Zoom call “White Women” and “White Dudes” for Kamala raises millions. What hypocrites you all are! What next? Trannies and muslims and black dudes for Kamala? Democrats love segregation. Always have. Imagine the media if Donny held a White Dudes for Trump fundraiser? How blind and dumb do you have to be? WTFU!

Keith, there is link to a video in my poem, "Bring the Clowns" which says exactly what you are saying. Many of us think this has gone too far. So, perhaps we can agree on something? You make a fair point. I think you might get a great deal of satisfaction from that video. It took a while to find something like that.

Thanks but no thanks. I have no wish to understand or accept the Leninist/Marxist neo-left zeitgeist. It’s a cancer on western civilisation.

Keith, the very left often popularized and featured in the media and the concept of "woke" are extreme for most of us. For example, the idea that certain topics are not acceptable for discussion on college campuses doesn't sit well with me and many others. Since you fought for this country, I could see how you would be annoyed since we're supposed to be about free expression. There was a very interesting article about the morality of expression by M. Gessen in The New York Times. A quote...:

"Imagine that information is water and some of the water is poisoned. And if you are tasked with conveying the water to the public, it would be a crime for you to convey poisoned water. And I think that political lies, lies in the public sphere, are just as poisonous to our politics as poisoned water is to humans. And if we think of ourselves as conveyors, as mediators, as media, who transport this information, this water, then we have this abiding responsibility to do something about it. We can’t just turn to one of the candidates and say, “I’d like to see you take a sip of that. And see what happens to you.” (so purveying ideas in the media involves some complex principles....but woke is a bit too much for even me).

Banners seem to be the Democrats forte. It's like, "Hey, there's a White guy". I guess White Dudes for Kamala would in include her husband.

Hilda, you make this world less crazy. Who in their right mind would give Ms Diversity Pick a dollar for a blatantly racist stunt? Have a good one!

But Keith, you fail to grasp the entirety of the immense implications within the depths of the mirage-like vision that draws them to an imaginative isle in the midst of a desert of delusion.....Damn..i just heard a knock on the door..

Hi John. The Left are, and do, everything they accuse the Right of and much more. This obsession with identity politics just infuriates me. Pity you were interrupted. Not Zuckerberg at the door trying to buy your vote? I was looking forward to reading the rest of your political poetic postulations. Cheers mate.
