eeetrippawhymeoIt's literally true that the only major demographics Trump wins in are white men and old people. And it's also just statistically true that he does better with voters the lower their education is (which totally flies in the face of the standard Trump supporter "all Democrats are lazy blacks who just want free welfare xD").

I don't understand how people are physically incapable of using Google.

higher educated people are often just as ignorant of politics, if not more than uneducated people

combine that with the fact that liberal propaganda appeals to superiority complexes and you realize that winning the vote of higher educated people doesn't mean jack shit
How are more educated people less educated in politics when theyre more likely to vote and be involved in midterm elections?

when u realize that the minority averaging the highest income in the us are a minority of purely immigrants of which many had little grasp of the english language prior to immigrating?

sorry it's hard to comprehend any other people excuses ("oppression" etc) when people who barely speak english are immensely more successful, my bad
I kinda hate saying "privilege" and letting that be my argument but it really just sounds like you lack perspective on most of this.

so you're saying people who literally do not speak english while encountering a huge amount of racism (even today) and still manage to average just over twice the income of another "oppressed" minority have privilege? if i import a penguin and he's an amazing doctor then is he privileged due to his penguinness? you seriously can't be saying this.

do you also want to address how it's more socially acceptable to call someone a chink vs calling a black person the n word? i talked to school administration in a liberally inclined high school about african american students calling me chink and i was told that there was nothing they could do, but a white friend of mine was suspended for two weeks for calling an african american student a "dumb n word." is this my asian privilege?

BBiA_duchessfade-idk dude im chinese and ive never had a single bad grade ever and my parents are self made from china who moved to the us with a poor grasp of english and still manage to be bigly successful

idk why u poors are tryna say trump "apologists" are poor when half this forum came out of community college can we just have some sort of population control and just kill everyone who came out of community college? like if you're legitimately fucking stupid enough to not be able to get a 3.5+ gpa in american public school then i don't think you're even worth the air you breathe lmao.

shocking how all my parents friends support trump and all of them are wealthy, really throws a wrench into your plans doesn't it?

make up your mind. either trump is going to give tax cuts for the rich or his supporters are all poor.

"people who get less than a 3.5 gpa aren't even worth the air they breathe,". Coming from cheater, this is extremely ironic. But even if you were actually intelligent, attitudes like that lead to social cleansing.

How is "higher educated people are often just as ignorant of politics, if not more than uneducated people"

Not saying higher education means youre less informed?

Your argument is pretty flawed anyway, since the majority of people who understand this shit but stand little to gain like journalists or ex-presidents consider trump to be a bad idea. It would seem the more you know avout government the less trump appeals to you

eeeYour argument is pretty flawed anyway, since the majority of people who understand this shit but stand little to gain like journalists or ex-presidents consider trump to be a bad idea. It would seem the more you know avout government the less trump appeals to you

journalists are paid off to shill for clinton. this is a fact that has been made even more obvious through leaked emails

I might take the ex-president thing seriously if the two living republican presidents had said anything warning against trump. The only warning you can take even remotely seriously is Jimmy Carter's I guess as Bill Clinton obviously favors his wife and Obama is part of the current democratic establishment

I dont think taking money from people who happen to live in SA means shes a saudi puppet

The 6% youre referring to is a manufactured issue. The 6% means they forwarded 6% to other charities. Something like 86% of the foundation goes onto help people

Idc about who bill wants to hang out with

Bill's accusers were investigated and he was acquitted, trump hasnt had that happen yet

Nice way to deflect the argument tho

affirmative action's goal is to put minorities into better colleges.

but why? put people in the college that's their level

besides there's not really that much of a difference between the "good" schools and the "great" schools, graduates from both seem to do about equally well

i'm pretty sure the argument for affirmative action is to benefit racial groups that are inherently "disadvantaged" due to their economic status preventing them from getting as good of an education as they possible could have, which is all nice and dandy in theory and I do agree that those who are disadvantaged should have some form of compensation.

In reality though, (at least from what i've seen) AA just promotes racial animosity and the feeling that you're not actually competing with other applicants but you just need to be better than "the next asian" (replace your own race here). Obviously my viewpoint is biased as fuck and is completely anecdotal, I'd just like to get my thoughts out there.

not to mention that if you were of a race that is seen as traditionally benefiting from affirmative action and you were a qualified applicant, some people will completely undermine your accomplishment because of your race. I personally knew a Mexican-American individual who was perhaps one of the most intelligent people I've ever met, and yet a lot of people belittle her accomplishments by saying things like "oh she only got in/got that job because she's ______" which is probably unbelievably shitty for her.

most of the people in my mumble are lower middle or middle. I think fen is the only person that I talk to in this community who is actually upper middle class and he's a first gen immigrants so i dont think he really counts. Might just be my bubble but the majority of the people I've heard talk about their jobs are either working for hourly wages or in college on student loans. The definition of lower middle class is a lot higher up than you probably think tbh.

speaking as a mouth piece for the humanities professor who I sit next to for a couple hours a week: affirmative action is an attempt to counteract the fact that an equally qualified black applicant would naturally be overlooked for a white applicant with the same resume.

from that perspective I'd say it isn't a bad goal idk

its really shitty to have your achievements reduced, but I think that anyone who supports AA full stop would just counter with "well its better to get shit on than never get anywhere to begin with". You can say intelligent people will shine through regardless but that's pretty optimistic imo

[quote=tranchemusic][quote=eee][quote=Evrews]The amount of trump apologists on the forums is actually disturbing[/quote]
everyone here is a lower middle class white guy who had to drop out of college because they had "depression" (played too much tf2)

this is the PRIME trump demographic[/quote]

lower middle class don't play video games all day

most people here are upper middle class[/quote]

most of the people in my mumble are lower middle or middle. I think fen is the only person that I talk to in this community who is actually upper middle class and he's a first gen immigrants so i dont think he really counts. Might just be my bubble but the majority of the people I've heard talk about their jobs are either working for hourly wages or in college on student loans. The definition of lower middle class is a lot higher up than you probably think tbh.



speaking as a mouth piece for the humanities professor who I sit next to for a couple hours a week: affirmative action is an attempt to counteract the fact that an equally qualified black applicant would naturally be overlooked for a white applicant with the same resume.

A bunch of high school and college students living with their upper middle class parents and working a bad job aren't lower middle class, they are upper middle class like their parents

There is a lot more to social class than the fact that you have to flip burgers part time

social groups, connections, schools you went to, conditions growing up etc

here's another hint, if you're buying a 1500$ computer every few years you're not lower middle class

back to: most of the people in my tf2 circle aren't upper middle class

upper middle class p much by definition means your household income is high enough that you wouldn't need to work part time in school. Most people don't have parents breaking 6 figure incomes in this community.

you're also being kind of dumb by saying middle and lower middle class people can't play video games a lot. The game is free, you realize that right? Video games are a huge industry that EVERYONE takes part in.
