Also that tweet isn't racist. We've had about a decade of HIB visa fraud and tax payer funded universities actively discriminating against white students. Asking questions that highlight this reality is not racist.

I didn’t think it was racist either. Just an observation

Agree completely with you and with Sasha. Rove is being a dickhead for opposing everything the DNC currently stand for, but because he didn't like a tweet by a Republican, he says he's going to vote for the Democrat. I'll bet he won't. I'll bet he'll come to his senses and vote GOP or third party.

Regarding the tweet and the photo, I don't see anything wrong with it. For decades, Democrats and their talking heads in DNC-Media have been harping that white America will soon be a minority in America, due to mass migration of POCs and their higher rates of reproduction. I am sure this is true. So, what's a POP (Person of Pallor) supposed to think? If a POP brings it up, the Morally-Vain Community (MVC) accuses them of spreading the Great Replacement Theory (GRT). The GRT originated with the Democrats. Recognizing this and using photo evidence for support seems logical to me. The tweet itself is pretty neutral. It's being spun as if it's a call to action to oppose POC migrants, but it could just as well be a celebration that recent POC students love American football.

Right, WE know what the tweet was really about, but we also KNOW how the leftist media and DEMs will spin it to the drones of no critical thinking skills. Bo French shudda known better not to tweet that out, at least not in an election season.

Still, what ROVE did was much worse, and lets hope it buries what's left of his career from here on out.

If Rove is voting Democrat he is voting for racism as well as transing the kids.

Rove has not been a Republican for a long time. I doubt he was one during the Bush terms even.

Texyz's avatar

Funny but eventually all the RINOs and Never Trumpers 'out' themselves, and ROVE just confirmed it in a BIG WAY. Adios Karl RINO Rove.

Rove has tds like the other so called R’s. He Couldn’t handle Trump beating the crap out of Jeb Bush back in 2016.

Rove — remember «Karl Rove’s Brain? (Bush’s Brain)» — is an original TDS political advocate. Married to the Bush family and his whiteboard to explain to hick Republicans why they are wrong, wrong, wrong to step out of line and vote for sanity, progress, and Trump.

Great point!

Hi Sasha,

It's pretty ffing obvious to anyone with half a brain that permanently mutilating and sterilizing a kid is worse than commenting inappropriately on a photograph of a football game. Daily Krap (oops, Kos) is just positioning themselves to get you on the defensive. Time to double down and challenge their ability to reason and judge actual facts. Anyone who hides behind the excuse of the photo to vote for a kid transer (and all Democrats are kid transers) while calling themselves a Republican, needs to be called out, as you so rightly did. There is no issue here. Feel free to quote my first sentence above when anyone challenges you. Stay on the offense!

That’s because they are obsessed with the idea that “words are violence”. Gee, why am I getting “1984” vibes?

They’re sick and twisted. They don’t care about the permanent physical scars and damage to actual children. It’s far more important to protect their brand as the “virtuous speakers “. Never mind that their actions are never actually virtuous. It’s allll about appearance with that side. They’ve lost their collective hive mind.

I’m so sorry you’re getting this ridiculous backlash, Sasha. Anyone who takes the time to legitimately read what you write knows you’re not a racist. Hold your head up high because you ARE actually virtuous.

P.S. So glad Jasper is on the mend! God bless him and Luna. And you, for being a good, decent, brave human being! ❤️

They equated a value judgment about racism with a value judgment about a single tweet. You were asserting that transing kids is worse than a putatively racist tweet, not that transing kids is worse than racism. This is such an epic failure of logic on their part; it's downright depressing for the prospects of our society.

Richard's avatar

Not a failure of logic. Outright deception.

Mark Leone's avatar

Agreed. Maybe a failure of logic in many who buy their argument.

He’s joining the likes of Tucker Carlson & other so called ‘conservatives’ who are really pushing big government, socialist ideas in order to gain power & destroy maga.

KARYN TRUITT's avatar

they have to play that game because otherwise, they would have to admit to their own insanity.

cocteau twin's avatar

i think it's kinda hilarious that they called you a "maga" blogger!

Epaminondas's avatar

That's how this game is played. Next, she'll be a "right wing blogger", then "far right wing blogger", then "fascist blogger".

cocteau twin's avatar

personally, i feel like the left referring to someone as maga is the "most extreme" in their playbook, which, again, i find hilarious. it the apex of their identity insults, to be "maga" in their book is worse than being "right wing" or even "far right wing." and being "maga" is one and the same with being a "fascist" in their book, even though they've always used the word erroneously and in classic fashion, tried to redefine its meaning.

