Going there? I would have thought _this_ strip is lampooning the racist
stereotype that all black people must, of necessity, understand and sympathize
with stereotypical black attitudes and cultural phenomena.

I expect that "they" do, given the very great number of
people who will give them an education in the subject,
one way or another. Even if, like Dave, you don't consider
yourself to be Black.

A prejudice of my own is that Black Republicans are all
quite stupid, but I would rather examine than justify it.
For instance, one could retort that all Republicans are
quite stupid, but I expect that there are counter examples.
Someone may remind me.

I know two, and I live in California.

Ergo, your misguided beliefs say far, far more about your bigotry
than they do about Republicans.

And your posts here are an indication of how useful SAT scores are
(not) at measuring intelligence.

Like IQ tests, which measure only the ability to take IQ tests,
SATs measure only the ability to take the SAT.

So are mine (though as a Canadian I'm not a Republican) and even
joined them in the early 80s but discovered I enjoyed being
anti-social with a modem more than socializing with them (might have
been the 1/2 hour drive each way to where they met that did it)

I've got the 1994 Canadian Mensa directory so have no idea whether
that alone (I could tell them from memory my address of nearly 30
years ago without difficulty) so perhaps that would be sufficient to
rejoin - if I were to do so it would need to be since I have no idea
where the original of my GMAT scores has gotten to (done in 1980-81)

From many decades of working with the Democratic party in NC I can say
that that is not true and thinking that is one of the main reasons the
party pretty much imploded here and had to rebuild(along with becoming a
sock puppet for the national party). Thinking that "that person
disagrees with me because they are stupid and horrible" is never a good
idea even if the person is stupid and horrible.

And it is often an indication that the person who believes that (you
abuse the word "thinking") is projecting their own faults onto
others.

You are confusing "intelligence" with "stupidity".

Every so often, back when newspapers still existed as a viable
concept, I would read a story like this:

"NN, a female High School student, died when she flew through the
windshield of a car. She was sitting on her boyfriends lap next to the
driver, and the driver, being drunk, ran into a tree. Her parents
repart that she was an A+ student with a glorious life ahead of her."

or:

"NN, a male Eagle Scout and A+ student with a glorious life ahead of
him, was shot dead last night when he and his friends decided to
toilet-paper a house. Unfortuately, the owner didn't approve of this,
got his rifle, and fired into the fleeing car. The Sheriff stated that
he had been aware of this activity, but had not bothered to
investigate it because it was 'good kids doing stupid things.'"

These people were quite /intelligent/. They were also quite /stupid/.

And that's the difference, in two nutshells.

Two out of how many hundreds, if not thousands, of local Republicans
either in local office or seeking local office in California?

Up here, I have often voted for /sane/ Republicans for such positions
as Treasurer and Auditor. They tend to be very good at keeping track
of State money.

And even the Republican Secretary of State who joined us to the
anti-ACA lawsuit, did an excellent job at protecting consumers from
rapacious "businesses".

But the last Republican to lose to the current Governor was a whiner
who claimed that more people voted in King County than lived there.
Which was simply not true. (What /is/ true is that far more eligible
voters actually voted than usual, producing far more votes, each and
every one of them valid, than usual.)

And there is at least one Republican State legislator who appears to
be a member of a "militia".

"None that are alive and famous, anyway." does not allow for *any*.

None of which in any way supports your bigotry.

People like you - at both ends of the political spectrum - are the
reason the world is such a shithole.

*You* are what's wrong with the world.

In my lexicon stupidity and intelligence are antonyms. I'd instead say that
the individuals were intelligent but unwise. Intelligence and wisdom are
orthoganal to each other.

You said it before me.

Intelligence is about solving problems.

Wisdom is asking whether or not there is a problem that needs one's
attention.

I do have the prejudice that a black person who would vote
Republican - at least, _these_ days - in the privacy of the voting
booth is acting in a way that is manifestly against his interests
(in most circumstances), and could fairly be described as acting
stupidly, therefore.

However, this would depend on the individual candidates running in
the district; not _all_ Republicans, even now, are followers of Trump,
and some Democrats are less than perfect as well.

When it comes to the people who I think of when I hear the phrase
"black Republican", however, stupidity is _not_ what comes to my
mind.

I may strongly disagree with his opinions, but Dr. Ben Carson is
_clearly_ quite intelligent and well read and so on. The negative
epithets that come to my mind in his case would instead be ones
questioning his *sincerity*.

But "these days" began quite recently. I have nothing but admiration
for, say, Colin Powell - and any black people who voted for Ronald
Reagan, for example, would also get my praise, for rising above
narrow self-interest to vote in what they percieved to be the best
interests of the Union as a whole.

There's nothing wrong with a diversity of political views among black
people; it's only today's lunatic-fringe Republican party that makes
being a black Republican seem suicidally stupid.

I saw an interesting summary of a popular science article recently that looked at typical adolescent stupidity and compare it to more sane decision by adults. What they found was that the adults were relying on experience unavailable to that adolescents, who were no less intelligent.

In "Fledgling", Lee and Miller make a finer distinction--in the
fictional society of that story, "advertency" plays a major role. If
one came to grief by their own actions they would be considered
"inadvertent", and "inadvertency" whether one came to grief or not,
was IIRC an actionable offense.

You are assuming that you know better than that person what that
person's interests are. Which is typical behavior for a crusading
do-gooder.

If the all-powerful State knows better than the voters and is expected
to act on that superior knowledge, they why bother with this sham of
voting as if it changes anything. But of course you want people to
believe that they live in a "democracy".

That's perfectly fine, but I find that

"Stupid is as Stupid does"

is more euphonic than

"Unwise is as Unwise does"

to my ear.

Of course it does.

It allows for those who were famous when the were alive, serving as a
reminder that it /is/ possible for not-stupid Republicans to exist.

And it allows for those who are alive but not famous, that is, who are
unknown outside their State and likely to remain so. Because, being
not-stupid, they never mess up badly enough to get on the Evening
News.

Of course it does. There are good Republicans who run for office, just
not very many of them. And none of them widely-known.

You do realize that my "bigotry" is simply a projection of your own,
right? And the 30% of people who voted an otherwise-straight
Republican ticket in Maricopa County but voted for Biden for President
were all good Republicans, both in the sense of their support of the
Party and in their patriotic recognition that Trump had to go.

>*You* are what's wrong with the world.

I wouldn't doubt it, but, sadly, I don't think not being here would
make any difference. You, after all, would still be around.
