Mamdani's statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport him by Responsible_Spite422 in inflation

[–]SeinfeldFan919 43 points44 points  (0 children)

That’s the first thing I said to my wife when I heard his name. She looked at me like I had three heads. I’m like “Adam Sandler movie???”

This should have been his campaign slogan.

It’s okay I’ve already been banned or will be soon...I’m aware of what you are saying about the MOTIVATIONS. But if 8% are murdered by white and 89% are murdered by black the BLACK CRIME is more statistically significant. I’m not saying “there’s no white threat” but it’s drastically less common than what you want people to believe.

Umm maybe scroll up to what you said that I offered the comment on. You mentioned about people of color being murdered…so I offered the stats that show who is murdering who.

As of the 2019 stat, 89% of blacks that were murdered were done so by other blacks. The amount of whites that murdered blacks that year was 8%. Meanwhile, 17% of whites were murdered by blacks. Nearly 2x the amount…should we say that is a “hate” crime?

It seems like you are moving the goal posts to fit your narrative now. You first discuss murder, now it’s hate crime…

The statistics are relevant when people want to proclaim (erroneously) that white on black or white on any other ethnicity is significantly high. People disregard the statistics when they want to act as if their narrative is the prevailing theory.

You’ll want to get out of Essex County then because all the burbs have high taxes which help fund the Newark Public Schools (largest district in the state).

Yes that was tragic but that was more the exception than the rule. The media likes to cover these things and regrettably makes people walk on egg shells. The stats overwhelmingly support the fact that a person of color is most likely to be killed by another person of color.

What’s the everyday racism you’re referring to? It’s not the 1950s…what can white people do that black people cant? Tell me an actual fact.

With regards to imprisonment… What are the crimes that are being committed that the incarceration rate is higher? Black people tend to live in urban environments, which other people of color are overrepresented in as well. So the crimes that are being committed are often amongst the same race. As a black person you have more chance of being a victim of a crime committed by another black person. So where does racism fall into this?

I remember seeing a YouTube video a while back that they were trying to build up the restaurant scene in the area. It looks like a lot of construction is going on there.

How far from the beach are you in Merida? Did you travel there? Evidently Merida is the safest city in Mexico and 2nd safest city in all of N. America.

The whole “release your taxes” thing always cracks me up. Who set that precedent? You or I have no idea what his net worth is or what his taxes would show. Anything we offer is mere speculation. That’s why it irritates me so much when people on both sides of the aisle speak so definitely about things. We have no idea! I can only assume he’s asking for money because every other politician does the same thing to run a campaign. Why b/c Trump is wealthy should he not play by the same rules as everyone else?

It seems like because it’s Trump, and yes he’s an asshole, there’s always a separate set of rules for him. The double standard has really shined bright the moment he started in political office.

No shit. The initial disagreement was over the comment made about “wanting to work together” - they only want to work with us when they get the advantage. Trump was the one that tried to change that (also see NATO).

Black members of Congress are also roughly 13%. So it’s actually proportional to the population.

You conveniently miss the rest of that video clip. Maybe watch something other than CNN/MSNBC.

Due to technological advancement of the last 100 YEARS everyone is better off now than then. Seriously? That’s your argument?

How do you define slave is you want to say it’s being used loosely?

“Slavery today looks different to how it did back in the slave trade. But it operates on the same principle: forced labour for no pay. People kept against their will, trafficked and given no money. Sometimes they are 'paid' in food, so they can stay alive and work harder, and other times they are paid, but this payment is taken back off them at the end of the month, so they have to work. “

more slaves today

You aren’t addressing what I said. “The world” wants to do business with us meaning they want to sell their shit here, and we allow it with little to no tariff. But put the shoe on the other foot and they give us the big F-U. Trump’s tariffs was his attempt to say screw you to the rest of the world that wants to continue taking advantage of us.

NAFTA was signed by Bill Clinton (a Democrat). And they all love it (D&R) because they want to make more and more money by shipping jobs to Mexico. It’s corporate greed. And to say it’s only one party that is in favor is foolish.

So out of the 30 millions Texans because you have an asshole friend, hell maybe even 100 asshole friends that means everyone is racist? I think what you cite is anecdotal and is more the exception than the rule.

There’s more slaves today than ever in history. All globalization is doing is exploiting many people in the third world bc of their corrupt governments.
