The more things change... they really do just stay the same. I'm twenty years past my youthful days of being idealistic and naive about the world. Though I'm probably still idealistic, my naivety has been tempered into cynicism and reality by years of life' interactions with our fellow man.
I'm at a loss the more I read about how fucking moronic the non-white voters are, but I have to attempt to constrain those initial thoughts with the premise of "what I know others may not and vise-versa".
Though my interaction with others should solidify that though on more ways than one. I don't claim any prodigy like abilities unless self deprecation is something to be lauded. I suffer from depression and I use the term suffer to only highlight the fact of what a shit it has been this past week, but that's not the topic I want to discuss.
I could qualify as a American with Latin origins. My father having been born in El Paso, Tx from which our roots stem from Chihuahua Mx. Supposedly our roots trace all the way to Basque origins in Spain.
I don't speak Spanish so for all intents and purposes I have always identified as white, be what it may.
I grew up in Southern California. I went to suburban schools with mostly white kids, granted my location in Huntington Beach has a small influence of Asians, hispanics, etc...
School was not something I excelled at but wasn't something that I failed miserably at either. As most of my teachers would pen on my report cards, "Has potential", I did manage to score straight A's one semester as a personal challenge, but my "do things my own way" attitude made sure that only happened once. School for me in my mid teens was about "why am I here", despite the somewhat existential tone, it was primarily reflecting on why be in school. I knew school was needed but I always have fought against the powers that be or the establishment if you will.
So when I first heard of Bernie Sanders running for President I was beyond excited after reading about his proposals and how he wanted to make the changes to this country that are sorely needed.
Though as I continue to read about minorities continue to vote for the cunt I'm flabbergasted at the level of stupidity that is rampant within those demographics.
That's where I'm at a loss... and I just have to rack it up to a level of moronic stupidity that just rings true to the idiom on how dumb Americans truly are.
