Serious computer/internet problems here…not avoiding this thread…well too much any way 🙂 The alt-right calls itself the alt-right. They labeled themselves with the term, and carry it proudly. Alt-left is what those on the right have decided to label those with whom they disagree politically. You seem to be equating them, as if both terms are equally applicable to relevant groups. That is an incorrect assessment. I cannot tell if your comment about trump pissing off the KKK was meant in jest or not, but either way, it was irrelevant. ---

Obama did precisely dick-all to push far left objectives, due to him not being a far left guy. (If you think the ACA was far left you’ve been poorly informed.) Trump panders to the KKK because he’s a racist fuck who agrees with them on things. That’s a personal problem he has. ---

> [@iiandyiiii](#): > > Huh. **Clothahump** , can you clear this up? Do you believe that “wetback”, the word in question, “is applied correctly to anyone who swims the Rio Grande and illegally enters the USA, regardless of country of origin, and as such is not an ethnic slur”? That was the original usage and is still the most common. I’ve heard the term being applied generically to anyone who illegally enters the country by any means, but that doesn’t make a lot of sense. And no, it is not an ethnic slur. There’s no indication of the skin color or point of origin of the person performing the illegal entry. ---

> [@DLuxN8R-13](#): > > Need I even mention the Bible babbling anti-abortion movement – a straight up attempt to punish sexually active women with pregnancy? Um, sexual activity doesn’t necessarily lead to pregnancy. For the last fifty or so years, we’ve had access to efficient contraception. I - and my various partners - were quite sexually active for more than a decade (the expression “…like rabbits” springs to mind), and no babby was formed before we intended to.

There’s no indication of the skin color or point of origin of the person performing the illegal entry. You are the only racist dumbass on this entire board that agrees with this racist notion. WTF is wrong with you? :smack: OK, it may not be by some weird definition an “ethnic slur”, but it’s racist as fuck. ---

There’s no indication of the skin color or point of origin of the person performing the illegal entry. Then it sounds like you were honestly answering my question to the best of your ability (with an answer that I still strongly disagree with). If so, then it’s even stranger that you came back and claimed that this was a “calculated response” that was intended to “light [me] up”, which ended up getting you suspended for trolling. ---