Jeff Keener's avatar

Accusing a MAGA of being a MAGA is not an insult to MAGA. I would answer, "Why yes, I do want to make America great. Thank you!"

PapayaSF's avatar

To the left it’s always Mississippi 1955 and “racism” is a huge problem that explains every bad thing. On trans they’re up to about 2015, with apparently zero knowledge of the now well-documented downsides of transing kids. Leftists love pointing to Europe as being superior to the US, but they seem to have missed the news that most of Europe has stopped transing kids.

Mark Marshall's avatar

Can we trans the Daily Kos to become human and somewhat decent?

Advocating for “gender-affirming” care for children who are not of the legal age to sign off on informed consent should be criminal. Oh, wait, it used to be.

Cicero said “What society does to its children, so its children will do to society.”

Surely, this will not bode well for society at large.

What happens when societies no longer protect their children? https://lizlasorte.substack.com/p/what-happens-when-societies-do-not?r=76q58&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

Gee, another cheap shot from the left. Whodathunkit? Another quote twisted out of context to imply some sinister meaning.

That’s their go to playbook. Impugn someone’s morals no matter the ethical lapses required to make the claim. Set them all straight, Sasha. You are the best.

I hate to break it to these folks, but I face more racism in my workplace every day (I’m white, the place is over 90% ethnic, including management) than any of those kids have ever faced in America.

Direct, open racism is allowed against only one group. And that is a far cry from Bo French’s comment that said nothing, but everyone understood…because everyone feels the same unease.

Not wanting to live in an Indian city or culture is just normal. Not only is it simple ethno-homogeneity, like everyone wants, whether they admit it or not, but have you been to India? Do you want to live in a low-trust society that is desperately poor and split up into ethnic groups that all hate each other? And, India is startlingly dirty even today.

No. Of course you don’t want to live there. Or you’d live there.

And, I’m not going to get into how it feels to be from middle America (both geographical, social, and economic) and see colleges filled with foreigners or Johnny-come-latelys while American universities are proudly announcing that only 9% of their admissions are to white males.

This isn’t some movie or tv show. Racism as the left imagines it hasn’t existed in the United States in my life (I’m 56). Fifteen years ago, the whole idea had become a joke. Gen X was raised in an environment of treating everyone the same, and in good Gen X fashion, that meant calling a POS a POS and treating everyone else decently.

But there was no political capital in that.

As I pointed out multiple times when I was a Democrat, the left won on every cultural issue. It was time to get back to the economy. But you can’t do that if you are in on the grift. If you are just another elite or wannabe elite, free money stolen from the working and working middle class is just too easy.

If you are still too worried about what people think about you to actually admit the truth, please don’t comment. You’re a dinosaur. Maybe your strange racialist beliefs meant something fifty years ago, but they don’t correlate with reality today.

I have been to India, and you are correct, it is not pretty. I watched a garbage truck pick up the trash one day from the street (literally). The truck was very similar to those used in the States, however instead of picking up the garbage cans and pouring them in the back, the driver parked the truck, got out of the cab and proceeded to scoop up the trash from the street and sidewalk with a scoop shovel (like a grain shovel) and shovel it into the truck. There were no trash cans, no dumpsters, the trash was just thrown on the sidewalk and street.

I've never been to India but have seen documentaries from the comfort of my (clean) home. Have you seen the Ganges River? They throw everything in there, including dead bodies.

All of these groups, Daily Kos, ActBlue, OccupyDemocrats, et. al. are all toxic. Just Sayin!

Who cares if "they" call us names?BFD call me whatever you want. I'm old enough to remember the old adage about sticks and stones. You know back in the day when your parents taught you to stand up for yourself and not be cowed by bullies.

Idiots like Rove vote for their own demise. There's very very clearly a lesser of two evils this election, never been clearer.

People like Karl Rove are reason things have gotten where we are. Tolerance has become anything goes to the point of sickness and debauchery

Truth Matters's avatar

On point as always Sasha. How can anything trump sterilizing and mutilating children? Racism is bad; but come on people (that's you Daily Kos), we are supposed to protect children!

lily weber's avatar

Amen sister!! This trans cult IS medical malpractice, barbaric, evil, and leftist. Modern day eunuchs. The divide between the left n right agenda is colossal. The left is plain evil these days.

Kenn Goodwin's avatar

The lunatics liberals could cook a new born baby in a pot and it would be seen as compassion by the useless idiots. Anything the liberals do is spot on with their followers and never wrong. Trans mutilation is right there with female, gentle mutilation, bottom Marxist Islamic folks. Crazy ain’t it?
