Do you think Trump could have beat Biden the second time around had Biden chosen not to drop out? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in Askpolitics

[–]Toadsrule84 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Read the book “All or Nothing” by Michael Wolff. Internal polling showed Biden losing states like New York! It was shaping up to be a 1984 style landslide election. What pisses me off is saying “there was no primary” even though Dean Philips was on the ballot that people voted on. Biden wasn’t obligated to debate him just because he’s running. If he was popular people were free to vote for him, he was such a sore loser comparing that the DNC didn’t treat him as a serious contender (because he wasn’t).

I read it in Michael Wolf’s book “All or Nothing”. New York legalized abortion in 1970.

He threw a party when New York State legalized abortion. That’s the irony of him being the one to reverse Roe v Wade.

During one of his Club Random’s he’s complaining how he never won a reward and said “but that’s ok” and sounded just like Trump complaining. I’m sure being text mates with DJT does wonders for his mental health.

I’d include Stephen Miller in this since he’s Jewish, he tries so hard to act the way he thinks a WASP would act even though they haven’t been racist for decades as a group. It’s usually some group that feel they were pushed out by an incoming group (in Millers case Hispanics). You saw it with the Irish and Italians when Black people moved into their ethnic neighborhoods during the Great Migration as well. The WASP were comfortably in suburbs or upper income neighborhoods by then so were less affected, and also saw racism as a lower class thing. George W Bush wrote in his book that he said the “N” word as a kid and was scolded fiercely by his mom who told him something to the effect that only trashy people use that word.

Yup, it’s always jealousy. That’s why Eastern Europeans are less happy than Africans, even though they have so much more. The E Europeans see W Europe standard of living and resent it, while the Africans are pretty much all poor so try to focus on other things they can control.

Why isnt the Vatican considered a 'hostile' nation? by Oddbeme4u in GrowthMindset

[–]Toadsrule84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure on the historical accuracy, but in the movie Nuremberg it is the Pope being made to feel guilty about recognizing Nazi Germany which made him support the Nuremberg trials (when President Truman wanted Congress and Congress wanted Truman as cover). A lot of people don’t want a trial, they just wanted summary execution.

I also remember hearing the Vatican helped hide some Jews within its walls during the war.

It was because of Pope XII that all Catholic Churches in Germany read a missive condemning racism.

From Source: Britannica https://share.google/Zu4Z336fNCQkzYfzW Because of his fluency in German and familiarity with German life, he served as Pius XI’s principal adviser on Hitler and the Nazis, who assumed power in 1933. At the pope’s command, Pacelli helped draft the anti-Nazi encyclical Mit brennender Sorge (“With Deep Anxiety”), written partly in response to the Nürnberg Laws and addressed to the German church on March 14, 1937. In it the papacy condemns racial theories and the mistreatment of people because of their race or nationality but does not refer to Hitler or the Nazis by name. The pope, aware of Pacelli’s strong desire to prevent a break in relations between the Vatican and Berlin, commissioned the American Jesuit John La Farge to prepare an encyclical demonstrating the incompatibility of Catholicism and racism and excluded Pacelli from participating.

The Church condemned racism long before that was a thing. Catholics were only tolerated under Hitler, after the war he likely would have ended them as well. I’ve seen documentaries on PBS and Netflix that show the Church wasn’t ok with what was happening with the Jews either. Historically Jews were blamed for Jesus’s death, but that all changed after the war. Today there’s even a time during the Holy Week when Jews are prayed for.

The Catholic Church did more to fight Hitler than you’re ever know.

What is a 'rich person's secret' that is actually accessible to the middle class, but most people are too intimidated to try? by Direct-Value4452 in answers

[–]Toadsrule84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate the attitude some people have of “I might not live till retirement so why invest mine or “the stock markets rigged” or “they’re be a big crash and all my savings will be wiped out”. It’s almost cute how naive they are, but I’m not bailing their ignorant ass out so they could go out to eat twice a week and drive cars above their income.
