Because non one is perfect and one can find issue with anything anyone does, much less either political party. I don't feel this is hyperbole at all. The left are hypocrites up and down the board. Sure, the right has their moments as well. But today, I see far more issue with the left and how insane they've become since Trump was elected. This is just another example, and it was a news story that I saw today. Had I seen something showing the right doing something similar, I would have happily posted it. But, nothing new came up, I don't see Trump talking about removing LGBT marriage rights while he's complaining about those that want sharia law, as an example. I do see the OP as relevant today given that they are candidates running for president. Pointing out their hypocrisy and ever increasing charge to the left is fair game.
*edit - And I want to add, one of the big issues I have with the left today is that they manufacture racism and bigotry while smuggly thinking they own the moral high ground in the fight against it. Keep them on the plantation, keep everyone a victim.
It’s a valid topic, but you present it in as inflammatory a tone as possible to kick the hornet’s nest, and then we get three pages of pissing matches.I think this is perfectly valid topic for this forum, the story is from a mainstream media source, and the Democrats are hypocrites.

Dividing America over its race problem is a Russian propaganda priority. Were this a right wing site I think SlowSpider would be raving on about how Black people get the shaft.
No, guy, you are in truth doing what you're accusing others of doing. Brad already showed it quite well. You're brainwashed by your media into believing lies (as Homer pointed out) that lead you to believe that you are being victimized by 'leftists' or whatever. While your simplistic bipolar worldview, in which you assign everyone into monolithic groups of your choosing and insist that each person within those groups must believe and behave according to your preconceptions, is arguably the ultimate in divisiveness and prejudice.The reality! nalm (Not a laughing matter)
I MEAN... WHO SAW THAT ONE COMING? TALK ABOUT YOUR PLOT TWISTS... WOW.*edit - And I want to add, one of the big issues I have with the left today is that they manufacture racism and bigotry while smuggly thinking they own the moral high ground in the fight against it.

Nothing about what I said was unfair to Americans. I said nothing that contradicts what you said. The only thing that was potentially unfair about what I said is that SlowSpider may actually be stupid enough to be saying what he really believes rather than acting as a Russian agent. Sorry, but that anybody could be that stupid is too horrible to contemplate.That's not fair to Americans. Race has been a dividing problem for a long while now, its just that Russia has realized how useful it can be for their purposes.
Damn, that was good. Love the effort and intelligence you put into that. I find it suites my liberal lazy-assed freebee thinking just to call him a Russian agent, so Russian agent he is for me. He can take it up with his psychiatrist all his rage against his Mother for not standing up to his Dad for using him as a punching bag.No, guy, you are in truth doing what you're accusing others of doing.

Case in point: no 'leftist' politician here argued for reparations. No 'leftist' poster here has argued in favor of reparations. But you will likely go on and on in this thread all day insisting that 'leftists' argued for something when they never did, and calling them names when they refuse to admit to being for something that you're convinced that all 'leftists' must be for, even when it's proven to you that they aren't.
And, pal, if that ain't divisive, then what is? If it isn't prejudiced to tell people what you think they must believe and refuse to accept their own arguments to the contrary, then what is?
Carry on though. I wouldn't want stop you from doing what you do here every day, which is making a fool of yourself and blaming everyone else for it. And if that isn't playing a victim, then what is?

They keep going further and further left, keep lowering the bar.
So, Democrats think people that are generations removed from slavery, people that have never ever felt the pain of such a practice, should be paid for being victim to slavery. Some ~150 years after slavery ended.
These are the same people that think that dreamers should stay in America because guilt cannot be passed down, not a child's fault their illegal parents had birth in a country they shouldn't be in.
Shame your family wasn't split and sold down the river, with your great great grandmother being raped one minute, then used like a pack animal the next minute. Shame you never saw a picture of your great grandfather with a rope around his neck, swinging from an elm tree.
Then you might a clue. Until then, stay in your own fucking lane.

Don't think he can handle the truth?
It's not an extreme if it's an experience. I never got to know my great grandfather, I might have never even had a chance to know him, even without him being hanged from a tree in Louisiana. But I do know that was a chance stolen from both us. You don't have to go back 175 years to find the evil in this country 83 years is plenty.
Funny how nobody had much of an issue with those nor the decsendants of those shipped off to the Manzanar Internment Camp getting paid.

Something terrible happened to your great grandfather. That is unfortunate, very unfortunate, and I'm sorry to hear that your family was affected in such a way. I'm happy we're past that time in history and looking to a brighter future. But I'm sorry, I don't agree that you deserve a government payout, I think you deserve the same opportunity and security as everyone else. You should not have to worry about being hurt in a prejudiced hate crime. You should have the same opportunity as anyone else to achieve. We are equals and that's something I argue for, but neither of us deserves privilege or to be held back unfairly.
Again, sorry for your family's loss.
@SlowSpyder do you believe that black Americans today face disadvantage owing to many years of racial discrimination supported by government in the United States?
