They went to college and work great jobs and are in loving and amazing relationships. They have an immense amount of gratitude for what they have and what their parents have sacrificed. They know how to win and lose and what first and second place mean. What they don't like is a government that doesn't represent their age range between 20 and 30. They don't like their reproductive rights taken away, guns out of control, the lack of affordable healthcare that isn't tied to a job (no one stays at a job anymore, this is the gig economy), and obstructionist politicians. Most of them, and I agree, want to see congressional term limits and a third party that represents their beliefs That's not entitlement, that's just common sense. You still haven't shown me any examples of liberal failure. If I'm correct Conservatives are also part of the trophy culture. I saw many religious Conservatives handing out trophies to everyone. And I've seen many religious Conservatives who think they're entitled to be ugly, exclusive and assholes all in the name of God. Do you consider that Conservative failure?

So if you wanna believe stupidy, God will help you believe those LIES in the hopes, that those delusions will open up your eyes to how stupid and anti God it is eventually. cause if you in the middle, according to God, is worse than being on the EVIL side. He does that so you pick a side so you are not wishy washy in hopes that if you can't choose one side, so that when you hear something profound, youll switch to the theirs. As oppose to the wishy washy side that hears the truth but since they flip flop, it goes in one ear, out the other. because of that, when they hear the truth, they dont care cause they think it doesnt apply to them, cause you know, they on both sides so they think it doesn't apply to them. The lleft is full of HATE, I know that for sure and this is the new American rebel. but they dont realize what they are doing to our great country!

      I had just about every race you could make in my social circle, whether they were directly around me or in one of the satellite groups, and it never occurred to me that any of them were somehow different from me, outside of appearances and maybe preferences.
      That social circle ended up being a refuge for those who didn't really fit into any other groups on account of the only rule we really had was, "Don't cause trouble for anyone else."

    They asked me if I thought they should adopt conservatism as I mostly am. I told them no. They were confused by my answer and asked why. I said " I won't demand orask anything of you except for one thing. Inform yourself and be honest. And after that if we still find ourselves on different sides of a subject or argument, that's perfectly alright. Just as long as we both know we are being honest and informed in our beliefs"

    Hey Van! As usual, you are doing a great job at integrating what Mr. Steele is saying with what you are dealing with in your own experience. As a white guy in America today, I can't help but be a little embarrassed by the way white liberals are behaving. As angry as it makes you, it's even worse for me because, the tendency today is to paint with a broad brush, and the thought of being lumped in with that stupidity really pisses me off. When white liberals attack you for not being " black enough" is just their way of attempting to convince, or even bully you into thinking that you can't succeed with out them. It's all about the power that they are desperate to hold on to. Much love for you and what you are doing. Keep it up.

    I just had a discussion with someone that considers themselves very liberal.
    I was in utter shock listening to everything being thought of as racist. Almost all of the way they saw society was based on someone's country of origin or skin color. The interesting thing as I was speaking against it, I couldn't understand how they said all these things. Freakishly I'm considered the racist for not understanding how the people from this country are this and people of this color are that.
    When someone says diversity, I'll challenge someone with diversity of what? Usually I'll challenge it to think in diversity of thought.
    In my thought is all my friends that were hurt growing up, a lot of it being black "culture". What they failed to see was it wasn't the culture, they grew up with that living room with the plastic covered furniture. A house of order, with two parents and all the opportunity of this. Then they started getting into the music, calling girls hoes, making babies and not taking care of them. And not holding themselves accountable and blaming others. I saw their own power striped from them, it went against all the family values they grew up with. I've always had my friends in my interest, even if they can't really talk to me I want them to be able to take back the power of their thought and values.
    Thank you for putting out these videos, I can't imagine the backlash you get. This little screen doesn't let me type out my thoughts well, but I really commented you on helping get out a message of one love.

      Hey man, so I read your statement fairly carefully, and I thought you might find this interesting.
      You said they got into the music, the mannerisms, the speech patterns, the self-absorption and rejection of responsibility. Notably, all of these things WERE the culture. Not the culture of their home, but of the people they identified as their tribe.
      The hood life called to them, and identity politics played a role in that.
      Haha, anyway, culture is more pervasive than some may think it is, and there are usually conflicting cultures that win and lose people's hearts and minds all the time.

    Misery loves company, and some folks aren't really your friends, they just don't want to be alone in their misery, and prioritize keeping you miserable so they aren't alone over supporting you. *_It's a sad moment when you realize that some of your friends are only just drinking buddies_*
    This happens all the time - someone goes to rehab and they have to leave their old friends behind - but it's better to think of it as *_making room for newer, better friends_*
    *Summarizing what Peterson says about TRUE friends:*
    _Here's how you know who's a TRUE friend: You can tell them BAD news, and they'll try to help, and you can tell them GOOD news and they'll help you celebrate. _*_You want to surround yourself with people who want the BEST, for the BEST part of you_*
    It's easy to get frustrated and bothered by those who AREN'T true friends, but if they are resentful and bitter and are suffering inside, then not much can be done other than to pray they decide to take that first step. *_Not all prisons have walls_* and it's useful to remember that we all have that dilemma inside of us. *_You always have a little bit of CAIN in your heart no matter how ABEL you are_*
    *There's an old Cherokee story that has a similar message as Cain and Abel that I really like that goes:*
    _An old Cherokee Chief was teaching his grandson about life and said, "A fight rages inside you," he told the young boy, "a fight between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, arrogance, envy, resentment, and greed. The other is good - he is love, joy, humility, generosity, and kindness"._
    _The grandson got curious and asked, "Which one will win?"_
    _The Chief smiled and replied, "Whichever one you feed"_

