Do u believe Donald Trump is to blame for the recent shootings in the US ? 🤔

As it stands today. It appears that Trump has emboldened these White Nationalists to commit these acts of terror. The recent events in our world today says everything. You saw the shootings in Texas and Ohio. White Nationalism, or nationalism from any ethnic group or race is the problem here. If we do not call it for what it is this tragedy will never end. Something needs to be done. But these racist comments from Trump must end. What do you think. 😐

I would say, that in part, yes, because the domino effect does exist, and though actions are indeed something the individual is responsible for (when conditions that mitigate responsibility i.e. inebriation/hypnosis/etcetera are not present), immediate reactions are indeed the fault of the instigator.

Of course, nationalism/terrorism, those are acts often committed under subjective hypnosis. No completely sensible individual would commit these acts unless made to do so in some form.

I don't condone these acts against people who otherwise have likely done no harm against anyone else, but I don't condemn the individuals who carried them out either. You blame the pawn, the Queen wins.

Yeah, it's Queen and Battalion Queen in the Chess I grew up with.

@AmyrakunejoYes. Words carry weight. They have power. Never ever underestimate the power of them either. 🙂
