For the second consecutive year, U.S. adults’ positive ratings of relations between Black and White Americans are at their lowest point in more than two decades of measurement. Currently, 42% of Americans say relations between the two groups are “very” or “somewhat” good, while 57% say they are “somewhat” or “very” bad.Meanwhile... events of the day makes it easy to blame politics rather than people
Don’t blame Trump. The ratings fell off a cliff in 2013, two years before he arrived on the national political scene, both for the population as a whole and for blacks and whites as groups. There also has been a precipitous second drop in the past two years, as Gallup noted in the intro quote above.
Obviously the past two years have pretty much everything to do with George Floyd, riots, BLM, and the rise of the woke cancel culture. With the exception of George Floyd, the national attitudes on the rest have been increasingly negative.
But I think if you go back to why these numbers were falling and possibly even why Donald Trump was elected President, you can place that on the shoulders of what was the start or rise of anti-racism, social justice warriors, and such. While the causes might be just, the manner in which these causes have been shoved into society are not.
What we are seeing is what is called a backlash. Even if you believe that wokism is the greatest thing since sliced bread came along, that doesn't mean that people want it shoved in their face. I promise you that the person who wants to "tell you the news" about Jesus and leave you a religious pamphlet believes in his/her cause as much as the most woke social warrior. But that conviction is overridden by the intrusion factor.
So keep that in mind. If you are a social justice activist who believes that everyone needs to hear about your cause, you are ultimately going to be viewed no differently than the Jehovah's witness who comes knocking at your front door. You might not like it, but it's true.

must have been a line he didn't have a chance to use in the town hall
The Cleveland Indians baseball team announced Friday that it will change its nickname to the "Guardians," following years of activism and protests against a moniker considered offensive by many Native Americans.
Why it matters: It's the first time the team will change its name since 1915, a move that comes in the wake of the nationwide racial reckoning that began with the murder of a drug addicted black man, George Floyd
Campaigns to change racist team names — most notably the Washington Redskins — have gained significant momentum over the past year.Cleveland announced last year the team was looking into changing its name, and began removing the Chief Wahoo logo from its uniforms.
What to watch: The name-change will go into effect next season, but Cleveland has not yet announced an official date for when it will be implemented.
Via Cleveland Guardians
What they're saying: "You see, it has always been 'Cleveland' that's the best part of our name," a narrator says in a video announcing the name change. "And now it's time to unite as one family, one community, to build the next era for this team and this city. To keep watch, and guard what makes this game the greatest. ... Together, we are all Cleveland Guardians."

“Woke” was originally a term used largely by Black people in activist circles, particularly after the rise of Black Lives Matter, to signify a consciousness around racial issues in America. The term is still sometimes used in that context.
But in culture and politics today, the most prominent uses of “woke” are as a pejorative — Republicans attacking Democrats, more centrist Democrats attacking more liberal ones and supporters of the British monarchy using the term to criticize people more sympathetic to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Those critical of so-called woke ideas and people often invoke the idea that they are being “canceled” or a victim of “cancel culture.”
As we explained in a piece earlier this week, ideas cast as woke are often coming from progressives and involve identity and race (like the notion that white people in America have privilege or that Black Americans should get reparations.) Cancel culture is broadly the idea that people advocating more liberal ideas, particularly around identity and race, have too much power and can publicly shame those who don’t agree with them, sometimes leading to those who don’t share these ideas being removed from their jobs or having their speaking invitations withdrawn (so “canceled.”)
related: The Ideas That Are Reshaping The Democratic Party And America Read more. »
But there is no agreed-upon definition of “woke” or a formal political organization or movement associated with it. Nor is there an exact definition of what constitutes being “canceled” or a victim of “cancel culture.” However, despite their vagueness, you now see conservative activists and Republican politicians constantly using these terms. That’s because that vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Casting a really wide range of ideas and policies as too woke and anyone who is critical of them as being canceled by out-of-control liberals is becoming an important strategy and tool on the right — in fact, this cancel culture/woke discourse could become the organizing idea of the post-Trump-presidency Republican Party.
There are at least five reasons why Republicans are likely to keep focusing on the woke and cancel culture over the next few years:
First and perhaps most important, focusing on cancel culture and woke people is a fairly easy strategy for the GOP to execute, because in many ways it’s just a repackaging of the party’s long-standing backlash approach. For decades, Republicans have used somewhat vague terms (“dog whistles”) to tap into and foment resentment against traditionally marginalized groups like Black Americans who are pushing for more rights and freedoms. This resentment is then used to woo voters (mostly white) wary of cultural, demographic and racial change.
In many ways, casting people on the left as too woke and eager to cancel their critics is just the present-day equivalent of attacks from the right against “outside agitators” (civil rights activists in 1960s), the “politically correct” (liberal college students in the 1980s and ’90s) and “activist judges” (liberal judges in the 2000s). Liberals pushing for, say, calling people by the pronoun they prefer or reparations for Black Americans serve as the present-day analogies to aggressive school integration programs and affirmative action. These are ideas that are easy for the GOP to run against, because they offer few direct benefits (the overwhelming majority of Americans aren’t transgender and/or Black) but some costs to the (white) majority of Americans. In many ways, we are just watching an old GOP strategy with new language and different issues.
In other words.
It's The Red Scare of the 1950s..

