People in both parties have been doing this for years. It's a standard way to try make sure the candidate on the other side that you perceive to be "beatable" becomes their nominee. So people look at polls that say McCain has a better chance of beating Clinton than Obama and then they go vote on the opposite side's primaries.

There may be people in the country who don't want a black president but they're not voting for Hillary to keep it from happening. They're sitting in a double-wide, making meth in their bathtub, and fucking their cousin.
Gotcha. Thanks. Thanks a lot. I am now a changed man and will never again think that this country has any racist assholes in it that make over $30,000 a year and actually wear a clean shirt to work.

Wow. I guess years of looking at all those white people in corporate America was a fucking optical illusion. Hell, I'm looking at a bunch right now!
So "white" = "racist"?

Also, in defense of thelike5 here, racism is very much alive and well in America
Speaking generally across the board, if you honestly can't see it, I don't think I'm going out on a limb by saying you're either REALLY optimistic and naive, or you're a fucking racist yourself and you should at least admit it to yourself. I know I'm looking at it from a pretty black/white perspective (pun :) ), but racism is so obvious and apparent in most parts of this country that it's almost like saying you can't see the sun in the sky.

The overwhelming majority of us, regardless of race, have been pitted against "the other colors" since childhood. Notice how children are not racists until they are taught to be. It is passed up, down and all around through previous, current and to the future generations through an equal amount of family, friends, and propaganda.

I may be naïve but I'm not a racist. Unless you would consider hating the human race to be racism.

I'm a nihilist so I'm voting for the next asteroid large enough to cause a mass extinction. And why? Because of racists. Because of terrorists. Etc., etc. But mostly because most people are either too afraid or not afraid enough of one or the other. There's no balance, we aren't capable of it and I think that trying to save the human race from itself has to be just about the worst idea ever.

Any conversation that starts off with I'm an anarchist or I'm a nihilist has to be A.) either the biggest cop out attitude I've ever heard or B.) penned by a 16 year old in his mothers basement. I'm hoping you fall in the latter category.

If you hate society so much and want to see the proverbial asteroid hit the planet then why not just kill yourself? It's better for the rest of us that way.

Just put your expensive replacements-for-human-beings jerk off machines to me in yer will... ok? Please?

Danke.

I knew once I eventually got around to posting about politics/philosophy around here that I could get that response.

I've often wondered if there's anything the Abes would censor on this board.

Simple. Because if there ever could be a real way to make the human race extinct I would be taking myself out of the running for finding it. I can't trust you fucks to drink the laced Kool-Aid right after me can I?

Again, if you ever decide to kill yourself please just address those damn expensive robots to me in your will. That's all now. So go and do like a good nihilst does.. whatever that is...
