AF has had a lot of hilarious comments lately too.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostakovitch says

But you told me I was OBLIGATED! TO! OFFEND!

I took lessons and everything!

All your agitprop friends will turn on you, AF, if you ever start making fun of Biden.

Trump has clearly not invested in cannabis, because he never would go after loyal customers like that.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostakovitch says

Oh! You think I'm kidding?

Not entirely. That's why it's funny.

Yes, this was the "freedom to offend" site.

But as it becomes increasingly obvious (even to members of the cult) that the strongest argument that can be made in the 2020 campaign against Trump is how divisive he is, suddenly some of his supporters are trying to get in front of that by saying that the opposite is true.

Since Trump is and always has been completely about unifying America and not dividing it (that's what the dirty commie libs do), it's only appropriate that after having this break through about Trump, Patrick wants to lead by example helping Trump to continue his successful efforts unifying America.

As much as the polarization in America has decreased in America, thanks to Trump, there's still more work to do. Hence civil debate is what it's all about.

working white men embrace divisive lies and propaganda as reality

Quit vilifying and discriminating them and they will stop voting for tRUMP. They might even vote D in elections, if they will not be repeatedly told by D-supporters that they are FUCKING WHITE MALES.

jazz_music says

they can sure dish it out every day can't they? Taking pride in a despicable nature.

They can, but vilification of a whole group of humans because of their race and gender does not help and is RACIST! SEXIST! and despicable.
See last elections in Great Britain, where working class regions switched to Tories after voting for Labour since forever. Reason: if liberal media calls you an idiot hick long enough, you will get pissed and vote against your own economic interests.

Next stop: US of A citizens of Mexican descent. SJW's will succeed into turning those into Trumpkins as well...in W. TX they already have started voting R.

I haven't read Steven's book, but I can see that what IT IS NOT ABOUT, is a group being labeled in an innocuous way, and then reacting to that label by buying (or being resold) a bunch of propaganda.

They and others, including trust fund types and many others that have reason to wish the right wing propaganda were true may I guess be considered victims of their own vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

To then label them after the fact as a "type" may have a very minor affect of making them likely to stick with the propaganda even while realizing it's wrong. But it's really beside the point. Certainly beside the point Jazz was making, which was about what happened to the republican party.

I'm guessing at least 60% chance rdB6 didn't read the paragraphs about Steven's book, at least not yet when he wrote that comment. Whether or not I'm right, it's all so fucking beside the point.

jazz_music says

That's not even possible when too many working white men embrace divisive lies and propaganda as reality.

That's not divisive at all...

Tim Aurora says

I have not supported Malcolm X and sure do not care much of what he says.

FortWayneIndiana says

Most dangerous and racist people are white liberals according to Malcolm X.

Neither MLK apparently since you aren't supporting that part either.

Tell that to British Labour - recent landslide historical election loss is not a minor effect.

I read about 60% of it and in that sense you are right %-wise. But Jazz comment before quote from book seems kinda racist and divisive, 180 deg from what he claims he means (that we all should be united against establishment, which I agree with). If his side keeps calling me a Fucking White male, Oppressor of Womyn and Minorities, what chance there is that I ever vote for them?

Interesting article. Bias may exist but not in actual shootings - as others have noted earlier in thread.

Steve Bannon’s new book says he invented the “deep state” and only idiots believe it exists

LOL

MUH TRUMP!!!

OooOOOoooo... you’re a bbbbeta .... LOL LOL LOL

You read it?

If not, please link to quote. Tks.

jazz_music says

Steve Bannon’s new book says he invented the “deep state” and only idiots believe it exists

More properly in context:

"The “deep state conspiracy theory is for nut cases”, Bannon is quoted as saying, because “America isn’t Turkey or Egypt”.

There is a formidable government bureaucracy in the US, he adds, but “there’s nothing ‘deep’ about it. It’s right in your face.”"

Bannon is being glib. He didn't say it didn't exist, he said it isn't a conspiracy because it isn't secret and it is right in your face. I would say that means it has graduated from conspiracy theory to a fact of life, but there are more layers than a dismissive theory.

I would tend to agree, although 'Deep State' is still a synoptic useful term. If they covered up Epstein's mess, and murdered him in a Federal prison in full view brazenly, and continue to pull transparent and obvious psychopathic strategies, they are certainly not a shadowed conspiracy theory any more. They just now have the arrogance to believe that nobody can do anything about it so why lurk in the shadows any more.

Not this guy?

