This is my preferred reading as well, but neoliberalism likes to keep its oppression and overt violence overseas, while Trump's rhetoric brings it out into the open at home. This is not denying that America was always a racist, sexist state, but now the elected power is no longer shy about hiding it.
- johnfjacobi 10y agoNot sure why you're getting downvoted. This seems like a legitimate opinion to me.
- omonra 10y agoMy guess is that this is due to a matter of fact stating of a rather controversial opinion held by a minority of the population.
- legodt 10y agoMy tone may have been blunt but I will stand firmly behind that America's race and gender relations, despite great progress in the last few decades, leaves much to be desired and in most parts of the country it is dangerous to be a part of a marginalized group.
- omonra 10y agoYou missed my point. I don't care what you happen to believe. I'm pointing out that people probably objected to inserting a debatable & unpopular held view as a subclause in another argument. That forces people to either go along with accepting your point or getting into a pointless & unsettleable argument that's not even being discussed.
