    I mean, I get it.

    It’s why you don’t buy a white couch. It shows all the stains. You want a darker colored couch to hide dirt, orange juice spills, that kind of thing.

    Only rich people have money for a white couch. Because if you spill some wine on it, and the stain won’t come out, they can afford to replace it, no questions asked.

      I guess it depends on the stain. Maybe there’s good reason Vance needs a white couch

    “A multi ethnic America is dirty!” he said about a country that exists from the colonisation and immigration of a hundred different ethnicities.

      Maybe he thinks that the whites in America should go back to England???!

      Because the one true original ethnicity in America are Native-Indians and everybody else who came afterwards, including his own ancestors, were the ones making it multi-ethnic.

        Pretty sure there were also Germans, and Poles, and French, and Swedish, and Dutch, and Spanish, and Portuguese, and Italians, and quite a lot of Irish and one particular point in history.

        The remaining tribes would then proceed to kill each other (as they did before the English ever arrived).

        The tribes were not one ethnicity, either.

    Sociopaths only ever care about themselves and for them everybody else - even their children - are only worth as much as the utility they have for the sociopath.

    I would like this dude to come to queens in NYC, the most ethnically diverse area in the world. The actually when there to study genetics with DNA samples. They’ll give him a NY welcome for racists.

    the german far right leader (female) is married to an indian woman and when asked about how that relates to her plans of deporting brown people she said her wife ‘does not count because she was adopted by a white family in switzerland’

    i mean, they also run a populist platform aimed at poor people with a libertarian program to wipe out social assistance though, so why am i even suprised by the hypocrisy?

        i can’t imagine any point in history where it would be acceptable to sell your own children into slavery. i think even in ancient greece, you wouldn’t sell your own child as a slave.

          People did this all of the time, not sure about the Greeks specifically (but I would assume they did also).

          If you were dead broke, you married off one of your kids… if you couldn’t do that, you sold them.

          People still do this TODAY.

          Imagine if you couldn’t feed your own children. Wouldn’t selling them be preferable to watching them waste away until their inevitable demise?

          (not that Jefferson did it because he was starving, he just needed some walkin’ around money)

          The Bible specifically addresses it. Male Hebrew slaves were to be released after a period of time, daughters sold were slaves for life.

      Also maybe the idiot who married The Couchfucker™ is full of so much self loathing that it’s “trickled down” to the kids.

      We all know that conservatives love the trickle down idea…
