When your favorite billionaire defender turns out to be a bad person, simply call other people racist. Great argument.

Yeah, noone can say if you're racist or not just from this. You do have some sort of hate-boner for Obama though. I don't know what he did to personally hurt you, but I hope you eventually heal from it.

I don't think America has had a morally good president in a very long time. Since sometime before Regan. I enjoyed the sense of stability that Obama brought to the people and nation. I view him as doing a decent job overall and if we want to point fingers, the Senate is who really failed the American people that cycle; Mitch McConnell in particular.

Obama did little to hurt me personally. He hurt a lot of other people.

Some people have a thing called empathy.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 days ago

Oh, look. A personal attack without contributing more to the discussion. The exact thing you complained about happening to you. Wooooooow

Empathy =/= White-Knight anger. You're only demonstrating the latter, not that you necessarily lack the former.
