Obama never said that. Obama's former literary agency misidentified his birthplace as Kenya while trying to promote the then-Harvard Law grad as an author in 1991. There was nothing suspicious about his school records other than changing his name.

Oh so it wasn’t completely made up for no apparent reason, or only because he was black? Someone misspoke and raised the question, so then people wanted proof.

Its pointless to talk to you.
You realize there's a very large non-zero chance we're chatting with a Russian troll farm account, just saying. I try not to get too worked up, it's practice for my rhetorical skills and I hope maybe others reading will see how loony these people are and how avoiding of reality and what we all can see in front of our own eyes they are.
 
That's... exactly what you've been doing throughout this thread. Suggesting that the Democrat party is a party of baby killers, LGBT fanatics that's forcing others to "celebrate their lifestyle", hated filled and intolerant because some have called for Trump's death.

Again, you're not only in an echo chamber, you're also blind to facts and your own thoughts.

To be fair the majority of democrats support abortion. Also by watching any prime time TV show you’d think half the country was gay, bi or transgender based on how many are in these shows. I personally don’t have any issues with people like that. But it does get tiresome to constantly have to see it while they are trying to “normalize” it.
 
Trump talked about it on video himself. Google trump obama birth certificate. Its literally the first hit.

Its pointless to talk to you.

I didn’t say I didn’t believe you - just that I never saw it.

And yeah, the feeling is mutual. So let’s just stop shall we?
 
Yet it happened all over Twitter and Facebook all summer long. So it’s their unfair enforcement is what people have an issue with myself included.
You keep saying this and you know, show me the money. And also remember -- Parler was literally set up to give these people a place after the main social networking sites began kicking them off their platforms en masse. That is the story, jack. So even if those sites were late to the game, and they were, you know what? Not quite the same as literally being the platform set up to take them in, from moment 1.

It depends on how you qualify conspiracy theories - "I'm just asking questions" can also be thinly veiled dog whistles, as in the case of Obama's. And before birtherism, there was the conspiracy that he was Muslim due to his name:


But do you not see the bias at play here? If he had a "normal looking" name, it's reasonable not to believe that the conspiracies would've been as effective as they turned out to be.

Those people have been suppressed and underrepresented so long, now the slingshot effect is happening. But I think you would be surprised to see how many people are gay, transgender, etc. It's a lot more than you think. ANd it is perfectly normal - for them, just as being a straight male is perfectly normal for me.

hahaha keep talking this bigoted garbage. "I'm not against these people, I just don't want to have to see them out in the open." Please, drop out of society already, if you can't keep up with plurality. Go download Parler and stay there while it lasts, and spare the rest of us on the internet. And btw most democrats support the right of individual people to choose their destiny over their own bodies -- a value that you know, really does sound awfully conservative when you come right down to it. But you and me both know "conservatism" has for a long long time now, really been a wink-wink-nudge-nudge way of saying white cis hetero power led by men.

Garbage. Nobody at BLM gets attacked for being white. It is a totally racially diverse movement. It's actually about just being freaking tolerant of people's race and background. Very different than the 99% all-white crowd that tried to subvert democracy this week. Thankfully, they are being rounded up and dealt with as we speak.

Do I need to pull out viedos of white people being beaten all summer long for no reason other than being white? I will. I’ll stop there so I don’t get banned.
 
Honestly, we just don't give a crap about trying to understand the racist, seditious crap of the GOP any longer. We're through, and you know what? We're in charge now. The GOP is DONE. Stick a fork in it. None of us care about trying to convert you to our way of thinking, we just want diversity and plurality to be respected so we can go about our lives and generally, respect one another as human beings and have an equal shot at opportunity no matter who we are or where we come from.

This is not what the GOP wants, the GOP wants to preserve white privilege and throw out any scraps of actual representative democracy that are left in this country so the ultra-wealthy billionaire class can privatize everything. The game the USA has pulled on many other countries over the years has come home to roost, sadly. The GOP demands that only white protestant Christianity be preserved, everything else be second class. No more Muslims can come into the country -- your President's policy. Etc. etc. ad infinitum.

See, it's all out in the open now. You guys went full racist. See, you never go full racist, because there's noooo coming back. Trump, Trump Jr., and Rudy live, on TV, directed a crowd of white power hicks to attack our Capital and block the certification of his opponent for President, by intimidating our elected officials through violence and mob rule.
You illustrate my point perfectly.


