I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

In my experience, people on the political far-left rarely look deeply at the issues - they just react to what's on the surface. Homeless people are needy, give them money. I don't like what these people are saying, so lets try to silence them. The fact that silencing people's freedom of speech is part of a larger issue never even enters most of their brains.

There are stupid people on both sides, an extreme of anything isn't what we need.

@Kuronekko: I realize that SW is not exactly the gold standard of reasoned political debate, but this is a new low: racist politcal thought may be wrong, but it's not shallow? Mmmkay 🙄

Great, we've gotten to the point where you've stopped arguing with me, and are instead showing haughty contempt for my opinion before I even get a chance to respond to you. But what should I expect from someone so arrogantly closed-minded that they unilaterally call all religious texts "fairy tales" as if that's just an accepted fact.

Yes, they would serve us better, if the left, each time they did see an old lady, help her shop. If they see a poor person, to buy them a meal. Then day by day, people would come together and not be so divided by getting upset, getting so upset and doing nothing to help but upset and divide.

That's a good point - people on the left are so gung-ho about changing everything, but how often do they actually put their money where their mouths are and actually act to create that change, with more than just words?

I found the opposite to be true. The majority of conservatives, on SW, have NO knowledge of American History. It's amazing how many Europeans have to inform them about basic world history. Why is your party so paranoid and ignorant? Good luck trying to "silence" them. I think the Natzis tried to do something similar.

"Why is your party so paranoid and ignorant? Good luck trying to "silence" them. I think the Natzis tried to do something similar." - I'm confused, where did this come from?

Planspoken - I bring to your attention, that most who post here are not from the USA.....
We know if you want good to happen in your city/country, that to wait for your political party to do this, it won't happen. You want change, then get of your behind and do good for those you can. I don't need to learn history, I know action, helps not bitter fight to be right about my point of view.
