Hate and love as well, in essence are simple responses from actually the same organ or region in the brain that served the same purpose for our primitive mammalian ancestors.  Differences, including race, or other differences can be a trigger for aggression or other responses that add up to racism.  

What kind of homework is a five year old child, probably in kindergarten, assigned? A coloring book?

I am not unduly sensitive, but most people who hate minorities and are minorities, commenting on GMG are also actually wypipo.  So, I can’t take that at face value.  The many lessons I have learned from The Root, include that nearly everyone is racist, and only the few who actively confront racism can be judged not…

Hillary is more like Nurse Ratched giving a Commencement speech at a high school.  I don’t really sense that she was trying to speak Southern, even quoting in the AAVE, was only sorta.  That’s not to say Hillary would never.  But, you might have to go further back in time...

But, who will wear the pants in the family?

According to this story, the law already requires adults who are not disabled to work, train, or volunteer. The issue is that some States grant waviers and that would no longer be allowed under the proposal. The story describes this proposal by the White House as a “Bill,” but is it legislation, or just a proposed…

I did not say she is white, only that like most wypipo, she lacked the gravitas or street cred to carry off her performance.

Hear ME brothas and sistahs: Do you think I am gonna give UP all we have fought for, just because THEY think I should be Ashamed of OVERSERVING THEM! And having to mop up THEIR puke off the taproom floor after cocktail hour. No, NO I am NOT ashamed! Bruthas and Sistahs, Service occupations, good UNION works in the…

Blah blah blah… Elect my vice president or Kamala Harris!

Trump will never get a lot of Jewish votes, but Dems can lose them as well as the outsize percentage of campaign donations and donors they love to hate.

Well, I am not suggesting she is gone over the top, on purpose...

There is a difference between mocking them and being ridiculous. It’s just like wypipo having to have a rare gravitas to be credible whilst performing Hip Hop.  Even President Obama was pushing it.  It isn’t that hard to imitate, but you also have to be someone like Gregory Peck.  

AOC did not merely fake a Southern drawl, but she also was immitating the style of a Southern preacher.  

The impression I got from the reporting was that paying the investigation costs was part of the deal Smollett made and the city is trying to collect as a civil debt, not a criminal penalty. In any event, that should be clarified.

It is more of a corruption issue that Foxx recused herself from the case and then allegedly involved herself on the quiet. That a wealthy man, Jussie, got off, can also be corruption, but is a larger story about the inherent flaws of our system of justice. There seemed to be some near consensus about Jussie, once the…

Would this dimestore, welfare queen have received a stiffer sentence had she been genuinely black? Did she receive a lighter sentence, because she volunteered for the NAACP? Why can people have a lighter sentence, but not a heavier sentence?

Maybe Olivia can sell the rights to her story to Hallmark or elsewhere.

Some of these problems, if not most are not problems unique to the ultra-rich. For example, while $5000 hearing aids are pretty good ones, a few thousand dollars for hearing aids has been a price ordinary health insurance would cough up in recent years, although the price is dropping, due to trade rule changes a few…

The McCains have slots at Service academies and always will, because they have volunteered to fight in America’s wars since the war of 1812 (which unfortunately did include the side of the Confederacy.)  This is a very different kind of legacy than mere wealth, and much harder to attribute to mere greed or base…

PDX (Portland) actually requires airport restaurants that are part of chains that operate outside the airport, to charge prices no higher than they do at their presumably lower rent, outside establishments. That’s sort of the opposite strategy.
