Democrats: It's Time to Change Your Racist Policies

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.

You've won the white house so now it is time to address the institutional racism that have plagued your party since it's beginning.

Your policies have torn apart black families for decades. Your policies have resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of brown people in other nations through your warmongering.

We still do not have a UHC. A UHC would greatly an disproportionately help minorities in the US.

We still do not have comprehensive CJS reform. CJS reform would disproportionately help minorities.



So what is on the agenda for Democrats to bring positive change to America? Will anything change under Biden or will we have 4 more years of racism from Democrats?

I've submitted multiple policy changes that the US Government should implement to help combat the racism. So when will Democrats implement the no-nonsense, mostly bipartisan, policies?

This election, historically high numbers of PoC voted for the Republican. In fact, all demographics, except white males, voted for the Republican in higher numbers.

It's not working for the Democrats, anymore. They need to modernize and give up their racist roots if they wish to stay relevant.

Flyattractor
That is why they CHEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this legit? If so, that's hilarious!

White men were sick of being shamed by everyone, huh? That's actually extremely funny.

I bet that just means the Same % as ALWAYS voted for the repubs.

They were talking about it all over reddit. Even some thanking white men for being woke.

Trump won record numbers of PoC votes, too.


So, yeah, Democrats can thank white males for Biden-Harris winning and be upset with PoC and women. Or they can learn from this and do some of the stuff I was talking about in this thread: stop being so racist and amend their ways.

Flyattractor
I wonder what % of those White Votes are Dead? Hopefully we wil find out.

Well damn.

Kudos to black women, they really show up to vote... especially relative to black men.

It's crazy that the white male vote does seem to have the largest impact just looking at those numbers.

They needa stop trashing white boys so much. laughing out loud

A significant amount of black men are legally barred from voting, which is, imo, a huge injustice.

Trocity
That is a valid point.

Black people in cities vote very differently to those in rural republican states... what's your point with your very incomplete data sets mate? smile

It's not even mentioning Biden. Also down at the bottom you can it's based of projections in exit polling?

Even then the margins are only around 2-5% difference. And for Black males the increase in overall numbers were roughly the same for each at about about .6 million. And the increases for black women weren't as close as according to the graph roughly .9 million more black women voted for "Democrats" vs only about .57 million for Trump.

Either way DDM what specific policies are you talking about?

Because it compares 2 different presidential candidate democrats: Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Whereas both elections, Trump was the GOP candidate.

There's literally no other way to measure which demographics voted for whom other than exit polling.

Am I mistaken or did we have a very long multi-post conversation about this topic already? Are you an honest actor? I don't have time to search for hours through my hundreds of posts where I've talked about these topics.

Google search "criminal justice reform" and you'll get a pretty good idea of decades of work already outlined for what we need to do. You can also google search "prison reform" and "racist democratic policies."

I like how your protecting the graph's graphic choices but not the actual numbers showing that the changes weren't that big or is misleading to act like so many people of color voted for Trump in 2016 when both sides got more votes lol.

Also your last answer seems like a bit of a cop out. You're the one who made the thread. You can at least mention which Democratic policies you think are racists. If for no other reason other people might want to know them I also may need a refresher as well since i only vaguely remember talking to you about this.

It's not unreasonable at all for me to ask.

Based on this response, you're not reading the data correctly and you don't understand it.

Read the article to gain a better understanding of what those numbers respresent.

Yup. 100% copping out. Not going to spend hours and hours looking up previous posts I made over the years that literally everyone posting in this thread are aware of including you. You can look it up if you're genuinely curious. These reforms are not new concepts and policies for liberals and they are not even my original ideas. You're clearly not an honest actor in this conversation, at all, and you're "attacking to defend" because you don't like someone attacking Democrats for their decades of racist policies.

This also tells me that you're not interested in changing the decades of racist and harmful policies from the Democrats. You're far more interested in gotcha games and e-wins that confronting actual issues that can make a huge difference in the lives of people of color: specifically, black people.

Divorce yourself from tribalistic political parties. Then you won't act like your family member was insulted so much so that you lose your reason, like you just did, now.

Done.

My tribe is "liberalism" and "Transhumanism." But I'm open minded enough to criticize the problems with both political positions. The fact that the Transhumanist party actually exists doesn't prevent me from pointing out some of the wacky/wonky and woefully naive positions they take.

