[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in DC but vote legally in GA. I will be voting for Abrams. I agree she hasn't been strategic this time around. I'll still vote for her because Kemp is an awful human being. However, I actually don't think anything will change remarkably in Ga even if Abrams does win (or any Democrat, really). That's because the problem is not (just) the politicians, but the general populace. It's more or less a state where half the people wouldn't mind reverting back to Jim Crow if were socially acceptable. That's the mindset in which they make their voting decisions. Additionally, the culture is not one of improving oneself in any meaningful way. I lived there for nearly 15 years so feel I can speak on this. It's basically last in everything (education, healthcare, equity) and it's a terrible place to be a person of color. It's not actually great to be a person of color anywhere in the US, but its especially terrible in Ga. The overt and microaggressions are on a total different scale than the DC area. [/quote]

Your opinions are in sync with those of your preferred candidate. There are many persons of color in Georgia who strongly disagree with your opinion of their state. They are professionals of varying ages who love living in Georgia [/quote]

Disagree strongly would be a stretch. My son lives in Atlanta. He loves it. Does he think it's racist? Hell yes. Does he think it could be better. Oh yes. He's black.[/quote]
Because your son is a rational adult.

There’s an Al Franken quote that the repo pos pps should read and internalize: “We love America just as much as they do. But in a different way. You see, they love America like a 4-year-old loves his mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a 4-year-old, everything Mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad. Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad and helping your loved one grow.”[/quote]
Yes, insulting adults who don’t agree with you by comparing them to toddlers is the way to bridge the divide and spread acceptance of your ideas. Intelligent thought process there. That’s that adult thinking.[/quote]

Dp- the well is poisoned. There is no changing people’s minds. It’s about out voting.[/quote]
