As I migrate away from what conservatism in America is becoming and reluctantly embracing some of Democrat policies (overemphasis on social messaging keeps that at bay), I'm glad to see some of the...

Lost credibility at "Nixon was governor (of California)". Think he lost an election to Pat Brown once, 2 years after he lost the Presidency to JFK. Alternate reality perhaps?

"Gringo usually refers to a foreigner, especially from the United States. Although it is considered an offensive term in some Spanish-speaking countries, in most Spanish-speaking countries and in...

It's not so much that racism is innate. It's that "otherness" is innate. When kids learn to associate otherness with race, then that manifests into racism. You see it in Southern California too. It's...

Facts. Solid facts. I'll say that as an Asian Am, traditional Asians are some of the most judgmental people. Naturally, racism does not escape my race. It may be amongst the worst actually.

It's...

The party is dead. Hopefully the leaders don't take everyone with them as they go down in flames. Never would I have thought that Mitt Romney would remain as the last few voices of reason.

Now...

I am not confused and hold true to my conviction entirely and reject yours to a great degree. I am further confident of that seeing that your supporting evidence cites progress of mere material...

I was thinking of Asian Americans being born into better economic conditions. Actually even better than the average white American actually.

But yeah, Chinese entrepreneurship is a common...

It's great that you know how to behave in order to stay safe. Whether through good parents or other influences such as community role models or your military service, you learned how to mesh well...

I agree. But some other people with the same leanings but perhaps more reasonable and sensible may be reading, forming and / or changing their opinions.

Sorry maybe the confusion comes from me not posting the actual Marist Poll report. Pertinent data on page 25:

Should probably frame this better. Obviously the first 180 years, black people would not have been Senators for obvious reasons. Accept that racist history and move forward in order to get a more...

What I posted was an actual Marist poll that directly asked the opinions of over 1000 registered voters. There was no editorial that overlaid opinions. It was just an act of data collection, directly...

Why are white people getting the vaccine at higher rates than black people? Inequity of care. White communities have more access to healthcare facilities than black communities. You are confusing the...

I agree with you and also do not believe that most of the GOP are racists, etc.

Labeling people as racists, misogynistic, and homophobic should be used more sparingly and only where it is a...

Agree with your description of the orange ape but remember that Trump was not the cause, he was just the vessel (the container) that vocalized what a significant part of the populace was already...

Well, I'm guessing that income from stolen intellectual property is not and has not been their major source of income since the 70's. China isn't exactly known to export high-end, innovative...

I didn't realize that oil transport was such a safety concern. Or that we were so dependent on refining oil from Canada.

Green jobs eh? Would be a shame if a company known to be an industry...

Mostly agree with this, regarding China and Russia anyway. And also regarding that most Europeans not grasping the root of American power and thus our attitude. I don't even think many liberal...

Meanwhile, we're debating over transgender bathrooms, confederate statues, and catering to every emotional whim. DJT was terrible but it would be nice if we let America be America and worked on...

Interesting observations as you clearly have some insight having lived through all of that. One of the rare 100% cogent posts of late. I'm going to have to do my homework.

Likewise if Democrats didn't pander so much to identity politics themselves, they wouldn't alienate the cultural majority who see themselves as having the most to lose. Democrats would easily and...

I like your views. It's sad that when someone like yourself is able stick to your beliefs but able to objectively see the positive characteristics of the other side, only to be criticized because you...

It's not ideal but sometimes the choice is the lesser of 2 evils. While I generally support conservative policies, logistics matter and the Trump administration did a poor job of execution and follow...

That's a very overly simple claim to say republicans have been responsible for all if even the most number of economic downturns. Most of economic situations during a sitting president's tenure are...
