So saying things uncouthly while the action is the same, makes him a racist and not me? Actions are racist. Words are vulgar. I know plenty of old people still use old language, that if said by one of us younger folk, we would be lynched for. Old people using old offensive words don't make them racist. Heck in 50 years, me calling Vic by a male word, could be highly offensive and land me in jail.

Words cant BE racist, only beliefs and policies can.

Yes and you formulate your beliefs and policies with ... words. So the resulting sentence can be racist.

What was your point again ...?
No, it can’t.

Sentences can’t have beliefs. People who speak them can have beliefs.

One day, just for you I'll watch Star Trek, I'll have to figure out where to start too it looks complex!
Save yourself the trouble, don't. It's a lot. BUT from my point of view...start as follows:

The Original Movies (skip Final Frontier), The Next Generation (Picard and such), Deep Space 9 (Especially if you like space battleship porn, it takes a while for the pay off tho), Voyager (as GF calls it, Gilligans island in space, and probably my favorite series), After TNG and between DS9 and Voyager, mix in the TNG Movies, but not last one till Voyager finished, lastly Enterprise.

Could also start with the 3 new movies and work yourself into the above list.

GF and I just finished her watching of Enterprise. She liked it mostly. I saw her get hooked into some of the episodes pretty well.

We haven't seen Discovery yet, but we are VERY excited for the Picard airing later this year/early next year.

I want strong border security. A wall for both south and northern borders. I think immigrants sneaking into county trying to abuse the asylum rules should be sent back.

Are my words racist?

Far from it! Which brings us back to my point earlier of Trump adding inflammatory comments so the media focus 100% on him and what he does!

Lets be honest here. Even if Trump were to close his twitter account, the media would still focus on him 100% saying he is a racist because he is deciding to exclude himself from the internet. The point is the media is... no.. HAS BEEN, against him the moment he decided to run for president and run as republican for that matter. Given our ridiculous two party system, if he were to run as a Democrat I truly believe they would still hate him if he still ran on a Make America Great Again campaign and not "their" agenda/narrative.

Discovery is absolute trash. Literally run by people who had little knowledge of the franchise or even an affinity for science fiction.

Im afraid to be hopeful with Picard.

Get woke, go broke.

Like for the "Trump isn't racist" argument. I think it's right, I don't think Trump -is- racist, but he does say racist things. He likes show business, he doesn't care if you are black or gay as long as you like him, but he'll say outrageous things to focus the news coverage on himself....
Trump has been racist all his fricking life.

Donald Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2019
Trump has repeatedly claimed he’s “the least racist person.” His history suggests otherwise.

I do not believe he is a white supremacist.

(I've been watching Vikings for the last few weeks don't mind me!)
I have a degree in history. Ancient through renaissance specialty. There were viking women warriors, even chieftains. They were few and far between. I can think of only a few viking warrior woman burials but here is a link to the search.
Three in one unit, save for home defense, would be impossible.

As for home defense, usually for an invasion while the men were out viking, the majority of the defenders would be women. Elderly men, boys too young to go viking, servants, even scalds would defend but the most most able bodied were all women.

Fox news has had more lefty management for a while now. It really is no longer even close to the caricature the left makes it out to be.

lol. I'm sure the NRA will accept losing the still very conservative Fox News in exchange for Trump caving on background checks.

Because they give Trump bad polling results, they are now too far left. It's time to turn against them until they give good polls without phony numbers.

lol @ the idea of "polling numbers"
How quickly we forget what 2016 polling was saying.

How about this one:


I'm so glad to be apart of this state

I didnt use any of those examples. Murdoch has handed over most if not all control to his heirs. Thats the genesis of it.
