I never thought about that aspect, perhaps you are right. It is a n attempt to "blend in".

I hope not VP... his replacement would be nominated by a Republican, and we need the Senate as well as the White House. I think that was a major factor in Sherrod's thinking.

Don't be shy, or be shy, whatever works for you.Freedumb of speech means freedom to not speak too.

Understanding the harm of pejorative racist names is something relatively new and many people still struggle with it. The words are embedded in the cultural language so deeply that we sometime do not know they are harmful. The mantra of sticks and stones is still strong today. One of the first offences of the RWNJ is 'just words'. We no longer accept that pejorative namecalling is just harmless words, we know the harm is generational and lasting.

I'd be more worried about these Identatittybabies if they didn't constantly demonstrate their mind-numbing incompetence in all aspects of life.

The Kola Peninsula. It's already mostly white, it's Russian (which they'll love), and it's already really polluted.

No, sweetheart. Russian antisemitism is not "left wing", "right wing" or any other "wing". It is good old Russian antisemitism, which gave us the Pogroms and the Protocols and preexisted communism by _centuries_. God what an ignorant fuck.

Very much so. Unfortunately the "Commies" realized that they couldn't maintain power without pandering to popular antisemitism, much the same way that they came to an understanding with the Russian Orthodox Church. The church became a state organ, but was allowed to maintain a fair degree of independence because completely eradicating it would have made Russia ungovernable. Similarly, traditional antisemitism was rebranded as a fight against "International Zionism". Which, unfortunately, gives these assclowns a point, but much less than the one they think. No amount of antisemitism anywhere will ever make a religiously-governed ethnostate OK for Jews or Palestinians.

Stalin was a massive anti-Semite himself and that all came out in the "Doctors' Plot" hoax near the end of his life. If he'd lived he would have gone full pogrom.
