Ah cool. I also like the Mariah Carey version of the song I posted.
So that's what we've come to? Calling people with differing political opinions "morons"?
What about Obama in '08?
You live in a red state, probably.
It's never too early or late of Halloween!
2009: District 9
That's all I got.
Knowing Trump, I doubt it.
King of a constitutional monarchy (a la UK).
I didn't make those words though!
Clear skies, light breezes, 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit.) Sounds like a perfect dream.
Yeah, I get what you mean about Harris and Walz.
I guess the takeaway is that most "mainstream" U.S. politicians are right-wing, Democrat or Republican.
Interesting. Perhaps they reflect a different side of your political beliefs which you aren't aware of.
This bitch probably has me on ignore, since I never see her reply to my posts and topics, but I'm just going to comment anyway:
One-Drop rule. If you've got any substantial Black or African ancestry, you're Black. It's been that way in the 19th Century and still applies today.
I gave this topic a little bit of thought, and I think this "discrepancy" is due to <i>context</i> and the <i>connotation</i> to which a person uses the term "DEI".
When DEI supporters use the term, we use it with the connotation which like you said we consider a good thing. DEI stands for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion which we consider good things for organizations to have.
DEI opponents however, don't use the term is a positive manner, which is why it seems derisive when they call someone a DEI hire. They are against diversity, equity, and inclusion so when applying these concepts they don't like to people it's going to be seen as negative.
Hard to explain, but the key concepts with my post is context and connotation.
2. How racist are we talking?

He said there's going to be a "bloodbath". Take that as you will.

Ah, that sucks.
Awesome!
