US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Urban areas are stasticially less safe compared to suburban areas.

Saying that is racist. I don't make the rules, so don't shoot the messenger.

The real question is: how does one fix it? For starters, acknowledging the faults and finding vital solutions to it.

Okay, crime is up. Hire more police, enact tough but fair DAs, look at situations on a case by case basis. Admit that X person did Y and leave it at that.

Wow just wow, you mean empower systemic racism and put even more BIPOC in jail? Do you not realize that black men already go to prison at disproportionally high rates? Let that sink in. Sounds like someone needs a few weeks at a DEI seminar.

I don't think it is just a Manpower issue, I think there are also some rather large procedural issues because this is all happening in Commiefornia which is a Branch Covidian state so it has all those rules and restrictions to deal with.

Yeah, IIRC the manpower issues is a direct result of procedural issues or something.

It's more trouble than it's worth to sit on a dock all day, or having to go through a bunch of Covid hoops to cross state lines or something like that, so the truckers said fuck it.

Regardless, mine the salt. I have Roman legionnaires to pay.

Just what the Empire needs, another vainglorious general proclaiming himself Augustus and diverting legions from the Rhine frontier.

 

[The Last Stand]

you're racist. Full stop. You have to believe that black neighborhoods are just as safe as white neighborhoods to not be racist.

It wasn't like that in the turn of the century. Poverty ridden, sure. But when drugs hit, they hit hard.

 

[The Ugly One]

It wasn't like that in the turn of the century. Poverty ridden, sure. But when drugs hit, they hit hard.

You have to believe blacks don't commit crimes today, right now, to not be considered racist.

Also, relatively speaking, black areas have always had higher crime rates than white areas, whether the turn of the century you're talking about is 2000 or 1900. The War on Poverty (which was really the War on Lower Class Marriages) made things much, much worse.

For the early 20th century, you had outright bigotry with the government, society and policing to think for that. Even so, Black people managed to pull together to make do, hence the Civil Rights movement. The turn of the century I'm referring to the War on Drugs, the 70s-80s.

 

[X Prime]

I'm not sure the Civil Rights movement qualifies as "making do."

Call it what it was: wholesale annihilation of the American way of life through empowering the federal government to an oppressive degree over the past 50 years to placate a loud minority.

Do not tell me you were fine with the idea of segregation and racial discrimination because one group was affected.

Who am I to second-guess a lot of pro-segregation sentiment amongst college age blacks today?

Oh, NOW I see where I muddied up.

I'm not sure the Civil Rights movement qualifies as "making do."

"Making do," I'm speaking in the sense of making something of yourself. There was actual discrimination and political violence with Blacks in 20th century America. I say "making do" with conservative Blacks preserving family values, hard work, and determination. Not accepting the status quo of the Negro being a lesser being than a White male on account of skin tone.

Tell me that Civil Right activists would be okay with having all their work tarnished with new age activism. Even MLK Jr. is not considered Black enough.

MLK Jr. was a grifter, as was many of the rest of them. All anyone needs to do to see that is to see how the Congressional Black Caucus and similar figures have enriched themselves by wearing the mantle of civil rights activist.

Of course they wouldn't be okay with is; assuming the best intentions and character of those activists specifically. But that didn't mean jack and shit for Malcolm X, who realized eventually where this firebrand rhetoric was taking the Black community and identity. He was cannibalized by the monster he created the very moment he tried to wind it back.

You're being too charitable. Remember when John Lewis lied about never seeing Bernie Sanders fighting for civil rights, even when there was a picture of the two standing together during a march?

The Civil Rights activists who made it big, much like the BLM activists of today, were in it for the money and the clout. They are establishment stooges and that incident was the supreme proof.

We've reached full circle. MLK Jr. is considered too passive for the Woke and too radical for conservatives (or whatever you identify as.) Never mind that civil rights was co-opted by opportunists and shysters in the 80s, leading up to now.

But that didn't mean jack and shit for Malcolm X, who realized eventually where this firebrand rhetoric was taking the Black community and identity.

Malcolm X was radical through prison teaching with the NOI, up until Sunni Islam convinced him to look at race differently. It was too late when what he conspired turned on him.

The Civil Rights activists who made it big, much like the BLM activists of today, were in it for the money and the clout.

Wait a minute, I've heard this before:

I feel like there's something even more sinister at play here.

One thing has become very apparent in the last 60 years: black women now hate black men. Listen to damn near ANY black woman talking about a black man, and it's open disrespect and hatred. I've listened to black women say that smiling is offensive to them. They say that all black men are cheaters and woman beaters when men and women cheat at roughly the same rate (25%) and even the CDC states that women commit more domestic violence BECAUSE they know men won't hit them back. I've seen black women laugh at black men with the typical cubicle office job, calling them sell-outs, then date the Pookies and Ray-Ray drug dealers because they get the fast money, then act bitter because no shit the drug dealers are going to pump and dump them? 50% of black men are single and childless, another 30-40% are married or divorced, yet SEVENTY percent of children are raised by single mothers?

The government gibs have made this worse. The gibs prioritize SINGLE black mothers. Black women are literally paid by the government NOT to stay with their husbands or partners. I've listened to black 20-year-old women talk about their plans for the future needing to take care of their children as a single mother, AND THEY HAVEN'T EVEN MET THEIR BABY DADDY YET!!! Black women spend more time on their "backup plans" (i.e. weave-selling career) than on actually being a good partner which they CLAIM is what they want.

Literally the act of being married is oppressive to black women; I don't mean the "Stepford wife" 1950s stereotype, I mean literally being married is oppressive because then they aren't "independent." 80% of divorces coming from the women, usually within 5 years. Then black women get mad when they get to their 40s and the men she used to call sellouts don't want to be a stepdaddy to Pookie's kids despite the fact that she's openly still trashing black men.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just rambling and going down too many Youtube rabbit holes. But I live in a blue state, and I've never met a black woman 25+ that I would even be interested in getting to know better. They are all loud, angry, and masculine stereotypes where I live.

That's why I said 'assuming the best intentions and character'. I gave them at least the benefit of the doubt in that mythical scenario, while generally believing that civil rights activism has become a tool for the most shiftless and crafty niggers ( preachers and organizers ) to fatten themselves at the expense of their own people. I'm also exhausted with pretending to care about those same people content to be used and never thinking beyond.

Dresses like a man, dresses like an old lady.

What, women cannot wear pants?

Reading comprehension. Read what I said once more.

That is just a manifestation of the same thing that happened after the Civil Rights movement won. Nearly every group was saying "wait, aren't these changes being rammed through too fast?" as the government was systematically obliterating freedom of association.

The black community just wanted more and wanted it done even faster. Black women have internalized that wanting more and wanting it faster is the way to get things.

As I repeatedly say, read the Age of Entitlement. Pretend I posted that one Boondocks clip.

I partly blame the modern feminist movement WITH the victim mentality that destroyed the Black family unit. Compare families then in the 20th century to now. No structure, no rules, no control, no sense. People are in it for themselves first and foremost, which does not bode well with any relationship.

Conspiracy time, I believe the Civil Rights Movement with Johnson, while great on paper, was a set-up for Black people to abide to government control through entitlement, votes and control. The government did not WANT to give Black people equal rights since the country's founding, so you dismantle it from within TO "give a reason" that Black people AREN'T people.

You're seeing this in practice with what you mentioned.

The black community just wanted more and wanted it done even faster.

Betty White would slap the dog shit out of you for undermining her civil right contributions during her time.
