the BBC loves to promote racial and ethnic hatred towards minorities, they should be banned from the fediverse

Of course everyone is ok with locking up black people for no reason

LexiconDrexicon ,

This isn’t Russia, but man do you people want it to be so bad

LexiconDrexicon ,

Anything to lock up black people I guess, even when they do nothing wrong

But Roman Polanski gets a pass though even though what Polanski did was way worse

Biden’s asylum restrictions for migrants may remain in place, federal appeals court rules (www.washingtonpost.com)

A federal appeals court panel Thursday approved the Biden administration’s emergency request to keep its asylum restrictions in place on the U.S.-Mexico border while the legal battle over the policy makes its way through the courts....

So racism is ok as long as it doesn’t effect you? Next you’ll tell me it’s not ok but then you’ll double down anyways, happens every time

Having standards is not a “privileged position”, it couldn’t be more opposite

Also having lived through the 1990’s, Joe Biden couldn’t be more conservative if he wanted to be, he’s a classic Dixiecrat from the South larping as a progressive for votes

It’s insane that racist people like you aren’t banned from here yet, you’re the same anti-black racist that made me leave reddit years ago and now you’re here to spread your anti-black garbage again

You people need to join the nazi party because that’s all you represent anymore, you’re literally siding with White Nationalism and repeating their same rhetoric

Democracy is letting the people choose for themselves, so if the people don’t vote for him it’s democracy all the same.

Running away never solves anything, what a coward

LexiconDrexicon ,

WOAH

It’s almost like politicians will say whatever to get elected or something…so weird! This is probably the first time in American history a politician has lied for votes…I’m sure of it…

MSNBC is not a network of cryptobros is it?

Not that surprising, the 1990’s saw a large drop in black voter turnout also

There is a difference though between midterms and Presidential elections. Midterms are always brutal because no one ever shows up for them. It’s a chore to get 50% of the people to get out for midterms, which really are equally as important as Presidential elections

I wish

Give us another Obama ffs, it can’t be this hard, they pulled Obama up from nowhere and made him President. I don’t know why the DNC keeps supporting people who basically have one foot in the grave and barely know where they are half the time

So as long as they’re white Republicans it’s cool I guess?

I mean as long as everyone in D.C is white again I guess we’re all just cool with everything I suppose. I honestly don’t get this country anymore. What was even the point of Black Lives Matter if nothing is changing in D.C

Because Christianity played a major part in helping black people overcome slavery and united them together?

Also all Civil Rights movements in America started in the Protestant Church

Uncle Tom is a racist term that was used by the KKK to describe black people who wanted to “act white” by selling out other black people.

But it’s wildly inaccurate. It has nothing to do with the actual book Uncle Toms Cabin, one of the most popular books ever written (it outsold the Bible in the 1850’s). Harriet Beecher Stowe who wrote the book was an abolitionist, she was very very anti-slavery like Mark Twain. Uncle Tom in the book is based on an actual former slave, and Uncle Tom in the book, if you actually read the book, SPOILER ALERT, is beaten to death at the end for refusing to give up the whereabouts of 2 other slaves. That’s Uncle Tom, a martyr.

Calling someone an Uncle Tom means you’re calling them a hero, not a sellout. The whole phrase you’re referring to comes from the play that was written afterwards which turned Uncle Tom into a meek character because the play writers didn’t think people would’ve liked the ending of having a man beaten to death.

Here’s a wonderful article about it

www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=930…

Quoting from the article:

MARTIN: What is it that African-Americans hate about this story?

Prof. TURNER: Many African-Americans don’t hate the real story that Stowe wrote. The Uncle Tom character that she gives us is extraordinarily Christian. The climax of the story really comes when Uncle Tom is asked to reveal where two slave women are hiding, who had been sexually abused by their master. And he refuses. Knowing that he is going to be beaten to death, he refused to say where they are. And African-Americans who have read the novel can appreciate what kind of heroism that took for a black man to sign away his life to save two black women.

Unfortunately, the stage depictions don’t include that part of the story. They grossly distort Uncle Tom into an older man than he is in the novel, a man whose English is poor, a man who will do quite the opposite, who will sell out any black man if it will curry the favor of a white employer, a white master, a white mistress. It’s that distorted character that is so objectionable to African-Americans.

Prof. TURNER: The producers of the early stage shows didn’t think that they could attract an audience for the Uncle Tom as he was depicted by Stowe. They couldn’t sell tickets to a theatrical production, the climax which would have been this man dying, rather than the revealing the whereabouts of these women.

They could sell tickets, as they had been successful by showing blacks in minstrel depictions, showing them liking to dance more than they liked to work, showing their insensitivity to each other, showing their willingness to tell the master or mistress what he or she wanted to hear. That sold tickets, and so those were the shows that they produced, staged and circulated throughout the world.

I highly recommend everyone actually read Uncle Toms Cabin

I can tell you 80% of black people are Christian right now, so you’re insulting 80% of black people and their religious belief

How would you like it if I insulted Jewish people and their belief? Muslims?

LexiconDrexicon ,

Please do not belittle other peoples religious beliefs and customs. Thank you.

Everyone in the United States of America is free to practice their religious beliefs, it is against the ideals of Basic Human Rights to deny anyone that right, especially here in America. If 80% of Black Americans are Christians then I believe it is only appropriate, and in accordance with the ideals of a free democratic society, to respect that belief, not to dehumanize Black people for choosing what they wish to.

Please do not attack other peoples religious beliefs. Thank you

That study is talking about the US, it’s not talking about the world. If the US has done all of this work, and yet climate change is STILL happening and we’re dealing with it right now then the US is not the problem.

But why isn’t it working? Because China is the biggest polluter

This is discriminatory and it shouldn’t even need to exist, I mean, heck, you can literally buy legal weed over the internet now and get it delivered to your door, you can purchase seeds too because in 2018 selling hemp was decriminalized federally

The article makes it sound like he’s already President or something, and no, he won’t be.
