Um, no. One side wants equity & societal progression. The other wants to regress to the 1950s so they don't have to see a spooky scary black person living in their neighborhood.

Liberals tend to be more racist. Sure they talk a big game but look at the racially divided neighborhoods in blue states. They want them to "be equal....just over there away from us".

My point is both sides are bad, but the changing of terminology is a modern leftist tactic to try to control behavior and thought through changing the vocabulary. It is subtle, manipulative and ultimately conveys that other people know whats best for you, so don't think for yourself

See, I'm a very agreeable person and I'm so tempted to openly discuss with a level-headed, articulate argument such as this.

But then you take another read of the actual content and see just how detached from reality it is, and there is no middle ground with that. I'm out.

data for racially divided segregation in San Francisco number 1

racism in liberal city data

same thing in Austin tx

top 10 most segregated American cities are considered the most liberal and inclusive

why are liberal cities bad for blacks?

My "gotcha" tactics might seem intrusive and pigheaded due to their bluntness, but I've ran out of ideas to wake up the "woke". They've drank the kool-aid, the propaganda has so fully worked on them they do not see they put their handcuffs on themselves.

Clinton was the one who let wall street proliferate in Washington , not Republicans. The democrats like to be the superhero and protector of the weak, but they are equally elitist and self serving as Republicans. They are more sinister however because they have otherwise smart people convinced

You're right! It's almost as if the whole system is stacked against certain people no matter where they live.

But go ahead and ask any person of colour if they'd rather live in SF, or Harrison AK (or any of the deep south for that matter).

This is a sign that further progressive policy & sentiment is needed everywhere, not that we should give up trying and regress to the 50s.

It is stacked against certain people. The poor. Always it is a game of keeping poor down and uneducated and confused while the rich lead easy, luxurious lives.

Everything else is a distraction from the real fight and the real enemy. That is rich vs poor, and those outrageously wealthy are the enemy. Those born into old money centuries old. Those who dehumanize and view the poor as animals because they were born lucky.

We can agree there. It's my firm belief that most "us vs them" dichotomies are carefully fed & guided to distract from the real disparity of "rich vs poor".

However in the meantime, at the end of the day all that matters is the average quality of life for each and every person. It's important to remember that, with some major twists and turns, progressive views have always prevailed in the long run. The world inherently progresses, and there's only so much someone can drag their feet in a progressing world.

Words chsnge their meaning often and shouldn't be trusted alone. Our liberals in America are conservatives compared to other parts of the world.

If we are all slaves who live comfortably, is that a good thing? I'd argue no.i think rich vs poor is all that matters and if we solve that big issue then many small issues will be fixed through collateral damage so to speak. Broke, hungry and homeless? Fixing wealth vs poor issues solves that.
