For all extensive purposes, every time Trump brought up THE WALL he may have just as well waved a conferderate flag. It was 100% symbolizem from day one. He used it as a totem to galvanize a portion of white America who are pissed off that they are becomming less and less of a majority voice in the country.

So you know for a fact that it only appealed to racist America and the people that think illegal immigration is an economic burden didn't support it?

Putting racism aside for a bit....wouldn't whatever race happens to be the majority in a given state or even the whole U.S. eventually become racist or nationalistic toward anyone but themselves? White, Black, Latino, etc. That's been true of most cultures throughout the world anyway.

You don't have to deal with this **** if you study physics

Coming from the dude that just dismisses the other people as racist rather than having a constructive conversation most the time.

Either way, study harder.

Did Trump talk about economic burdens? No. He talked about drugs, rapists, criminals, and "bad hombres". He wasn't talking about economic issues during his rallies, he was talking about fear and bias. The wall was a symbol from day one, not an actual solution to anything. Again, a totem.

Seriously, I'm pretty confident you're not an idiot, but the way you have conducted yourself in this thread really makes it seem like you're just here to stir the pot. Multiple people have pointed this out, you're quickly becoming "that guy".

Social evolution isn't impossible. Creating excuses to tolerate it ins't great either.

Who? Me or him? With me? Yeah, kinda. I get annoyed when people don't use facts and would rather just call **** racist or condescend or you seen the ****. So I challenge them. I haven't seen anybody call me out on it though.

The US is a melting pot though. When you talk about race are you talking about simply skin color? 95% of this country doesn't have roots on US soil that date back more than a few generations. So what race are you talking about?

No? I think every generation has become increasingly accepting and less racist.

I like how you put racism aside and then addressed another topic about racism though
