That one is just like Trump. He wants to hide the truth from his own people.

I smell a heightened level of desperation in your tone

Honduran Caravans - everybody so quickly forgot about that. Southern border wall is now just another one of the public infrastructure projects you will need to get some of the 50 million unemployed back to work

Mueller - no one cares

Ukraine and Impeachment - well, no one really cared about Ukraine in the first place

Bat virus - once it hit Iran and Italy, world was never going to get rid of it

Free trainers from Foot Locker for George Floyd - well, speaks for itself

Two terms, deal with it

 

Biden's 14 point lead nationwide in the polls is no joke. even if you argue it was a CNN poll so it's naturally biased.

And the latest FOX News poll in Wisconsin is damning, if trump loses in Wisconsin he doesn't stand a chance.

btw are you delusional? 84% of Americans support the protesters,

 

Now it really means little much time until election... As I stated before I cant wait for the debates THEN we shall see whats going on

 

go dems

Antifa activist facing assault charges was tied to Democratic policymakers

 

But COVID won’t spread at BLM rallies though

 

Then why is Trump and his white house staff in panic mode over the numbers if they don't matter?

 

Cause Trumps a Moron

 

Because we're on the side of the righteous.

COVID-19 will tear through the Trump rallies like a hot knife through butter. ...lol...

 

Lol ok Karen

 

Let's see the "dems" are somehow in trouble because a man discovered to be an Antifa activist was once active an a group opposing payday loans and was photogrphed with chairs of committees overseeing financial regulatory policies he was advocating. Shades of Joe McCarthy. So--Republican!

 

Guilt by association used BY many against Trump just tit for tat

 

Gee. With all the guilt of his own, who needs association?

Policing should be about serving the public good but many neoliberal policies were about defund social services with the result that problems arising from that defunding were offloaded onto the police. The defunding idea as far as I can tell is to reverse that – fund social services so the police can tackle the things they should be tackling.

Social services to be effective has to be based on the ideas of ‘the most amount of good to the most amount of people’ - NOT on Social Darwinist and a philosophy of ‘life isn’t fair’ so what is the point in trying to help.

The thing is that the police are not trained for such social services and has traditionally been attractive to those with right leaning views.

In 2016 a survey of police officers indicated that 84% said they would vote for Donald Trump (Hillary was supported by 8%, Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson received 5%, and "other" received 3%).

So let us imagine if you had police officers with similar views to say Wrats -who recently shared his views on slavery - then that ideal of public service goes out the window it would be purely about self-interest coupled with a disregard for the wellbeing of others. Social Darwinist views are very common amongst right wingers, neoliberalism is built on its foundation.

In a philosophy of ‘life isn’t fair’ it would come down to ‘might is right’, of those with power and those that are powerless, I’s not about the public good, it’s not about been fair or just, or of working to make a better society.

And voters of a similar right wing political and philosophical viewpoint are likely to be accepting of such a system and that has basically been what has been happening in many parts of the US

I mean the abuses went on in plain sight, the militarisation of the police went on in plain sight, everyone knew about the ‘bad apples’ but those voters with a philosophy based on Social Darwinism and self-interest didn’t care because these things didn’t really affect them and when you view is ‘life isn’t fair’ then you don’t really care if it happens to other people.

Let’s just hope things and will change

 

Well, looks like India is the new China

You'll be getting all your cheap stuff from India soon


China and India’s tense border dispute: Massive troop movements has world on edge

 

I already do, I like my curry !!!

 

So adding on from what i posted above right wing viewpoints based in Social Darwinist thinking are likely to bread contempt for the disadvantaged (and racism) rather than empathy or sympathy for the hardships and plight of others but which are likely to bring about feeling of superiority and entitlement.

(You can see that entitlement and superiority on display within the Trump administration)

Now people could argue in the old chicken or egg way over whether right wing views brought about the racism or racism causes people to support right wing ideas. But it has to be understood when rebuilding the police in the US that the two often go together.

 

Yeah, i'm not a fan of most baked goods either
