Susan Collins always polls behind a democrat at this point in an election cycle, I wouldn’t read too much into that democrat being graham platner.

Not a lot of non-European Latinos in power in Latin America either.

Latinos are pretty likely to just be tan white people in another generation or two, they’re already assimilating and they want to be white.

Gay sex is different from straight sex, so it’s not a double standard at all- just bad values.

Yes, if the west decided to sanction Israël then it would go under- and the Palestinians would behead everyone who didn’t manage to flee in time. But if the US merely decided it was no longer selling Israël weapons on relatively favorable terms, Israël would buy the arms needed from France or Russia and take over the suez.

Leftists do passionately oppose pedophilia- often defined in nonstandard ways, but still.

Thats not thé typical failure mode of Republican nominations; Ken Paxton for all his many baggages is not actually that extreme a candidate for Texas republicans.

That's a new one. I've heard '7/11 or Casino' though.

Given that these are literal homeless people, there would probably be an unacceptable rate of voting for republicans because of some combination of 'I just want to fill it out for my $10'/literally not understanding how to vote straight D/'Screw you for telling me what to do'/etc.
I don't believe the theory, mind(notably, homeless shelters are mostly a Christian project in the US, and not particularly likely to do shady stuff on behalf of democrats). But the idea that the homeless would vote monolithically D anyways is not an argument.

?? Everyone just calls indians, pakistanis, bangladeshis, etc 'indian indians' or 'dot indians' or 'east indians', and native americans 'native americans' or 'american indians' or 'feather indians' if there's a need to disambiguate.

X to doubt. Homeless shelters are mostly run by religious Christians, not lefty NGO's.

Stacy Abrams will go down in history as a writer of adequate love poetry and brutal dictator, clearly.

The Dutch cracked terraforming centuries ago, and if there was a market to support it, it would not be a lost art.

Texas separatism is Not Thé Point of The Texas Independence Movement; thé point is being a central rallying point to keep different far right groups from openly opposing each other.

Is this why the French hated it, despite the Germans voting for it?

I’ve met plenty of Asians that were just kinda… normal. Granted they were all Vietnamese. But still. Likewise plenty of super white acting blacks, and liberals are basically white people acting like orientals.

People should live in their own communities. I remember reading an article about a tradcath community, and presumably the article wanted to criticise and mock them, but I thought they had decent values and the world is better with them
Well yes, our impeccable aesthetics make it hard to be wholly condemnatory.

Imagine the public reaction to a bunch of Muslim maybe-terrorist maybe-pedophile 19 year old boys running a daycare as the condition of asylum.

There is no time when everyone learned classical languages in school- because most people didn't go to school.

In Texas, kindergarten is five to six. Pre-k is four to five and officially optional(technically, so is kindergarten- but there isn't quite as strong a norm of going to Pre-k as there is kindergarten). After that grades count 1-12 in ascending order.

the non-gender-binary-normative young human animals
This is Texas. The teachers may not be particularly based, but the elected officials setting curriculum standards do not believe in 'non-binary', and might think this is some kind of new computer technology, and if I had to guess a majority of the state board of ed would vote in favor of sodomy laws if they thought they could get away with it.

It seems more like a list put together by a committee with a few busybodies each pushing their own favorites and no clear criteria for what to include.
It was set by the Texas state board of education, which is elected in partisan elections with a voter turnout that rounds down to zero.
They’re already majority euro by ancestry, and are intermarrying at high rates- it’s unlikely that ‘Mexican Americans’ will be genetically distinctive in 100 years.
