Comments by "Jack Haveman" (@JackHaveman52) on "This is politics at its worst: Alabama Republican" video.

@carlHarrison-dt1fj What party is the one that support CRT, which says that whites are inherently racists and want that taught in schools? Who supports DEI, which goes against the Civil Rights Act, which says that a person's race, gender identity, religious affiliations are not to be discriminated against or given preferential treatment? It's NOT the GOP. The GOP supports that idea that identity affiliations are irrelevant under the law. It's the Democrats who support racial segregation in dormitories and graduations. It was Democrats who said that Asian students should be forced to have higher SAT scores so another race could get preferential treatment in university admissions. Then they were angry when the Supreme Court ruled that this was Unconstitutional. This is what's causing hate. Putting people into identity boxes and then pointing fingers at the ones who they think is the problem.

@JohnBarron-s4c Do you know what's even more despicable? Supporting the idea that we MUST affirm a child's identity claims and allow them puberty blockers, drugs and surgeries on their say so. This is the only place in medicine where the patient, who can be minors, are the ones diagnosing their own mental health. As long as they support the genital mutilation of minors, I will NEVER vote Democrat. As long as they support affirmative action, which cheated Americans of Asian heritage of placements in our top universities in the name of DEI, I will NEVER vote Democrat. As long as they pit race, gender, ethnicity, religions and other identities against one another, I will NEVER vote Democrat. Trump may be a little uncouth but he never support the amputation of healthy breasts off of a 15 year old girl and he NEVER say that hundreds of riots which killed over 25 people, injured thousands more and caused billions in property damage, are just "peaceful" protests. Also, he does NOT support what's happening in the Democrat supporting cities of America. The homelessness, the open drug abuse and deaths by overdose and the deterioration of once great cities like San Francisco and New York. Kamala is the ONE??? She tried to put the mother of a girl with sickle cell anaemia in jail because her daughter missed school due to hospitalisations and much needed blood transfusions to save her life. It took her 2 YEARS to finally have the charge dismissed, even though the mother had all the medical proof to back her up. That woman is a monster.

@davegar1816 I was speaking about immutable traits that can't be helped when I was speaking about identity boxes.....specifically race. Those traits do not describe who we are as individuals, what we believe in, our integrity, honesty and desire to care for one another. What you're talking about is political ideology. That's NOT an identity. It's a belief system. You can be black, Asian, white or any ethnicity to have the same political beliefs. it has NOTHING to do with racial identity. I believe that slavery is wrong. I would have supported the party that fought to abolish slavery. If that would have been the Democrats, I would have been behind them......but they didn't. So, I would have supported the GOP. Would I have been wrong? Answer that as honestly as possible. I'll bet that you won't.

@JohnHallett5846isaPrick I suppose that you supported slavery. I've heard that laughter is how Democrats cope with losing their right to own slaves. It's kinda sad, really.

@DahHar117 I didn't say that. I SAID that I would have supported the party that wanted to abolish slavery. "Would have supported". That implies that this support would have been there at the time that slavery was abolished. NOT now. What good would it be to support a party for something that happened over 150 years ago. Right now, I'm appalled at the idea of drug and surgical intervention for children who claim to be transgender. I could never support a party that is in favour of such horrific policies. That would be the Democrats. Also, I could never support the party that support segregation in schools and in hiring practices.....affirmative action. The Democrats support affirmative action and the segregation of university dormitories and graduations. In fact, it was California Democrats who wanted to repeal the California state Civil Rights Act, an act which forbade discriminatory and preferential treatment according to race, gender....etc. I can't support that as an ideology. Maybe you can but I can't. Don't put words in my mouth and don't lay traps for me to fall into. It's sneaky and should be above ethical practices.

@DahHar117 The California Civil Rights Act is against both discrimination and preferential treatment based on race, etc. That means if you give preference to one race over another, that's against the law in California AND the United States. The Democrats wanted to repeal the Act because they did want to give preferential treatment. The thing is how can you give preferential treatment to one group without discriminating against another? They go hand in hand. My statement said "would have" supported the Republicans to abolish slavery. I also said that I would have supported the Democrats, WOULD HAVE being the important part, had they wanted to abolish slavery. I was talking about had I been alive BACK THEN. NOT now. At the time of slavery. Then I went on to say that TODAY I can't support those who want to allow drugs and surgeries to transgender minors. I also can't support CRT and DEI. That's TODAY, not at the time of slavery but what's happening right now. Also, I don't mean it as a badge of honour. I meant it as a matter of fact. Yes, Democrats do support segregation in school dormitories and graduations and support affirmative action. It's quite inconsistent. Democrats support segregation at UCLA campuses in LA and Berkeley, Western Washington in Seattle, Roper Hall in Washington DC, MIT and more. It's sad that you can't understand past and present tense. It would sure help you in understanding what I'm saying.
