@guizzy I dont mind if you agree with him. But to assume a non-leftist will repeat nonleftist talking points. When to that point I did nothing of the sort, is pretty presumptuous. Particularly considering im a person who usually attacks the majority of those talking points.
In fact the list I compiled came from a much larger list. I rejected about 90% of the points on there as empty leftish talking points. I only shared the ones that I personally knew about in detail, and which I determined were valid civil rights violations for one reason or another.
Of course if you just assume someone will act like a typical leftist before you have even begun to engage them then the real problem is that YOU are probably a typical tightest to lost in your own dogma to have a clue (or vice versa).
I wholly expect anyone who supports the right or the republicans would not just side with him but repeat his childish behavior in a similar argument. I have about the same expectations of the left should the roles be reversed.

It isnt just limited to minorities, he has done many things that work against several civil rights issues. I'll list several. In fact this post is so long I will have to do a single year at a time. These are **just** the civil liberties trump has destroyed in 2017 alone. I still have 2 more years of lists I need to compile for you. The following arent my words, they are cited from several sources and I have fact checked each one....
On February 22, the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division and the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights jointly rescinded Title IX guidance clarifying protections under the law for transgender students.
On February 27, the Department of Justice dropped the federal government’s longstanding position that a Texas voter ID law under legal challenge was intentionally racially discriminatory, despite having successfully advanced that argument in multiple federal courts. The district court subsequently rejected the position of the Sessions Justice Department and concluded the law was passed with discriminatory intent.
On June 28, the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division sent a letter to 44 states demanding extensive information on how they maintain their voter rolls. This request was made on the same day that President Trump’s so-called Commission on Election Integrity sent letters to all 50 states demanding intrusive and highly sensitive personal data about all registered voters.
On July 26, Trump declared in a series of tweets that he was barring transgender people from serving in the military. He followed through with a presidential memo on August 25, though the issue is still being challenged in the courts.
On July 26, the Department of Justice filed a legal brief arguing that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 does not prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation – a decision that contravened recent court decisions and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission guidance.
On August 28, Sessions lifted the Obama administration’s ban on the transfer of some military surplus items to domestic law enforcement – rescinding guidelines that were created in the wake of Ferguson to protect the public from law enforcement misuse of military-grade weapons.
On September 5, Sessions announced that the administration was rescinding the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
On September 7, the Department of Justice filed a brief with the Supreme Court in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission arguing that businesses have a right to discriminate against LGBTQ customers.
On October 2, DeVos rescinded 72 guidance documents outlining the rights of students with disabilities, though it wasn’t until October 21 until the public learned of the rescissions.
On October 4, the Department of Justice filed a brief in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia asking the court to dismiss a lawsuit against the president’s transgender military ban.
On October 5, Sessions reversed a Justice Department policy which clarified that transgender workers are protected from discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
On October 6, the Department of Justice issued sweeping religious liberty guidance to federal agencies, which will create a license to discriminate against LGBTQ individuals and others.
I love when you deal with an american, usually a Republican or Democrat supporter. They ask you a legitimate question on why you are critical of their party, so naturally i give a respectful, long, and well researched response with a long list of citeable sources....
The result is always the same "This is so pathetic I wont even dignify it with a response" followed by a long list of personal attacks and accusations of having said something I never said.
Seriously Americans, this idiocy is getting pretty old. The rest of the world are done with the USA.
@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com I dunno man, you werent event able to competently read a single thing I said and repeat it. Everything you replied with was some fantasy about something you wished I said that I didnt.
Thats not just warped, thats clinical psychosis buddy. Feel bad for ya.
Best of luck, hope ya find some help.
@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com Wow you dont even know how to read? I dunno man only person I think lacking any intelligence here is you.
I pointed out rather clearly about ID it has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence. It has to do with the fact that an ID costs money and therefore it would cost money to obtain the right to vote. A clear civil right violation.
I repeated that fact rather clearly twice now and you have now three times seemed to be under the impression I said something entirely different than what I actually said.
You said it perfectly the first time, this is pathetic.
@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com Ok bye. Yea, its pretty typical when you have no counter argument of any kind to just go "not worth my time" as you walk away in a huff as you spout toddler-esk insults in a temper tantrum.
Luckily to anyone viewing this thread it should be pretty clear the level of respect I gave you, time i put into articulating a list, and the research it took to compile dates.
But yea, I guess I'm the "pathetic" one. In psychiatry circles that is called transference.
@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com As I stated at the begining (if you read it). The list was of all civil rights violations against anyone in 2017. It is not a list limited to minorities.
In the case of needing ID it has been the case for a long time now that it is seen as discriminatory, the reason should be obvious. To get an ID you have to pay money in the vast majority of states. If you need an ID to vote that means you need to pay some fee prior to having the right to vote. A clear civil rights violation.
@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com How about instead of assuming nonsense that isnt true about my opinions you spend your time focusing that energy on replying to the things I actually said, rather than the things you want to pretend I said.
I dont particularly care what crass nonsense he says behind closed doors nor do I care in the least whether or not Haiti is a shit hole.

@Kambeii@social.quodverum.com We had it once maybe. But with bush authorizing torture, Obama murdering citizens without due process, and Trump's attacks on minorities, the LAST thing any american has any right to claim is that they have liberty.
With that said, don't worry, I already left some time ago.
Throwing in a little color. Used a dip pen for the red so had trouble making it as nice looking as I'd like. I think i need a second 2.9 nibed pen.
A lot of people liked the last post so after a bit of practice here is a slightly improved version that is a little cleaner and more consistent
@rtwx Thanks, there is likely a lot of similar work out there.
So a new variation on the word "minimum" written such that it is the same right side up as it is upside down. It is intentionally very hard to read.
@Oblivia Eh not worth my brain power to care. It was a comment with no value, so I've already deallocated my mental space for it :)
