    You are just playing a racist game. The same one that got played with KBJ and Barrack Obama.

    Reverse racism is a troupe started by an avowed white nationalists/Nazis. The very same people that started the anti-crt BS that ended up lumping all discussion of civil rights into a “actually, this is racist because it makes white people feel bad”.

    It is not racist to prioritize well qualified underrepresented minorities over overrepresented majorities. It’s not racist to do that explicitly. The undertone of your comment is she must not be well qualified, yet all you want to do is talk about her race and not the qualifications I listed.

    She is well qualified. So the only reason you are objecting is because she’s black. That is racist.

    If you are really concerned about racism, perhaps focus on Tommy tuberville’s defense of white nationalists and fight to make the military whiter. Not the appointment of a well qualified black senator.

    You’re game is transparent fascist.

      You are putting words in my mouth and then knocking your own words down like it means something.

      Why not try actually arguing against what I said, instead setting up strawmen and then engaging in name-calling?

      I could not care less what skin color she has.

      I care that for political gain Newsom singled out her sex and skin color like they were the most defining factors about her.

      I care because some people buy into it so thoroughly that they think someone pointing it out makes them a fascist.

        Yet that’s the only issue you’ve commented on.

        You think it’s racist to prioritize minority appointments, only racists think that.

        It’s only a problem if she’s unqualified. Yet you want to only focus on white victimhood narratives put up by avowed white nationalists.

        You’re a racist.

          More strawmen, more name-calling.

          Just find a mirror, then the conversation will be the same as the one in your head.
