Topic | Are republicans salvageable? |
Taharqa_ 08/07/21 5:13:04 PM #69 | TheRadiant posted... They've embraced white nationalism and authoritarianism there's no salvaging them ^This. The current Republican Party is the result of 40+ years of the proverbial chickens coming home to roost with right wing media, Fox News, Reagan worship, etc. They've doubled down on the white nationalism, and now that the demographics are not in their favor they are fine with authoritarianism to maintain power. The anniversary of the Voting Rights Act was yesterday, if Republicans had their way we wouldn't have it at all, they have been picking away at it for years. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Topic | Ben Shapiro gets TRIGGERED about CRT on Real Time with Bill Maher. |
Taharqa_ 08/07/21 2:13:51 AM #13 | The CRT hysteria from the right wing is to get white people riled up for the 2022 election cycle. Republicans latch on to anything they can gin up anger and resentment for the next battle on the culture war front. Crowing about Dr. Seuss books being discontinued and gay marriage doesn't move the needle for Republicans as much, now they're trying their hand at CRT. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Pretty sure that it wasn't a Pit Bull that you saw if you said the word massive. My Cane Corso was considered massive by folks at 125lbs, she was 3X the size of a purebred Pit Bull. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

The original trilogy had way more variety for the Asari, the difference with the Turian heads is more noticeable too, Salarians too. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Topic | Rosewood, Florida (1923) |
Taharqa_ 07/19/21 9:24:13 PM #13 | I knew about Rosewood because of the movie. No matter how prosperous they were the existence of black townships and neighborhoods during that time hung on the whim of white supremacists who would burn them down and massacre the people (virtually always started on a rumor or a lie). The insurrection of Wilmington was particularly crazy, that town has never recovered to the level of prosperity it had prior to the coup. The Elaine, Arkansas massacre is another big one that doesn't get attention. These are just some of the bigger ones, notice that a lot of these occurred during Reconstruction Era or after WW1, when black folks gained rights and after black soldiers returned home from war expecting better treatment. There's always that backlash. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Topic | Those Republicans are KILLING DEMOCRACY. AMERICA IS DOOMED. |
Taharqa_ 07/18/21 11:58:26 AM #15 | Republicans wouldn't give a damn about "voter integrity" if they were winning and there was no looming demographic change. In some states like my home state of Texas, you can use your gun license to vote but not a student ID. Hmm... And it's always interesting how DMV locations are getting shut down or are severely understaffed in majority black areas. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Taharqa_ 07/17/21 5:25:46 PM #59 | joe40001 posted... I don't think that would pass. With the current level of fuckery from the GOP they're trying to chip away at civil rights and the Voting Rights Act is the most visible of the backlash politics agenda. We are fighting the same battle for the VRA as my parents' and grandparents' generation. They see the changing demographics on the horizon and are doing whatever they can to stem that, with a compliant SC and after packing the Federal courts I wouldn't put anything past them. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |
Topic | Instead of making taxpayers pay reparations; why not go after companies... |
Taharqa_ 07/17/21 4:43:47 AM #9 | Reparations have been dispersed multiple times throughout this country's history, just not to black people. Former slave owners received reperations. Although slavery is a big part of it, reparations also extends to the Jim Crow era because slavery didn't end after the Civil War, it evolved to Black Codes and peonage laws, frivolous laws that only black people could be arrested and charged for and sent right back to the plantations on leases. It is a discussion about recompense for policies enforced by the local, state and Federal government and in the case of descendants of American chattel slavery, it's generations of fuckery at the hands of government. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Topic | The Rhetoric Tricks, Traps, and Tactics of White Nationalism |
Taharqa_ 07/12/21 7:35:57 PM #171 | FortuneCookie posted... I think accusing Ronald Reagan of white supremacy is a stretch. I've no doubt he had racist tendencies, but I don't think you can really make a Nazi out of him. Reagan was something else. He wasn't a out and out swastika tattoo white supremacist but his intentions were known. He began his 1980 campaign in Neshoba County Mississippi and gave a states rights speech there. What's the issue about Neshoba County? It was the site where three young civil rights workers were slain in 1964. Reagan knew how to play to his audience by putting a more genteel face on it, as opposed to the George Wallace way. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Taharqa_ 07/08/21 1:12:57 AM #411 | PoundGarden posted... And how many people per year do they kill or maim? Points for at least acknowledging selective breeding though. Again, Bull Terriers are a relatively rare breed. And please, stop talking about selective breeding, get caught up on canine behavior first. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |
Topic | Are Pit Bulls dangerous? |
Taharqa_ 07/08/21 1:08:40 AM #407 | PoundGarden posted... Selective breeding has been a thing for centuries. In fact, shitbulls were *say it with me* selectively bred for aggression and strength. Bull terriers went the other direction, and were selectively bred for non aggression. I find it funny that the Bull Terrier has been used in the development of breeds such as the Cordoba Fighting Dog and the Dogo Argentino though. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Taharqa_ 07/07/21 11:53:59 PM #363 | PoundGarden posted... Awesome. How many people per year do they attack? You're the one that brought up selective breeding, they wouldn't use the Fighting Dog of Cordoba and the English Bull Terrier in the development of a breed (Dogo Argentino) intended for hunting dangerous game if the dogs did not have traits beneficial for tackling wild boar. Oh, and the Bull Terrier was also crossbred in the development of the now extinct Fighting Dog of Cordoba. --- "We tried to tell y'all." - African-American proverb |

Taharqa_ 07/07/21 11:44:47 PM #347 | Since we're on the topic of selective breeding, here's the Dogo Argentino, a fierce hunter of wild boar. It's a breed with a mishmash of other breed's traits with the intent of making it a more efficient pack hunter. Want to know what breed is responsible for its white coat?
