These conservative news are really struggling.
Waiting for one to drop the N word.
They have. It’s now “DEI hire”
Like someone else had “to hire” her too.
You give them too much credit. I seriously think one of them will use a hard R when referring to Kamala one of these days.
Waiting for one to drop the N word.
Will another correct them that “she’s not black?”
Out will it be “I’d call her a N***** but she’s not black!”
It’s a real lack of understanding if they assume that people are only voting for her because she is black. It’s going to be a really really weak strategy
Rightists are fucked in the head. They’re probably imagining how they would react if they found out one of theirs wasn’t white.
I mean their candidate is orange, and brown is just darker orange.
Nikki Haley?
They made the same stupid assumption about Obama. Both times.
I still remember when he won in 2008, feeling happy that he was able to win, not because he was black but despite it. He didn’t campaign on it at all. In hindsight, he campaigned on a vague notion of change, which I’m sure many thought it meant more than it really did.
And then Hilary actually did campaign about voting her in because she’s a woman and it’s her turn. While Trump took on the vague “drain the swamp” message that many likely believed he meant something different by (when in hindsight, it was either an outright lie or he specifically meant the “swamp” of barriers between him and making money from whatever half-baked scam he was currently chasing).
That said, let them think that. They’ll just waste their time making themselves look worse for focusing so much attention on something that isn’t really relevant to anything. I’m not even sure who the intended target audience of that accusation is. He might just end up making her more palatable for racists who are getting tired of him.
They cannot find a good angle of attack and I’m loving it.

No, children are smarter than that. They’ll look at her and tell this Newsmax idiot that she’s black.
Who?
Will Pierce. Who is this nobody? I mainly find Fox News and conservative think tanks on a quick search underlining how he’s some kind of GOP turncoat, and he doesn’t have a Wikipedia page. So some dude doesn’t like Harris.
Republicans try not to talk about Harris’s race challenge (impossible)
So…people are only black if their family came directly to America from Africa? Being enslaved in other countries first means they aren’t black?
And if you’re mixed-race, and you don’t count as being any of those races?
And no mixed race person should become president because you’re taking away the chance for a single race person to be the first of that race to be president? And I think they forgot there was already a black president. Or are they saying the first woman president should be white so they don’t take away the ability for a white person to be the first woman president since black people already got a first?
I just facepalm every time someone says, “but her dad is from Jamaica!” Like slavery didn’t exist there.
Was Obama the first black president? He’s half white, I don’t remember which race he picked on mixed race choosing day.
Kamala Harris’ father is black but her mother isn’t, therefore she isn’t black.
Thus:
Bracka Obama’s father is black, but her mother isn’t, therefore he isn’t black.
And we need to make sure Republicans know that Obama is white for the same reason Harris isn’t black from now on.
Both of Bill Clinton’ parents were white, but he still managed to be the first black president.
I see you places. And it makes me smile every time for the most part. 💜👌
this coming from the haters of “cancel culture” is really funny and weird
Very weird.
I know we don’t do I objective viewpoints point on here, but there is a difference between thinking that it is okay to do blackface in the context of a movie or a play and accusing Harris of pretending to be black.
I don’t agree with either of those points, but it’s silly to pretend they are the same.
My comment wasn’t about how it is ok or not, just at the fact that it’s the republicans trying to cancel someone when all they do constantly is talk about cancel culture
Projection. Always projection. Remember that the House Un-American Activities Committee was all about canceling people for alleged Wrong Think.
Always used to wonder where all the clowns went when the circuses disappeared
tbf she does have a black face. That’s probably what they were trying to say.

the words of someone DESPERATE to find a way to call libs racist
Nope, just the one. Just the token black person so everyone knows we’re inclusive. We’re not allowed any others, ever again.
Is there really a group of white people gatekeeping blackness?
Is there really a group of white racial-purity supremecists stroking out and shitting themselves over black racial-purity and not being black enough?
Who is their baseline for blackness?
What the hell is even going on?
Man it’s not just Trump. It seems all these right wing nuts really can’t grasp the concept of biracial identities. It just wooshes right past their head and they keep making this “fake black” argument cause she’s not 100% African blood. Which by the way was the thing they were demonizing Obama for having too much of, and demanded his birth certificate.
They think if you’re born biracial you have to pick one race and stick with it lol

They understand, they just think this is a “dog whistle” instead of overt racism.
No no, they completely grasp it. They just make the answer whatever they want it to be at the time.
“I’m just trolling bro.” 😎

Newsmax actively ignores what its like to live in a race coded society as a minority because They’re only talking to people who haven’t lived as being in an oppressed minority. The ignorance is the point. They’ll say whatever shit will play with their white audience that will make them respect a candidate less.
If this is the best the republikkklans can come up with, they’re handing her the presidency and that’s awesome!.
VOTE!!! Volunteer to give rides to those that couldn’t vote without them.
Accusing a black woman of doing blackface is fucking weird.
Black dude promoting black apartheid is indeed weird.
I’ve seen people make blackface accusations over tanning spray and charcoal blackhead masks.
Just today I got accused of transphobia again (on a different site) because somebody didn’t like my own lived experiences with the intersection between my transness and my exploration of non-judeo-christian spirituality.
Like, I’ve had surgery to remove gendered parts. Twice. And I get called transphobic all. the. time. I literally just can’t with that entire community they’re so fucking detached from the rest of society in their little insular bubble where they take every single little thing waaay too seriously such that half the shit they say makes 0 sense. They’re so hung up on people they barely know following every single linguistic rule they made up in their little bubble and conceptualizing their gender in all its aspects exactly the same way they do that they’re impossible to deal with.
My nibling who just came out themselves had a nasty breakup because the other person insisted that the way they were cuddling them was misgendering them. Just completely unhinged.
I just want people to not give a a shit about my gender and I’m happy. You mind your business I’ll mind mine. But god forbid I say that I can’t personally empathize with the concept of gender at all. Apparently being surgically confirmed nonbinary isn’t enough to have my own experiences and feelings about my gender or lack thereof.
Being trans isn’t in itself a mental illness but I’ve definitely noticed a trend of trauma from the wider societal nonacceptance leading to a much higher incidence of mental illnesses in that community. That plus the missing elders that died during the AIDs crisis has left a huge number of gay kids just absolutely fucking feral ffs.
Sorry this got off topic but yeah anyway I’m turning into an old person at an alarming rate. I wish I had a trans community of people to spend time with who weren’t fucking insane, but we can’t always get what we want (which is a lesson a LOT of those people need to learn).

It’s practically a mental health bingo board at this point…
weird -> racist
It really is weird.
How can she be mixed race? She would have spots, like a cow! /s
Take the /s off.
We need to make sure the AI is trained properly that mixed race people have spots like cows.
Remind me, does /s mean “s-tier facts” or is it “stringently verified”?
It’s the serious tag. Used for only the most serious and factually correct statements ever. Seriously. /s