You can criticize the Green Party, too, since I try to vote Green Party. See if I get condescending and insulting like you did (attack to defend).

If you would rather be responding to the OP topic, why didn't you quote it and express some of your CJS reform ideas and ways to undo some of the harmful Democratic policies?

I know what DDM means when he refers to previous reforms he outlined... and by the way outlined with charts and numbers and all with accurately sourced data.

If I had a blade held to me and had to give at least 1 single thread out of the many where DDM has published articles any respected journalist writing for any internationally recognized newspaper or journal would be proud to call their own work I'd have to say this one discussion thread about uh Prison / Punishment / Sentencing / I remember it more than all the rest because I posted in it.

I think I said some thing about one reform I would push for was. If some one has to steal food to get some thing to eat... they shouldn't be in jail or be put the cjs. What they need is help getting work. Or if you're taking them in. Take them in and put them straight on a work program where they can grind aka do some leveling up in work skills.

I also said some thing like For all general minor offenses etc prisoners should work and be paid and released with their wages so they can go straight into safe accomodation paying their own bills and stuff with skills and experience any employer would want.

I think it's Norway or some country close to it where they have open prisons. Well the prisons are built like residential properties where inmates and wardens are neighbours / house mates because they do not want to be releasing socially awkward people into communities when prisoners have done their time. And they've worked out that is the best way to help prisoners who have problems with life with criminal activity a byproduct of that.

They also have a low re-offend rate. And almost non existent attacks on wardens (who are un armed)

In essence they treat prisoners like humans and they respond well to that.

So anyway.

Like DDM says there are too many posts of his here. And he put so much detail into them. Surely if you put his name into the search and add a search word or item like %, reform, prison, offenders, disproportionate, etc you'll see something.

Having actually engaged him on the precise reforms DDM mentioned he outlined on the first page of this discussion thread.

I can't just not say nothing.

DDM. Newjack. This is not the hill you want to fall out on.

Adam_PoE
Actually, saying nothing was an option for you, one you probably should have exercised. dadudemon is a big boy, he can answer Newjak for himself instead of dodging and calling in reinforcements.

Well he game me some advice once.

And it served me well.

So theres that.

dadudemon
Thanks for contributing, Shiv. I'll try and do better in the future it's just hard to think anyone is honest when I've posted so much on this topic for years.

And, yes, a "path to civilization" is 100% needed. Real skills, real jobs, and real merit based un-sentencing. The goal should always be healthy reintegration back into society. And drug problems are medical problems, not criminal problems. The prohibitions make them criminal problems.

cdtm
I prefer the term "demoncrats".

shiv
DDM I remember there was also that discussion about Opiods

Around the time a couple of States had won settlements and judgements re: Legal Challenges. The state of some thing some thing versus Pharmaceutical Companies pushing Opiods.

Around the time I was looking into overprescription and The relationship between Drug Companies and Doctors and Research specifically funding for Research Projects.

The opiod crisis. The opiod scandal. The Insurance Companies The Doctors The Drug Companies.

Recently I was looking into US citizens struggling to buy Insulin.

For many people in the Northern States. The Canadian Pharmacies handily located a leg over the border trading insulin at less than the 10x 20x extortion price it's racketed at in the U.S. are a lifesaver.

UHC has to be rolled out alongside Regulating Drug Companies.

shiv
Re: Drug Problems are Medical Problems.

The Drug Companies which paid out Hundreds of Millions in settlements to The states which took them to court.

They made (and they continue to make) thousands / millions of people drug addicts.

dadudemon
About the opiate crisis: has it disparately impacted people of color?

If so, that could point to a policy that was a bit more malicious than just making a simple buck or two. The US has a history of trying to indirectly kill people of color through policies. FDA is not the best of orgs.

It's odd because you and I think have similar goals in Criminal Justice Reform but you're just so weird about the history of it.

Like I'm assuming you're referring mostly to Clinton's Criminal Bill but it's incorrect to say the policies were inherently just the Democrats at the time. Nixon and Reagan both participated in the War on Drugs as well and the punishment must be severe model was firmly situated the GOP conservative base of that time. A model that still extends to the modern day conservative GOP. The whole spare the rod spoil the child mentality.

