PragerU is great for religious conservatives looking for pseudoscience and cherry picked data to support their beliefs. After taking a few PragerU courses, they can take a field trip to Ken Ham's Creation Museum for a well rounded education.

Well, there's Trump University...oops, too late.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_University

"The organization was not an accredited university or college. It did not confer college credit, grant degrees, or grade its students.[3] In 2011, the company became the subject of an inquiry by the New York Attorney General's office for illegal business practices that resulted in a lawsuit filed in 2013.

Trump University was also the subject of two class action lawsuits in federal court. The lawsuits centered around allegations that Trump University defrauded its students by using misleading marketing practices and engaging in aggressive sales tactics. The company and the lawsuits against it received renewed interest due to Trump's candidacy in the 2016 presidential election. Despite repeatedly insisting that he would not settle, Trump settled all three lawsuits in November 2016 for a total of $25 million after being elected to the presidency."

Not "white man's fault" but, you know, active white supremacy in our society stoking racial animus. I don't blame white people generally for that. I blame people like Ajax and Donald Trump.


That's funny since I've actually performed a lot of Christian service for Latino people and Trump has reduced Hispanic unemployment in the US to record lows. This just proves that one cannot be a proponent of enforcing the border without being blamed for every wrong committed against Hispanic people, even by black people? Unbelievable. And you say I'm unhinged.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

"The encyclopedia of American Loons" .......... Unfortunately, I am not surprised that you were the one who provided the board with this valuable post. Do yo have anything from the National Enquirer on Prager that you can add?

How about something really condescending from Maher. Got anything in your personal "Mock those who view things different than I do" library?


I'll see what I can do, buddy. I'm sure there are some partisan memes out there somewhere about how we should "Fear the Right". :lol:

You're a bit behind the times. The tinfoil hat crowd goes to Alex Jones, not the Enquirer. Including the president, by the way. :cool:

I can respect fear of fanatics but they're everywhere. Left right here there.

Ceeboo, I agree. There are certainly trouble makers on all sides, but filtering out these outliers and speaking to the rule rather than the exception, the left broadly subscribes to an authoritarian ideology that cherishes violence. This is an association which is historical and lauded. The left despises freedom and democracy. It has a time honored tradition of dressing up slavery as freedom. Case in point, the manufactured Russia investigation, the immigration hypocrisy, along with social treatment of Trump admin staffers. Etc.

This will get a lot worse before it gets better. I applaud your effort to engage in a discussion, unfortunately this isn't the place for building bridges. As you can see. Hopefully gazing into the minds of these radicals is proving informative for you and serves to sharpen your sense of the severity of these problems and what lies ahead. I wish you well and leave you with these links.

ETA: It appears you think that black people cannot be affected by dehumanizing, xenophobic, and scapegoating rhetoric towards latinos that is separately motivated by white supremacy. Why on earth would you think that?


It appears you're unfamiliar with the long and unfortunately violent history between California Blacks and Mexicans. Why on earth do you need to make this somehow the fault of Trump's racism? I mean, I can get on board that Blacks now feel emboldened to be more overtly bigoted toward Mexicans because the current climate of immigration enforcement gives wind to their resentments. But to displace fault from Black animosity to White supremacy is cynical at best and race mongering at worst.
