    Yep, they know many people of color, live in many different countries of the world.
    But are so deeply concerned about all the happenings in the USA. It's like they live in the USA. Odd.

    You're really put out by all of it, ain't ya DA.

    I consider it an indicator of the kind of American Ignorance so many non-Americans talk about. Your flyovers are more worldly.

    How in hell could you know they've never experienced racism? White people cop racism in certain countries all the time. Some of it absolutely horrendous.

    References to race seem to be coming from the Dems.

    read my second post, the op text was word for word the other thread other than I replaced the word democrat with the word republican

    I started the thread to show how ridiculous the other one was

    It's all they think about. And when a person of colour calls them on it, they reveal exactly why it preoccupies them.

    neither did the other thread detail anything about this so called racism in the democrat party.

    that was the point, it's the exact same text other than replacing the word republican with the word Democrat

    some people can see that only when it's their party in the title, so I flipped it around

    I dunno. It's hard to imagine how Republicans wrested the solid 150 plus-year long hold that Democrats had (have???) on racism and slavery from them. Boggles the mind. Makes on wonder how the Republicans actually turned the moon into green cheese, too.

    How odd it is you need to look to the past to find comfort in your party being populated by white supremacist thugs, conspiracy theorists, racists, members of QAnon, homophobes, xenophobes, unhinged militia, bigots, and those with an affinity for authoritarian leaders.

    Have yet to see them nominate a minority for POTUS plus the fact that they have almost no minority congressmen.

    A person who demonizes their own race can't be trusted or relied upon in any capacity or relationship. The real question is, how did the Democrat party become Satan's puppet?

    Actually, it started when the democrats began supporting civil rights and the racist southern dixiecrats started bolting from the democratic to the republican party.
    Nixon and Reagan egged this on with their Southern Strategy appeals, and the right wing media promoted the angry white guy paranoid grievances.

    I see, its all about identity politics and the color of one's skin that is most important to you. There are Hispanic,
    Native Indian, Asian and even Eskimo minorities that have never been nominated to the potus position. But you
    are determined to make it an issue despite having witnessed just how destructive the failed presidency of that
    half breed obot was for a solid 8 years, or just how radically immature that so-called black veep cummala is.
    Perhaps I'm being naive here but always judged the political leadership role of an individual by their character
    and by their past deeds and not by the color of their skin before I cast my vote.

    Democrats flirt with diversity for the sake of appearance, and could care less about what's best for America. Their goal is always the getting, keeping, and concentration of power.

    Strange thread title when it was the democrat party that invented slavery in the US. Then when a Republican president shut it down, the democrats invented the KKK. And in the 50s Republicans gave minorities the full vote and citizenship while democrats voted against it..

    Strange indeed.

    Nice lie and smoke screen tho.
