Only caught little bits of it on NPR (when I turned to it momentarily forgetting it was just going to be worthless political theater all day), but the "both sides" crowd gotta be avoiding it like the plague.

Republicans in there calling out anything she's ever said about race or racism as if being pro-black or acknowledging the existence of racism in America should immediately disqualify you from office.


These are the people they think they can negotiate with on reparations. :mjlol:

You are correct about Republicans but please stop speaking about reparations

p.s. - there is zero chance I could ever be in any situation that would require a confirmation hearing because I couldn't help but clap back on all these bullshyt questions. My entire prep for the trial would have just been opp research so I could embarrass those a$$holes on camera with their own words and actions.

:why:


I was referring to the TLR line that we should negotiate our vote with the Republicans because they might support reparations if the Democrats don't. But why shouldn't we talk about reparations? Don't tell me this is some of that scary "we've gotta act submissive cause if we discuss reality it might scare them away" shyt.

I'm talking about YOU



I've seen you make underhanded comments about the reparations movement.


You don't want to make genuine intellectual critiques about the subject but just to muddle the conversation.


Please avoid the topic.

You're so full of shyt. :mjlol:

I've been pushing for reparations on here longer than you've even been on the site. I AM fully part of the reparations movement and have made genuine intellectual contributions time and again on this site. I've never said jack shyt negative about the reparations movement, the people I've mocked are internet trolls with zero political awareness who suddenly started pushing it in 2019 solely to serve a particular political agenda, shyt on the rest of us who have been working to advance the movement the entire time, and then disappeared once elections were over.

I gotta go back and watch from the beginning. I'm at the barbershop now and they're grilling her about her leniency with pedophiles in her rulings and her sympathetic stance on child sex offenders.

And I like how she throws it right back at congress for directing judges and setting the standards for sentencing and she is simply following that. They shut up quick.
