SoCal Deek

Please tell us what will work with you. We’ve tried everything…but you simply won’t go away. Is there a secret button?

Please tell us who the brave ones are. Is it you? Are you the brave one?

CNN has been bleeding viewers on their free service and some executive ‘genius’ thought this was the perfect time to ask those same four viewers to pay extra to watch the same crap they already weren’t watching for free? Brilliant!

Why are you just watching? Put a Ukrainian flag in your front lawn! That’ll do it. 😉

Oh crap! I REALLY wanted to pay money to hear what Dr Fauchi has to say about masks!

Let me see if I understand. Our elected officials have OVER SPENT by over $30 TRILLION and they want to blame the taxpayers? Hey Congress! Push back from the blackjack table… you’re marker isn’t good here anymore!

How sad. Remember those days well…and never knew he was from Clovis, a suburb of Fresno. I’m actually speaking at a conference in Clovis today and tomorrow. Go figure!

Humans have no inherent need to be racist. They do however have an inherent need to survive and sustain themselves. Are you humans tribal? Yes. Are they then by definition racist? To a point maybe, but the tribalism is the driving criteria…not racism.

And….You respond with more name calling. Classic!

The fact that you post a Rodney Dangerfield meme suggests you’re much older than the junior high like responses you typically author on here…..which makes your every day juvenile name calling even more curious. Grow up!

I’ll say it again…this is beyond ridiculous now! What our fearless and feeble leader forecasted as a small incursion has now gone on for two months with MILLIONS of innocent people fleeing their homes and HUNDREDS of buildings destroyed all over a large country. What the heck is going one here? Where are the adults? Where are the world’s diplomats? What are any of these people good for? Either get involved and stop this madness or get out and let it run it’s course. But to suggest you give a rats arse about the existential threat to ‘democracy’ while you dribble in the least amount of support as politically correctly possible while all the while buying gas from the aggressor is beyond pathetic.

So you just stay out of it altogether. What we’re doing now is ridiculous.

They wouldn’t use them ! Which is why our response to this unprovoked attack on a sovereign country has been nothing short of pathetic.

I completely disagree. We’re watching a pretty nice country be shelled to dust for NOTHING….and not a single nuclear weapon has left the launch pad.

So we’re paying millions and millions of my tax dollars for satellites and so called intelligence and we didn’t know their capabilities? Really? I’m guessing we actually did, and nobody wanted to say it. Far easier for the military industrial complex to sell arms if they can convince the legislature that Russia is a super power.

You’re living in a time warp. Would you suggest that nobody in the US travel to Germany? Should Germany not be a member of NATO? That nation’s racially motivated extermination plan resulted in the murder of millions of innocent people…and all of that happened in just the last century. Do we ask Germany to take a knee at the Olympic Games? At the World Cup? Where is ANY of this going? There are no slave owners alive today and a good portion of the United States wasn’t even part of the country during the Civil War. And…a good portion of the part that was actually fought and DIED to confront and defeat it. Enough already!!!!

Let’s say it was….now skip ahead in your textbook and you’ll see that the non racist side WON!!!

Wait…what? Adam Schiff swore that they did find it! He saw it with his own eyes.

Did anyone say something else? Where you’re getting pushback is that I believe many on here think you’re pushing the notion that the south was desperate to institutionalize “racism”. While similar, it’s not the same.

I assume you mean nuclear weapons?

So I guess the question is why doesn’t the west seem to know that?

Holding slaves was not without cost to the slave owner. They provided clothing, housing, food, etc. That doesn’t make it good, but the labor wasn’t free. There’s clearly some truth to that but I think this entire debate is akin to the chicken and the egg. I’ve yet to read a single opinion on here defending either slavery or racism…so I remain confused as to what you want anyone to say.

That's true....but it was not created to perpetuate some deep seated racism. As someone else here already said, it based on the economics of needing cheap labor. Which is the same reason why the Jewish people were forced to build bricks for Pharaoh. It's been the same with different people(s) all throughout history. With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, and the significant lessening of the need for a large, manual labor force....things have changed. It's pretty simple really.

The vast vast majority of people are moving to get far away from the California politics.

You do understand there’s a difference between slavery and racism….right?
