Here's the YouTube clip. I watched this the other day and immediately thought of Quack and billsfuk.c in addition to a few others in my personal life. 

 

Off the deep end delusional TDS. They absolutely need mental health intervention asap.

What may be the oldest, extensive, detailed data we have on this topic comes from the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) in the 1940s. It found:

Share this articleNo subscription required to readShare

47 percent of Americans said restaurants shouldn’t serve both White and Black customers (surveys back then generally used the word “*****” instead of “Black”).

46 percent wouldn’t like being treated by a Black nurse.

51 percent said White people should get the first shot at a job over a Black person.

Some other key findings around this period:

63 percent said White and Black troops should be separated (Gallup, 1948).

A majority supported school segregation in the South (Life magazine, 1950).

71 percent said Black people were less intelligent, and nearly half both agreed with that and said it was because they were born that way (Fortune magazine, 1939).

While 94 percent disapproved of how the Nazis treated Jewish people, nearly two-thirds said the persecution of Jews in Europe was entirely (11 percent) or partly (54 percent) the Jewish people’s own fault (Gallup, 1938).

Just 39 percent said Jewish people should be treated the same as all Americans; the rest preferred statements cautioning against Jews intermingling with others (11 percent), wanting to prevent Jews from gaining too much power in the business world (32 percent), or wanting to deport them to a “new homeland” (10 percent) (Fortune, 1939).

Americans were about evenly split on whether Jewish people “have too much power and influence in this country” (Office of Public Opinion Research, 1942).

Polling on these subjects really picked up in the 1960s, amid the rise of the civil rights movement. A 1965 Harris Poll found that, while few Americans would object to working with or sitting next to a Black person:

37 percent would object to having a Black family live next door.

85 percent would object to a friend or relative marrying a Black person.

92 percent would object to their teenage daughter dating a Black person.

41 percent agreed that Black people had less “native intelligence.”

58 percent agreed that Black people had less ambition.

Around the same time, a 1968 NORC poll asked similar questions, breaking out how non-Black respondents felt. It found:

Most blamed Black people’s failure to achieve equality more on their lack of initiative (54 percent) than on restrictions imposed by white society (38 percent).

Most agreed that Whites had a right to keep Black people out of their neighborhoods, and that Black people “should respect that right.”

About three-fourths agreed that Black people “shouldn’t push themselves where they’re not wanted.”

This is an incomplete picture, in large part because we don’t have good data on where Americans stood for about two-thirds of our nation’s history. Given the trends and how the country treated Black people, in particular, racism almost surely was significantly more pervasive in the 1800s.

But we’re also talking about findings that aren’t too far in our nation’s past; about half of the numbers you see above reflect the country as it existed when both of our likely 2024 major-party presidential nominees were alive.

"One thought more, I wish you all to lay to heart, practicing yourselves and teach it to your children. It is this: neither we nor any other people will ever be respected until we respect
ourselves, and we will never respect ourselves until we have the means to live respectably. An exceptionally poor and
dependent people will be
despised by the opulent
surroundings, and despise themselves."

It is not surprising to me that you picked one of the few comedians that actually do this for the comedy. They’re not funny at all.

It's not surprising to me that you don't have the capacity to laugh at comedians who don't match your politics.
