    Check polling data on muslims from the middle east. There is good reason to make peoplr aware of what these people believe.

    She has a point:


    Kamala Harris
    ‏Verified account @KamalaHarris
    Feb 5

    Russia was able to influence our election because they figured out that racism, sexism,

    anti-Semitism, homophobia, and transphobia are America’s Achilles heel.

    These issues aren’t only civil rights — they’re also a matter of national security.

    We have to deal with that
    .


    a very good point

    you, as your brother Tikiboi, walk around with a "policy" in search of an issue.

    Perhaps we identify the problem before instituting the solution ?

    as far as come up with a policy, you and your brother have spent weeks bashing GND.
    Agree or not, that is a "come up with ... " in the flesh

    According to a right wing Australian senator "Muslims may have been the victims today but usually they have been the perpetrators."

    two questions: anything wrong with his statement and who does it sound like

    just askin
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    This would be an example of the type of discourse I have been discussing in this thread.

    1) It demonizes an entire group of people.

    2) Is not factually based.

    3) Displays elements of paranoia.

    I might add that the attitudes given voice by Mr. Miller go beyond discourse. Those attitudes have formed the basis for policy affecting many people's lives. Mr. Miller, himself, has played a role in crafting these policies.

    And to close the circle, it is my view that to wear a MAGA hat is to give a full-throated endorsement to sentiments such as the one quoted above from Mr. Miller.
    might as well bump this too
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    not ENTIRELY but the sentiments and style of discourse it represents should make us stop and think...do we really want to continue down this path

    people can speak and dress as they please...my hope is that they be thoughtful in the choices they make
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
