You do know I can read what you previously posted, right? This is not a fantasy world where you can just claim that you didn't say something when there is an electronic record of what you wrote. Ironically, that type of denial of reality is prevalent in both Trump and Hillary Clinton.

I quote you:

"You don’t think my rights are valuable."

"You don’t think the changes he made to our refugee and resettlement programs are important. You don’t think it mattered that he encouraged his followers to see other citizens as a threat.

"You don’t see that as damage."

My highlighting of you telling me what I think, that is: you putting words in my fingers.

Again and to end my side of this exchange: You don't know fuck all about what I think or know.

I know, for example, that providing huge tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy has a hugely disproportionate effect on poor people's wages and rights, and in particular poor WOC. Why? Because with every huge increase in wealth since Reagan cut the top marginal tax rate in the 80s, the ultra wealthy have used their extra cash to corrupt the political system more - Democrats and Republicans.

I'm concerned with solving the root problem, money in politics and wealth inequality, because historically in the US and as seen around the world outside the US, solving those two root problems leads directly to solving problems like abortion, social services, gun laws, environmental laws, civil rights laws, etc.

Bye now.
