weeks. I was supposed to go to glacier national park this summer but that didn’t happen. The economy is pretty fucked up now. Stores and restaurants are closing permanently on a regular basis now. There’s the constant worrying about what activities are OK and what and who I should avoid. There’s a lot of things i know I’m not going to be able to do for at least the next six months. And then there’s having to Deal with the people who don’t care and because they don’t care things aren’t going to get better.

I know. I have a week of vacation and I don't have any idea where to go. I thought D.C. and either see the monuments or the protests. I thought the Dakotas and going to Deadwood and Sturgis, but I found out they are both at the western border, and I don't know if that would be worth the boring drive. Maybe fly to Vegas. IDK. I want to go someplace I've never been to before.

NJ too. A bunch of air B&B and graduation parties really spiked our numbers. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/coronavirus-outbreaks-linked-n-j-house-parties-lead-airbnb-suspend-n1235455 Truth be told, the 18-25 year old Vinsue would be doing the same shit though.

Right you are. I'm fist bumping or arm bumping my friends, but if a pretty girl wants to hug or dance I'm not doing very good with maintaining social distancing. I'm balancing wanting to stay alive with wanting to have a good time with whatever good years I have left.

That is some real racist shit, Vahn421.
Thanks for pointing that out. Lets see some footage of trump saying anything half as racist as that.

Alcohol can cure a lot of things, even ugliness if it's not too far advanced.
