Are you really suggesting that he wants to? Seriously? I don't see that this type of hyperbole adds anything to the debate and frankly, it's nothing more than divisiveness for the sake of politics.

I agree that type of hyperbole is stupid as fuck and does nothing to promote meaningful discussion, but I've read multiple people saying how they feel someone wearing a safety pin is going to make them feel uncomfortable, so fuck it, maybe he figured might as well go all in at this point, no?

The problem with that is Trump didn't relegate his statements about Hispanics to immigration. He stereotyped. That is where the xenophobia portion comes in. He did the exact same when discussing blacks. He paints with broad brushes and people that support him provide excuses for it.


He's awful. He shouldn't be President and I didn't think he had a chance to be. Politics is almost all broad brushes and it's stupid. I think all this I'm not safe, talking to my kids, and safety pin wearing is a bit much though.

The problem IMO, was there was not a candidate for the middle class. He saw that and appealed to it.

I don't know if he wants to but I do know for sure that he has historically done things which are detrimental to black people. That is what his history has demonstrated.

Obviously he is not going to attempt to place blacks in slavery but remember he is the guy that took out a $100,000 ad which advocated for death penalty in the Central Park Jogger case. Even when they were exonerated he stated that they still should be locked up because they'd probably some other crime. This is sort of in line with what he thinks when it comes to black people.

If you had any doubts that a Trump presidency threatens the establishment this kind of shit should assuage them.

It's hard for me to accept that the people--some, maybe even most--who are saying that they feel threatened are lying about it. Actually, it is easy for me to think they are lying until I talk to them and see that they are a little freaked--if not for themselves, for their relatives (in the case of undocumented people).


I don't think people are lying about how they feel. But that's what it is, feelings. It's not based on anything that is actually occurring or going to occur. Making up these phony incidents is as bad as if they actually happened. (Which one of you guys runs the Keyana Jones account? spmack? :lol: ) Trump won't be reinstating slavery and he won't be rounding up Jews. And it's a shame that people are instilling these fears into their children.

Now, with regard to undocumented people, that's another story. I'm sure many of them are very nervous, and rightfully so. Reasonable people can argue about how that issue should be addressed. Deporting every undocumented Mexican in the U.S. is simply untenable. It's idiotic. And many of these people have minor children who are U.S. citizens. Are you really going to break up families even if it was logistically possible? But the fact is these people have broken the law. I hesitate to call them criminals. I have MANY friends who are in the U.S. illegally. Most of them love the U.S. in a way that those of us who are born here don't- or can't. Still, it's pretty brazen for people who have broken the law to act as if they are the victims when someone is elected president on a platform of addressing their law breaking.

that's what they're doing--complainng because they are being called out on breaking a law....

I think white privilege is obviously real. As a white man, I understand that just through that identity I have a head start in American society. However, there have been MANY mechanisms put in place to counteract that. And the concept of "privilege-checking" has gone far beyond any reasonable conversation on equality and is now nothing more than a method to shout down and discount the opinions of others based on nothing more than what they look like.

Not to mention a self-interested (and possibly justice-interested, too; I'm not ruling that out) grab for whatever it is the privilege-checkers are after (jobs, self-esteem, whatever).

If that is the case then why did we just vote in a person from the 1% class.

I don't think that Trump is terribly concerned about changing the economic wind currents of this country. His economic advisory team is comprised of the same people found in Reagan's and Bush's administrations.

It won't be long before you begin hearing about how economic growth is spurred by investment and companies won't invest if there are high taxes and regulations. Same tired BS that they have peddling for about 40 years now.

The Corporate Subsidization racket has just been placed on steroids now.

I may have to change my nomination here. The initial reason for the thread was just because I didn't think many people knew about this, and it was essentially a meaningless gesture. Anyone who's actually offended by this is a much bigger douchebag.

I hope no one is actually offended. I just think some are rolling their eyes at this tired mostly low impact virtue signaling aka #bring backourgirls

QC Pat probably pierced his cock with a safety pin thinking it gives him a better shot with Lindy West.

Maybe Maverick Carter and the posse can link him up with the Urlacher treatment and a suit he didn't get from Joakim Noah.
