You're just in delusional denial.
It's not forced segregation, you just can't get through one discussion honestly can you? You want to see real modern segregation, take a trip to Greenwood or Yazoo City, Mississippi; and last I checked, it's not Democrats running those towns anymore.....

It's not forced segregation? Helloooo... Zoning laws, anyone? NIMBYs. They permeate blue cities and states. Total failure to implement school choice/vouchers to keep those schools as segregated as possible? Etc. Are you blind? Can you really not see it?

Whatever your delusion, it's a FACT that Northern, East Coast, and West Coast blue cities/states and their schools are the most racially segregated, by design.

You missed your calling as a stand up comedian, because the bolded is hilarious
You have a bizarre sense of humor. Either you are sadly misinformed or willfully ignorant. I say it is the latter because clearly you've made no effort to research the issue at hand.

It's truly laughable that you think today's dems are centrists. SMH

He can't see it because he refuses to see it. IOW, willful ignorance.

He thinks that the south is racist while the north is not. Of course, he isn't aware as to what things are like in northern blue states. Having been raised in a racist town in a very blue state and been on the receiving end of that racism and bigotry, I know that racism exists in the north.

Remember, he also thinks today's dems are centrist, when in fact they have been going further and further left

You two are so delusional, no wonder the cheeto had enough gullible idiots vote for him. And yes, both parties have migrated to the right (at least among elected officials and party heads in the case of Democrats, but the party and it's members for Republicans)
