Oh so you voted for Hillary then?
Btw when the GOP says “DEI hire” they mean “<n-word>”
I know this has been posted ad nauseam but it still makes me laugh.
All black people with jobs that aren’t fast food worker or janitor are “DEI hires” because conservatives are racist and don’t believe that black people can actually be qualified for any higher level job.
You’ll never see a conservative praise a business or department for clever hiring if the person/people they just hired happen to be black. It’s either white person or DEI hire to their minds.
What really frustrates me is the sudden latching in to a phrase or acronym. DEI has been corporate policy for a WHILE, in that exact wording. But all of a sudden it’s this hot take talking point insult. Idk I’ve had a few beers I hope that makes sense

You’re 100% correct despite the beer.
What about what about white females?
jesus tapdancing christ, he actually said that. In public. To a reporter.
We need to vote these
peoplefucking racists into oblivion. They genuinely think her skin color is the most important thing about her. Get lost, my country doesn’t need asswipes like you.Shit like this makes me not even care what Kamala does as president. She could sit in the Oval Office and spin around in her chair for four years and still be leagues better than Trump. I’ll vote for her just to upset the racists.
They’re still people. Fucking racist people. People can be terrible.
People? Wait, I thought we were talking about conservatives.
jesus tapdancing christ, he actually said that. In public. To a reporter.
He’s from Tennessee. This will probably get him re-elected.
(To be fair, he could say that 1001 elephants were standing on his toe and get re-elected.)
The problem is their voters think race is the most important factor. They just need a way to imply it and act like they aren’t racist.
The problem is Americans (left, right, center) aren’t demanding this racist piece of shit to resign. This country has tolerated entirely too much racism, sexism, and phoney Christianity over the past 250 years. It’s time we demand these people stop representing America and crawl back into their caves.
To be fair, he said it last night. Maybe Americans won’t demand he resign, but give them a little time.
We’ve been waiting for 250 years. The calls won’t come. And if they do, please come back and tell me I’m wrong. I would love to be wrong.
I’m just saying, give them time to not do it before you condemn them for not doing it.
By all means, please define the appropriate amount of time before I am allowed to be outraged.
Edit: To add on, we already knew this would be the response to an announced Harris campaign and, guess what, it was. As a country, we need to strike back much more expeditiously and severely if we truly want this behavior to stop.
I would suggest that the appropriate time would be not during the night when everyone is asleep about a story that also came out at night.
I’m not sure why you think pointing fingers at people before they even know about something is productive.
They’re not even acting like they aren’t racist why more. “What about white females” is literally a racist foghorn with a hint of incel
This is the 2024 republican party. We are days away from Trump using the N word in public.
I fully recall their fair and rational response last time a white woman ran for Presidents /s
Imagine the terror of a supporter of a rapist felon candidate, who you pretend is chosen by a fake Republican Jesus, being challenged by a candidate who has the audacity to be a woman and black.
And she’s going to win.
Hopefully they will be voting for Harris to protect their lives and the lives of their daughters. The only future for women with the Republicans is servitude.
Did they just endorse Hilary?
Wooooow, him calling her unqualified is so cringe
Just compare their education and work
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Burchett
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris
He’s straight up only qualified to run fucking Tennessee, what an embarrassment for him to call anyone else unqualified
what about white females
Aren’t they supposed to be at home cleaning, cooking, raising kids, and missing out on health care?
Get fukt you backwards ass prick.
Wow. The panic is palpable
If that’s the best they got they’re fucked
What about white females? The right would still call them derogatory names if they didn’t completely and wholeheartedly submit to them.
He doesn’t specify a species. Is he talking about female polar bears? Corn snakes? Albino rats?
Abysmal record of, checks notes, being vp? Gtfo of here you clowns. Do better
And a Senator. And a District Attorney. Elected as both of those, not “hired.”
She hasn’t been “hired” for anything. Of all the issues to take with her, calling her a “DEI Hire” has got to be the most ridiculous.
What a truly idiotic position to take.
Someone here on Lemmy yesterday said her record as a senator would hurt her because she didn’t come up with any major legislation.
As if voters give two shits about who comes up with what in congress and not just the result for them.
Yeah, I’ve been reviewing her record because of all the hate, and I definitely don’t like a former DA as VP/President, but… her record is surprising good from what I can see. She sponsored a ton of good bills, was fairly left-leaning (for a US politician) on the bills she sponsored, and even while a DA/AG she refused to seek the death penalty and tried to work against racist behavior in police (without actually, you know, holding any of them accountable). She wasn’t perfect by any stretch, and she was still a DA who is practically a cop, but she seemed to be one of the better ones (I know, low bar).
I’m not really understanding all the hate she is getting, even from her own side. The amount of “hold your nose and vote for her” seems out of proportion for her record.
Points at brown woman
“Why isn’t she white?”
Somehow this is where our political discourse is
They could always Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies that complete a coherent sentence drop out because he’s too old, and replace him with a white female. Personally, I’d like to see that Jewish space lasers nutjob get her ass handed to her by our current VP.
I made this joke 12 hours ago:
I want to create an account on whatever social media they’re on and agree with them loudly and adding “What are they planning on doing for the white man?” or something similar to every statement.
The Democrats aren’t about regular people anymore! What are they planning on doing for the white man?!?
Except I’m pretty sure a whole shit pile of them would agree with me and nominate me for something or other. Then I’d just be sad.
I guess it was less a joke and more prophetic.
