I am so tired of seeing the words "conservative", "republican", "democrat" and "liberal" these days.

As well as words related to those. People are seemingly only using them as insults these days, instead of simple words to signify people's political views. The left hates the right, the right hates the left, and very few people seem to consider the other side.

Like, relax. Politics is a spectrum. Stop calling people nazis for being somewhere on the right side of the spectrum and libtards for being somewhere on the left. You definitely have SOME political views in common. You're all adults. Stop acting like 13-year-olds who just discovered 4chan.

I agree, but the Democrats need to stop the VIOLENCE, starting with members of the Senate who promote violence, like Maxine Waters, Cory Booker, Hillary Clinton and a several journalists.
Shut down Antifa and that would be a good start.

@Synyster Hey dude? Next time, if you want to be taken seriously, it might not be a bad idea to include, oh, I don't know, the fact that for the past few decades the far right has pretty much held a monopoly on political violence. That's true. You know, killing Jews and blacks while they pray, shooting up newspapers, running people over at protests? Hate crimes are up 17% over last year. They've increased each of the past few years. Anti-Semitic hate crime is up 37%. Don't think a whole lot of the boogeymen from Antifa are responsible for that.
You sort of parroted nonsense man. Facts are SUCH a better way to go.

@Ynotisay Dude? Call me Synyster. First all I was referring to the present days, you know 2018. We can debate the past for ever, but today the left have shown more violence and their leaders are politicians promoting just that, violence. I never said Antifa killed anyone, but they have shown violence many times.

@Synyster But you're not "synyster.' You're pretending. That's cool. Who cares?
Question though dude.
You said 2018. I gave stats about 2018. I mentioned the newspaper killings and the Jews who were mass murdered That's 2018. I did mention the protestor who was run over and that was 2017. So you got me there.
Now when the dirty libtards start sending bombs to GOP lawmakers maybe you'd have a point. But right now you're sort of working from the "War on Christmas" angle. Maybe it's a FOX thing.

@Synysterthe great majority of terrorist attacks, mass shootings and hate crimes in America now and for many years are committed by white self-professed conservative males

@Ynotisay It's a username, of course I'm not him. One guy, who's has mental issues running over a person at a protest doesn't put the right at fault. The bomb fiasco? People are still wondering if it was originated from the Left. Bombs that would not detonate, hmm interesting.

Fox? C'mon CNN Don Lemon, it's a freaking circus show.

Sorry man, I'm done debating. My bad for even commenting on this post. I left a dysfunctional site becasue the Left, members of that site were so unhinged, psychotic, Trump hating deranged people. I don't want a repeat of that.

But you have been really good debating this topic, should be more of you around.

@tindrummer Show me the stats.
tindrummer · M
@tindrummer stats? It's common knowledge unless you choose not to acknowledge or admit it
Synyster · 51-55, M
@tindrummer But were does that come from? enlighten me. I'm not American.
tindrummer · M
@Synyster just living here and paying even minimum attention to the news
Synyster · 51-55, M
@tindrummer I'll take your word on that.
Ynotisay · M
@Synyster He's a smart man. You can trust what he says. I didn't know you weren't American. And what he says is true. The real political violence is coming predominantly from the far right. There's an explosion in militia groups and, clearly, white nationalists. Hate crimes really are on the rise. Blacks and Jews are the most common targets. Interestingly, Muslim hate crime has dropped.

Useful idiot-like typing detected.
tindrummer · M
@Ynotisay thanks for the compliment; I feel the same way about you fellow left-coast libtard 😁
Ynotisay · M
@tindrummer HA. Power to the Sheeple!

@Ynotisay You wrote - "The real political violence is coming predominantly from the far right."

That's fun to say, isn't it? Total bullshit, but fun to say!
daisymay · 51-55, T
@Budwick I look forward to your evidence to support your assertion. Otherwise, we'll have to rely on the actual reality of the situation.
Ynotisay · M
@Budwick Bullshit like FOX bullshit or bullshit like statistics? I'll give you the former. But I have the latter. Numbers don't lie.
lorne13 · 61-69, M
@Synyster please read the question again
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Ynotisay And thus far, you've offered neither.
Budwick · 70-79, M
@daisymay What assertion?
Synyster · 51-55, M
Ynotisay · M
@Budwick I could send you a laundry list and it would make zero difference. That's clear. That's why climate change isn't real and the chest-pounding, moral, religious Americans worship an immoral, non-religious (small p) president. It's a pointless endeavor.
Synyster · 51-55, M
@Ynotisay I probably should've of mentioned it.

Muslim hate crimes is on the rise here in Canada.
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Ynotisay Your empty non-reponse is expected.
Not at all helpful, fails to move the conversation forward, reveals that you have given your no thought to your comments and delightfully progressive.

[Is this actually Maxine Waters I'm talking to?]
Synyster · 51-55, M
@Budwick Hey Bud, These people are so much better to debate with than Amirite Trump haters. It's actually civil.
