Absolutely reprehensible. Just when I think liberals can't go any lower, they prove me wrong.

No one does "I'm such a victim" better than a right-winger. Go back to your safe space, you snowflake.

Democrats perfected the art of victimology a long time ago. It’s part of the party’s core values.

Projecting again. Just like your good buddy, Trump.

Not to mention that if your position is that "Democrats perfected the art of victimology [sic] a long time ago," why do you emulate that behavior? The conservative butt-hurt and whining about how people reject them because of their viewpoints (as opposed to, you know, the color of their skin or their sex) is truly psychotic and pathological.

Bottom line - the Northam camp is defending this ad.
Pretty sad, really.

Why? If Latinos truly feel threatened by a candidate & his policies then I think their voices should be heard.

It's not hard to understand why they'd feel that way:

Why did some of the comments on this thread from last night disappear? Ones that were discussing whether the racial division in this country all began 2 years ago with Trump or whether they began further back? That kind of talk is unacceptable??

Dunno. Jeff has been delete-happy this week.

Nobody is saying their voices cannot be heard. This ad is unacceptable. It is inflammatory and blatantly false.
And, I think it will backfire on the Dems.

It is false that racists and white supremacists support Gillespie? Really?

Based on people I know personally - and here on DCUM - the more recklessly someone throws around the word "racist," the more hypocritical and sanctimonious they are.

What about it is false? They really don't feel like they are being chased down?

"A young Latino boy runs for his life from a speeding black pickup with a Tea-Party license plate, a Confederate Flag flapping in the wind, and a faceless white man behind the wheel. Each time the truck guns its engine, the boy runs past another minority who sprint along in terror. Eventually they’re trapped in an alley without an exit. The kids are as good as dead because obviously being Republican means being bloodthirsty."

Considering we all saw what happened in Charlottesville -- and that's basically aligned with Republican ideology these days -- I'd say the ad sounds accurate.

You are FOS and you know it.

I know what I saw. You can gaslight all you want, but anyone who supports Trump and Gillespie at this point is a racist. 100%. Own it. Stop crying like a little bitch when it's pointed out to others. You sound like one of those Nazis upset that they got fired from their jobs -- they got all confused and thought they were a victim of something.

I wish I could dox you right here, right now.

Don't be an idiot. If you can't distinguish the material difference between Gillespie and Trump, you shouldn't be permitted to vote.

It's people like you who need to be exposed. You are disgusting. "Gaslight, racist, Nazi..." Any other liberal catchphrases you can throw in there to add to your outrage and drama? You're such a caricature and you don't even know it.

It's like they're shocked when they step out of their echo chamber to discover that most people don't actually think the way they do.

Change that to "liberal," and you'd be spot-on. The echo chambers you people live in appear to be soundproof.

NP. There is effectively no difference, just as there is effectively no difference between Congressional Republicans and Trump. They all support his unprincipled positions, unqualified appointments, and trampling of our legal and moral norms. They are all complicit. I have never been a registered Democrat and have voted for both Rs and Ds in the past, but after watching the Republican party degrade itself over the past few years, I will never consider voting for a Republican for any position, no matter how minor, again.

DP. This is exactly - precisely - how I feel about the Democratic party. I've also voted for both parties in the past, but those days are over. I will never, ever vote for a Democrat again. It is the party of smug, sanctimonious hypocrites and I want nothing to do with them.

If you can't do better than, "I know you are, but what am I?" you really should just refrain from posting.

You make me laugh, pp. You sound like such a reasonable, tolerant person. Someone who always sees the best in people.
You’d be shocked.... shocked, I tell you..... if you knew my background.
And, you might even know me IRL and like me.

THIS. So funny how these liberals assume they know who voted for Trump and who didn't. Some of the people I know (including myself) who voted for him are among the most diverse in the area.
