I believe that the Democrat platform and policies are there for the purposes of achieving fairness and justice,

Well, you can also “believe” in one hand and shit in the other to see which fills up faster. You’ll still be wrong though.

I offer this as an example of racism and identity politics from the left:

Do you think that this is a realistic representation of the 'lefties' on this site? Or of the mainstream Democratic party?

Uh yeah? Is there a Democrat stance on any major issue that doesn't involve race? Seriously from immigration, education, jobs, to the economy as a whole. It's always tinged with "race" in some way.

Tinged with race. Immigration, education, jobs. Oh, the horror. The Republicans of course would never bring race into it.

I would just like to say that those whose primary definition of themselves involves race/culture are epitome of walking dead. None of us had anything to do with these things, we were born into them. We have more of a choice in selecting our favorite sports teams, not to mention our accomplishments.

justme/jazz, you don't see a problem with seeing race in EVERYTHING?

The only person who is extremely easy to identify as anon is/was CIC. The rest, you are guessing wildly at, and distracting from the conversation.

Non-identity issues for Dems: Environment, quality of life for working class and poor (through programs like minimum wage, education programs, tax code, etc.), health care for more, global peace through cooperation (globalization) and demilitarization, winning through promotion of environmental research and jobs. There are places where individuals within the party differ or stray from the majority of the party, but these are some differences off the top of my head. Look at the platform here: https://www.democrats.org/party-platform, and explain how race is dominant there? Race affects some issues, but this is not the web site of some identity group.

How about beer? Can I pick the beer I like? Keep seeing all these Bud Light commercials and I feel like that's the only choice. Sarcasm end.

Well quality of life has been conflated with gender inequality by the Dems, so yes they might not pull the race card out all the time, but they have a lot of other damaging cards they can pull too.

The "It's OK To be White" campaign are a group of Socialist that admit they want to bring Trump down.

Zimmerman.

When he shot Trayvon the Burglar*, he magically became Whiter than Whitebread, even though he was half Inca.

* Hundreds of dollars of women's gold jewelry was found in his school locker; Miami Authorities kept it on the D/L to gin down the student crime statistics, as a result it took years for the couple that was robbed to get their shit back. The MSM avoided this issue. Also his mother was a ho bag who was completely uninvolved with him and he didn't even live at home half the time, she didn't even know what her own son LIKED. She was like "Airplanes?", so yeah they named some Aeronautical program after him but we don't really know if he ever liked Airplanes, all his friends were like "Trayvon? Airplanes? Uh, nooo..."

TwoScoopsMcGee says

Also his mother was a ho bag who was completely uninvolved with him and he didn't even live at home half the time, she didn't even know what her own son LIKED.

In that case, it's no big loss. Is that what you meant, or did you have something else in mind?

Goran_K says

Well quality of life

The quality of life that I was referring to was a fair tax code, decent education, and decent minimum wage. Yeah, they've also been going for gender equality in pay, and their data is probably biased. But that's not been the Dem's major push, and if it does come to the forefront, the bias will get tested and the goals will be shifted.

YesYNot says

No one is saying it's "no big loss" but Leftist media painted a completely different picture of who Trayvon was (they even resorted to using a picture of Trayvon that was 3-4 years old to make him look younger), and they also painted the character of Zimmerman with half-truths and non-facts.

Do you disagree that this was the case?

Goran_K says

Is the media looking through the list of people murdered in a TX church, and seeing who was in debt, had children out of wedlock, or who had a ho for a mother? Are they publishing that information? Is it relevant to the fact that they were murdered? Should they report that stuff? I'd say that it is not relevant and they should not report it. But, for some reason, certain types of people want to find excuses in these high profile cases where black people were killed. Trayvon had a ho for a mother? Really? What conclusion am I supposed to draw from that? I seriously don't know. Why should the media report that?

The people in the Church were innocent. Trayvon was not.

The media in Trayvon's case did the exact opposite of what you're describing, they tried to white wash his actions that night and villify the actual victim, which was Zimmerman. They tried to paint Martin as "some kid going to school, young, innocent stalked by some crazy white guy" and like Sniper pointed out, even the president tried to liken him to his imaginary son. All because Martin was Black, that's what the leftist media machine does. Need I bring up "Clock boy"?

Here's a fact. If Trayvon had not tried to beat Zimmerman to death, he would be alive right now.

