    I doubt many posters read the Senate debate on the 1866 Civil Rights Act (that was the precursor of the 14 Amendment) I posted upstream, but the dilatory, free and fluent racism of Senator Cowan of Pennsylvania is astonishing from the standpoint of 2018. It is also possibly illuminating in more than one way.

    Imagine how much these shy and hesitant and somewhat reticent-about-their-own-ideas, SpursTalk racists might keep inside without any outward clue.

    In it's own time, it was very controversial but a tone of genteel tolerance pervades the record. The anno 1866 Senators are not angrily denouncing each other, but let Senator Cowan speak for as long as he wanted about upholding a white man's government, before curtly but genteelly dismissing him.
    Racism and xenophobia are both displays of ignorance and insecurity, which devolve into fear, tbh... it's also psychologically true that, for most people at least, fear creates anxiety and/or motivation.

    Much like religion, they're been great drivers of mass societal/political control of the incurious and simple minded. The lack of historical and psychological availability of information in the past could've been used as an excuse, but no longer.

    Good points.

    Why is it - do you think that we never learn?
    Are people just choosing to be evil? Is it all just stemming from personal greed? Power at all costs?

    Things are often declared "racism" and "xenophobia" out of ignorance. People that refuse to look further than the surface of an issue often declare everyone else that comes to a different conclusion "racist" and "xenophobic". It's quick way to dismiss and feel superior to others.

    your way of feeling superior is to call us ignorant for calling out your racism and xenophobia.

    you call us shallow, but your own depth on the matter amounts to begging the question of IQ differences of racial cohorts and having that dictate immigration policy. not only is that a wholly abstract approach to the problem, it no more describes the problem than it provides the solution unless you accept the racist premisses.

    That's a misuse of campaign funds at worst.

    There's nothing illegal about assisting asylum seekers. Even James O'Keefe says so at the end of the video.

    This is the only time you ever bring them up lmao. We tried getting you to talk about how they turned on Republicans going from Reagan winning the Asian vote handily in 80 and 84 to steadily deteriorating until Trump won 20% of the Asian vote.

    I had some articles lined up with interviews of Asians who walked away from the Republican party but you didnt seem interested. Said I was changing the subject. As a rightwing political person seems like something youd be interested in

    its just curious how only time you care about Asians is affirmative actions and harvard lol. Like hmm whats the agenda there lol so sneaky. Im willing to bet the only time you talked about asians before this was when you reviewed a Chinese food on Yelp!
    its his Chicago

    The point is to make the topic immigration in the run up to the election. It was only about two weeks ago that the dems sent out the memo to their candidates to avoid talking about immigration because their polling showed it was a losing issue for them, instead they need to redirect focus to healthcare (loser for the GOP). Since then it's been a full court press from Trump and everyone on the right saying all kinds of stupid about immigration. Dem candidates have been falling for it.

    makes sense as a tactic.

    do you see any strategic dimension beyond the election to whipping up racism and xenophobia?

    It hasn't worked for the Democrats so far so I don't see why it would after the election.