Tim Aurora says

There is a great divide between the Trumpsters and Liberals

Starts out completely lost and drones on with complete delusion. First, it's liberals and conservatives who protect liberal principles who voted for Trump. The democrats and leftists ARE-NOT-LIBERAL!

But second, I'll answer the question in the title: Because if dip-shits keep ratcheting shit up lots of people like you are going to get hurt very badly or killed. That's why. I think it was ten-pound that recently said: We're ballers and killers and he's exactly right. That's what humans are.

One day, you'll be standing there with your ear muffs on about to break a window to steal a donut then blam! You're dead. Somebody got sick of this shit.

It's one of the reasons a lot of Texas are civil with each other.

CBOEtrader says

Per police encounter a black is far less likely to be shot by police.

Any guesses why that might not be as meaningful as you think it is ?

Do you ever just state a fact? You communicate in memes and ambiguity. Try direct information please

"It Was All a Lie: How the Republican Party Became Donald Trump" by Stuart Stevens

Someone wrote a book! Ok gosh! I guess that changes everything! Because as you know, they don’t let anyone put anything but ABSOLUTE TRUTH in a book!

Guess where the left wing media focuses.

And, this is raw numbers. Imagine if it were on a percentage-of-population basis lol

Tim Aurora says

That graph is showing totals, blacks only make up 13 percent and are doing more than whites which make up 66 percent. This graph clearly shows how much more violent blacks are, thanks for sharing.

Soooo....who's the real victim here?

RC2006 says

Bingo. Facts can hurt. Unfortunately Tim, we can do this all day.

Tim Aurora says

Please provide the link with statistics. Alt-Right fibs numbers

The FBI is alt right? Im sure official government facts and data are all just tools of white supremacy

Tim can you explain the violence in your chart, why are you ok with so much violence against whites?

Tim Aurora says

BTW, the chart shows that white on Black and Black on white is low and almost the same.

Um, what part don’t you understand about 76% of the population being White and 13% being Black? The facts are not one dimensional.

Blacks have built their own perception problem.

I listened to the first few minutes of the video. All of the retorts were either strawman arguments, or were very weak arguments that did not disprove Trump's claim.

A typical TDS infected girly man.

Are you working Jazz?

Jazz MIGHT be right, but the underlying problem (why we have unemployment) is idiotic shutdowns of everything because of a common cold, and tRUMP is not responsible for that other than not having large enough BALLS to stop shutdowns.

jazz_music says

The last few years we saw Congress and the Supreme court marginalized. Checks and balances are no longer effective. Presidential branch trumps the others, free to purge and punish all opposition and reward loyal cronies.

Funny you're just realizing this now, instead of 20 years ago when you should have.

OBSERVING

Oh bullshit.

Where was the declaration of war against Afghanistan? Iraq? Syria? Libya? Pakistan? Yemen? Somalia?

"The rise of tyranny"? We've been in it for decades. People have been warning about this for decades. Google, Facebook, and Twitter actively censor political speech. Our government constantly lies to us about why they go to war. Our "news" media is relentless propaganda in support of the criminal syndicate that calls itself the government.

Where's the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? What was the "humanitarian crisis" that Qaddafi was "about to cause"? Why was our nation bombing Syria?

Shit, we just had a coup attempt against Trump because he's an outsider. Complete silence on that. We had a previous president that used the intelligence agencies spy on candidate Trump in an attempt to get that butcher Clinton elected, a piece of shit that voted for the Iraq War. NOW you worry about tyranny. We don't live in a democratic system, we don't live in a republic - unless a banana republic is a republic to you.

It's has to get so fucking obvious to get you to be "observing". Well, here we are - 4 trillion dollar bailout to the banking system, neither party will allow us to exit the wars in Afghanistan or Syria - even though you have no fucking idea why we're there. It's been a dictatorship for a shockingly long time - but finally you're "observing" as if the obvious hasn't been obvious for years, but finally it's obvious to you - finally. Finally, people like you are starting to "observe".

No monsters here. These people are all right wing conservatives

Um, no. These people on the still picture are all National-Socialists.

jazz_music says

No monsters here. These people are all right wing conservatives enjoying their comfortable lives which they work for and obviously deserve.

No matter how much the Media tries to gaslight them that their work prototyping embedded chips and vector engines is only possible because of cotton picking in 1795

He's the precise meat puppet the criminal syndicate that runs this nation wants.

This man can't think, and I literally mean that, he has no principles at all, and he will be the perfect figurehead. All of our presidents have been complete sellouts and figureheads since at least George H. Bush with the possible exception of Trump.