Do you have any proof of this?

Do you have any proof of this?

The case was decided in the court of law, and Zimmerman's use of force was found valid in front of a jury of his peers.

Lol - you blame the lefty mainstream party vs patnetters, then 2 seconds later offer up mugshots of unknown origin... obviously no mainstream leftie source compiled that - it clearly was some alt leftie (or alt rightie) playing divide & conquer.

Don't you see what's going on here? Outside of NPR which does do quite a bit of identity stuff - no legitimate source would compile a mugshot list like that.

Don't let the meme generators and dupers of the world trigger u with that crap. Someone on the radical fringe is playing you like a fiddle. Don't let them.

Back then racism was real and deadly-Rosa parks had immense courage to do what she did. Today's defnition of leftie racism is a multimillioare 1% Colin kapernick raised in white household being the equivalent of Rosa Parks.

That is what is wrong. I am a non white person with white people under me. Do I go scream white privilege to them???
Society ahs changed.

Just like women's issues. Women could not vote, could not own property and if a man threw his wife and family away-they could not support themselves. So ti made sense at that time for alimony and child support. But now slut becomes a cum dumpster , has a bukake party and has ten men banging her ina wild gangbang and if the sperm that got her pregannt belongs to some sports star-she gets millions of dollars in tax free child support for the next 18 years. In some states you prove by DNA that is not your child-you still pay millions of dollars in child support -best interest of child or some such crap.

That is why the left has become an empty vessel with no ideas and screaming banshees whose embodiment is trigglypuff. they don't think want everyone to pay for them and are just nuts.When Charlotsville happened, nobody on the right rejoiced, but when country music fans in LV were slaughtered-lefties rejoiced because they might have been trump voters. I mean how much more subhuman can you get. The left has gone nuts and it takes someone like Donald Trump to get past their demagoguery and hate. God Bless him and may he soldier on bring us out of the hate and darkness of the left.

I meant, "Oh he was a nice boy, mother devoted, was gonna be an airport manager, etc. etc." is 120% bullshit. 24k baloney.

His own father refused to be involved with him because he thought the mother was unfaithful. She was too busy being a BBW on dating sites to give him any attention, either.

That's all I'm saying - the kid was abused and was almost certainly bound for prison one way or another. Because Ghetto Bitches mistreat their boys. Their shitty, horrible mothers and all of them don't work for a living and any of them could leave the hood, there is plenty of Sec 8 outside of it, but they don't because they like the Gangster Lean, so they expose their kids to a shitty life because Pussy Tingles.

He had to be an OG. Because the bitches around him like that, he saw mom and his female peers in action. He was on the phone with a BBW Cumdumpster at the time.

Democrats & Republicans are guilty on mass stupidity.
Proof:
128838176 total D & R popular Presidental votes.

"Here's your sign."

Between you guys: Zimmerman was proven innocent, because he was not found guilty. Yet, Trayvon tried to beat Zimmerman to death (fact), despite not being found guilty of such behavior. I presume most of you believe that OJ is guilty despite being found not guilty. Zimmerman's behavior since the Trayvon killing has proven that he's got many loose screws for brains and is a menace to society.

You cannot make posts like this and then be taken seriously when you complain that other people engage in identity politics.

Zimmerman was doing God’s work because Martin was certainly plotting nefarious things with the skittles and the sprite...obviously hopped up on Marihuana.

It’s simply a big juicy conspiracy that the same people auto-exonerate the police Every.Single.Time they are involved in questionable conduct resulting in harm to any citizen.

Obviously he was a criminal...he was black, duh. But quit with your SJW’ing and identity politics. The Left is a dangerous Cancer. I find comfort in God and his chosen Republican soldiers. I feelz that they put aside personal interest for helping me. Liberals ruined everything, while Conservatives are sacrificing sleep and prayer and worship time to do Gods Work fighting off the brown savages

You think OJ is innocent?

It's left for sure, their whole mantra is "diversity" and every race should get equal outcomes based on race, not on effort and ability of any sort. And it is only left who screams racism non-stop, it is left who constantly parades stupid racial nonsense.

zzyzzx says

I doubt it, but I never made the argument that a 'not guilty' finding is proof of innocence. Team Red made that claim in this thread, and nobody (including you) thought it worth refuting.