If you can hear the whistle, YOU'RE the fucking dog.
Idiot.
The Republicans are like the British Empire in 1776.
Here are 10 views, based on polls and public discourse, that are increasingly influential on the left. This is an informal list, but I think it captures some real sentiments on the left and ideas that people on the right are criticizing when they invoke the term “woke”:
The United States has often not lived up to the ideals of its founders or the notion that it is an “exceptional” nation that should be a model for other countries. Because the U.S. has disempowered its Native and Black populations and women throughout its history, America has never been a true or full democracy.White people, particularly white men, are especially advantaged in American society (“white privilege”).People of color in America suffer from not only individualized and overt acts of racism (someone uses a racial slur, for example) but a broader “systemic” and “institutional” racism.Capitalism as currently practiced in America is deeply flawed, giving way too much money and power to the wealthy. America’s economy should not be set up in a way that allows people to accumulate billions of dollars in wealth.Women suffer from systemic sexism.People should be able to identify as whatever gender they prefer or not to identify by gender at all.The existence of a disparity — for example, Black, Latino or women being underrepresented in a given profession or industry — is evidence of discrimination, even if no overt acts of discrimination are visible.Black Americans deserve reparations to make up for slavery and post-slavery racial discrimination.Law enforcement agencies, from local police departments to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, are designed to defend America’s status quo as much as any public safety mission. When they treat people of color or the poor badly, they are working as they are designed. So these agencies must be defunded, abolished, disbanded or at least dramatically changed if the goal is to improve their treatment of people of color and the poor.Trump’s political rise was not an aberration or a surprise. Politicians in both parties, particularly Republicans, have long used racialized language to demean people of color — Trump was just more direct and crude about it. And his messages resonated with a lot of Americans, particularly white people and conservatives, because lots of Americans have negative views about people of color, Black people in particular.
These views are now expressed regularly by left-leaning people and Democrats — particularly those who use Twitter, are involved in the Black Lives Matter movement and are under age 40. Books such as Ibram X. Kendi’s “How to Be an Antiracist” and Isabel Wilkerson’s “Caste” have become bestsellers because they appeal to people with these views and are likely pushing those who read them even further in this direction.
Trump was just more direct and crude about it. And his messages resonated with a lot of Americans, particularly white people and conservatives, because lots of Americans have negative views about people of color, Black people in particular.

The Justice Department sued Donald Trump, his father, Fred, and Trump Management in order to obtain a settlement in which Trump and his father would promise not to discriminate. The case eventually was settled two years later after Trump tried to countersue the Justice Department for $100 million for making false statements. Those allegations were dismissed by the court.
"Donald started his career, back in 1973, being sued by the Justice Department for racial discrimination — because he would not rent apartments in one of his developments to African-Americans, and he made sure that the people who worked for him understood that was the policy,"
Typical example of how he got away from being charged for crimes..

The Technology 202: Another day, another attempt to regulate tech by carving up Section 230
By
Gerrit De Vynck
Tech reporter
Today at 7:45 a.m. EDT

with Aaron Schaffer
Correction: An earlier version of this newsletter incorrectly said Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) suggested taking away section 230 protections for companies that have hate speech on their websites.
Coronavirus cases are rising again in the United States, and Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy says social media companies are at least partly to blame by helping spread lies and misinformation about vaccines.
Facebook, YouTube and Twitter say they’re doing everything they can to cut back on bad coronavirus information. They’ve blocked millions of posts, shut down entire groups of anti-vaccine users and plastered people’s feeds with links to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website. But misinformation researchers say it’s not enough, and the companies’ algorithms, which promote the most engaging content, are working against the anti-misinformation effort.
On Thursday, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), one of the most prominent Big Tech critics in Congress, came out with her own solution to the problem. Her new bill seeks to amend Section 230 — the two-decade-old law that protects Internet companies from getting sued for content posted to their websites — to make social media liable for the health-care misinformation floating around their platforms.
If you’ve been watching the wrangling over tech regulation in Washington over the past few years, this tactic will be familiar to you. It’s definitely not the first time a lawmaker has suggested carving a certain category of content out of Section 230.

