    Conservative terrorism is out control. It breaks out specifically across racial and socioeconomic lines.

    Moderates and liberals are trying to protect themselves, while conservatives are hell-bent on tearing everyone down.

    My hope is that these are the death throes of the Republican party. A loud gasp for air before the party croaks and shatters.

      An important point, liberals are moderates. Or rather, centrists.

            Does voting third party change anything right now? No. So you vote for the least evil option because that’s the best hope you have at present. Would I love for there to be a viable socialist candidate? Sure. Would I vote for one if that option made it more likely for Trump to get elected? Absolutely not.

            Voting should be pragmatic.

            Not OP, but I live in a strongly Democratic state/district, so I know I can vote my conscience. If NYC doesn’t go blue, we have bigger problems than who I voted for. (I’ll probably write in Chuck Tingle, honestly.)

        How is it projection when that is exactly what they are doing?

        How many more dead kids do you need to see before taking action on conservative terrorism and white terrorism?

              Cited like a true libtard from a hard left newspaper. Do some research genius. When you have a left wing nut job the story gets dropped from the news rather quickly. Maybe because it makes their side look like assholes.

                  Spoken like a true soyboy. Go tell everyone how men can get pregnant, how you’re not a biologist so you can’t deine what a women is, and make sure you get some good video of your wife cucking you. For people with mental damage like yours there is no help. You have your head so far up your ass it will never see the light of day. I love how self righteous you are when every non-libtard laughs at you daily.

                When did the Washington Post become “hard left?” I missed that one. Especially when it’s owned by an ultra-capitalist. Or are you going to claim Jeff Bezos is a socialist?

                  Are you really trying to say Bezos isn’t another lefty? Scroll down prime video and all the woke bullshit they stream now. If you’re that far off of reality I’m not wasting my time.

                    I’m trying to say he’s not “hard left” by any stretch of the imagination.

                    What “hard left” policies does Jeff Bezos agree with?

                Oh honey….It’s cute that you think a newspaper owned by Jeff Bezos is hard left. Read Jacobin sometime, your head might explode. It’s funny when I remember that the “hard left” the right thinks they’re battling are milquetoast liberals who think maybe we shouldn’t actively harm historically marginalized groups anymore. I bet you think Joe Biden’s a commie, too, don’t you? Bless your heart…You’ve probably never even met a real leftist.

            You’re confused, you don’t even know what a ‘hate group’ is.

            You think Christianity is a ‘hate group’

                And this is why everyone ignores you people and your over-dramatic use of terms like ‘hate group’

                Terms like ‘hate group’ ‘fascist’ ‘Nazi’ are not hyperbolic terms, they are very specific terms with very specific meanings. They are not to be used the way you’re using them.

                I understand that liberals feel like definitions of words should be ‘fluid’ and depending on ‘how you feel’ the word should mean when you use it, but that’s just not how communication works.

                You don’t know what a hate group even is, obviously.

                You can call anything a hate group if you want, but if it’s not an actual hate group, it just makes you look like you don’t know what you’re talking about

              Now you are projecting hard. I got banned from subreddits just for belonging to a pro Trump sub. You can spew your bullshit until you’re blue in the face but everyone knows who the fascists are. The ones that don’t believe anyone but them should have an opinion or be allowed to speak and it isn’t Trump supporters.

                Can you define fascism? If not, I strongly suggest starting with Umberto Eco’s essay Ur-Fascism. And if you can, I’d love to hear what you think it consists of.

                I got called a ‘biological terrorist’ and automatically banned from r/justice served by those fascists mods.

                Never even posted there before, just woke up to a DM informing me

                This was when the abortion decision happened with the Supreme Court

                Looks like this place is no different from the last place.
