Hmmm? How many leftist militia groups are there versus right?

How many times has the left “protested” on capital hill to overturn an election and threatened violence against political figures?

Yes, it certainly seems that way, as many major news channels blow up many white-on-black crimes, finding ways to blame them on the right,


Well? Police tend to be conservative and IIRC they overwhelmingly supported the ex-president.

and don't even show instances of black-on-white or black-on-black crimes.


My googlefu is bad today. I remember a story where a white woman and a black man were recorded during traffic stops. There was a definite difference in approach by the police.

The media is free from government control, which I support this free media, but this gives way to bias disguised as racism/sexism/etc.


A funny thing? Game of Thrones makes me smirk every time I hear the word “but”. “Everything before the word ‘but’ is horse shit.”. There are times where that comment is very true.

It’s easier to make the claims of bias as well. Bias is a lazy measurement. Is what was reported false? Even then; on big issues; different sources are good. Neutral sources are better (ie Reuters and the AP).

Yes, there are many instances of violence among the far right, but just as much came from the far left-wing people, such as the burnings, riots, etc.


And church shootings.

There is a peaceful way to deal with stuff, but If you try to do anything that doesn't agree with the leftist agenda, you are automatically a racist, and they paint the worst picture of you possible.


“but”. ;). These are contineous times and yes you can be labeled that. Even then; you should ponder what you are saying/arguing/doing? You may think it’s nothing and yet it can be highly offensive to others.

Example; I have a couple in-laws who can’t understand why “nigger” is so offensive.

I would like to be tagged for something justified, not an accusation of racism/sexism that has no justification. The left-wing media is taking advantage of the heart-wrenching history and emotions of African Americans to further their agenda, and I say that has to stop.


Left-wing media? Labels aren’t a sign of an open mind.

People can say the right-wing media is taken advantage of situations by claiming the race card; racism; etc., etc.


I strongly agree with Viennaria and the millions of us strongly agree with Viennaria, this is all I have to say, because it says it all.

I understand your post, my English is not that bad. The Problem is we exist with our views and are American Citizens of the USA, just like you guys exist with your views and are American Citizens of the USA, and we have to respect each others views on all issues and leave it there like I do, while strongly disagreeing with each other, it is called Freedom of Expression and Democracy, I follow it on all issues with all Persons of all ethnic groups, of all races and all Political views even Communists, I am a Native Cuban and American Citizen. The Millions of us are Proud Republican Trump Supporters Pro USA, USA, USA, American Nationalist Patriot Citizens of the USA With Pride And Honor, no matter what you guys say, think or believe, no matter what any persons, say think or believe. Why because we are us and we know what we are and how we are With Pride And Honor.

To all Persons it might concern, I don't decide Reality For You, You don't decide Reality For Me and no one on NS and Discord and no one off NS and Discord decides Reality For Any Persons, it is called Freedom of Expression and Democracy and I follow it with all Persons and all Persons Political Views, With Pride And Honor - GMS.

So it turns out this was fake news

This doesn’t follow at all, not only because the things mentioned in the OP center around actual (usually violent) incidents, not random internet speech—if that were the case, there’d be tens of thousands of instances of “plots” from something like TheDonald alone—but also because this is perhaps the lowest effort no-name fallacious Twitter “debunk” imaginable. But go off I guess, I’m sure those 72 extra fatalities only happened “in Minecraft” or something.

Millions of people also agree that the election was allegedly rigged. All that tells me is that millions of people are poor fucking sports who won't just own up to supporting a clownish disgrace of a president.

Also, it was the democrats that supported the racist movements and slavery, while the Radical Republicans did all they could during Reconstruction to put a stop to the violence and give African Americans equal rights.

It's almost like the Republican party reoriented itself to appeal to white Southerners, becoming the further-right of the two rightist parties and pushing the Democrats to the moderate right.

It's almost like the Republican party reoriented itself to appeal to white Southerners, becoming the further-right of the two rightist parties and pushing the Democrats to the moderate right.

I was about to go in completely uninformed about how the rate of terrorism is most likely somewhat equally, but I stopped to do some actual research and found that Right-wing terrorism is, indeed, far more prevalent. In fact, it's more prevalent in a lot of countries as of recent. The reason, I'd say, is most likely the fact that society has been in a slow leftwards trend for centuries now, so both more people end up in the Right AND more people on the Right feel desperate to protect their beliefs.

The Right, while a critical counterbalance to some degree, is ultimately the side of slow and painful defeat. Civilization will continue to trend leftwards for the foreseeable future, with the Right only able to stall it or keep Left-wing radicalism in check, with notable exceptions like Poland. How many people were considered criminal or less-than-human at birth 100 years ago? How many secular/religiously tolerant governments were 400 years ago? Society continues to waddle left at a slow but stead pace, and those who cling to the ideals of years long past inevitably end up left behind.

A large minority on the Right have dug in and are ready to die on their hill. Some quite literally.

(Also, as I was about to post this, I realized the same thing is happening with technology. That's why a lot of anti-technologists [anti-vaxxers, 5G-phobes, internet abolitionists] are also Right-wing. It's not that they are dumb necessarily, but rather cling desperately to the technology of some bygone era rather than adapt.)

Politically motivated violence is the language of those who believe that their side is losing. In the 70's, the right was ascendant and the radical left felt that violence was the only possible action, hence the riots, bombings, bank jobs, etc. Today, the left is on the ascendance and the radical right feels that they must stop it by any means possible.

The progressives/leftists should almost welcome the fact that the radical right is reacting in this fashion; it means that they are winning the culture wars.
CYNIC, n. A blackguard whose faulty vision sees things as they are, not as they ought to be. Hence the custom among the Scythians of plucking out a cynic's eyes to improve his vision.

Does that mean there's gonna be right-wing hippies being stomped out by left-wing state police in riot gear in the next 5 years?
