    It’s funny that a Scranton native who moved to Wilmington when his father lost a job and went to a public university defeated an NYC birthright billionaire who was bought into Penn and has never mowed a lawn...and that’s considered the elites defeating the working class.

    This has to be the most ignorant post of the day.   You think those things no longer exist?  Yikes.  

    True, they still exist, but over half the country has had it with racism, xenophobia, homophobia, anti-semitism, etc., and when you look at how the youth of today voted we can see that number is growing.  It's going to be a long road to ending hate, and of course it will always be there, but perhaps we are finally going in the direction on reducing hate and judging people by their color, race, choice of faith, etc.  Not everyone may realize it, but this was an important win today for everybody!
    Honesty Brian, you’re better than that.  You don’t honestly think that anyone who voted for Trump is by default racist.  

    That’s an incredibly stupid statement, but if it makes the self righteous feel better, so be it.  

    Biden’s election does nothing to any of those.  As a matter of fact it could do the opposite.  At least it was brought to the surface to be squashed.    Feeling self satisfied is the fastest way to lose ground. Unless we all continue to push to eradicate it - not by marching on the streets (though that’s fine) and certainly not by rioting, but by actively impacting people’s lives in a positive way.

    i mean do you really think there’s any more of those things today then there was 5 years ago?  You’re kidding yourself if you think so,  The whole Colin Kaepernick thing started in 2016.  Who was President?  That’s just one example.  Biden would do the country a service by noting as much.  The Trump years did not invent those things or even make them worse.  They did expose them more. And that’s a good thing. 

    Edit - I’m not arguing Trump deserves any credit.    Making the point that those things existed and have perpetuated thorough time.

    Wow, just wow. Do you really believe what you spout? Or just trying to “own the libs?” By the way, you’re really full of enlightenment. How did any of us ever think we knew what was going on? The apologists are thick, THICK everywhere. BOO HOO.

    ps: a relative absence over four years of the worst administration in world history and more than two posts a day since Tuesday is telling. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. Like your side has some moral high ground. Thanks for the LOL! Did I do the rejoinder right?

    If you knowingly vote for a racist, yea, your racist. Or at least okay with it. Which makes you racist. Which a large percentage of America apparently is. I’m shocked. How about anyone else? Shocked, not surprised. Some on here are neither (because, shhhhhh, they’re in on the “little secret.”).

    This has to be the most ignorant post of the day.   You think those things no longer exist?  Yikes.  

    True, they still exist, but over half the country has had it with racism, xenophobia, homophobia, anti-semitism, etc., and when you look at how the youth of today voted we can see that number is growing.  It's going to be a long road to ending hate, and of course it will always be there, but perhaps we are finally going in the direction on reducing hate and judging people by their color, race, choice of faith, etc.  Not everyone may realize it, but this was an important win today for everybody!
    Honesty Brian, you’re better than that.  You don’t honestly think that anyone who voted for Trump is by default racist.  

    That’s an incredibly stupid statement, but if it makes the self righteous feel better, so be it.  

    Biden’s election does nothing to any of those.  As a matter of fact it could do the opposite.  At least it was brought to the surface to be squashed.    Feeling self satisfied is the fastest way to lose ground. Unless we all continue to push to eradicate it - not by marching on the streets (though that’s fine) and certainly not by rioting, but by actively impacting people’s lives in a positive way.

    i mean do you really think there’s any more of those things today then there was 5 years ago?  You’re kidding yourself if you think so,  The whole Colin Kaepernick thing started in 2016.  Who was President?  That’s just one example.  Biden would do the country a service by noting as much.  The Trump years did not invent those things or even make them worse.  They did expose them more. And that’s a good thing. 

    Edit - I’m not arguing Trump deserves any credit.    Making the point that those things existed and have perpetuated thorough time. 

    I don't know if they are racist, but they support a racist
    If you knowingly vote for a racist, yea, your racist. Or at least okay with it. Which makes you racist. Which a large percentage of America apparently is. I’m shocked. How about anyone else? Shocked, not surprised. Some on here are neither (because, shhhhhh, they’re in on the “little secret.”).
    Not surprised or shocked. Just sad that my worst conclusions about so many have been proven true.
    70 million Americans voted as if the last 4 years were great. Sad, as you expressed. Sad.
    My daughter today asked me how I feel about Biden winning. She’s 9, I said I’m happy that we got rid of Donald Trump and replaced him with a decent human being and t he first woman Veep, but sad that 70 million people voted for trump.  Her reply: didn’t they see how crazy he was for four years?   Yeah kiddo and they liked it.  She just shook her head.

    That's it in a nutshell.  I should learn to be more succinct.

    The thing is, being racist isnt hard. It isn’t something hard to achieve or something for a chosen few. It doesn’t take intelligence or hard work put into it to be one. It takes the opposite. 

    It’s not something so special or hard to reach, that millions of people couldn’t be it. All it takes is for you to be able to vote for e.g. a fucking racist.

    Wow, just wow. Do you really believe what you spout? Or just trying to “own the libs?” By the way, you’re really full of enlightenment. How did any of us ever think we knew what was going on? The apologists are thick, THICK everywhere. BOO HOO.

    ps: a relative absence over four years of the worst administration in world history and more than two posts a day since Tuesday is telling. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. Like your side has some moral high ground. Thanks for the LOL! Did I do the rejoinder right?
    You vote for a racist means you stand with a racist ! You might not feel like your a racist but you agree with one and Covidiot is def a racist has been his whole life!
