I'm surprised you cannot understand this. You must be extremely low IQ.


A privileged white woman Democrat who registered with the Democrats when they were fighting to keep segregation has no business whatsoever weighing in on segregation-era mores. It is grotesque and frankly undermines her cause.


Fiction. You don’t know that.

As I said yesterday, the sign displayed in Arlington last night was racist and abhorrent.

Many Virginians remember the segregated water fountains (and buses and schools and neighborhoods) of Virginia’s recent history. And no matter the intended purpose or tone and no matter how much one might find someone else’s beliefs objectionable, to threaten a return of Jim Crow and segregation to a Black woman is unacceptable. Full stop.



That’s better than I expected. I expected a typical “White progressives are always right stfu.”

It’s almost certainly true.

So the lady's well-intentioned sign landed badly.

Maybe energy would be better spent on worrying about the arming of the locally-deployed National Guard.

Or calling for full release of the Epstein files, rather than the plan to dribble out sanitized bits.

The posts you're seeing here are straight out of the MAGA playbook. It's so obvious. It's equally obviousl that they don't live here and aren't posting from here. The more you play along, the more you are surrendering this website to MAGA. It's getting worse by the day.



+1

Just look at how triggered they are over “CRT” or “DEI”.

MAGA trash will fake outage over anything.

Almost certainly not true.

The racist Democrats of yesteryear are now solidly Republican/Maga.

The cancer in the party is not a crazy lady with a sign- it’s no one willing to confront her about it until the press picked up on it. Hundreds of Arlington Dems there and they let all of us down by staying silent.

Yes. Everyone was there, nobody saw a disgusting sign and spoke up. Nobody said anything about a sign threatening a Black conservative woman with a return to Jim Crow.

It shows moral rot.

You don't believe that's what the sign meant. You're lying and claiming it does that because it helps your cause. That's moral rot.

Everybody understood what she meant. The willful misinterpretation of the sign is the moral rot.

+1 it is proactive and there could be arguments that the analogy isn’t quite a fit. But I don’t think this woman is actually trying to reignite segregation. Who would be at a rally supporting trans rights if they actually want black people to use a different water fountain?

Also I think it’s absurd that people are getting upset at this being “racist” while we have a president who hates immigrants, mocks disabled people, gropes women, and is using the national guard as a political pawn. Focus on the actual bad people.

Would you hold up that sign and be photographed and video recorded?
