You are aware that Andrew Tate is Jesus to these kids right? |
I am the PP who said kids were not woke, and at my kids school, which is very diverse, the n word is not acceptable. But it's about the last barrier standing. |
I don't think they are using it in front of their parents. This is what my kid is reporting to me re: how kids talk among themselves. I would assume most parents are not aware of this. We live in a very liberal, diverse area. There is a fair number of international students. My guess is that these kids will grow to be more "conservative" than their parents on many issues. |
no, I’m not aware of that at all. Maybe at your affluent school. |
Curious what you mean by liberal and diverse. at my kid’s T1 MS he’d get his butt kicked if he used the n word. |
Yeah, Gen Z and Alpha are definitely more conservative and have little patience with top-down, school-administrator-ordered wokeness (eg the current Democratic Party), but the n-word is absolutely off limits still. I’m around a ton of Gen Z kids and they are not using amongst themselves except maybe if they are singing or performing. |
I wrote above that n word is off limits. Liberal and diverse as in WJ cluster. |
Or you are not in touch with what kids are thinking. A lot of kids, especially boys, don't talk to their moms about what Peter and Connor said during lunch. |
Andrew Tate is a biracial kid from a council estate in Luton England. He doesn’t appeal to mostly rich kids, his main appeal is to kids from rough upbringings. |
not true. his appeal is not class coded. |
Raskin is so over-the-top that he is caricature of a liberal. In congressional hearings, he is nasty and pissy with everyone who does not bow to his munificence. He is a tool. |
Only the N kids are allowed to call each other N. |
Obama is also less popular now than he was eight years ago. He just doesnt realize it. The party definitely needs to go away from all things Obama. The country wants to move on. All the O's complain about is how bad the country is and how racist everyone is as if Obama did not handily beat two white men before 11pm during a great recession which really was a depression. The DNC needs to dump Obama like old news, just like they did with Hillary. It says something about the DNC's failures if sixteen years later, the biggest draw to a presidential rally is still Obama. Why didnt Clinton, Biden, or Kamala have the juice or the ability to speak frankly with reporters and during interviews without having to take three days off to prepare for a 10 minute TV interview? |
The Dems also need to dump Big Tech. Most Americans believe big tech has too much power and censors political beliefs they uphold. When Trump was elected in 2016, one central pillar of the Democratic resistance involved using big tech platforms as a counterweight.This was the context in which the “misinformation and disinformation” framework was born. Given most Americans receive and send news online via social media, the banning or perceived bias toward one's political beliefs can cause a greater impulse to actively head out to the polls so they can make their voices heard. This is also why Democrats lose. |
I wonder if they’ve paralyzed themselves with cancel culture. You have to prepare 3 days to make sure you don’t say the wrong thing that will end up on TikTok Tok. Agree that it’s weird that the Democratic establishment cannot find someone naturally talented like Obama again. Obama wasn’t even the best speaker (he sounds nerdy) but there’s nothing offputting about him and he exudes confidence and capability. |
