Had George Lopez said the same about white people he'd be in the same position in my opinion. His response was a foolish one, this is certain. I'm curious, what is your take on what he was responding to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to what I found he was talking about a poll that said almost half of the black people polled said they were not okay with white people and he responded by saying "If nearly half of all Blacks are not OK with white people ... that's a hate group". I don't know what the poll question asked nor how it was asked but his response is pretty plain to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like a commentary on the all too easy way that people are labeled hate groups. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it seems that a normally reasonable person seems to have come to a breaking point in response to repeated exposure to intentionally inflammatory and divisive race-based media content. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a crank for many years but hadn't got much notice for it. His comic strip started to show it with going from funny to mean spirited recently. His YouTube channel brought it all out in the open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is that phrase “It’s OK to be White” is a dog whistle used on 4chan, no wonder the response to the question got a high negative. This whole thing makes me think he wanted to blow things up on purpose Edited February 28 by Rhyta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a relatively plugged guy who leans right and I barely know what 4chan is, I know it's something online that the left doesn't like. Is it Reddit for white supremacists?

Is it Reddit for white supremacists? From my understanding 4chan is a hotbed for conspiracy theories and that phrase was on a chat there with links to white supremacy fans. After reading some of Adams comments in the past, he has fanned some racist fires before so his selection of that poll with that question doesn't seem to be coincidental.

If we had a functioning government opposed to a bloated bureaucracy the state department would fix the situation. I'd say the same thing if DeSantis was in the White House.

Principled Man Posted March 9 Author Share Posted March 9 Picked up Ma's prescriptions this evening. While the pharmacist was bagging up the order, one of the assistants came nearby to get some orders. He bent over to get the bag, putting his bare ass out in the open for all to see. A young man, with no belt around his pants, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BastillePark Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Reading that Lauren Bobert is bragging about being a grandmother at 36 years old after her 17 year old son impregnated his 15 year old girlfriend. But she got pregnant as a teen and dropped out of high school so it must be true what they say about apples not falling far from the (trailer trash) tree.

I wasn't going that route only that she talks about her beliefs and then when her son get's someone pregnant she acts like it's not that big of a deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
