The Democratic Party has failed White America

...Especially rural White America where many are stupid and uneducated, many are inbred, most are well armed and most are unhappy.

Instead of reaching out to these people to help solve their problems, over the past 2 decades we have resorted to ostracizing them, mocking them, marginalizing them, etc.

This has left them extremely vulnerable and ripe for manipulation by Neo-Nazis groups, Fringe mormon sects, the GOP and even foreign Governments such as Russia because of this, we are now seeing attacks on law enforcement, US Government officials and others like never before.

Something is seriously wrong when people are so unhappy with their lives that they would rather pick up guns and take over a remote federal facility in Oregon when they could pick up a book and read it to their children.

The reason is because they're poor, they're uneducated, they are unskilled, they have little to no income so the only thing they have left are guns and a bizarre belief in non-existent man in the sky.

When you have nothing, you feel like nothing and you're constantly trying to become something unfortunately the only way they feel that they can make their miserable lives worthwhile is by committing attacks. We see this very thing happening in a certain region of the middle east.

I'm sorry but Global Warming awareness, Gay Marriage and Abortion rights isn't going to make this problem go away and although these is very important issues, they are not an end all solution.

Our own hubris, smugness and arrogance towards these people have led to the rise of thugs like George W. Bush, Sarah Palin and Donald Trump.

Instead of screaming "RACIST!", "NAZI!", "TEA BAGGER!" etc maybe we should be asking why Jim Bob and Sandy Anderson and Bucktooth Billy are so unhappy with their lives. What are their finances like? Are they barely living paycheck to paycheck? Can they afford rent? Can they afford to pay for healthcare for their disabled baby that was a product of incest? Have they lost a job recently due to a factory closing?

I bet if we sat down and had a real conversation with these people we'd find out a lot. If we continue on the path of ostracizing them, we will all lose in more ways than one.

We cannot and we should not fail these people.

1. The Democratic Party has failed America FIFY

2. Why do I suspect this character is so out of touch with rural America that his knowledge of rural people is derived from produce displays at Whole Paycheck and Monsanto-Is-The-Bogeyman conspiracy-theory websites. He probably doesn't even know where the nearest farmer's market is.

3. Would your previous sentence be a prime example, oh condescending and elitist one?

4. You're looking in the wrong direction, predictably. Try looking in the direction of your own peeps, the Occupooers and BLM-race-baiters; while you're at it, look again at all DU cheering over shootings of police officers ... you might even find yourself in that cheer squad!

What a hypocritical, condescending, and elitist jackass!

Even if they were stupid, uneducated, and inbred they would still know better than to look for help from the real idiots like 951-Riverside at democrat underground.

951 is the area code for the city of Riverside in Southern California.  The place is mostly white, kind of an armpit of a city.  Big city, but some of it's rural, and desert, smoggy too.  It's pretty much blue collar. I can imagine this guy as some early 20's ahole of a kid whose probably talking about his family and neighbors who he hates because instead of getting into guns and blue collar work, he went to college and got his nob pierced.......

The whole thing feels like he's projecting his own garbage onto who he calls "rural white America."  He needs a hug from his daddy.

Given the marginal (putting it kindly) coherence of this paragraph, maybe this denizen of the Inland Empire should look for incestuous convergences in his own family tree's roots. Or at the least, his/her sobriety when composing that post was dubious.

Does (s)he realize rural people are more likely to receive payments for crops, livestock, or timber they've sold than bi-weekly or weekly paychecks? That they're more likely to own their land than be renters? That they've probably never worked at a factory so as to be laid off ... because they don't live in the cities where the factories are located?

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

I'm still trying to figure out what, other than the Marxist takeover of the Federal Government, we're supposed to be unhappy about?

That we don't group ourselves in urban sewers?

Happiest day of my life was watching Chicagoland recede in the rearview for the last time.

Thank. God. 

If you retards are the shining example of educated, ( :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: )  nah.......  You're half-witted, genderless drones looking for your next big score of fReEsHit!111!!1eLebIntY!  Your reading and writing skills are, in rare cases, barely that of the average high school student, 30 years ago.  8th graders, from the turn of the Twentieth Century, were towering giants compared to you helpless twinks.

That'll teach 951-R what happens to those who think rather than lock-step toeing the party line! Speculating - and maybe projecting more than a bit - I'm guessing 951-R recognized Tsaritsa CHILL's corruptness and/or incompetence, and that The Bern would prove disastrous. IOW,given the current field, 951-R saw Trump as the least awful in the field of those with a chance of winning. Or maybe he posted a scarcasm that was construed literally.

But, yes! Comrade CHILL thanks you for your vigilance, EarlG!

From the thread that caused the ax to fall, here's the OP:

Quote
Stinky The Clown (53,600 posts)

Failed Dem Candidate Jim Webb: I won't vote for Clinton, but I may for Trump
     
 http://www.politico.com/story/2016/03/jim-webb-no-hillary-clinton-220255

"I would not vote for Hillary Clinton,” Webb said on MSBNC's "Morning Joe."

When asked whether he'd vote for Trump, Webb said he wasn't closed to the idea. “I'm not sure yet. I don't know who I'm going to vote for,” he said.

He said Clinton would simply continue President Barack Obama’s policies, but that with Trump, things would change — but he's not convinced it would be for the better.

Nice, Jim. Real nice.

You ****ing loser asshole.

Here's 951-Riverside's response to the OP:

Quote
951-Riverside (7,234 posts)

15. I'm with Jim Webb, Trump gets my vote this november
 
I'm tired of America inching over the edge over the past 2 decades, its about time it got a nice shove off the cliff and Trump is the right candidate to make that happen.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027661478

So, yeah, sarcasm that was construed incorrectly.  Take note DUmmies, 951-Riverside was a member for more than 10 years and had over 7000 posts.  The long knives are out.  One step in the wrong direction, real or imagined, is enough reason for the ban hammer to swing.

And it appears that Stinky is the one that put this on the Admin's radar.  First he alerted:

Quote
Stinky The Clown (53,600 posts)

40. On background:
 
AUTOMATED MESSAGE: Results of your alert

Mail Message
On Sat Mar 5, 2016, 09:40 AM you sent an alert on the following post:

I'm with Jim Webb, Trump gets my vote this november
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=7661675

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

YOUR COMMENTS

Poster says, clearly, they will vote for Trump over the Democrats. This is bigger than a hide. This poster needs to be PPRed.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Sat Mar 5, 2016, 09:47 AM, and voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Trump Or HRC - Two Versions Of Fascism
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I googled this poster's other posts, trying to figure out if they worded this badly and meant if Hillary's the nominee they would vote for Trump as a protest. But no. From their posting history, it's clear they don't support either of the democratic nominees - not Bernie or Hillary. (Adding that in, in case this goes to MIRT).
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm guessing the poster forgot the sarcasm thingy
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I infer that the tag is missing.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Post appears to be snark. Benefit of the doubt.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you. 

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027666711#post40

After losing the alert and being advised that the post was probably snark, he must have gone whining to the Admin's.  So, much like Soviet Russia, disappear the unwanted, rewrite the history and go about with your daily life.  Just don't question your betters.  Gotta wonder who else is on Skinner's list.
