To get a true measure of how racist Dion is, maybe we should get him to state his opinions on voter ID laws and work requirements for welfare recipients.
Dion needs racism to rally around and have a reason to be. In all of his posturing to find it here he has shown what a true racist is and it is him.
 
.

Actual racists would certainly fall in "is a bad thing", but so would anyone who konws the facts. So at very best 1 in 10 people are racists,.
And we know who the dominant racist group is in USA: Blacks murder whites at 10X the rate of the other way around per government statistics.
 
Over the past summer I worked with a guy from Iran. He quite literally told me he wishes we'd invade Iran. He said he and his wife can't go back at the moment and he'd like to return home and see his family.
If he really cared, he'd have stayed & fought. As is, I don't give an ish.
 
Get lucky is your answer. Great basis for economic development there. Trump needs to tap you for Secretary of Commerce.


Haha

Nope. Hard work and leveraging experience.

You don’t have to stay in the restaurant industry, but given your views on Ruth’s Chris as a fancy world renowned establishment, figured it would drive the point home.
 
My question would be, where's the white guy black girl representation...Jesus, a sister can't get any mixed-race love in the MSM?

Where's the white dude Asian girl sitcoms and commercials?...See a lot of that in real life, probably more so than any other coupling...

I mean if you're going to claim to be progressive and equal opportunity, then be progressive and equal opportunity...

Brothers and white girls were en vogue during the mid 90s-early 00s. Black dudes have moved on, branched out, diversified...they're into Asians, Latinas, and Muslims now...

Get with the times MSM!
This is exactly the point. It's not the presence of biased programming or socially formulaic advertising, it's the particular brand being force fed in effort to sell that particular ideal to an unwilling audience whom, the majority of which, cannot reconcile that advertising strategy with real life. Therefore, it reeks to most sane folks being exposed to it.
 
Now tell us about those voter ID laws.
This one’s simple. Having money should never be a requirement to vote. If you want to issue every citizen a voting ID go for it. But poor people have to spend their money on surviving, not politics. That’s an economic issue not a racial one like you’re trying to make it out to be.
 
13 days into 2020...Pelosi caved on impeachment and made a fool of herself, terrorists getting murdered, media and democrats in mourning for that terrorist, and Trump struts out with his beautiful wife for the national championship game to chants of "USA! USA!"

2020 has been one beautiful bitch so far...
 
if automation is taking over jobs, get a job making the automation. Somebody has to build the kiosks, somebody has to program them, somebody has to install them.
In the short term, but soon they’ll be able to do all that themselves. Plus even in the short term there won’t be enough of those jobs for the entire population. Most people can’t just “learn to code” either, they don’t possess the facilities.

So you’re saying we need to compromise our elections because a handful of people can’t afford something that costs less than a carton of cigarettes. An ID or driver’s license costs about $20. It’s typically good for 4-5 years. You’re telling me even the poorest Americans can’t manage to get one.

In my opinion, if you can’t manage to get your hands on an ID, then I really don’t want you voting.

That’s fine, let’s do it.

Ignorant take. That was the mindset of the luddites and we see this time and again yet, jobs are always available. Not under Obama maybe but, Trump has made those that Obama said won't come back magically appear.

Well if we keep building machines to make machines to make machines into perpetuity, there should be plenty of jobs for quite a while.

Yeah, but what about the iPhone 11, tattoos, and trips to Gatlinburg? The $20 should go to those things, not an ID that’s lasts 4 years

Maybe that's what the woke SJW millennials should be protesting about in Seattle, San Fran, Berkely, etc...

At some point, unemployment will be a big issue and it won't be because some old turkey neck looking GOPer decided to take his shit overseas or farm it out here at home to cheaper immigrants but some liberal progressive tech overlord decided he doesn't want to pay working-class Americans, immigrants, nor little Chinese boys a living wage and would rather spend the money he saves on overhead dilly dicking around in space and on Mars...
 
If corporations paid their employees a living wage no one who was working would need welfare.

If people didn't live beyond their means then people with gainful employment wouldn't need welfare.

If a frigging uneducated person with no obvious skills wasn't paid $30/hr to sweep a floor because he belongs to the union was paid the $5/hr he was worth, then things would be priced at the point that poor people could afford them.

The machines will design and produce the machines. Duh.

Exactly. So we need to start reforming society now to be ready for the changes that are coming. Thank you Andrew Yang.
 
I'm about as conservative as they come, but I agree with Dion here. Why in the world would mixed race marriages be a problem absent, well, racism?

That’s not the point of the discussion at all.
They’re not. Pretending that they far outweigh their statistical presence, is.

Handling companies/factories employ teams of maintenance techs just to maintain specific lines in some cases. Imagine the manpower need just to maintain the amount of automation needed to run a random strip mall with no human customer servants.

Between now and Dion's vision of utopian singularity, there is going to be an absolute shit ton of money to be made in the ever-expanding world of automation, from top to bottom and even the bottom pay will be remarkable. Skill is skill and still highly valued.
 
Dion and the other libs here display the same mindset as do most liberals, cowardice of being labeled not diverse or racist. They all have been emasculated.

Geico commercials have talking woodchucks. I live around woodchucks I know they don’t talk. Why are these people cramming their talking woodchuck agenda down my throat in every commercial?? They’re not in line with reality at all! The statistical reality is that 99% of woodchucks don’t talk.

See how silly it sounds?

False. Most if not all states have a way for people to get free ID's.

I've gone back and forth on you and now I'm sure that your are a willful idiot. You try to make a mountain of logic out of your molehill of intellect.

Let's compare the number of black female judges on tv shows to the actual number of black female judges. Also, at the same time, let's look at how many white judges in tv shows are portrayed as dirty.

Just because you don't understand the concept of agenda, doesn't mean there isn't one.

False, you want socialism which is not reforming but restraining the work force.

Are you really bitching about an ID that costs between $6 and $27? That’s your push back for saying “having money shouldn’t be a requirement to vote?”
$27?
Dims know that if ID voter laws become reality, they will never win another election. Cheating is the only way they can win. They have done nothing for the people worthy of note for many years now so, they have to cheat and lie to compete.
 
Automaton is slowly replacing every job. What’s your answer, keep doing meaningless busywork that can be done faster and more efficiently by machines just because?

Something like 90 percent of all jobs before the industrial revolution were in agriculture, now that percentage is 2. The sky might be falling, but it's not different this time.

Many homeless and destitute don’t have $27. They still have the right to vote. Doesn’t matter if it’s $1 or $1000000, they have the right to vote.

I'm not sure the "Freedom Dividend" is the answer...that's a new take on "The Great Society" and I'm not sure there's universal agreement that worked out as well as it was intended.

Why should government/taxpayers, partly pay everyone who corporations are replacing with robots, immigrants, and little kids in Bangladesh?

Jeff Bezos, Nike, Koch Industries and every company that shipped a single job overseas, hired an illegal immigrant over a legal citizen or gave preference to some foreign student who they can pay half as much, can pay a "Freedom" dividend...that I'll vote for...
