WHY NOT? NIMBY for brown people in Biden's state? Sounds... RACIST.... no shortage of undocumented brown people here.. 50k+ and counting.

golfaddict1 Posted September 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 11 hours ago, concha said: The matter at hand is not "political stunt". It is the question of it being authoritarian or not and reasonably meriting inclusion in a discussion about THE MASS MURDER OF 6 MILLION JEWS AND OTHER MINORITIES AT THE HAND OF THE NAZIS. A political stunt involving sending people to a self-declared sanctuary state (that claims to welcome them but actually locks them up on an army base) is an authoritarian act by DeSantis the Bad Guy? Riiiiiiight... The government that ignored national law by not controlling the border and the sanctuary state that locks them up in a government military facility are NOT the authoritarian ones? 👍 I read English pretty well, and the following definition appears to apply to the current national government and the supposed sanctuary state: au·thor·i·tar·i·an /əˌTHôrəˈterēən/ adjective favoring or enforcing strict obedience to authority, especially that of the government, at the expense of personal freedom. See the government (versus law) part? And personal freedom (supposedly available in a sanctuary state, but they got locked up in a government base)? The real "stunt" was CNN and Burns colluding to do a bullshit political drive-by. Authoritarian gov’t sure. Biden bad man. Would this be considered Authoritarian? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/19-states-enacted-voting-restrictions-2021-rcna8342 The yahoo video was a a look at what happened today in the news question, with the CNN host defining the theme and parallel and Burns understood the question and answered it, plain and simple.

The Holocaust. It is astounding that you can watch a video that begins and ends talking about the Holocaust, but toss out a "nothing to see here" response to a network hostile to DeSantis and an interviewee hostile to him doing a drive-by right in the middle. "Holocaust"... "DeSantis"... "Holocaust"... 🤣 And to you there is nothing questionable about attacking DeSantis for sending the people to a wealthy self-declared sanctuary location by passenger jet, when the topic being discussed involved mass incarceration of millions, packing them into cattle cars and shipping them off to be mass murdered? Jesucristo, dude... Damn. 2) What laws are preventing people from voting? This is a tired liberal canard. Example: South Africa requires voter ID. Mandela supported it. But the American left decries the very notion. Everywhere people have the ability to vote early or remotely if needed and over an extended period of time.

The yahoo video was about the today news only. If they touched upon The Holocaust before and/or after this video, I didn’t view it. I didn’t omit it. I watched the vid you shared. Perhaps you should view it again? 2. Vox article author can articulate the stance much better than I can. @15yds4gibberishI’m sure can as well if he cares to. My family is welcome to watch the Burns documentary in my household. They are adults and can think for themselves and make up their own minds. Like a good friend of mine, who’s a devout conservative, but all 3 children are liberals as he calls them…Smart girls! 👍🏻 There’s hope. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2021/6/15/22522504/republicans-authoritarianism-trump-competitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The importance of his comment in that video take vs your family rule of no watching in your household is typical Archie Bunker. Not reading an article that well articulates Authoritarianism is so immature. No surprise, considering your one rule household. Vee vill NOT watch that documentary in MY household. 😉 My thread starter was about a FYI on a Ken Burns Documentary and that’s the way I’m finishing it. I hope family members of other forum posters have a choice of watching or not. 👍🏻 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You provided an article by a very rag that tried to argue that the right is becoming authoritarian. I read stuff like that not infrequently. I simply see it as bullshit arguments. What you think that Vox article "explains" was utterly biased tripe. I actually got started reading it and had to stop due to the bias and hypocrisy. You, however, nodded thoughtfully when you read it, not stopping to ask yourself why it apparently isn't authoritarian when Democrats question election results. And why it isn't authoritarian to load a panel making an inquiry into Democrats main political opponent with nothing but people who publicly attack and loathe him? Or why wasn't that person allowed a defense or anything resembling due process? Why were quotes cherry-picked for maximum negative effect? Why weren't witnesses called who had publicly announced that testimony taken by the panel was false? The author is a far leftist who declares that the US constitution is "outmoded". Really? Says who? Oh, HE does. In the sentence after where he makes this - dare I say it...- "authoritarian" declaration, he LIES outright. He claims Pennsylvania is redder than the country as a whole. Except that Pennsylvania isn't red. There are over half-a-million more registered Democrats in the state of Pennsylvania than there are Republicans. Since 2002, the governor has been a Republican just once, for four years. More? He addresses gerrymandering as if it is a purely Republican practice. It's comical in its bias and hypocrisy. But to unquestioning golfaddict1, it all made pure sense and was Truth. 🤡 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
