I go along with this argument, Bj, but I can't seem to feel myself applying it to Rags 'n Dippers.Morning mate, I have seen you post quite a few times about upsetting and pissing off the opposition to conventional views.
The way I see it is we shouldn’t want to piss people off, that results in the fracturing of society, even if some people are bigots, we should want to try and change their minds and extend an olive branch to bring them closer to the centre of political discourse and away from the extreme fringes.
Pissing Trump supporters off isn’t the way to move forward, yes arrest and charge those that are criminal but the 10’s of millions who voted for him before Christmas need to be conversed with to find out what has gone wrong, to try and improve the situation.
Pissing people off will result in more events like happened at the Capitol and whilst it is obviously entirely the fault of those that turned up, the other side shouldn’t be purposefully trying to antagonise them in the future to make matters worse.

Just stating a fact, a large element of Trump fans will be angry at the thought of a Black Women as president - there is no reasoning with them. I would love everyone in the US not to be racist fuckwits.
Well it isn’t.It's not what I think you meant but it could be the logical conclusion of your post.

I have thought that she was possibly the preferred candidate over Biden in the "fight" against Trump...but it was thought to be too much of a change for the average american voter.
She seems good...calm...confident...the things you look for and need in a leader. And is clearly the main contender in 4 years time.
I believe that the republicans could actually come back stronger and more unified if/when they successfully cut ties with Trump and i fear it will be too soon for what is (sadly) such a monumental change for american politics....a black, female, democrat president.

So would why, I would everyone on Earth not to be.Just stating a fact, a large element of Trump fans will be angry at the thought of a Black Women as president - there is no reasoning with them. I would love everyone in the US not to be racist fuckwits.
My point was that a lot of your posts seem to be about pissing the other side off though, taking Harris out of the equation specifically for a second, and I think we need to talk to them and try and bring them back into the frame of normal/decent society.

1. Remove Trump
2. Include 'don't be a racist when you grow up' in school classes
3. ensure Black people are not discriminated when applying for jobs and other stuff.
4. much tougher penalty's for racist online abuse
5. much tougher penalty's for being openly racist
I don’t quite know what this has to do with my post.1. Remove Trump

It's a start in how to bring America back to a more normal society in taking acceptance to a black women president.
