The idea that violent extremism is left wing thinking only is ridiculous. Extremism by definition is at the far end of either side of political spectrum.

Whatever. I dislike the idea of discussing any of this with people (not all of you! But you know who you are) that have taken race social economics and politics and tried to mix them together into a religion who's messiah is anyone who will repeat their intolerance.

I posted the facts about left vs right wing extremism a few pages back. Right wing extremism is more than double vs left. This info isn't hard to find. It is common from people that fav right wing conspiracy's and alternative facts to not believe any news organization that show real hard data.. Trying to get any to except it ain't gonna happen.

In the past 10 years when you look at murders committed by domestic extremists in the United States of all types, right-wing extremists are responsible for about 74 percent of those murders..You have to go back to the 1970s to find the last big cycle of far-left extremism

Been informed I misunderstood cannavores post. My bad. This is yet another reason I try not to discuss politics of extremism. Misunderstandings are rife in conversations that stir up fundamental passions and without enough engagement to truly understand other parties it usually leads to more alienation not less.

Lol I'm going to go smoke a doobie. My bad Cannavore, sorry for frothing at you.

I have stayed out of the political debates on this site. Everyone and their brother with their partisan statistics and studies that affirm their views.

We are all batshit crazy for turning on each other when only the real criminals in power benefit from divide and conquer tactics and identity politics. No different than a magician wanting you to watch one hand while he tricks you with the other.

I am partisan as hell, but have realized the only true enemies we have are not each other but those who seek to divide us.

Reminds me of my favorite Nofx song The Decline. " The going gets tough, the tough get in debt. Don't pay attention pay the rent."

Their temper tantrum (they lost and didn't get their way) is amplified by the hatred that consumes them. They can't understand how it happened. It is similar to when a society or cultures loses their totems and beliefs are exposed as false. They break down and become alcohol or drug addicted and fail to thrive. Obama failed and Clinton lost. The ghost shirt (obamacare) didn't protect them from a bullet and the white buffalo (Hillary) died. They are lost.

Awww.... even cuter!

Wish I didn't say anything. Now some more anti Semitic

Thank you for the compliment !

I am anti-criminal.

Just as the ADL was founded in 1913 to distract the public from Leo Frank's murder of a young gentile woman,

the accusation of "anti-Semitic" is used as part of the Ad Hominem attacks

on people who simply tell the truth about Talmudic Jews and/or Israel.

Funny isn't it - most people are so caught up in the divide - and so passionately - they fail to see that they are just some barely noticeable pawn in the very old game of divide and rule - nicely, succinctly, and smoothly engineered to make us go to work and/or go to war - over whatever faux evil is next on the agenda.

Problem is that this power of control which uses these methods has had very good success with them in the past - so I don't see them being ditched in the immediate future -

Screw partisanship...

Trump is a dangerously unprepared and excessively inciting "leader".

If he were to have remained a Democrat it wouldn't change his stripes.

Seeing more posts of this nature, each one leaves me a little more hopeful.

Meanwhile this whole batch of bullshit in the professional wrestling that is politics, the only people being fucked are us, the people.

All the while the two parties going back stage and off air hanging in the same places saying" we really got those shit kickers riled up, didn't we?

That's what they call all of us left or right. You guys know that lil tidbit?

yeah cause expanding 2 wars into 7, pushing right wing health care plans, going after whistleblowers, bailing out the banks were liberal things to do. he's a centrist even by self admission.

neo-liberals and clinton democrats are what makes up the party. which are ideologically closer to being centrists or moderates than they are to actual liberals.

the US democrats would be members of the conservative party in the UK or likely anywhere else in europe. to think these people are liberals is a joke. they are corporatists who uphold the will of the oligarchy above all else which is the real enemy of the US.
