The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yeah, words matter.

Paternalistic White Liberals call the Vice President 'Kamala' when rarely did we refer to Bush, Cheney, Gore n as George, Dick, or Al. Paternalistic White Liberals did the same thing with SCOTUS - calling her "Ketanji" instead of by her last name. Alito. Roberts. They all got surname treatment. Paternalistic White Liberals see *certain* people as playthings.

Tonight John King as usual on CNN doing a fair good job. On the map he shows the current Harris/Trump returns, and contrasts it with 2020 numbers for Biden. BUT *EVERY* time he points to a Biden number- then he goes to Harris he only calls Harris "her". "2% more for her" "she's doing better" - - never "Harris".

If you are in that 10% of Liberals that *actually* give a shit- think about that for a moment.
