Our nation and its leaders must never be afraid to speak the truth about our past.

@georgetakei Thats ironic coming from a president who has one of the worst racist records in history, he spent most of his career trying to keep segregation alive because he didnt want school to be a "racial jungle"

@freemo “worst racist records in history”? Worse than George Wallace? Really? And yet he’s changed his POV, and today Biden is the most progressive president in US history. I appreciate people who can change, who speak the truth today. @georgetakei

@MoiraEve

Why did you just quote me and then use words I didnt say?

> You said “worst racist records in history”
as if I said that yet i didnt say those words.

What I did say wwas very different

@georgetakei

@freemo @MoiraEve @georgetakei You did say those words. I scrolled back up and those words appear verbatim in your preceding post. The "one of the" phrase does not make the huge difference that you're wanting us to believe that it does.

@jimvernon

Saying someone is the worst means no one else can be worse. Saying someone is one of the worst implies there are worse but he is among the top percentile... huge difference. In one case arguing "so what about x isnt he worse" is valid, but with "one of" such statements arent valid.

This they had to manipulate what i said for their own response to make sense. Yea it makes a huge difference.

@MoiraEve @georgetakei

@freemo @MoiraEve @georgetakei I doubt you'd actually think it's a huge difference if you found out that you weren't considered the worst person, just one of the worst people. Either way, you're still the worst, you just have company in the latter situation.

Reality doesnt care about my comfort, and no I wouldnt "still be the worst" just with company. One of the worst doesnt imply you are equally as worst as the worst. Stop trying to twist everyones word you disagree with to be right, it doesnt help your case. Least of all with people like me who actually lean left and vote left (usually). But with the way the left has been acting this year im already forced to go third party thanks to the left acting like they are in this thread. I simply cant support this level of toxicity and childishness.
