    Pretty much yeah xD. For Obama to blame one person (Bush), and the same to be said right back at Obama. It really shows there's a lot of fingerpointing both ways. lol I've done that before too. Typing Pokemon or Pikachu without thinking lol. Either way it's something that will probably never be fixed sadly. Banning together as human beings to better not only each other, but the world. There's a LOT of work to fix this planet, but no one seems too interested in that, that could benefit anyone. It's quite sad actually

    It is. The saddest thing to me is that humans only focus on humans. Never animals. In many regards. It really infuriates me because every element of planet degradation is caused by human actions. We should at least owe it to the animals to care about them, but instead we overbreed them, murder them, destroy their habitats, and treat them like dirt. Of course there are exceptions, but nearly every human is obsessed with human health, and not other animals.

    Well Trump won. Congrats America, now we get to go back to the 1920's and go BACKWARDS, not forwards. Way to go voters!

    Can't wait to see this end miserably so everyone who voted for him will regret it.

    [pessimistic rant]
    I'll be honest with myself really. When has our country truly been on our feet for the last 2 decades? So many talk about Clinton this, Bush that, Obama this, Trump that, that nobody actually considers how the more we advertise and bash one another the further in debt we go and the worse our country ends up. Politics won't stop police shootings. Politics tried to stop racism and it's still running around (though nowadays more passive aggressively). Politics tries to fix economics and in the process our debt just gets higher, our rich get richer, and our poor get poorer. Far as I'm concerned, no matter who happens to be sitting in the oval office, there'll always be controversy and our country just gets dragged closer and closer to hell.

    And that's the sad truth. Racism didn't spark because of a certain candidate. It's always been there. Just as with police shootings. It happens and those won't stop because of a choice or some politician. There's too much for just ONE person to fix it all. it'll take a country UNITED to work together and fix problems.

    Best way to stop and forever kill racism?

    Get people to stop talking about it. Stop distinguishing between races. Put an end to giving people labels and designations. That in turn will put an end to making one race feel more or less privileged than another. If people want to be treated as one, they have to identify and associate as one. What race are you? Human. Case closed.

    It wouldn't be easy and it does mean giving up a lot of things. It would mean giving up things like a Hispanic Heritage Club or Black History Month. The whole collective label organization like "Black," "Hispanic," "Asian," and so on would have to be gone. But as long as these labels and distinguishing organizations/traits exist, so will the opinions and reactions of those included or excluded from these groups. The less we emphasize these things, the more we associate togetherness and the more we identify as one.

    But you're right, it's impossible for just one person to fix it. It takes everyone. It takes the whole world.

    Eventually everyone will interbreed so much that there won't be races anymore. Just give it another 100,000 years. XD

    Well, there's plenty of marine life more intelligent than us. Orcas, for example, who are more emotionally intelligent (yet we stick them in cages for our amusement because we're messed up).
