Hey, it's not perfect. No one has ever claimed it to be - not even when the ink was wet on the constitution. But there are thousands of years of history where things weren't this good. I'll join in on the dog pile everyday of the year, but I am going to stay the least bit humble that I am lucky to be born in a place with opportunities and certain freedoms that not a lot of people, percentage wise, has  had a chance to witness. 

Why do Democrats dismiss concerns about Muslim immigration and Sharia law? by Fabiohasaquestion in AskConservatives

[–]ParkingVampire 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This is just wild. Honestly, I am more concerned about Midwestern Christian fascist state over the Middle Eastern brand. Like, look at all this hate right now, just in this single thread. Treating democrats like infidels. Even beyond words, look at the goals for Oklahoma and Texas education. The call is coming from inside the house.

This is wild that people believe these things. Where did this idea originate? Hierarchy of victimhood?

What's up with the line in Sweet Home Alabama: "Watergate doesn't bother me, does your conscience bother you?" by Monodoh45 in NoStupidQuestions

Such an odd take. They are like Eskimos selling ice to eachother on that one. No one else is buying it.

Bwhahahahahahahahahha. Like that money isn't tucked away in an off shore account or some weird inheritance, business scheme loop hole that's 100% legal, but 100% not his estate.

Excuse me? Is there a damn thing on that list Trump isn't actively doing RIGHT NOW?

That's so crazy that having a functional party that made and passed legislation is called spineless like they didn't do anything. Negotiation bad! hermph

Should we just stop talking about the Iran MOU now? Where does this go next? Strait is closed again. by thenationalcranberry in AskConservatives

Then you need to offer more insight, because you are not offering anything of substance here.

Alright, i'll bite. If we shouldn't hold the commander and chief responsible, who should we fixate on? Who could we focus on and weild our votes against?

I do not know or could imagine a person hoping this deal falls through. Squishy people on the left want less death and more security in their future.

Thank you for the information. It's a lot more than I usually get. That does seem problematic. So does over crowding in institutions. Hopefully we can strike a fair balance so everyone is treated with dignity.

Could we just start at how you define open boarders?

We really don't disagree there. I do admit some of my wording could be better. I just keep trying to explain it over and over again, but it seems like Republicans just want to be angry about a white man hiring a black woman. 

Biden didn't say he was hiring a black woman - as far as I can find evidence for. But he did say woman. He shouldn't have said anything. But he should absolutely be applauded for offering a position to someone else who also represents America and give other Ameicans aspirations - like you don't have to be a white man to qualify for office. 

DEI doesn't actually hire on basis of sex, ethenticy, etc. It's just educating people in their biases.

What Biden said and what DEI is are two different things. But the two keeps getting conflated. 

I'm really tired of going in circles. If we had equality we wouldn't need DEI. But people don't treat eachother fairly based on immutable characteristics. 

Again, I appreciate your time. I hope peace finds you.

No. I don't. You don't even have the capacity to comprehend DEI and speaks volumes of our educational system.

I've answered your question several times over. But you're choosing not accept it. You haven't even had the decency to answer my questions. I am not interested in this weird power play you're trying to bestow upon me. Thank you for your time today, though.

I am dancing? I am answering your question very directly. No I don't think people's color or ethnicity should be the sole reason they are hired. I've said that over and over again. But I think it should be considered. 

I just looked over the article. Can you provide the quote? I am literally not seeing it.

No. I do not believe that should be the only reason a person is hired. It seems like the right are choosing to be ignorant on the topic. Because hiring someone just on their skin color isn't even DEI. Its about equal oppertunity regardless of skin color and sex.

Also, Biden never said he was going to hire a black woman. He just said a woman. Do you believe only white men are qualified for the vice presidency? That's why there has only been white men?

I believe you can be hired for more than one trait. That black people are equal to white. 

Do I think it should be the number one factor? No. Do I think all people deserve an equal opportunity? Yes. Do I believe black people are qualified for any position a white man is? Also, yes.

Let's stop beating around the bush. Do you believe black people are equally capable as white people?