This is a very unhappy way to view your fellow Americans. Believe me, you will have more peace believing your neighbors are thoughtful and disagree instead of OMZ RACIsTs! That’s a... immature way to go through life. Not zen at all. Spiritually bankrupt. Full of hate. I actually pity people this wound up and think so poorly about their fellow citizens. It’s just...sad.

Maybe you are young. But polticss is long. In a fair democracy no side wins forever. There is back and forth. And we have so much more in common than not because politics is a small piece of life. I don’t like Trump. I don’t like Biden. But the election of neither was an existential crisis or victory because in the US the stakes are really not that high. Trump was a 1990s democrat and Biden is a 2000s democrat. Neither is the next king of the US trying to send people to gulags. That’s just not America

They went in with zip ties, had guns and Molotov cocktails, and forced almost the entirety of our leaders of Federal government into hiding and lockdown for several hours. But sure, it wasn’t an attack. How delusional.

And they’re planning yet another attack. On Parler.

If that attack or "riot" or terrorist act as some call it was so bad how were they able to open up the buildings hours later to take votes? Yet there are still billions of dollars of storefront still boarded up and left burned to the ground as rubble from the months of the riots from the leftists?

When one group does billions in damage for months and months, threatens American citizens for days...weeks.. months, terrorizes homes, tries to burn down federal buildings, burns businesses, loots stores until their empty, roams the streets with clubs, shields and weapons with no police around to protect the citizens... that's called a "peaceful demonstration".

When another group of demonstrators, media and questionable rally attendees (later known to be antifa members) are literally allowed by the police to walk into a government building for a few hours... cause a few thousand dollars in damage to windows, doors and furniture inside... that's suddenly called a "terrorist act" against the country.

Wow reading through the comments here.....never realized there were this many Alt-Right on MacRumors.
Tech companies are by nature more liberal. Apple is definitely a left of center company. You'd think that the alt-right and Trumpsters would stay clear of websites and forums dedicated to supporting these companies. I guess that's part of the illogic of it all.

Garbage. Garbage. This was a crowd that was brought to DC, BY THE PRESIDENT, with promises it would BE WILD. The crowd bearing MANY white power and neo nazi symbols for all of us to see (well, some of us?) was told it must be TRIAL BY COMBAT! By Rudy himself, directly in front of the crowd, with its logos of hate. YOU DON'T GET TO PARTY IN THIS CROWD AND NOT BE OF IT. There is no "trying" to understand people who are obsessed with white privilege, trust me. We get it. Some people are losers and feel the need to be both boosted up artificially and defined by, their skin color, creed, and not much else. So sad. So very very sad.
Same standard for all the protests this summer where violence broke out? I guess if you say so.

Well, we really can’t know that because he doesn’t have a typical American name, but I can’t totally disagree that his name could’ve been a trigger for some theories. I disagree that his race was a factor.
 
That’s a load of crap and you know it. And I’m sorry - the party that’s for murdering babies up until birth is NOT the party with the moral compass I’m after.

Pretty sure your Hollywood liberal elite with their pedo rings and child molestation aren’t conservative republicans.

Also, just because a party believes in traditional marriage and family values doesn’t mean they don’t support rights for LGBT. See the difference is, you can believe someone deserves to have rights without necessarily agreeing with or celebrating their chosen lifestyle.
That is a lot of a misinformed information. Where do you get these ideas from?

Sure whatever you say. I have no problem seeing them in society. But I forgot your opinion is the only one that matters. Keep voting Dem and keep living in Baltimore. I do not envy you and your scenery.
 
If conservatives don’t like America, they’re free to leave.

And I mean LEAVE, not try to assume control over parts of it like you tried and failed to do in the 1860s.

Too bad all those liberals that promised to leave if Trump was elected didn’t follow through.

I was unaware the President was inciting violence at BLM.

What's with all of you conservatives being so fixated on the BLM riots? You seem to always play the "whataboutism" angle and not focus on the issue.

BLM - In response to systemic racism and killing of minorities from WHITE America and police
Capitol Riots - White America/Trump supporters were incited by the PRESIDENT and his CRONIES to storm the CAPITOL and try to OVERTHROW democracy

Don't you see that it is trump supporters that are the instigators for both of these? But no, continue to blame everything on antifa and bury your head in the sand and love trump for reasons unbeknownst to me.
