@BLAQ0226 Nope. I don't draw the line at helping people who need it on some imaginary line. If I had the choice to keep all my tax money to myself, the people I cut off wouldnt stop at immigrants. Broke ass citizens of any race who arent disabled or elderly would be on their own too.
@sonofteamster@AuthorRandallB Stop using the hyperbole excuse to allow lies. We arent talking about telling some story to friends at a bar and using hyperbole to make it funny. We're talking about issues where the facts matter. Trump is FOS and takes credit every day for victories that never happened.
@Rjguti1978@AuthorRandallB@Davis0560 Everyone supported that crime bill. The majority of the time someone complains about that bill, they are either young and don't remember the shit that was going on or they were one of the people doing the shit that made us need it.
@gravesend60@EricLDaugh Nobody is fooled. We just understand how math works. Let's say the lie that illegals are voting is true. If they are voting Dem and we vote Dem, it doesnt drown us out. It drowns out republicans. It actually increases the odds of the candidate that we want winning.
@DJG6940@cwebbonline What are you talking about? There's no DEI in grade school. Everyone is admitted. Try focusing on something that actually has an impact like most kids in the US having a cellphone in their pocket by age 11 that can do their work for them and many get them younger than that.
@DJG6940@cwebbonline We already did and nothing has been destroyed. Companies happily hire black and brown now. Mission accomplished. The DEI isnt even necessary any more but it was to get us to this point. Now that companies know we can perform and excel, the white male only structure is broken.
@DJG6940@cwebbonline Unfortunately, when you have to correct issues on that scale, some innocents get hurt. Hiroshima. Nagasaki. The sanctions we have on Iran...do you think its the rich leadership thats starving or the poor citizens who have no say so? Collateral damage is a part of life.
@DJG6940@cwebbonline DEI was a necessary correction at the time it was implemented because the previous system was also not based on merit. It gave white males preference over everyone. Had that not been the case, DEI would never have been needed.
@DJG6940@cwebbonline That isnt an assumption. White women are the largest demographic based on the being women, not their skin color.
I agree with the merit statement but even the people saying they are implementing merit based policies don't follow them.
