You see Trump supporters spouting about black folk being on the plantation here every day.
I didn't say I've never seen them spout the idea. I said I've never seen them claim that politicians ought to roll through the hood spouting that idea. Different concepts. Let's be honest, nobody on this board's vote is being shifted by the opposition. Populations on political message boards tend to be significantly more dug into their political positions than the populous at large, so what you'd spout here isn't what you'd necessarily recommend spouting in a political campaign.
I used to think that was true. It's not .
Lol, if your whole rebuttal is simply, "That's not true", why even bother posting it?
Because I didn't want to let your response pass without rebuttal. A very large part of the right wing population at large has degenerated to nothing more than what is seen on message boards such as this. Limbaugh and his clones drastically lowered the bar of what is publicly acceptable, and Trump stomped the bar into dust. There is nothing unusual about hearing a right wing style rant n the isles or parking lot of any major department store. Liberal commie is the accepted right wing term for what ever is disliked, from not enough pickles on a hamburger to a red light. Boundaries of common courtesy and civility are a victim of the right.
That's an awfully partisan appraisal of the world.
One might make the same bar lowering accusation of Bill Clinton and his cabal back in the '90's. Lying about sex under oath is no big deal. Carville's take on the Clinton accusers, "Drag a hundred dollar bill through a trailer park and you never know what you'll find." Here's the thing. Right wingers say some offensive and bombastic shit. Admitted. You know who else does that? Left wingers. Pot, meet kettle.
One might point out that there is nothing unusual about being lectured by a moralistic lefty about the bikini girls on your Hawaiian shirt in the isle or parking lot of any high end natural grocer.
One might also remind you that fascist bigot is the accepted left wing term for anyone who disagrees with anything you claim, from whether you're truly oppressed to whether or not the guy who forgot to put non dairy whipped cream on your soy latte did so because he didn't like that you identify as a third gender.
One might even conclude that boundaries of civility and common courtesy are a victim of the left wing's insistence that anyone who doesn't agree with them is evil and needs to be ostracized from polite society.
