I guess loyalty to the racism factory party supersedes loving your literal wife and kids, huh?

    Ro Khanna, AOC, and Chris Murphy would deny my children jobs and opportunities because of they have the wrong skin color

    Is he saying they are racist against Indians or that he considers his children white?

      I think he’s talking about affirmative action, which would apply in either case, but given that he is choosing to talk about affirmative action it seems to be because of their Indian heritage since that’s one of the most go-to grievances you hear from Indian-American reactionaries in mainstream Discourse, whereas if it was because the kids were white, then you’d sooner expect Vance say the Democrats “indoctrinate my kids at school that they are evil because they are white” or some shit.

          Yeah, that’s why the aforementioned reactionaries complain about it, because it does actually disadvantage Indian applicants (among others). It usually ends up just sidestepping the issue of racial justice for people who don’t look like the speaker, though.

          This is the majority of the desirable public schools in New York City for one. Schools like Stuyvesant and Bronx Science are entirely test based admissions, and as a result something like 75%+ of the student body is Asian.

    Does the vice-president of America think his kids are going to have a hard time getting jobs

    flashback to when Joe Biden was vice-president and Hunter was given a seat at a Ukrainian energy company and a Chinese diplomat gave him an emerald or something. Like I know JD Vance is a craven idiot who simply says what will enable his career but this is pushing things isn’t it

        I think they met at Yale (she was enrolled in their law school), she’s not some poor mail-order bride being forced by social violence into marital servitude like some of these guys keep as hostages. At least, that’s my understanding of it.

    wife and kids are decorations and decorations only. they are there to help him accomplish a look. now that he has figured out they aren’t the look he is after he allows others to demean them.

    I realize that she is just as bad as he is, as her background shows but still, a divorce and a custody agreement is a great start. Those kids are still young enough to have whatever negative shit they’ve picked up to be relearned. They really are innocent here.
