I've already said before that a white person stops being a liberal if at any point they are caught in 4K craving traditional racial hierarchy & dynastic white privilege while navigating highly integrated liberal or Democratic Party spaces. If you want that, then be a Republican.
@Needle_of_Arya While that does include a broad racial mix of people, it also creates a high barrier of entry with limited open spots and essentially creates an over class and an underclass, and minorities would fall mostly into the latter.

78 nations have already figured out universal healthcare. What prevents the United States, the wealthiest nation in the world, from figuring it out?

And as we saw with Solomon Northup, even if you are a free Black person, White people could rip up your papers, lie, and take away your freedom

white conservative medical professionals were already horrible people before Covid came along and exposed them as ironically not even believing in science; before 2020 they were already on the hook for blatant classism, racism, misogyny & internalized misogyny

Conservative men are frightened and weak. And they want everyone to be as frightened and weak as they are. Their weakness shows every time they try to impress their imaginary strength on us. They hate and try to oppress woman and people of color is because of fear. We all see it.
