Sounds about right. I was shocked to learn in the last week that some of these Far-left Woke SJWs legit consider people like Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, & the rest of the establishment Dems to be Conservatives.

On The Right, the Populists can definitely tell the difference between Liberals & Leftists, but it's true a lot of regular conservatives consider Liberals & Leftists the same.

Interesting. Are you saying that's accurate, especially of folks to the right? We all know there's plenty more than the simplistic bubble suggests.

Seems legit to me. I consider leftists and conservatives the horseshoe (or circle). I like capitalism and don't mind guns, but both should be regulated. Batshit leftists think we are conservative, yet any actual progress i.e. law is made by us. All they are able to do is "start a conversation" or grift.

And no, populists can't tell the difference between liberals and leftists. During the campaign they tried to paint Sleepy Joe as a "radical" and tied AOC around his neck. They were probably being disingenuous asf but the notion is hilarious. Biden won, so you see how effective that message was.

I've been asking that question myself, because I just don't get it. I didn't vote for any of those assholes, and it baffles me that others keep voting for them when it repeatedly bites them in the ass.

Someone told me that voter suppression and redrawing of districts keeps TX red, but I sense there is no shortage of right-wing Trumpie morons there also.
 
So my best friend (who is also married to a black man) is pregnant, and we were talking about kids today. Both her kids (And mine, if I have any) will be considered "black" by much of society even though they are actually biracial.

What we were laughing about is how bad racist white guys screwed themselves over in the 1700s and 1800s when they declared any person with even 1/16th black heritage to be black. Great planning there, guys!

I mean, if you do believe there is a "race war," you can't pick a worse strategy. Imagine if there was a war between the blue team and the red team, and the red team declared, "We decree that if any person on the red team falls in love with a person the blue team, their children shall be declared members of the blue team." Red team just punching themselves in the face for no reason.

Good point but I think it was all about property. Can't allow the negroes to sex their way out of slavery or have any claims to property

Looking back at old-timey racism with our modern sensibilities can sometimes make us misjudge the racial culture of those old times. When those old racist laws and policies were set in place the whole idea was to keep the white race "pure." Those old racists never considered that black people would ever be on equal footing with them. They especially never considered that a white woman and a black man could have a healthy and loving relationship with each other.
