I spoke with him about this matter. We agreed that he should rein in Republican extremism when it targets other Republicans likely to vote for the President.

Like I said, its the exact same stupid arguments coming from the left now that come from the right last week.

Okay:

The "It's a Muslim!" vs the "It's a white Republican!" thing are actually very different, not two sides of the same coin at all. Explosion/truck killing/shooting in Europe or even America? Many automatically assume the killer is a Muslim and it is an Islamic terror attack, without any outside information, background, context, or anything is available. It's just automatic.

With our friend Brandon over here, we know within reasonable doubt that he is a Republican, or at least a Trump supporter. He has admitted to calling in threats to Islamic places of worship, and while not all Republicans are anti-Islam, almost all anti-Islam folks in America vote Republican; and certainly most are Trump supporters, regardless of whether he is anti-Islam or not personally. Furthermore, Brandon spouted off very Trumpian rhetoric in his threat, another clear sign of Trumpist thought (obviously.)

So, also knowing that Trump is vehemently anti-CNN and has a fan base that loved it when he (arguably-but-most-likely-jokingly) called for physical violence against Democrats at his rally and posted gifs of CNN getting physically "destroyed, it can be reasonably inferred right off the bat that Brandon is a Trump supporter, and most likely white, considering the statistics of what race supports Trump the most and commits most acts of violence against Muslims. This coming from a white person.

There's also the large possibility that Brandon is alt-right/neo-Nazi. Those types of radicals would be the most likely to attempt to commit an act like this, of course. And, to answer the either idiotic or intentionally thickheaded response of "Neo-Nazis can't like Trump, he's pro-Israel!": go to 4-chan. It's the largest alt-right hub, even though not all the members are alt-right of course. Those that are alt-right/neo-Nazi are easy to find. They are all pro-Trump. They love most of his policies, even if they think he should be more radical. And, they actually ironically, while hating Jews, love or have a grudging respect for Israel as an example of the "ideal ethnostate." Weird, I know.

In short, "fascist" is a modern word for "heretic," branding an individual worthy of excommunication from the body politic. The right uses otherwords ("reverse-racist," "feminazi," "unamerican," "communist") for similiar purposes, but these words have less elastic meanings. Fascism, however, is the gift that keeps on giving. - Jonah Goldberg, revisited.

Just skimmed the article. Maybe I missed something.

Would you look at that, I assumed he was a Republican because he targeted CNN and railed against African-Americans and Jews, and probably called in threats to an Islamic centre. Consider my head hung in shame.

Not even Republicans like Alt-right "Republicans".

The smarter ones know Trump only supports Israel so it can be blown up and burned to send the Bat Signal to Jesus for the Second Coming.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

when radical republicans shoot up gay bars, concert-goers, drive vans into people, shoot up bridges or detonate random bombs here and there. Radical Islamism accounted for 27% of terror attacks since 9/11 (excluding 9/11), while Muslims are just 0.8% of the population. Slightly disproportionate but hey I don't want to point out the obvious.

Ah, so Republican terrorism is excusable until the body count matches Islamic terrorism.

So you whine as if someone was stabbing you with a fork whenever people mock Islam, and yet you freely mock Christianity with some bigoted joke.

Not only are you a hypocrite, you didn't have the dignity to make the joke funny. That's probably the worst part.

Let me know when there's a call for Christians be deported and banned en masse from the United States with support from the President.

And Evangelicals explicitly support Israel in hopes for the End Times. Going to dispute that?
