Legally speaking, Tlaib is white and AOC could identify as white.

I am so sick of Americans being pitted against one another.
We are all Americans, and I am sick of people trying to divide us on things like ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, race, etc.
We need leadership that works on uniting us and bringing us together, not dividing us and tearing us apart.

A friend and I were sitting outside her house the other day as they were loading up their Uhaul to move. She said the same thing (she is Cambodian). We both agreed that it makes us sick that it's played so much. She said that so many are missing out on such awesome people by looking at color vs who they are (completely agree with her too). I'm sure going to miss her,her family...and her momma's egg rolls.

Lol...like most whites have anything worth taking. From where I sit, most whites are living on the edge. And I’m not swayed by excessive displays of ostentation either. Most of that crap is financed on credit.

So nah...that ain’t it. Thinking that does help you with self flattery though.

This.


For some reason though, Liberals seem to think that being a minority is some type of automatic shield against criticism.

As if the color of their skin, gender confusion etc gives them immunity.

I never heard anyone ask Tea Party why they are lacking in minorities or women.

So now you think we should bring someone on because of their race, not because of what they stand for or what they are capable of? Interesting....

The "Poor Me Squad" is only interested in using people that hold onto a victim mentality who have no self reliance, self worth, nor accountability. They must identify as "people of color" to continue the poor me, I'm prejudiced against solely because I am brown, and a woman. It is just classic deception.

Horrible analogy. The Tea Party was a grass roots, voluntary movement. If there were fewer minorities or women they CHOSE not to join. In fact there were many women and some minorities but that doesn't fit your biased narrative.

The Poor Me Squad is a group of POLTIICIANS. Totally different dynamic from the Tea Party, but you have to create a Strawman to deflect, and continue your dishonesty, don't you?
