Discussion: D'Souza: African-Americans Better Off Because Ancestors Were 'Hauled From Africa To America'

Discussion for article #224497

Again - stupid people used to have the decency to be ashamed of their stupidity and STFU.

Nowadays we just rebroadcast what they say. Keep it up, TPM.

Hilariously delusional and utterly full of themselves.
Yeah, Atlas Shrugged III will finally turn us all into Randians, and Nicolas Cage’s Left Behind will make us see the folly of the separation of church and state.

Fund concludes that while the movie isn’t “perfect,” and its arguments
“sometimes aren’t sophisticated,” it is “the perfect film to take the
family to on a Fourth of July.”

Other than Ed Wood’s “Plan Nine From Outer Space”

I’m just hoping that Obama’s first (or last) line in the movie is “Where the white women at?”

Does anyone on the right, middle, or left really take this pitiful excuse for a political thinker seriously anymore? Sure, he’s good for a laugh because he’s always embarrassing himself by yelling “look at me! I’m trying to be controversial!”, but c’mon.

I had an entire dissertation typed before I scrapped it. I just want to say, can we just enact a moratorium on Republicans telling disenfranchised groups how good they actually have it?

Projection much???

“[Progressives] are not on the side of the ordinary citizen, because
their policies lead to stagnation, impoverishment, indebtedness, and
decline — all in evidence today,” he writes. "It is progressives who
rely on government seizure and bureaucratic conquest to achieve their
goals and increase their power. . . . I intend to blow the whistle on
these people, starting with Obama and continuing with Hillary Clinton
and the whole progressive menagerie.”

All of Ed Wood’s movies are better cinematically and make far more sense intellectually than D’Souza’s deranged bit of right-wing frippery.

Conservatives always wonder, with some frustration and a great deal of condescension, why they can’t convince more blacks to be conservative, and they think it’s just a lack of knowledge by the blacks (and I’m being awfully generous with that description). The truth is, blacks can hear conservatives when they say shit like this out loud.

I’m hoping it’s only because TPM does it for the laughs, which I welcome this morning sipping my morning coffee waiting for the Hobby Lobby decision to come down .

Of course in 2008 it was the same thing with “Barack Obama” instead of “Hillary Clinton”. In 2024 it’ll be “[fill in the blank]”
instead of “Hillary Clinton”.

Real title of D’Souza’s film: White America, what would I do without her…and my mistress.

Does D’Souza feel the same way about British colonial rule in his native land? This is the type of racist tripe that we’ve heard for years. It’s illogical on its face. He’s claiming that Progressives depend on government seizure, yet he argues that government seizure of Native American land increased its value.

My dog makes better arguments chasing her tail…

We’re not giving back the Black Hills because the Indians didn’t know what to do with uranium in 1874. I guess that’s the kind of argument John Fund meant when he said the arguments “sometimes aren’t sophisticated.”
