Any human woman is out of his league so that doesn’t prove anything.
That said there is so much focus on controlling rhetoric if the other side and none on the fact that neither Trump nor his policies are particularly popular right now based on available polling data. You care more about not getting your little feelings hurt than the fact that the ultra-MAGA soybean farmers have seen their business permanently destroyed by tariffs. Time to toughen up, buttercup.
Ma'am. I haven't mentioned anything about soybeans and also don't have any strong feelings about soybeans. I'm being quite transparent that I am concerned about violent rhetoric on the left. You don't want to engage with that idea, probably because it is damping of the left's current strategy, so you want to talk about popularity, soybeans, and tariffs. Go start another thread. This is about all the assassinations the left is planning because everyone who doesn't agree with them is Hitler.

It's not terror inducing for immigration and its consequences to be a matter of public discussion. You look at that picture and think it's about race because the leftist brain stops computing once it hits skin deep. I look at that picture and think it is about immigration policies and the fact that most nations try to import people from a mix of regions in order to preserve the native culture and ensure assimilation of immigrants. That's the issue in Canada right now. They aren't opposed to Indians, they are opposed to the rate of immigration from one nation and its cultural consequences. And yes. Nations, including western ones, have a right to explicitly work to preserve their culture.
On what are you basing the perception that it's about immigration? Plenty on Canadians look like the people in that picture.
I'm American, born in Detroit, and I look like the people in that picture. Yet somehow all the people who claim not to care about race, only immigration, assume i'm not American. I wonder why.
Stop being cute. The canadian population looked one way 20 years ago and a different way now. They didn't spontaneously turn Indian looking. They had a change in immigration policies that has brought in a 1000% increase in Indian immigrants since 2014. Okay, stop doing this "I don't see color" routine when it comes to immigration. We both look at this picture and know that it is all ethnically southwest Asian people and one ethnically white person and that it may have something to do with all the college age Indian males that have immigrated to Canada. All this garbage about race is just a way to dodge the fact that these policies suppress wages for the native population.
I'm not being "cute". You said leftists only see race while you see immigration. I said, you are conflating race and immigration and pretending you only care about one of them. I somehow imagine that you'd see it as less of an issue if the immigrants were all white Americans.
Personally, I prefer immigration from diverse cultures and populations. Partially because it makes me feel more at home in the country of my birth. People like Stephen Miller DGAF what I think though, because they barely view me as American.
NP. The fact that you don’t feel at home in the country of your birth unless more people LOOK like you demonstrates that this is about race for you. Maybe go live in a country where people look like you, and stop supporting policies that fundamentally change the culture of my country.

lol dude. Who is engaging masked thugs to kidnap hardworking people and send them to gulags? Maybe stop acting fascist and you’ll stop being called that.
Okay, so your position is that a policeman covering his face is just like murdering 6 million people and starting a world war.
It's like you guys have never spent a day outside the US in your life. Police overseas, including Europe where you all want to move, routinely wear masks for similar operations. Calm down.
It’s not NOT fascism tho.
Covering your face isn't fascism. It may not be the best community policing practice, but it's not a signal that we are about to have a West Germany style break with the western world. Who, by the way, allow their police to cover their faces in similar circumstances.

White native Americans felt exactly the same as you do in the early part of the century when foreigners were migrating into the country at a rapid pace. Most of those foreigners were white as well but nativists STILL found ways to discriminate against them (“Irish need not apply” etc). It’s a story as old as this country.
It looks like we've found a point of agreement: that cultures have inherent value and that its not only morally permissible for communities to protect their cultures, it's also morally REQUIRED for governments to do so. The native Americans were absolutely in the right to defend themselves and their territory. When they lost, they were 100% correct to negotiate sovereign territory and exempt themselves from laws rooted in culture like bans on hunting certain animals. They didn't do this because they hated the invaders for being white. I think you know that, even if you won't say it, that the native Americans weren't engaged in a race war. Not. Every. Thing. Is. Race. And using race like a shield to avoid discussion about the economics of immigration is pathetic.
