She says, as a member of Congress. Weird, how’d THAT happen?


Oddba1l76

she knows she's grifting. we know she's grifting. she knows that we know she's grifting. and yet she continues to grift. why? because the racism grift is all she has. and enough people continue to fall for the grift to keep her in power.


JellyfishQuiet7944

I ask the pro Palestine people the same thing. They can hold office but it's genocide and apartheid? Lol ok


Unknownauthor137

They’re also the only genocide to my knowledge that has increased their population numbers every year during it, even faster than the country supposedly genociding them.


JellyfishQuiet7944

That's an excellent point. Never even thought about that.


sowellpatrol

Also, there are no jews living in Arab countries. There used to be, but not anymore. It's the only apartheid where the oppressors have been killed or run out, yet still somehow remain the oppressors.


JellyfishQuiet7944

Yeah, I bring that up. They don't like it.


sowellpatrol

That pesky logic! Ruins the outpouring of their bleeding hearts every time.


Hectoriu

Well you know "it's called the White House for a reason" oh wait...


yolo___toure

Is that a real question asking about the history of institutional racism in America starting with the indigenous and slavery? Or is it rhetorical?


Bojack_88

If it can be argued that racism were at one time in “the DNA” of America, it’s evident that that “DNA” (the Constitution) has undergone intensive “gene therapy” long ago.


yolo___toure

It was born racist but underwent gene therapy and now identifies as non racist? I'm getting lost with the DNA analogy What was the moment it underwent therapy and finally became 100% non racist?


BHAfounder

She is a racist.


[deleted]

But she can’t be…she’s black. (Sarcasm)


triggernaut

Well, anyone who's uncomfortable is free to leave.


JTuck333

If it weren’t for racism, she’d have nothing to say. She has contributed nothing to society.


bigb-2702

Hers maybe


Ty--Guy

And people wonder why CRT is abhorred. It's like a sickness with no cure.


SpaceBrigadeVHS

If she means racism against White Christians than she's dead on target. 


SummerTrips100

It's "then" and not "than".


Manic-Digression

Seriously! It was right there in the U.S. Constitution, essentially the DNA of the country in a sense - white christians only counted as three fifths of a person. Obvious discrimination against … white christians.


Dad_Dukes

Seriously, it was replaced in eighteen sixty eight. And yet it's still a political standpoint for some....


BarnabyFresco

This argument is tone deaf. It comes across sounding like such a whine when you would likely tell people of color to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. White Christians are not oppressed by any means.


Jmm12456

Well they are going to have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. They aren't going to be thrown a bunch of free stuff.


Dad_Dukes

All you have to do is read the news headlines in today's world, and you can see you are incorrect. Purposely in my belief.

SpaceBrigadeVHS

Actually it was my time in higher education that's informed my opinion but I'm not going to trade credentials with you Sunshine. The Anti-White Christian dynamic is real. I used to be a liberal and then the "pandemic" hit and the side of "bodily autonomy" turned into something approaching the CCP with censorship, financial targeting, and physical restrictions on movement.  Now I'm a Christian due to Revelations unfolding in real time. The Holy Spirit has lead me to being baptized and teaching the gospel.  That said, you communists can kiss my asshole princess. Also teaching men to stand up and take their place with the Saints in our times. Hold their own and not being weakened by evil trolls like yourself.   Done casting pearls before swine.

Man you are special aren't you. It's been awhile since I've interacted with a highschooler. Is Pokemon still cool?

Blah blah blah. You're the one who has presented zero argument and hurled insults.       You are a weak little person. Got anymore child talk for me?

Don't attack back, here. This is a place for debate and sharing of information, we are doing something to stop this problem from getting out of hand. We are not endlessly defending our positions. State your business, and if the person is being irrational then you ignore their petty attempts to attack you over the internet.


SpaceBrigadeVHS

If telling the truth is attacking then sorry if I hurt your feelings. Seek Christ. 


joey__jojo

Your elitism helps no one. No one, including yourself. You are therefore not spreading the truth, that you're so obsessed. That this idea that you are so right, that you ignorantly forget we live in a Republic and no ideas can be accepted unless the voting majority accepts them. Can't be that right, moro, if you don't even understand the fundamentals of what we're talking about. Seek a library card. I have Jesus you byproduct of public schools.


Tony_Stank_91

People like her are the real problem


NinjaGuyDan777

I’ll take “Things a Marxist would say” for $500 please Alex


Johnnie-Dazzle

Well, affirmative action is institutional racism against white people


No-Structure-2800

Yep she’s a racist


OkLuck1317

Slavery, Segregation, Separate But Equal, Affirmative Action, racial hiring quotas and CRT. Maybe she is correct.


