    I like to be called by my name, MARIS61. I call other people by their names, if I know them. Lumping people together and shaming them simply for the act of being born as they were seems like something only a simple-minded bigot would do, but it could also be caused by mere intellectual laziness, I suppose.

    At any rate, it's obviously offensive and meant by the user to be taken as such. The very definition of a racial slur. Nobody has ever called me white in a positive context in my entire life.

    I am nowhere near "white", not even my teeth or the "whites of my eyes" are truly white. My body is a complete rainbow of shades, tints and hues, but it is just a shell I move around in.

    Just not Creepy Joe's kind of "love".

    POTUS Trump loves pretty much every American who makes an effort to contribute in a positive way to America. He does not "love thy enemy". He does not love those who steal from Americans, who insult and attack America, who attempt to weaken America.

    Why not just start a new routine already? The fish have ceased to bite...

    Ouch, this means Trump lies when he implies he loves himself.
    Oh well, that will show up next November.

    I also said I supported John Kasich over Trump, and would have voted for him...and still would. I also said, there were no other Democrats on the ticket that I aligned myself with. Biden now stands alone in that regard, and my stance is the same.

    Trump loves only himself. Anyone that he can use in his quest to exalt himself, he’s more than happy to pander to. If they fall out of line in any way, he’s equally happy to throw them under the bus.

    I've always really liked this song. This thread seemed the appropriate slot to post it:

    (Just wish there were some better accompanying video to go with it)

    I'm down with this. Would be great to treat white people like servants and slaves.

    I don't think you realize it but that's actually the most liberal thing you've ever posted here. Guessing you never really listened to more than just the chorus.

    Standing in line, marking time
    Waiting for the welfare dime
    'Cause they can't buy a job
    The man in the silk suit hurries by
    As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes
    Just for fun he says, "get a job"
    That's just the way it is
    Some things will never change
    That's just the way it is
    Ah, but don't you believe them
    Said, hey little boy you can't go where the others go
    'Cause you don't look like they do
    Said, hey old man how can you stand
    To think that way
    Did you really think about it
    Before you made the rules?
    He said, "son
    That's just the way it is
    Some things will never change
    That's just the way it is
    Ah, but don't you believe them"
    Oh yeah
    well, they passed a law in '64
    To give those who ain't got a little more
    But it only goes so far
    Because the law don't change another's mind
    When all it sees at the hiring time
    Is the line on the color bar, no, no
    That's just the way it is
    And some things will never change
    That's just the way it is
    That's just the way it is, it is, it is, it is

    Just something else I have to fix as a white person.
    I should be held accountable for this man's actions.
    smh.

    I'd make a thread with a similar title. But I'd get called a racist again. *eye roll*

    Race baiting. Alive and well. But not acceptable for white people.
    queue the mob mentality in 3...2...1..

    This dude fires up a month old thread for what reason, to play the victim? Do you have a reason to feel accountable? I'm half white, and I don't.

    Last thread I made I didn't research enough the link. Only was in shock of the video that I had never seen before.
    If I made another thread I'm sure I would've got called a rook by someone. Or maybe Son?
    Or maybe racist. Again.
    I believe I put the answer to your question in the post I just made.
    Is your point to my post is that you fail at reading?

    This dude took less than 5 minutes to respond to someone he's supposed to be ignoring.
    Clearly.
