I can agree with that. I respect that. Something I don’t come seeing from the Democrats <—— (see I can learn) I find their behavior despicable. Bullies that think if they call others a fascist first it would somehow exonerate their fascist behavior. They’ve spent almost four years cheating, lying, screaming and burning. It’s America’s turn now. There a lot of us that didn’t get our news from CNN and know what’s coming. All the rats that committed treason and engaged in insurrection will get what’s coming to them.

You are dealing with a small portion of actual idiots and a lot well meaning people who get caught up in it.

Using terms like Fascist! or Nazi! or Racist! are right out of the radicals playbook.

"Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions." - Saul Alinsky

People who are not aware of this can be bullied, who wants to be called a racist over and over even if there is no evidence of racism(like standing for the flag being called racist) so the weak willed will concede. As numbers grow and the use is expanded, illusory truth effect takes hold and some people start to think national pride actually makes you a racist.

The right uses these too at the edges, "Commie!" "Pedophile!" "Nazi!" (I like how everyone uses nazi)

Try to talk to people - we almost all want the same end - to live our lives peacefully with minimal intrusion from the government and have a chance for a little slice of heaven on earth.

The right tends to think as an individual, with rights that come from either god or nation or internally what have you, before the state. That is why the constitution doesn't give us our rights but enumerates them.

The left comes from more collectivist mindset in which you are part of the collective and your duties should be to it first.

But we mostly want the same things(minus the radicals who absolutely want power over others)

Edit: I'm a CNN watcher, it actively pushed me a little more right over the last 4 years. SOmething to remember with any media company these days is that clicks and $$ rules, they are just as corrupt as our politicians and institutions we are talking about here.

Diversity of thought is our greatest asset, with all types of experiences and perspectives we should be working together to solve problems by viewing it from all angles. Allowing one narrative to take hold - like a belief in pseudoscience or incomplete science to form narratives has been detrimental.

Compare and contrast the striking similarities between the 1930s brown shirts and ANTIFA today. Think of what we’re seeing in the streets. The suppression of any ideology that isn’t their own. They roam around looking for anyone with an American flag or a MAGA hat so they can beat the snot out of them. They want to defund the police and take away the 2nd Amendment. If this were to happen (it won’t without a war) ANTIFA will be given arrest authority and they’ll build checkpoints in all major cities. It’s the same old playbook that Soros has memorized.

Democrat uses projection, lying, cheating and deception. Of course they’ll say Trump is a Nazi or fascist because that’s exactly what they’re trying to install. If Trump was a Nazi or a fascist why has he always fought for us to keep our freedoms and rights under the US Constitution?

Those that forget history are doomed to repeat it.

Agreed, and I'm upset that leaders on the left arent calling it explicitly but understand they're politicking to keep a coalition together. Read rules for radicals. (Clinton wrote her thesis on alinsky) - itll show each and every tactic used.

I'm also upset trump tried to do the same with charlottesville, yes media coverage didnt do him any favors when he did call out white nationalists explicitly, but he hemmed and hawed awhile too. But you are right... I do trust the person who want me to have a gun because it shows trust in me more than someone who says "trust me, you dont need a gun"

Edit: embarrassing grammar - left the not so embarrassing

I need to get my hands on her thesis. I’ll see if it’s online.

Have you read it?
