@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions And what I am saying is they are not.
The only way I could get you to understand that is if I convince you to look and see who these people are. Look at what they have done, and you won’t find it so unlikely that this is a continuation of their racial animus
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions Do you know how difficult it is to legally separate the intent of racism from the enactment of the law? The Supreme Court has called it nearly impossible without a written confession.
What we’re describing is institutionalized racism. The marriage between bigotry and law
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions I could go on, but no matter how you slice analogy, you cannot make a determination without empirical data.
If you want to determine the racial impact of this TN decision , use historical data to inform you
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions I’ll follow you here:
- what are the dog’s previous behaviors towards peanut butter and mailmen?
- has it shown aggression in the past?
- has it been rewarded for similar behavior?
Without those answers at least you cannot conclude anything about the dog’s “hatred”
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions This did not start in 2026. When were the districts created and why? Who makes up those districts and what are its geographical properties (shape)
What is the aim of the GOP as it relates to representing the opinions of the voters? How do those voters feel about other ethnicities
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions I would rather point you and leave you to your own devices.
Looking for your information will make you more receptive to it
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions Understand how race has/has not impacted Tennessee law and politics before you suggest it is not a factor.
I believe it is
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions No I don’t want you to do that. I only engaged because your profile made it appear that you were intelligent.
What I suggested is if you are trying to figure whether it is likely racially motivated or not, you can start by checking historical pretext
@Spencer_Gray@vanillaopinions You cannot evaluate the outcome of an equation without understanding the function of the parameters. To ignore the parameter of racism, will make any conclusion you draw inaccurate.
That’s like trying to calculate pressure and ignoring temperature
@Spencer_Gray@JP_Polnareff69@vanillaopinions Is there evidence to suggest it is NOT racial animus?
For hundreds of years of American history, I can point to examples of why I believe it to be racial.
But you seem to believe that you CAN strip race from this discussion.
And I’m curious why you think so
@TiffanyRog42399@ellis37928333@Timcast Walk with me here - there’s a pandemic killing people , and so the government’s plan to kill people is to pay for and pass out a vaccine that kills people 🤨
Why not just let everyone die from the china virus and blame the foreign nation?
@yupasaplean@Lani_Voices@Slorpler@mucuos I would feel like I shouldn’t engage a tank and a dps as a squishy, and heals should be reduced while you’re taking damage to prevent dps from face tanking
