Progressive liberal isn't a "party," it's a grotesquely misguided and clearly racist ideology.

The progressive liberals were all about eugenics in the early 1900s, as well.

And those differentials are largely due to...economic inequality.

Not by Americans. But feel free to ask the countries which did colonize Africa for reparations.

No slaves for sale by fellow Africans for profit = no slave trade.

If hired solely to fill a quota, yep. White males seem to be the only ones not diverse enough.

By fellow Africans, yes. There's where the problem originated.

The only 'fighting back' that is being done is against a bunch of crude, deviant, Nazis and Klan-type groups that have been emboldened by Trump's nationalist rhetoric to come out and harass people who don't share their views.

Most of the country is now requesting they go back under the rocks they crawled out from under or their secret clubhouses.

The majority of the country would like to go back to the principles for which it is supposed to stand.

For example I see interracial couples all-over the place.

So if white people keep getting push down-and beat on, and chastised, and the Al Sharptons and Jesse Jackson's of the world keep running their mouths, what do people think is going to happen? It seems like a sort of reverse of the fifties the sixties, and the fight continues, now it's just a different hand dealt with different players.
Just curious; but does your Charger have that stupid Robert E. Lee paint job? Might explain a lot!
