(267 posts)The problem is Harris got 20 million fewer votes than Biden. The Black men who voted, voted for Harris. But not enough.
Blame white people and latino men for this shitshow.

Thank goodness for the sanity of African Americans. It is one of the few things American democracy can rely on..

Time to push back at the fundamentalists - tell them what you really think.
Stop being polite.

(151,544 posts)Leviticus 19:28, "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the Lord.
They are saying, "You are defacing God's image. You are the temple of God."
That's an old one that still pops up from time to time among the overly religious among us.

(4,780 posts)There are several laws that have that intention. The writers of the Torah were very clever social engineers.
Same with human sacrifice.... like in the story of the binding of Isaac.....

There are many more out there. Someone sets such a thing up and posts it. Doesn't make it true or a real incident.

Edit to add that link is a repost of a repost of a repost.

(4,633 posts)To all my fellow European-resembling Americans: LOOK DOWN AT YOUR ARMS! YOU ARE NOT WHITE! Nobody is really white! My Native American ancestry was so long ago that it is invisible; I look like a Danish immigrant. But I AM NOT WHITE! NOBODY IS! My skin is a mottled beige color, and so is yours! I AM A COLORED PERSON, AND SO ARE YOU! If I were there, I would drink only from the "Colored Only" fountains! Everybody should do that! Show how ridiculous this ancient FANTASY is!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
