2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Sometimes I feel all alone [View all]beam me up scottie
(57,349 posts)74. By calling you out for playing oppression olympics? Nice try.
You actually came right out and said Asians don't count as real minorities because they're not as oppressed as other PoC. You don't think that's demeaning to them and the unique issues they face? And you used them to take a swipe at Bernie.
You also tried to speak for lgbt people, a member of that community was offended and told you so but you dismissed him as well.
Pitting minorities against each other is nothing new and I'm glad to see others called you on it.
Pretending I'm the only one and am picking on you is just more deflection.

See there you go again, instead of admitting you sneered at PoC you point the finger at others.

So in fact you're happy to play a full part in the same extreme rhetoric you're now whining about?

Hillary's campaign welcomes everyone? Does that mean millennials are no-one now?