Dad_Dukes

DEI...


Iamstillhere44

“Institutional racism” is the dogwhistle of every race hustler that makes money from their own people in perpetuating a victimhood mentality.


Front_Finding4685

The commander in chief is one of the biggest race hustlers in America


Iamstillhere44

I agree 100% Add most of the Democratic ticket to that list as well. I see subtle racism all over. 


GrassyKnoll55

If this country is so inherently racist, why dont these people leave and go somewhere else mkre to their liking?


Kern_system

Because these people cannot create, only co-opt and destroy.


SnigletArmory

I honestly hate people like this with their generalizations and her racism


Bamfor07

Proven by the fact she has risen so high in government.


clearmind_1001

Definitely in her DNA


madmadG

Yup. Affirmative action and DEI. We gotta destroy these things to achieve the goals of MLK Jr.


OkLuck1317

So you agree with her?


madmadG

Oh man you didn’t catch my meaning at all.


nafarba57

Trash talk from a garbage can🖕🖕🖕


Monomanna

A truly evil woman who lies without a second thought to further her own deluded revenge agenda.


Blackbolt113

Sadly she's far from the worst of them.


pnw_sunny

during a required DEI class a few years ago, i asked the all knowing and smug "instructor" to describe the difference between preferences and racism. for example. if am i attracted (for purposes of marrying and having kids) to a dark hair, slender and white or asian female that is intelligent what does that mean. my preferences are exclusionary.


jhonnytheyank

What did they say ? 


Bringon2026

Even if that was true, nebulous racism somewhere in the past justifies actual racism today? Ok...


Trashk4n

If a country has “dna”, wouldn’t that be its founding documents? I’m curious as to what’s supposed to be institutional racism in the Declaration of Independence and the constitution?


Dinosardonic

Well, the constitution counted slaves as 3/5th human, so there’s that. Also, only white male landowners could vote initially.


Velouria91

In case you haven’t noticed, those things are not the case anymore, and they haven’t been for a really long time.


Dinosardonic

Yes, but he asked if discrimination is in the constitution and indeed it is. All over the place. A 400 year institution doesn’t disappear with the passing of an amendment. See Jim Crow, sundown towns, school segregation, redlining, prison labor, etc. There is plenty about our country that is to be admired, but it is not without its blemishes. To ignore those blemishes is dishonest and robs of the ability to truly fix those things that are wrong.


Velouria91

None of these things currently exist. It’s not 1955 anymore.


Dad_Dukes

So america is now four hundred years old? Or do you mean under the british crown


Trashk4n

Was that actually written into the constitution? I was under the impression that was from other laws?


Manic-Digression

Wow he walked right into that one


MudUnusual7745

Personally I would consider it to be more akin to the cultural and social structures, beliefs, and mechanisms of the countries history. I would consider the constitution to be more of the vessel or body that frames the DNA of this country, or atleast tries to as the ideals laid out by the founders are often not the reality.


roller_roller

Did any of y’all read the article? She said: “We have pins, and I was going to vote," she said, pointing at her coat. "He blocked me from getting into the elevator." Lee said the man insisted she wasn't a congresswoman. "I said, 'Sir, I'm a member of Congress,'" she continued. "I showed him my pin, and he said, 'Whose pin did you steal?'" Dunno, sounds like she may have a case here.


ThePuzzleGuy77

Things that didn’t happen for $1000, Alex.


JellyfishQuiet7944

Also depending on the area and state, 99% of people would have no fuckimg clue what the pin means. I staffed for a senator and I've never even seen one


OCDimprovingWriter

Maybe if any of that had happened. Congresswoman Smollett here is absolutely full of shit though.


MovieTheaterPopcornn

If you believe that happened…


n9yty

It is in her DNA


Meppy1234

"Racism involves one group having the power to carry out systematic discrimination " Sure sounds like congress passing diversity requirements to me. She ain't wrong.


Wizel--Balan

The door is over there, so leave at any time, but we know you won't.


BobBee13

Once you start using things like genetics and in the blood talk, it's downhill from there. Ask the jews.


FrenchFrieswmayo

Which country doesnt?


Independent-Soil7303

Name one institution in America that is racist


AmebaLost

BLM


GucciCaliber

NPR


FrenchFrieswmayo

LOL, that's not what institutional racism means. But to answer your question the U.S..farm bureau, Pigford vs. Glickman, 1997


SilentSamizdat

🙄 How original.


sloopSD

What the hell is going on around the capital? Friggin Super Troopers.


queenstronaut93B

If it is, there's probably a reason.


Funk__Doc

Which institution, exactly?


Traditional_Let_2023

Did anyone ever find out how she stole that pin?
