SaysWho? Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 10 minutes ago, elbobo said: that was my take away too, when Bernie is doing 4x better than you with black voters you have a problem. I need to delve into the numbers to see what the name recognition is among African-Americans. Warren's a pretty known quantity, those not as well-known as Biden or Sanders, and they didn't really delve into race in the first debate as they did in the second. With the size of the field, we'd really have to look at the numbers to see if it's anti-Warren or they're just split more to people like Harris, Biden, Sanders and Booker right now as their number 1 choice.

I've heard several commentators discuss how African Americans won't support a minority or woman candidate unless they are convinced white voters support that candidate too. Sanders is the only "safe white guy" in the top tier besides Biden. Harris could convince them if she does well in Iowa and New Hampshire.

That is indeed how Obama won the nomination, proving to Hillary's deep African American base that he could win elections. Sanders never got that base away from her and lost. Biden has it now but Harris is siphoning it away. It really felt from the debate that she knows where her path is and what she needs to do to get it.

Social class is irrelevant to addiction shaming and making fun of those with mental illnesses. Caring about mental illness and raising money for it and educating people on the rarest of mental illness -- which, psst, I've actually done all three -- means caring about everyone since these things don't discriminate based on class. If you actually care about a man in Florida who's suffering from mental illness who now is the butt of a joke despite what could be an untold life of service, you need to care about all who suffer or else it's just sharing Twitter posts and virtue signaling.

Here's someone in the upper class who had a mental illness: Even before his suicide, he was facing the consequences of mental illness despite being able to afford care. If you say you care about mental illness, you need to actually care about it. 5 minutes ago, RedSoxFan9 said: It’s entertaining to see our precious bourgeois libs get upset someone was poking fun at the son of a former senator and Vice President. Good job guys! It's more that nobody buys you actually care about people with addiction problems and mental illnesses. In fact, if a poor person with a mental illness was one of your Kamala Harris supporting libs, I'm pretty sure you'd look down on them in a heartbeat. Unlike you, I've actually educated people on mental illness and used my job to help raise money for local organizations. I'd be happy to direct you to places you can volunteer if you'll work as hard as you share tweets. Otherwise, it's virtue signalling and not a deep-seeded care of those in poverty and suffering from anxiety, depression, psychosis and every illness on the planet.

If you have an addiction or mental illness, it's not consequence-free by default. You don't get to selectively care about certain people with mental illnesses. Do you, like... actually know anybody with mental illnesses? You seem woefully ill-equipped to talk about this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_m_b_m_b_m Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Rsf means free from legal consequences. Florida man stories put on full display poor people who have mental health and addiction issues, and then get caught by law enforcement, where that may not happen to someone who is wealthier. Addict shaming either way though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already covered this: I don't think you understand that legal consequences are irrelevant to fighting mental illness and promoting education of it regardless of your class.
