you have to be a bot to have this reaction. useless f

the cognitive dissonance here is amazing.

-Article about Dems Identity and how most Americans don't think they are in tune with the issues that matter to them majority.
-Boaz points out Dems would do better to move away from TQ+ and DEI... pretty much what the article is alluding to.

Everyone here lashes out with hate and vitriol, straw-maning, and assigning of horrible positions.

Yeah, can't figure out why the left lost the election... it's a head scratcher.

Also, since people want to focus on the "staffing wasn't normal"

Staffing for ATC at this airport hasn't been at normal levels for years. So please connect that to Trump for me.

Trump caused a tragedy...?

Even Corky sees what happened here...

"They had one person doing two people's jobs.... BUT the Controller did his job in this case, informing the copter that the plane was above him, and got confirmation back that they saw the plane.

Whatever happened was going on inside the copter."

JPW...

your link that was "so easy to find"

has no examples, only reports of the fear of them.

I'm not saying they don't exist, but given the left going full apoplectic over this I assume there are many news stories detailing some of these raids...

"My wife is in education and is seeing a lot of posts from former colleagues in NY that ICE is raiding the schools there too."

However all my google searches for news on this talks about schools preparing for this, but not about any actual raids.

Does anyone have a link to an actual occurrence?

"DEI was just a good faith effort to level the playing field. Nothing more."

Which failed to do so. most studies found that it made things worse. Just like most far left initiatives, well intentioned but never accounts for other possible outcomes, many of which are foreseeable.

Then when you choose not do double and triple down on bad policy, they play the race card or throw out some other -ist -ic or -ism at you.

Given the list of people angry here, and with nothing but insults and no argument... safe to assume Trump did the right thing here.

I mean anything that can rile up Legally so much is okay in my book.

There's always that one that thinks they are always so intellectually above something. The amount of strategy and gamesmanship that is in football is amazing. The fact that you see it as just caveman games is more telling about you than the game.

And just like the iCe RaIdEd a ScHoOl iN cHiCaGo thread... this is yet another one where the left ends up looking stupid. Trump didn't remove the video, The class that it was shown in was a DEI class, and the class was removed. The mentioned video, along with other content from that class has already announced that it will still be shown, in a different context.

Can you please stop twisting your panties for a minute and let the facts come out for a change. You think everything is a gotcha moment on Trump or the right, and you look foolish.

reason 1959 the next election cycle will go poorly for the left.

The only reason the children were terrorized is because the left has convinced themselves that the boogey man is coming to get them all and they are telling their kids this. Then when any official looking person comes to do normal business all the lefty teachers freak out, freak the kids out... and over nothing.

Dial it back a bit and stop freaking the kids out. You blame the right, but it's the lefts rhetoric that is doing it. How about we pause for a second and see what ICE ACTUALLY does.

So far it's been a raid on a fish warehouse... pretty sure that wasn't going to affect any kids.

I thought denying the election results was un-American

The left is revving themselves up into hysteria and see all normal activities as evil right wing coordinated attacks on them.

Go fn breathe into a paper bag before posting please.

It's interesting to see how protective of a good flow of slave labor the left is.

"what sex a person identifies as doesn't effect your life in the slightest."

spoken like a man.

Now go ask women who've had biological men allowed into their spaces and sports.

What you meant is it doesn't affect your life in the slightest, so you don't care. F them women.

I would be shocked if anyone let alone a ridiculous percentage of DEI workers voted R. It's basically a pre-req for the role to be a deep left on the political spectrum to even think to want to seek those roles out.

You call Oct 7th... "Hamas was engaging in legal resistance"?

where the hell am I? This conversation is the most rational I've seen in years on here.

"What municipal water system is designed for that?

None.

But do you actually expect Trumper morons like onerironshortbus to actually think about it?"

Maybe the one in an area wit the outright potential for fires of this magnitude, with known climate change exacerbating the liklihood.

How f'n hard is it for people defending the lack of preparedness for this that it could be seen coming from a long way away yet nothing was done. And then calling out that lack of preparation somehow make those calling it out somehow the dumb one.

#31 hysterically non self reflective.

The left barks just as loud at the same things, The right will blindly attack them and the left will blindly defend them. How about actually discussing the points because neither side is fully incorrect about them.

But both sides are so smugly firm in their positions that the other side is too stupid to understand, that no progress is made. The far left and the far right are the reason non of this stuff ever improves.

The problem with making agenda points with things like this is they are multi-variant problems. Of course climate change is a factor in these fires, but California wild fires are nothing new and the Santa Ana winds are nothing new. The policies affecting how the forests are maintained are new, and they definitely didn't account for climate change. The policies around water management haven't kept pace with accounting for climate change.

The only point here is that climate change itself played a small part in this fire, but it played a part. Other factors did thought too and and to a bigger degree, and where much more manageable but were mismanaged.

Using climate change as a focus is a useful shield in ignoring the mismanagement that played a much larger role.

It is time for accountability, and I don't think the questions being asked about the leadership that got LA/Cali to this point are distractions. Decisions were made that exasperated this scenario.

Asking pointed questions at D leadership doesn't make it immediately MAGA.

This can't be true... Harris' grand idea was to give black people forgiveable loans to start more of these businesses. Tony said she was a great candidate, so I can't believe this story is true.
