Nah. There are “liberals” who view their authoritarianism as justified and they are serious. They are not republicans who are trolling. Just look at what is happening in New Mexico today. Democratic governor banned all guns, in violation of the constitution.
feel like everyone in the working classes blue and white are being squeezed
America is not homogeneous. I live in a low cost of living area and make 100k. I have very few real issues. I can easily afford my home. It’s not that everyone has it bad, it’s that most people want to live in the same handful of areas and there is not enough housing in those areas to meet the demand. So the price goes up. Many people are choosing to be squeezed and they do not like this being pointed out.
arguing with people that thought they knew more than I did about a field I’ve worked in for 20+ years.
LOL. Yea, I work in IT and have to listen to boomers tell me about their 30 years of IT experience and why I’m wrong.
They mistake 30 year old experience that is no longer relevant with practical experience that is relevant today. It’s a subtle but important difference. In my experience, the people who have to prove themselves by telling you about how much experience they have are the least competent.
Results will dictate how competent you are. Not how much experience you claim to have.
No, it’s not. Racism is very simple.
No. Racism is prejudice based on skin color. Please consult your closest dictionary. To be clear, there are lots of social problems, and there are different words to describe those problems. You want to redefine racism because you want to be racist towards white people.
Racism is prejudice based on skin color.
Pot, meet kettle. It was a racist comment. Calling people who are offended by racism “thin skinned” is telling.
Reporting racism is not abuse. You must be one of them racists we need to report.
You are seeing the vocal minority on the other side of the spectrum from the alt-right. You are not allowed to talk about anything else until all of NYC is public apartments, all roads are converted to bike paths, and all lawns are filled in with gravel. This is not an exaggeration. That is what they really want. And they will suffocate every discussion until it happens. They lack emotional intelligence and critical thinking.
