Years of comedic "guy on street" interviews have made me super paranoid about these kinds of videos.
 
If minority students would like a home free of the majority power, that's fine. College is a place to experiment and find oneself, to seek both confrontation and safe space.

If I was black, I might like a dorm without ignorant and privileged punks running their mouths.
 
Hi there fellow DP liberals!
If you're a Democrat, or a liberal, or a progressive, or a socialist, or even a Communist, or ANY kind of lefty, please watch this video, then vote in the 1 question POLL.



When the (cultural) left's base was composed primarily of middle class white liberals, they opposed segregation, because it made middle class white liberals feel bad.

Now that the cultural left's base is composed primarily of racial minorities, they're coming around to supporting segregation, since it is the natural desire of all people who aren't wealthy enough to use class segregation as a proxy. Unlike classical segregationists, however, they will make no pretense of providing equal opportunity.

So go ahead and vote then, or are you too scared?

So when whites are minority in this country, in around 20 years or so, then we can have our own spaces too, right?

I'm not any kind of liberal, so out of respect for your poll I refrained from voting.

Does that make it a liberal value?

No, you're wrong. The majority in question is power not population. While whites may become a minority population, their hold on 90% of the power will result in proportional power representation generations later, notwithstanding social unrest.

I'm not a liberal and that's not my poll.
 
I don’t get it. If you’re at university (a place of higher learning) why segregate yourselves, if we’re truly all equal, get in there mix it up and be equal.

This is in response to Grim17's thread about how liberals are the same as the Klan


my apologies-I voted. and while I identify as a classical liberal, I know that is not what you meant.
 
Of course not. Because you don't actually care about minorities. You're just anti-white.

You caught me. Down with whitey.
 
And why is the poll segregated to left leaners?

They used to call that "segregation" and it was considered racist, hence Browne VS Board of education. I thought "diversity" was all the rage?

No.

Black people voluntarily taking part in a racial safe space for living quarters is not historical segregation.

"Diversity" is coded language for less white people. So all-white housing is bad, because it's not "diverse", but all-black housing is good, because it is "diverse".
 
No.

Your right, it's modern segregation. The fact it is voluntary as opposed to mandated by law does not change that. If anything, it is cause for more concern in the state of current race relations in America.

I'm so glad my brain doesn't do that.

No.

It's a racial safe space that people can volunteer to make use of if they'd prefer a breather from ignorant privileged little punk white boys in their home.

Also, why did you initially vote "no" then?
