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

@realcaseyrollins

Indeed and a very important distinction :) I usually pick my words very carefully, its a shame people dont put as much care into reading what I say as I put into saying it.

@MoiraEve @georgetakei

@freemo And yet a still completely irrelevant statement, given how much he has evolved. @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@freemo Except that according to your own words in your timeline, you don’t consider it history. You consider him to be a racist right now and that’s the point you were trying to get across and that’s the point that was irrelevant because he isn’t. @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@Pineywoozle @freemo @MoiraEve @georgetakei Who said anything about “right now”? This whole dang thread is about history 😂

@realcaseyrollins @Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @freemo @georgetakei they can just sweep aside that Biden wrote the 1994 tough on crime bill that targets balck people and he still defends it to this day

@Grimwing

Their ability to just ignore most of reality and state things with a complete disconnect is actually rather astonishing to witness to be honest... Its like seeing someone on acid who thinks there are dragons in their closet.

@Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @realcaseyrollins @georgetakei

@Pineywoozle

Well Biden is a friend of my father and moth and he comes over for dinner and spends the night from time to time. So yea I am certainly basing it off some level of bias. But yea, the man is a raging asshole and racist.

I mean it is kinda obvious with how he exploits minorities to get ahead and then attacks the racial identity of people who dont support him and dont want on his team. "If you dont support me you aint black" in his own words (never mind the fact he had to use broken english because he associates blacks with not being able to speak in an educated way).... Yea right here and now it has been overwhelmingly obvious he is still a racist, just one smart enough to know he has to exploit them now rather than abuse them to get ahead.

@realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@freemo @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei I had thought for years now that this was a fake quote, so I searched it to double check (and correct you) but you are totally right. He also said “poor kids are just as talented as white kids” 😬 although at least that was a slip of the tongue and not what he meant to say.

@justpeachy

There is video of him saying it. The fact that he used broken english to say it is particularly telling of his racist mindset.

@Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@realcaseyrollins @Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @freemo @georgetakei
Freedom fighters like to try to counter crazy, deluded, biased attacks on our allies working to fight fascism, deal with it.

Labeling Joe Biden a racist is a desperate attempt by the authoritarians to help defeat their opponent.

@GreenFire

I mean he literally started his career and spent most of it trying to prevent desegregation and even explicitly stated he didnt want mixed races in school because he didnt want his kid to "grow up in a racial jungle"... But hey, make excuses for his racist behavior, nothing new.

@realcaseyrollins @Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@freemo No one made excuses for his past behavior what they did state is that it’s in the past and irrelevant at this point. You called it history, but then, in your own words, claim that he still a racist. Gonna block you and the other guy now because anyone who is actively trying to label Joe Biden as a racist, etc. is doing so in aid of a fascist take over whether they realize it or not, and I’m not gonna give a platform. @GreenFire @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@Pineywoozle

> No one made excuses for his past behavior what they did state is that it’s in the past and irrelevant at this point.

Except its not. His behavior is clearly one of someone who remains racist, and I gave an example of that. He has choosen to take advantage of black people and use them to advance his own career while continuing to show he is clearly a raging racist my attacking the racial identity of anyone who doesnt support him by saying they arent even black.

> You called it history, but then, in your own words, claim that he still a racist.

Yes, you do realize something can be true historically while still be true today right? It is historic fact that he is a racist, it is also a fact he is still a racist.

> Gonna block you and the other guy now because anyone who is actively trying to label Joe Biden as a racist, etc. is doing so in aid of a fascist take over whether they realize it or not, and I’m not gonna give a platform.

That is about the level of maturity and critical thinking I'd expect when faced with racism... no surprise there.

@GreenFire @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@Pineywoozle @freemo @GreenFire @MoiraEve @georgetakei This one’s funny.

How hard is it to comprehend that he was referring primarily historical conduct, not present conduct? You brought up the subject of whether or not he’s a racist, not Freemo.

Maybe I shouldn’t be shocked that literacy rates are so low in the #USA after all, if people like you are relatively common.

@realcaseyrollins

Biden has turn "I'm not a racist, I have black friends" into an entire presidency...

@Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @GreenFire @georgetakei

@freemo @realcaseyrollins @Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @georgetakei
Dr. Freemo has, "I'm a leftist working hard to put authoritarians in power" vibe oozing out of his vodka smelling pores.

@GreenFire

I suppose thats one way to in no way address the racism you support and try to deflect.

Ironically I am just as quick to attack Trump. Neither deserve to be in office, both are racist.. Try supporting someone who isnt a racist piece of shit and maybe we wont have to worry about authoritarians stealing power.

@realcaseyrollins @Pineywoozle @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@GreenFire I just blocked both of them do me a favor and drop me from the convo if you want to keep talking to them. I think they’re a waste of time their statements don’t match reality and I don’t want to give them a platform. Thanks

@mps262

Sure, and do you understand how "worst" and "one of worst" are entirely different things? You do understand quoting part of a senstence and representing it as the whole sentence is dishonest and manipulative?

@MoiraEve @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.

@jimvernon

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.