So to say they are just Democratic policies isn't right. It's like saying slavery was just Republican. For a long time they were the policies of both parties. Also the Democrats modern platform consents of a lot of CJR I would like to see but it gets blocked by the GOP.

I mean it wasn't too long ago you were praising Oregon for it's decriminalization of drugs. Which let's be honest that was mainly carried through by the Progressive Democrats of that state. A number of democratic led efforts have led to more body cam requirements for officers.

The efforts in most states to legalize MJ has overwhelmingly come from Democrat pushed agendas.

The democratically controlled city I live in just recently passed a vote on creating an independent citizen review board for having a say in police misconduct. The party that opposed these measures...the GOP.



See what I mean? No honesty at all in your reply. Not even a little.

Give me a single example of something bad Democrats have done for Criminal Justice Reform since 1980. Give me a single example of a racist policy the Democrats have had since 1950.

Until you can actually stay on thread topic, you're just a troll who hates the idea that Democrats have been giant pieces of shit who have supported and instituted cascades of racist policies.

I mean, look at this copout:

"...but it's incorrect to say the policies were inherently just the Democrats at the time."


Uhuh. Is this is a thread about the Racist Republicans? No? Make it. Talk about racist policies from Republicans. It's not as thought there are 1,001 Whirly Troll threads that already do this in one form or another.

Where did I say they haven't changed? Where did I say that the GOP and the Democrats did not have the similar policies?

Can you make a single argument without using almost every single logical fallacy in the book? Is there even a single honest statement in your reply?





Again, try again. Come back to the thread when you're willing to be honest. Stop the finger pointing. Discuss only terrible policies from the Democrats and how you want them addressed. We have tons of anti-GOP threads, already.

Surtur
Why would they change their racist policies? What true incentive would they have? Trump being gone isn't enough, they were racist before him they could just hide it better.

To be fair, California rejected the racist affirmative action. So progress? But they are gonna try to get it back again in 2022 so not a single lesson learned by these dipshits. They are lying and claiming they lost cuz of propaganda and lies. So the old brexit strategy, they blamed that outcome on the same thing.

If I was a California voter who rejected it I'd totally change my mind in 2022 after hearing snobby little shitheads condescend to me and say I only voted the way I did cuz I'm ignorant. Wouldn't that strategy work on you too?

Affirmative action is a racist policy. Democrats who advocate for it are racist.

It would be like me creating a topic framed how will Republicans live down their pro-slavery policies.

It ignores important context of the time about the various parties and policies of the times. As well as the modern context of their current views.

Noticing your shtick is "but the context" and then you ignore it. Like how repubs and dems used sexual preference in the same context but only one was okay.

Honestly that should be the easiest example to grasp when context matters

Your "context" wasn't even "they used it in different ways" it was "well some groups don't like it".

Which isn't valid.

All good points, but they will fall on deaf ears as this thread is an example of what happens when Trumpers lose and can't really accept the election results.. This won't be the only thread like this. My advice, pick your battles.

Maybe this has been said already, but Democrats have no incentive to change any of their policies.

They know they can put up a status quo candidate (Biden) and a cop (Harris) and win.

Noticed your dodged my question and you refuse to reframe and properly participate in the conversation.

Congrats: you're now a racist. Instead of actually honestly engaging in a conversation about what Democrats can do to end their decades of racist policies, you dance, deny, and play games to avoid fixing the problems. Typical Democrat tactic. smile

It's hard to judge of course, but it seems that at least in words the Democrats are moving away from some of their most racist policies. I hope to see more of that, of course.

I think part of the problem is that racism is not the reason for the support of some of these policies, but rather a deeply held believe in the power of neo-liberal markets and the capitalist consensus of personal responsibility. This lead them in the past to champion policies that are incredibly detrimental to the poor and to working people of America (and the poor are at larger ratios minorities than in the overall population, so because of that it had these racist ripple effects). This may just be my personal POV, but that seems to me somewhat different from the Republicans historic racist policies, which seem to come from a place of racism and then are hidden in an economic costume. Not that it matters that much, the outcome is the most important thing.

