"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Trump's base is far worse. I think he could shoot someone at one of his speeches and his base would cheer.

Roseanne's been cancelled and now everyone on her side really attacks ABC.

They do understand ABC is a company and not a nation, right?

I think Roseanne in the past used to be not as conservative as she is now.

She was a dirty liberal but that’s not edgy enough anymore.

Honestly if she could have just not tweeted racist shit she could have done to the conversation what she did in her first sitcom and STILL supported Trump. Because the Tanners would be trump supporters, it makes sense. And they would have struggled with disconnects like having lgbtq family members but that frustration over when is it going to be their turn, where was their advocacy, who was going to stand up for them, they worked hard and followed the rules and they still struggled and they watched everyone get their problems addressed. So for them trump would be a hero because he’d at least say they were right, and say that everyone else was getting a leg up while straight arming them. She could have done a lot to articulate a frustration many trump supporters probably feel and are mad that they’re considered racist for it. She is 100% capable of that depth because her first show had it and now she’s able to attract top level writers who are neither right nor wrong but see the world through that lens.

But she got addicted to being the heel and went too far. She was in a unique position to open a window and she shat out of instead.

Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Trump Says There Are Many Other Koreas He Could Meet With

WASHINGTON—Seemingly downplaying the importance of his planned June 12th summit with the North Korean dictator, Kim Jong Un, Donald J. Trump said on Tuesday that there were “many other Koreas” he could meet with.

“I know Kim Jong Un thinks North Korea deserves my attention, but the fact is that there are many, many other Koreas,” he said.

Trump made his comment while seated next to the South Korean President, Moon Jae-in, who appeared startled by the remark.

“There are so many fine Koreas right now,” Trump went on. “Big Koreas. Little Koreas. Beautiful, shiny Koreas. New Koreas are being discovered every day.”

In an apparent jab at Kim, Trump said that he planned on meeting with “only the best Koreas.”

“I’m going to have my people draw up a list of the finest Koreas, and, quite frankly, I don’t know if North Korea would make the top ten,” Trump said.

New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.