Yeah, to silence or de-platform what the left deems "mis-information.":
In an act that completely ignores the First Amendment, Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) on Thursday introduced a bill that would remove Section 230 liability protection from social media companies that allow the dissemination on their platforms of "misinformation" regarding public health emergencies. Klobuchar justified her speech-squelching legislation by arguing:
"Earlier this year, I called on Facebook and Twitter to remove accounts that are responsible for producing the majority of misinformation about the coronavirus, but we need a long term solution. This legislation will hold online platforms accountable for the spread of health-related misinformation."

“I think
they’ve finally realized that if their people aren’t vaccinated, they’re going to get sick, and if their people aren’t vaccinated, they’re going to get blamed for COVID outbreaks in the future.”
— GOP pollster Frank Luntz, quoted by the Associated Press, on why Republicans are starting to more forcefully push for vaccinations.
_______
EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING.
All of a sudden, Republicans are having a "come to Jesus" moment, caused only by their realization that by not encouraging getting vaccinated, as they have been doing, they are beginning to be hurt with voters, just as Trump's mishandling of Covid was a major factor in voters refusing him a second term.
Politics to benefit the wealthy before the good of the people. That's how it goes with Republicans.
Always.

Vaccinated America Has Had Enough

David Frum:
“Compassion should always be the first reaction to vaccine hesitation. Maybe some unvaccinated people have trouble getting time off work to deal with side effects, maybe they are disorganized, maybe they are just irrationally anxious. But there’s no getting around the truth that some considerable number of the unvaccinated are also behaving willfully and spitefully.
“Yes, they have been deceived and manipulated by
garbage TV,
toxic Facebook content,
and craven or crazy politicians.
But these are the same people who keep talking about ‘personal responsibility.’
"In the end, the unvaccinated person himself or herself has decided to inflict a preventable and unjustifiable harm upon family, friends, neighbors, community, country, and planet.

GOP Governor Says ‘Blame the Unvaccinated’
July 23, 2021 at 10:08 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R)
called out “the unvaccinated folks” for the rise in Covid-19 cases in her state, a remarkable plea at a time when many GOP leaders are refusing to urge people to get vaccinated even as Covid-19 cases surge in many parts of the country, CNN reports.
Said Ivey:
“Folks are supposed to have common sense. But it’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down.”
Biden paused the J&J trials, it was at that exact moment that vaccination per day dropped and has not recovered.
Blacks and Hispanics paid with their lives as they die at a higher rate and are the least vaccinated.

He didn't realize that I was asking for an example of a Republican who has been asked too and "refuses" to urge people to vaccinate.
The pederast is such a fucking liar. He's trying to make it look like the entire GOP at every level suddenly reversed course and are now pro-vaccine. The GOP has always been pro-vaccine. Where they differ from the left is making the vaccine compulsory.
It's like I've been saying - every narrative promoted by the left is a FALSE narrative. They have no familiarity with the truth and don't care to.

That's by design as it's in proportion to their patriotism.
The campaign against "critical race theory" — and against teaching America's real history — must be understood as part of a larger fascist strategy of attacking public schools and other institutions of learning with the aim of creating compliant followers and a public that is not equipped to participate in democracy — or to defend it.
This plan involves placing white supremacists, QAnon conspiracists, Trump supporters and other right-wing extremists — to the degree those categories of people can be separated — on local school boards and library advisory councils, banning "controversial" books, and the surveillance or intimidation of teachers deemed too "liberal" or suspected of "politicizing" the classroom, i.e., by refusing to teach right-wing dogma and other lies.
The fascist assault on education and critical thinking also involves think tanks, right-wing activists and advocacy groups, along with a network of wealthy funders committed to remaking American society to fit their racist, theocratic and plutocratic vision.
The Texas Republicans' attempt to literally whitewash the Ku Klux Klan out of American history is so ridiculous that it approaches parody. That doesn't make such historical erasure and distortion any less dangerous. Those dangers are further amplified by the crisis of democracy caused by the Jim Crow Republicans and ascendant neofascist movement.

This is a lie easily proven by reading the actual propsed legislation.
The only parody is YOU, alky tranny daddy.
Actually, I just appreciated Joy Reid's tweets, that's all.
