Considering the last week..... Republicans aren't proving them wrong....
I've been thinking that I need to take a full day to compile a list of news articles and links showing what the left has done to Trump supporters. Things like where they'd tortured that kid and put it on facebook or people randomly assaulting Trump supporters. Or maybe how the left is constantly equating all republicans with various slurs or negative terms (reddit a goldmine for that).
That list would show that republicans have no responsibility to respond to anything the left says. It's a place that I've been warning for two years that we'd reach and suddenly here we are.
When you constantly act like a child and vilify everyone for different-think, it should come as no surprise when people stop listening, stop responding, and completely dismiss you. Well, not you specifically. "You" as in collective you. You know what I mean. You.
I think it would be just as easy to compile a similar list of the other side. How many right wing nutters have faced federal charges for criminal behavior? Usually motivated by race/identity/politics.
Also calling some one misogynist or racist is not equivalent of calling someone a mudslime/nigger/kike etc.
Reddit is a gold mine for that yes, just as voat is a gold mine for the opposite.
Everything is on fucking fire right now. Politics has reached a new low in morality while simultaneously reaching a new high of participation.
Both sides are guilty of some outrageous partisanship and many are participating in some heinous shit to get the upperhand.
The big issue is when you generalize the population into 2 basic political classes and assume beliefs and actions based on that. It quickly falls apart when you start discussing with individuals who hold their own beliefs on what's important.
Also the left: "All republicans are terrorist and racist."