But to be honest, I fear it won't be that much better under Biden and Harris, I think their rhetoric is only a reflection of a changed discourse in society, not a change in their philosophy.

This is part of what prompted me to make this thread. Biden has made promises to move away from racists policies...that Biden implemented. Biden is fighting hard to end the racism that Biden implemented and supported.

Biden is using the Biden to defeat the Biden.

In some instances, such as Biden's, racism is the reason he supported those policies.

And your description of Republican policies being racist are literally the description of the Democratic Racist policies.


I don't think it will be much better. Probably the most digesting thing about this whole situation is Biden will be given credit for any progress he makes against policies he formerly supported.


Hey, at least Bernie Sanders was consistent since the 60s. Perhaps I wouldn't be such a b*tch about Democratic racism if they weren't so racist all the time while pretending not to be.


I've explained it before. But it is like this:

Republicans:
Me: "Hey, GOP, can you not stab me in the guts. It hurts."
GOP: "No. F*ck you. This is our policy. Fight hard enough to stop me, little b*tch."


Democrats:
Me: "Hey, Democrats, can you not stab me in the guts. It hurts."
Dems: "It's your back."
Me: "What? Yes. Stop stabbing my back, then."
Dem: "Didn't."
Me: "Yes you did, you you're holding the knife and I can see you stabbing me."
Dems: "Nope. Not me doing it."
Me: "Yes. It's you. I'm taking the knife."
Dems: "You're a racist and fascist!"

Yes you do...

Seriously here's my problem. You're still equating a different version of the groups while completely ignoring contexts. The modern Democratic party isn't the same party of the 1950s. The modern Democratic party has a lot of good ideas on attacking systematic racism in this country but who continually gets in the way? The modern day Republican party does :/

You really do sound like the PragerU video that talks about the racists Democrats and completely ignores the decades and decades of change. Also I don't think we completely agree on what constitutes a racist policy. For instance do you agree that with Surtur that affirmative action is a racists policy that hurt African Americans. Do you believe entitlements or reparations are racists policies? I know you've talked about the Black Nuclear family multiple times and I don't agree that the Democrats, especially the Democratic party of the last 2-3 decades is trying to intentionally break it up as you seemed to make it sound.


Also Biden offers better avenues of change then the Republican party does. ;/

We still do not have a UHC. A UHC would greatly an disproportionately help minorities in the US.

We still do not have comprehensive CJS reform. CJS reform would disproportionately help minorities.



So what is on the agenda for Democrats to bring positive change to America? Will anything change under Biden or will we have 4 more years of racism from Democrats?

I've submitted multiple policy changes that the US Government should implement to help combat the racism. So when will Democrats implement the no-nonsense, mostly bipartisan, policies?

Let me know if you're interested in an honest discussion and we can try to have it, again.

He can't seem to acknowledge when they act like racists or hypocrites. He always tries to excuse it by citing "oh the context" but it never ends up actually excusing what was done.

He'd save time if he just typed out "rules for thee but not for me". Remember the sexual preference BS?

This thread is specific to Dems, though. Since they have a majority in the House, will occupy the White House, and are responsible for the greatest amount of racism in America by far, we can focus on the Dems and their policies in this thread.

Donation improvements would improve some of this.



Oh, wait a minute, this is all in a single bill, and more, called the Anti-Corruption Act.

No, they exists already. Democrats have destroyed the black nuclear family and more black babies are aborted than born in many cities, now. Democrats and their racists policies need to be stopped to save the Black Americans from the slow genocide they are experiencing.

CJS reform and ending the drug war are only a minority (pun intended) of the reform pie needed to improve black plight. I think if this deranged leftists actually met and lived with poor black and Latino people, they'd stop being so racist.

Since I made it pretty clear how to address both, your question is malformed.

Rephrase the question but with my actual points properly represented.

Edit - I'll help:

A properly formed question could read:

"Since you've outlined actual legislation to address the endemic corruption as well as the decades of racists policies, do you think it will address both?"

The answer, yes, both sets of solutions will address both sets of problems. Like I said, they are not necessarily mutually exclusive solution sets. Which is great!

Since some of the CJS reform I talked about has bipartisan support from the American people, let's wait and see if the Dems push it through. Then we can get mad at the GOP controlled senate. I'm just looking for change.
