This reminds me of what a buddy and I used to do when my grandma was living with us back in the early 70's. We would take her wheelchair out to the road, and then we'd wait until we saw a car coming and I'd take off down the road in the wheelchair with my friend frantically chasing after me. I'd also lay it on its side in the ditch beside the road and lay beside it just to see cars slam on their brakes to see what was going on!

I agree it's none of your business but you referred to me as a leftist, Then you threw half a biblical quote at me. "casting pearls before the swine" is a term that means smart people shouldn't waste their incredible knowledge on dumb people.

I did please remind me where I did call you leftist.

 

[JettaKnight]

And I'm sure there were people just as equally wrong about it as you are today.

Indeed. Sometimes it's hard to know who to fight in the fog of war.

Nancy Pelosi and her ilk put up with the squad, Bernie, BLM, uses antifa to help the cause. I doubt she wants communism/socialism.

Really? It definitely looks like she does to me. If not communism than a totalitarian police state of some kind. Maybe I shouldn't call Democrats communist. They are authoritarian in ideals and whatever government that brings about is okay with them.

I would guess the totalitarian police state of some kind - like her mafia family background.

Far left progressives sure act like they want communism. They may differ on what variety. Antifa wants anarcho-communism. BLM seems to like Maoism.

So she just flirts with it, Allows it to progress on her watch, but she doesn't want it?

So the leftist on here seen all white land owing conservatives males on all jurys when I was asking for a jury of a person's peers.

right here, I was the one who brought up that for the majority of history white land owning males were the only ones allowed to be on a jury.

I'm guessing it is OK with her because it is a step on the way. It's a very short step from there to totalitarian control.

No argument. Just stating a fact that the First Amendment is still valid at this time in spite of you trying to censor others.

Now this is funny

Because some things are objectively true. Rhetoric based on lies is more egregious than that which isn't. You'd be hard pressed to find any sort of support for fascism among trump supporters but the dems have elected avowed socialists to Congress, prominent members are talking about making lists of political enemies, they are passing legislation with the express goal of stripping their political opposition of power to name just a few. This is how authoritarian regimes come to power. Read history. There are those of who can see it, and those who either can't or don't want to admit it.

As to how it's helpful, maybe if those in 1910s Russia, 1930s Germany, 1940s China had spoken out more forcefully against the totalitarian forces at work to take control of their countries, 100 million people wouldn't have had to die. Some people need to wake up.

This. There seems to be a (proper) subset of INGO that is invested in overstating the 'threat' represented by Trump and America First while minimizing the threat represented by progressives and Marxism. I'm sure they feel they embody the voice of reason, but I cannot envision what enjoyment they derive from this to be so strident in their propaganda

Let's just leave my German heritage out this, shall we?

If you're internet argument involves Nazis, then you're not winning.

I thought, for the left, 'white supremacist' == neo-Nazi, so anytime we are accused of WS Nazis are automatically part of the argument

 

[nonobaddog]

Now this is funny

Glad you appreciate it.

 

[BugI02]

I'm sure for each horrible regime that came into power, there were folks as equally impassioned, equally certain they knew the truth, and equally certain their enemies must be destroyed, equally sure they weren't supporting a fascist dictator, equally assured of their righteousness,and equally sure that theirs was the path to freedom and happiness as you are today.

Glad you appreciate it.

I do, indeed.

I think he stuck the landing, though. We need a better camera angle

 

[BugI02]

One of the biggest if not the biggest political demographic change of the past few years is the higher educated shifting from republican to democrat, usually lead by females. They no longer care about the corporate tax like they once did (not that some still don't) they are now being focused on social credit by the powers that be. Look at all the woke corporations out there now. The educated are flocking to it...

So are you arguing for the repeal of the 19th amendment or what

I posted this in the other thread but I'll post it here too.

This lady is absolutely WONDERFUL! LOVE her heart, spirit, and frankness.

The ONLY negative I find here, is that it`s a shame that ONLY a black person could say all she said without being called a racist, and likely have their personal life ruined.

 

[BugI02]

I think there are two competing factions. The communists/bat **** crazy woke progressives and the crony establishment. The latter I gues we could say are the oligarchs. The former are just useful idiots. I mean if we’re speculating.

But Soros is creepy and evil enough that I can believe he has plenty of money and may desire the power of life and death over others or the absolute power over the lives of others. The support for woke prosecutors sort of aligns with weakening the foundations of the system, but it could just as easily align with being some sort of death eater or some sort of Thulsa Doom wannabe

Are we sure Elizabeth Báthory is dead? I could see Nancy wanting to bathe in the blood of young women in order to stay 'young' herself

 

[gregr]

Well, a good start would be stop calling everyone you disagree with a communist.

Oh, by no means ought we to call something what it is...
