"The caste system makes it easier for people to accept other forms of exclusion," he explains.
There might also be what he calls "psychological compensation" at play for those Indians who experience prejudice as members of lower castes or the so-called "other backward classes".
"They could feel better by looking at African people and thinking 'at least I am better than that'," he says.
Hispanics and Indians also don't get along. I suspect this will turn off a lot of hispanic voters and will drive some of them toward Trump if they are not already.
Historically, I dont know how far back go, whites are the only group significantly divided on politics. Looking even recently at the 2016 elections, What if only _____ voted
POC unanimously voted for HRC regardless of the breakdown: gender, ethnicity, or education.
Which is the other reason Democrats and the elite became recent advocates of open border immigration. Remember that Bernie interview back when? He said he was NOT for open borders, called it a "Koch brothers proposal" to decrease wages.
Trump is the first President in a while to significantly draw on the historic minority who unanimously democratic base this election.
She met with Biden. She was reported to be pissed, she unfollowed him on Twitter. Everyone assumed that ment he picked someone else
I'm calling it now. She was told the plan, she would be his VP pick because everyone thinks (knows) she's a cunt. They will turn Biden polls down (see CNN and this poll and others lately) DNC will hold their event this week and boot him out with some loop hole.
They will install Sanders as their primary.
Sanders will pick a VP people actually like.
Sanders will look good because Biden is a turd with a mental disorder.
All the anti Biden memes and Harris memes and ads are then a 'waste' of money
I think the keyword here is "had". He had a big following but not bigger than the Democrat Establishment voters. Switching this late in the game will piss off plenty of voters on their side. Not to mention DNC insiders who absolutely chafe at sharing power with the far left upstarts.
'Had' is the keyword. I was super Bernie Bro, 100% true believer and I voted for GEOTUS last time around. Bernie had good draws for his rallies in the primaries before everyone figured out what a con man he was and bailed on the party. He had 5% of the excitement this time around that there was the first time. It was a shadow of what he had in 2016.
Yeah, he'd look great in the polls, but then his lazy ass crybaby supporters will repeat their lackluster 19% turnout like they did in the primaries. He's their stooge to bilk money out of the young and stupid.
While this would be a masterful plan no shot it happens. The reason the DNC fought so hard to stifle Bernie in the primaries was because they knew he would get slaughtered in the general. Americans, who aren't terminally online, do not want socialism. Which is a real problem for them because the entire new generation of democrats are self avowed socialists.
All of their rising stars are unelectable in the general election and even still the entire party is moving left to accommodate at a stunning pace. I really do think if we make it past this election without anything fucky happening the Democrats will be fucked for years to come. Average Americans are coming out of this lockdown terrified by how quickly big government dictated our lives. And the democrats are pushing for bigger and bigger government. I really do think Nancy Pelosi got handed the Democrat party for 4 years and fucked it for 40. Even with the media covering up for it we may have been witness to one fo the greatest political disasters of all time.
"Most people who get covid are asymptomatic, but still spread it"
while potentially true, it's awfully convenient to say that when you want to shut down the entire country in an election year... Especially when we now know the tests are giving off false positives left and right.
I find it interesting that a few people turned Biden down. This has all the hallmarks of running out a known loser so you don't jeopardize more legit candidates for 2024.
It is the Republican's turn, four more years. As a hoodlum, Biden solidifies the famous Washington culture of corruption, which crosses party liines and is bigger than we know.
It is amazing that they literally chose the one candidate that can piss of every group of voter. Here is a list of what each group will think about her:
Black people: She isn't black and owned slaves. She is just using us.
Indian people: She is saying that she is black when really she is Indian.
White people: She is a fake ass race baiter with a laugh worse than Hillary's (this applies to all groups of voters)
Progressives: She is not a true progressive as she locked up a ton of people
Moderate Democrats: She keeps trying to act like a radical progressive, we cannot trust her.
Men: She is a manipulative bitch and reminds me of my psychotic ex.
Normal women: She is fake as hell and sleeps with older men to get ahead.
Feminists: She is constantly sucking up to more powerful men (pun intended)
The DNC idiots chose the most disappointing candidate of the primary process. They tried to hype her up and get her to win, and she couldn't even get 2% of the vote. This is one of the biggest blunders in modern election history.
It really is quite astonishing how bad of a pick this is. Biden's campaign was a trainwreck before, but now it's gone full biohazard spill in the middle of town.
Joe could have taken a big shit, plucked it from the toilet, held it aloft for the cameras and said "This is my running mate" and his numbers would have been better.
jesus christ
Indian American ≠ blakk
NOPE! Indian American = WHITE WHITE WHITE bah ha ha
From what I recall, Indians and blacks really don't like each other.
Well...Indians kept African slaves as well. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/how-native-american-slaveholders-complicate-trail-tears-narrative-180968339/

You don't want to be a Negro in India
Wrong Indian. She's Indian Indian. But her family still had slaves in Jamaica.

I'M PRAYING HE ASKS FOR A RE-PICK BAH HA HA!
Nope - sorry, Joe, but you asked for butterscotch, you get butterscotch. You can have the tapioca tomorrow when 'Matlock' comes on.
But is she voting for Biden?
She met with Biden. She was reported to be pissed, she unfollowed him on Twitter. Everyone assumed that ment he picked someone else

They won’t pick Bernie. It will be Crooked.
People really hate her. That's one thing that hasn't changed a bit since 2016.
You mean Hillaryous?
For the love of God, please let it happen. PLEASE.
Interesting idea to spark enthusiasm, but progressivism is terribly unpopular if you remove social media
Progressives have had their asses stomped massively in every real world election.
You’re 100% correct it’s the party of social media. It’s a fake party living in a fake world.
Imagine if /pol and Alex Jones formed their own party. That would be the right wing equivalent of Progressives.
Yep. Your average Twitter or Reddit user does not represent the average American.
It would be a labour of love.
I still have my meme vault.
DraftOurDaughters
Indians hate her too. They've revoked her race card!
Isn't she due to testify in the senate or something in September? Something like that, would be hard to campaign with that behind you.
Do it!
Bernie’s their guy to grift the college aged unemployed crowd and get them interested in politics. They’d never let him actually be the nominee.
I almost want Hillary to be the surprise convention pick just so H.A. Goodman creams his pants
He was such a threat to "moderate" dems that they picked Biden in a panic
I think the keyword here is "had". He had a big following but not bigger than the Democrat Establishment voters. Switching this late in the game will piss off plenty of voters on their side. Not to mention DNC insiders who absolutely chafe at sharing power with the far left upstarts.

At almost 80 and with a heart issue?
I'm not so sure about this?

Mondale/Ferraro all over again
Won’t happen.
People severely punish the old switcheroo in politics. Look at ‘72.
It’s Biden Kamala
What happened in ‘72?
McGovern switched out his VP during the general.
Result: Nixon 49 states, McGovern 1 state.
The 72 switcheroo, duh
Actually I need to go look it up I just through that was funny 'cuz it rhymes.

Forward Together -- Biden's Campaign Edition
I love how our memes become reality.
Good take.
They do this trick every year.
Dem falls in polls before convention.
After convention, huge reversal in polls. People don't hate the Dems anymore!
Also, Trump rises in polls before convention. Returns those gains after convention. PeoPLe diDNt LiKe iT.
It's all fake.
Joe could have taken a big shit, plucked it from the toilet, held it aloft for the cameras and said "This is my running mate" and his numbers would have been better.
70 some days until the election, there's time for this to actually happen!
