Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

I said the comment is racist. Impugning the intelligence of black individuals is racist.

I have no idea if she said that or not. I am not arguing that. I am pointing out that a comment like that is racist. You for some reason want to argue if she made that comment and the context she used it in.
This entire time I have been arguing under the assumption that the comment was made.
Omarosa, and now you, are making it about race but she never says anything about race. She says that they dont get it and dont have the capacity to understand. She is speaking about a group of people that didnt even allow her to speak. Do you not see how she can be viewing their unwillingness to listen to her ideas as a reason for them to be incapable of understanding? It doesnt have anything to do with race or intelligence. If these people couldnt even listen to her speech then they lack the capacity to understand the ideas expressed in her speech.

Where did she say it about a whole race?
So you are saying her comment had nothing to do with the crowd being 100% black? If you feel that way then that is fine.

They reason they are booing is because they do understand and are 100% against them.
And there rests our disagreement

That is exactly what I am saying. This had nothing to do with race or intelligence.
Could you interpret it as being a response to the crowd being black and too dumb to understand what she is saying? Sure, but I dont see why you must do that when you can easily understand it in a way that had nothing to do with race and intelligence

You are working on the premise they didn't even know about her programs. I am working on the premise they were fully aware of her programs and that is why they were booing.

If I have a program that I "know" is good (again, you can agree or disagree), and you're against it 100%, I can say (and I may even be correct) that if only you would truly understand it, you would realize how good it is.

It's racist if you're doing it because they're black! If someone tells me I have bad posture, they're commenting on me - if they  say, "you have bad posture like all the jews," that's racist.

In this case this particular crowd showed they weren't interested in hearing what she had to say (she commented that it was because they didn't really understand her plans and goals). She was commenting on this particular crowd, and I suspect she would have said the same thing had it been a crowd of white liberals who had booed her.
Exactly!
If someone would respond in the same exact way if the person was white, black, or anything else then I dont see the racism.

Why would I do it? Because of the pattern of this WH that she is a part of.
That is like asking me why would I believe the president used the "N" word.

So basically impugning guilt by association? Thats the kind of thinking that leads to racism

But the problem, once again, is that the majority of the articles written about this issue are exactly like this one - comments twisted, spun, and taken out of context. Repeat something often enough and it becomes the truth, right?

The article itself says that's twisting what happened - assuming you go into the article without preconceived notions. The problem is that this, and a thousand articles exactly like it, give everyone a preconceived notion.

Regarding crowd awareness - they may understand that's what she's for, but I too have my own doubts as to whether they fully understand the advantages of such a system.

No they fully understand and why would you think otherwise? They know it will make the public school structure 10x worse. You might not agree with them but that doesn't mean either of you don't understand.

Once you and others here understand the history of racism/slavery against blacks in this country then you can tell me I am incapable to understand. Has there been a bigger injustice in this country?
