This isn't really helpful.  If you are white male and middle class/lower class, cops still shit on you, threaten you, and harass you.  If you are not educated or lack access to money, you can still get fucked over by lawyers and insurance companies simply because you cannot afford a lawsuit or the value isn't there.  You can get shitty medical care.   Having everyone tell you how great you have it, because you get shit on less in some capacity.  Not everyone is born with a credit card, trust fund, or high credit rating, because they tick the 'majority' boxes (straight, white, male).  

Being white, didn't stop the cops from beating Kelly Thomas to death.

Well, Trumpco told you they were telling you this.

I didn't really see this as badly as some of you are reacting. There is also a bit of an obvious language barrier from casual and metaphorical language and literal interpretation.

The playing cards thing wasn't a zinger Trump is just too stupid to say it the right way for Zelensky to understand what he meant in a high pressure fast talking situation like that. Its why he said its not a game of cards and then got cut off etc. 

Its incredible to watch how actually stupid these people are.

Exactly. That’s why they call it the myth of white supremacy. Everyone who makes it in this country works hard. Unless you are born two or more of really good looking, rich, smart or well connected hard work alone doesn’t get you much. And you need to be lucky also. I guess white boys  have it slightly better at a traffic stop. That’s about it. And right about the time MLK started to point that shit out is when they shot him. 

Anyway that’s why “white trash” is such a potent insult. One time in middle school my  friend’s mom called me and my family white trash to my face.  Let me tell you- when a grown woman from HP tells a kid from East Dallas that he and his family are “white trash”, it’s a formative moment.

I'm sure you know by now that the Park Cities are riddled with white trash.

We have become the baddies. Living in the most insane story arc ever. 

Entire childhood full of anti russia movies. Adult: russia is our friend! Oh ignore the invasion, raping, murdering of civilians and dumping in mass graves! War crimes? Nahhhh The democracy minding their own business that we talked out of nukes and have done nothing to provoke invasion are the enemy!

This is a hill that has caused my wife and I to basically burn our family relationships to the ground. Her parents are excommunicado and my brother is dead to me. It was easy because they are all annoying as hell. So tired of people that have nothing in their life but bitching about boogeymen or asking for money. Go figure it out losers. Hope medicare/SS saves your ass. Or maybe daddy trump. Good luck.

Finally blew up on my brother today. I hate cutting off family members, but we're all fucked because of this and I'm tired of pretending everything is okay.

I feel you. The pretending really got to me. We're going to not talk politics to protect your feelings while the most unhinged shit that's ever happened in our lifetimes is occurring? Fuck that.

You know how we should combat white privilege? Let’s hire people based on their darker skin color instead of their qualifications. As long as said person isn’t white, this couldn’t possibly be considered racist. We all know that Kamala lost because she was a minority woman and not an undeserving shitty candidate. We’re going to call it “DEI” instead of actual systematic racism in the laws. And if you don’t agree, it’s because you’re a white dude that didn’t have to work to earn your spoils. Plus, you’re a bigot and misogynist obviously.

Racism solved. There is no possible way this policy could further divide racial tensions because some people actually get to benefit from their skin color in corporate America. 
 

Solid plan!

https://www.npr.org/2025/02/28/nx-s1-5305281/trump-police-misconduct-database-background-checks

A federal system for doing background checks on law enforcement officers has gone offline — thanks to an executive order signed by President Trump when he returned to the White House on Jan. 20.

The National Law Enforcement Accountability Database (NLEAD) was launched in 2023 as a central repository of the professional records of federal law enforcement officers. The main purpose was to allow prospective employers — other federal agencies or local police — to check their backgrounds for misconduct. The system is now offline.

Why did President Trump decommission the database?

It appears to be a casualty of Trump's flurry of first-day executive actions, which included the revocation of a long list of President Biden's executive orders. One of those Biden orders was a package of police reforms signed on May 25, 2022, the second anniversary of the murder of George Floyd. The database was just one item among many in Biden's order, and the Trump administration has not criticized it specifically, though in the preface to the revocation it criticized the Biden policies in general over what it called "unlawful and radical DEI ideology."

Go back to explaining the "complexities" of frequent flier miles.

Affirmative action, CRT, woke, DEI.

Every few years, Republicans repackage the exact same “the reason your life sucks is because of THEM” message into a new boogeyman, and dumb motherfuckers like you continue to buy it every goddamn time.

So next steps now, there is no way Zelenskyy stays in office, right?  His relationship with Trump and necessity of U.S. support for Ukraine precludes it.  Playing out the chess game, Ukraine's moves are:

  1. He stays as President and capitulates to Trump's demand for subjugation and sells out mineral rights and accepts whatever shit deal Trump cuts with the Russians.  Or,
  2. He stays as President and remains steadfast in a "fair" deal for Ukraine, and sees Trump sell him out vs. Russia and withdraw all U.S. support going forward.  His only play here would be to backstop U.S. support with EU support, I don't think there is enough to go around to make up the gap.  Or,
  3. He resigns under pressure from the Ukranian parliment.  Either through appointment or election he is replaced by a new personality, probably more malleable to Trump and more friendly.  Takes whatever deal he can get, or as Lindsay Graham says "He knows his place."  

4. the europeans cut a deal with china who funds the european arms industry in exchange for rare earths

You know who was an undeserving shitty candidate? This guy:
