I know, right?

Biggest. Hypocrisy. Ever.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they just start flinging feces at each other in the last two weeks.

[mutive]

I would pay to see that.

We have a dogwhistle tag? That is so useful! I swear every time I look at the tags I see one that just doesn't get enough love

[baked_goldfish]

We do! I was so happy when I saw it! Well, not really. You know what I mean.

His campaign strategy is to smash America apart and then try to cobble together 51 percent of the pieces

.... like Bush did with Florida?

Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America

Trolololololo, go back with the other black people so we can go back to legislating against queer and trans folks, poc, Native Americans, the poor, women, immigrants, the environment, and puppies and kittens and sunshine.

Racist motherfucking assholes.

The thing that kills me the most is how a claim by actual racists that their opponents are being racist is being treated as equivalent to their racism. An out of context Biden quote is somehow seen as more controversial than the constant barrage of racist commentary from the GOP and this campaign in particular.

[tabaqui]

Man, this.

[hourglasscreate]

It's probably getting attention because it's so uncommon. Hearing that the GOP is racist is no surprise. Having something (anything) to point at and say the Dems are racist too is a godsend for them.

This song is now racist. Or maybe not, since it uses "shackled" instead of "chains." I honestly have no other coherent thoughts to add to this clusterfuck of putrid racism.

[the_glow_worm]

I know that 'shackled', especially in conjunction with workers, can have really racist connotations, but I'm not sure I see this one. It sounds like another typical Springsteen ode to the working class to me, to be honest. Do you think you can explain your viewpoint to me? I'm sure I'm missing something.

[baked_goldfish]

Sarcasm. As in, I'm saying it's bizarre and stupid for the Romney campaign to say the word "chains" is now racist.

[the_glow_worm]

Lol okay, thanks for clearing that up. I thought it might be something like that.
