The left and DEI -- look no further than the DNC

[grandhavendiddy]

@kalimgoodman

You say that it is the right that is solely obsessed with DEI and being "Woke".

Wrong. Look no further, and the Hill is no Fox & Friends, OAN, etc. network.

It is the left. Trump is just (to his credit) undoing it.

You know that proved my point LMAO. They were responding to Trump alleged racist rhetoric. So that MEANS that the right was talking about race/gender, etc and they (the left) JOINED a conversation.

@kalimgoodman wut?

 

[grandhavendiddy]

@kalimgoodman - like what are you smoking man? Did you watch the video? Capehart posed the question to the panel starting with, "given all of the racism and sexism that was faced in the 2024 election, how would you propose to...".

The person who responded tried to bring it back to working class economic issues, but even framed it with terms like "Economic Justice".

So much for abandoning "NPR language" as was suggested by many.

For Republicans and MAGA, this is a gift as the Democratic Party continues to operate as if they are having a 400 level seminar at Vassar.

Hmmm so 400 level seminars at Vassar are based on false narratives?

Let me see if I understand the BS you are TRYING to push. Trump is racist...but BIG TIME increased his % of black and Latino voters...WAY more than ANY republican in our Nations history. Is that what you are trying to proclaim here? Try again..you FAILED

Possibly, lol

Well WTF is this then??

The question is on who is initiating discussions or thoughts on CRT, DEI, Identify politics. Kalim's assertion is that the left has deprecated these discussions and it is only the right that talks about it.

I then post from the DNC selection where Capehart literally posits, unprompted, that Kamala lost due to Racism and Misogyny. There was no prompting from Fox news, Trump, etc.

I happen to like Kalim - but damn, my guy, just admit to how your side has gone off the rails.

As Scott Jennings (who is turning into a real G, by the way) said, "The Democrats are now employing the worst political strategy of pursuing the most esoteric 20% and ignoring the 80%."

As a patriotic American, I love what @kalimgoodman and the left are doing. Please continue.

Yep, it's like they're trying to lose. Let's pick the least popular positions on the least popular issues and die on those hills. Just a bizarre strategy.

1. They think THEY are right, and we are wrong

2. They still have ZERO understanding why they lost the 2024 election. NOT ONE CLUE. They think their wide open sprint to the left is the right thing to do,

If they admit they were wrong about their politics, that means they are admittin that TRUMP WAS RIGHT.

For libs, their total sense of self-worth is tied to their politics. If they admit their politics are worthless, they are in essence admitting to themselves that THEY are worthless.

And add in TRUMP WAS RIGHT on top of it.

They just can't do it.

Not that I give two (radio edit) about bending a knee or anything, and someone whom I have had a number of issues with over the years, but Trump 2.0 is perhaps the most energized I have ever felt about politics and the direction of our country perhaps since 1992/1996, Clinton - who, was not much different than Trump is (policy wise) now (AFTER Dick Morris told him what to do to get re-elected PLUS working with Newt G.)

Funny thing is, none of what he is doing now is a surprise to Trump's hardcore supporters. He's literally going down the checklist of things he always promised to do.

It's why I could never understand why he didn't have 100% support on the right, and why so many kept getting upset about his 'mannerisms'.

Ah well, when the smoke clears in 4 years, everyone will love Trump. This truly is only the beginning.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I've said that Dems are off the rails on plenty of topics. I've also said that I don't agree with plenty of things that they support. YOU guys are the ones that operate in a space that the Rs can do no wrong. I have no allegiance to any party. I will criticize them both. No party is perfect. Just do a search and you will see that was my stance from day 1 on this political side of the board.

You guys went from hating on RFK to now liking him because he's in Trump cabinet. I am sure you guys will start to like Eric Adams. You guys were just loving Fetterman because he was trending to becoming an R. Quite hilarious for sure lol.

RFK is a nutcase….. but if Health and Human Services gets crashed and burned, what have we really lost?

Eric Adams was getting railroaded by the Dems because he stepped out of line; seeing the immigration issue was tilting out largest city towards insolvency. He’s still a dyed in wool lib, but folk have to work together to solve problems.

Fetterman is trying to triangulate to the middle - he’s sees the writing on the wall in Penn. He knows what plays in Pittsburgh, Lancaster and York

My point - made clearly in video is that the DNC and the Progressive Left, NOT the republicans are leading and have been leading with "Racism and Sexism" and "DEI/Critical Race Theory".

You do criticize the left. That is true.

RFK Jr. is an interesting figure. Part of his MAHA stance I like. A general skepticism around big pharma, big government and science is "healthy". Look no further than the Covid debacle.

His other stances on proven vaccines are dangerous. And he is profiting off of lawsuits, as a Kennedy. With inherited Millions. Come on.

Eric Adams, to his credit, was the first one to call out the illegal immigration insanity of Biden/Harris. He got pulled out of the DNC and then had (surprise, surprise) law suits against him. He also called out against the insanity of Defund the Police.

Fetterman is tacking the middle. It's interesting - and yes, necessary in a 2026/2028 election.

The video showed an open forum discussing topics. One of the topics was about Trump alleged racist comments. I am not saying it was or wasn't racist, but they discussed it. To say that the Dems are bringing it up, when they are RESPONDING, is an interesting choice. Trust that I have no issues calling them out or calling them looney. I don't care for any of them. There is nobody in Democratic leadership that I like. They all suck to me personally but I feel the same about the Rs.

Grand, you believe in a right-wing lie about Adams, plenty of people called out how Biden was dealing with immigration. He was just corrupt. That's the only reason he was charged. Ill never understand why people like to make excuses for people illegal choices. FYI, Biden also called out defund the police and the democratic party never adopted it. It was more of something the activist wanted them to adopt but they didn't.

My point was about RFK and co, is that once they support Trump or kiss up to him, you guys change your opinion on them, which proves how much you guys actually mean what you say.

Liberalism as a philosophy is selfish and narcissistic. Asking these people to reflect on why they lost the election goes against every fiber of their being. If they could self reflect, they wouldn’t be liberals.

If there was someone that you used to disagree with (RFK), and they (RFK) have changed their opinion to match yours, then naturally you’d now agree with them (RFK), changing your opinion on said person. That’s more common sense than politics

YOU guys are the ones that operate in a space that the Rs can do no wrong.

How many times have you complained about us calling out RINOs? You cry about it every time it happens.

Yet now you are claiming we never call out pubs?

You are not a serious poster.
