[quote=flu][quote=ocrenter][quote=cvmom]This thread is so depressing. Hard to believe that this is 2015 and we have apparently not progressed beyond naked prejudice. What’s next–internment camps like the Japanese-Americans during WW2?
And with a major political party’s front runner saying similar things, it validates all those who have this kind of thoughts but before this have been too embarrassed to share them.
The worst thing is that this kind of attitude plays right into the hands of the terrorists and fuels extremism, making future tragedies more likely.[/quote]
This kind of intolerance is actually very much an American tradition if we look back and really examine our history. We just like to ignore our intolerant streak so we feel better about ourselves.[/quote]
If you think that’s bad, just go to layoff.com and read about all the hate against indians in the intel and qualcomm forums.
Reminds me of the time when american workers in auto companies were losing their jobs, blame the japanese.
When real estate is unaffordable, blame the asians for that one too. How many times have we read about how “we should cure foreign investment in buying real estate.
Sure, we’re about equal opportunity, so long as you’re not as good or better than us.
That said, I think Trump is a genius plant by the Democrat party to bring out every bit of hatred and intolerance imaginable out of the GOP. Well done, Hillary. I’d say you got White House seat pretty bagged in at this point.
Come on, we know Trump isn’t an idiot. His followers are kinda idiotic. So there’s something he’s got up his sleeve.
Isn’t this sort of how Hitler came into power, with the vast majority of idiots blaming jews for everything? Looks like same strategy by Trump, and it appears to be working. There’s certainly a lot of people pissed off enough in this country to point fingers at just about everyone else as to why they can’t get ahead.[/quote]
Isn’t it his best shot at the white house. Apparently it is. Best case he wins. Worst case, lots of brand publicity. Or maybe the reverse.