It’ll give you a new perspective on a lot of things regardless of your politics. All I know after learning about all of this and paying attention is that, at the end of the day, we’re all in this together. Ignore the racial stuff, the narratives, and all the junk. I’m mixed so my family and friends were all actually diverse. I’ve known enough people in my life to know that 99.9999% of people are good to you if youre good to them. Race, religion, all of that, it didn’t change anything. We didn’t all agree and we’d talk about it and pick each other’s brains. It ended with “okay, that’s an interesting point of view. Not my thing, but more power yo ya.” Then we’d go do something fun together. I also grew up poor. I’ve had friends of many different financial statuses, and we were all still equal. I’m not poor anymore. I’ve been homeless. I’ve experienced a lot. Point being, yeah the world is a tough place, but there aren’t as many bad people as they blast on TV and social media.

    So my family came to the US in the 1890's from eastern Europe. The progressives at that time thought my family was from what they called the "remnants of a failed civilization" and didn't want us admitted to the country. We worked our way up. I wish for everyone willing to work what my family always toasted at our Sunday dinner, I lift my glass and wish you "health, wealth and happiness"! Good luck and God bless.

    I had decided as a kid whom was raised in a really rough childhood. When I was in the military my friends came from all over the world and I spent my time around winners. I get to choose my family. I get to choose my friends. Just because someone is blood does not make them family. I choose whom to associate myself with people that bring positive vibes to my life. If someone does not I don’t have to have them around. I’m a happier person and have more growth and development when I remind myself of this. That does not mean I have to be rude or hurtful. I just limit the time I spend with them. I see my mom 1-2 hr a year because she is toxic. I’m not mean to her. I’m always loving and respectful I just choose to spend my time with positive people.

    You're doing an unmeasurable form of service that will help to effect the future of black children as well as children and adults of all ethnic backgrounds by showing them that what makes this country special is that it has the same expectations of all it's citizens and it's not the color of our skin that makes us special in the United States it's the content of our character and what we each offer to society progressing us all forward as one nation under God.

    "Sanctuary City refers to municipal jurisdictions, typically in North America, that limit their cooperation with the national government's effort to enforce immigration law." I checked a short way down in the comments and didn't find a definition for sanctuary city so I included this one from Wikipedia. In effect these cities will not report illegal aliens to ICE even if they are in police custody for any crime. . . any crime no matter how violent, because they have decided that federal law does not apply to them. Just search with your browser "Illegal Alien who murdered a woman in California" There is quite a list. California seems to be the state with the most notorious illegal immigrant non-compliance with Federal laws that lead to involvement in murder and assault crimes. The more notorious is Kate Steinle. Her killer was convicted of a weapon's charge and had been deported at least 5 times previous to Ms Steinle's death. If you read some of the articles, you will see what happens when arrogant states decide they don't see the need for the protections of vetting immigrants that wish to break our laws and jump the line to enter under the radar. As Thomas Jefferson stated an educated electorate is the foundation of democracy.

    Keep in mind that the death rate would be much higher if Chicago E.R. doctors weren't so good at treating gun shot wounds. 4,000 people shot, and only 867 killed? So the murder rate is actually understated. As we can see here, multiply the deaths by 4 or 5. That's how many people got got.

  • @joywright8794

    BTW I transitioned from Liberal Democrat to a fiscal conservative/social moderate. I began the drift by paying attention to political platforms and track records. When the congress ( House and Senate) passes bills into laws, you can go to the government sites and find the bills that are passed and check to see what the bill says and then check how your Representative voted or abstained and the same in the Senate. I became an Independent voter. My husband followed suit after he saw the results of my research. I found that many of my friends were not very tolerant of my independent ways. Over the years the number of candidates who matched my conservative/ moderate combo and ended up after the wild and crazy started with the Democrats, I ended up voting for more and more republicans and some Independents (if they looked electable) over the years I have voted for the candidate who was the least repulsive. I agree that doing a score card for who does what they promise is a smart idea. I may get fooled by an empty suit occasionally, but it only happens once. If you want help figuring out how to find the information you care about, let me suggest that you visit your public library and talk to a Reference Librarian. They are there to provide you with access to information. Rather than take anyone else's word, no matter how thorough they are, it is best to corroborate documentation with your own eye from an original document from an authoritative source. I also check the candidates website and call their campaign office to get clarification. Sorry for rambling, but I get excited about this subject. As a retired librarian, I can't tell you how thrilling it was to provide patrons with access to resources that would allow them to pursue their journeys toward finding the candidate who fits their view of a better life.

"Oh no, I'll protest for you!" "I'll demand what I think you should have" "They will only listen to me, you just sit there and let me do all the work, you need me to do it, without me, you'll be oppressed, thank god I'm here to make sure you're ok". In other words they're saying black ppl aren't capable of succeeding without THEM.
