Reminds me of an old Chris Rock comedy routine talking about when he was a little kid coloring with crayons. Back then, there was a crayon color with a pinkish hue called "Flesh" (I remember it myself). He recalled looking at it and thinking, "What is this shit?".
Later, I think Crayola got called out on that and relabled it "Peach". Luckily, that didn't transpire in today's climate...it would be the end of kids with crayons as we know it.Derec

How exactly are white South Africans "privileged"? Blacks hold all the political power, and are threatening to expropriate land owned by white farmers.

It looks like crazyfingers post also used the word “rich” but you seemed to have missed that.

Yes the small minority own the vast majority of the land and are far more wealthy than black majority. Note that South Africa only eliminated their version of Jim Crow in the 1990s.

No matter what they, or their ancestors, did in the past, they are still human beings
They still do in England as well, which excuses neither group for what they did in the past.

Given that to anyone who has been paying attention, too many of his promises would raise prices, it's no shock that he has no idea but it's terrible how he fooled so many fools into believing that he would deliver on his number one promise given that his manic desire to create tariffs and deport undocumented people would inevitably have the effect of raising prices.
He did a lot to make them believe that those immigrants were the main source of their economic issues paying their bills. His next trick will be to ensure that they believe that he could not fulfill his promises because those woke liberals prevented him from doing so, even though he now holds all the levers of power. His base wants to believe in him, and will readily accept any and all excuses he offers, and get even more angry at those 'woke' liberals he provides them with as scapegoats.

So he is going to make everyone rich by holding Mexico and Canada responsible for the trade deficits... presumably with the tariffs he... delayed?

He rants about the $36 trillion in debt, $6 trillion of which came from him.
In the same interview, he said he's serious about making Canada the 51st state.
He's brain-addled. It's getting worse. Canada...Greenland....Gulf of America...they're eating the cats and dogs...JImmy came back two days later and he was a girl... If you had an elderly parent saying this stuff, you'd have a sit-down with his doctor, and you'd start hiding the guns and knives. Nauseating stupidity and belligerence + clear signs of mental impairment. The possibilities for catastrophe are obvious.

Trump said this evening that he is going to write an executive order to ban paper straws. I kid you not! Fuck. We need more plastic for our oceans and our brains. That’s the ticket.

FL-1 is R+19.
FL-6 is R+14.
NY-21 is R+9.
So in all of them Rs are favored, but Elise Stefanik's seat is halfway doable, depending how popular Trumpism is by the time of the special election and whom Dems nominate to run.

The paper straw fas has thankfully diminished over the last few years, so the executive order is a bit of grandstanding.
However, these things had been an abomination.
Plastic straws do not account for all that much plastic garbage by mass, and the paper straw were a much inferior product. They were flimsy and had a weird mouth feel.
Better would be to develop biodegradable polymers for single use applications rather than replacing them with inferior alternatives that people will hate. Same goes for plastic bag bans in many places.

- In addition to hedonism, I am also an extremist- extremely against bullshit.
Typical right winger fails to take into account a basic thing like a serious mass violation of human rights (when it happens to non-white people). Strange.

FIFY.
Do you actually support expropriating white farmers in South Africa?

It is not grandstanding - it is just bonkers, especially coming from a President that wants to slash regulations.
