We need an actual count.
The statements below are too ambiguous.
An actual account, the lowest possible estimate, was provided. But absolute numbers don't matter.
If the entire population of Jews today were 1000 people and the state decided to eradicate all 1000 for the purpose of eliminating the ethnic group, then that would be a genocide. It is the intent, the systematic depopulating or elimination of a people, that is the defining characteristic of genocide, not the absolute number of people killed.
A nuclear war, not directed at any specific people, that wiped out 90% of the world's population would not meet the definition of genocide.
And currently we are seeing the attempted de-humanization of white people, by casting all white people as inherently racist
Wtf ?
JUst don't know about you Patrick.
Patrick has colonial tendencies. He really likes the idea of empire
I sincerely doubt that given Patrick's statements regarding the British empire and England's treatment of the Irish.

I'll be the first person to call bullshit on race-baiting, but admitting the truths of history, no matter how horrifying, is not race-baiting. We acknowledge what really happen in history so that we can prevent the mistakes and atrocities of history from being repeated. This is why we look at all those disgusting pictures of the Holocaust in history class. And yes, you are suppose to hate the Nazis when looking at them. Hate serves a good purpose. The purpose of hate is to deny evil the benefits of cooperation and the power it could acquire through cooperation.
Furthermore, by condemning the Americans of the past who committed these atrocities I prevent myself from inheriting their sins. Those who whitewash the past inherit the guilt of the past. For example, the American South will never be forgiven for slavery until it admits its guilt and stops all attempts to economically, socially, and politically oppress the descendants of slaves through the war on drugs, voter suppression, zoning, etc.
No, calling it liberal would be mislabeling it. Calling it leftist is very accurate.
Dan, can you please elaborate and explain the difference between the two? They are usually used synonymously, but if they shouldn't, it would be helpful to understand the difference.
Done. So as to not derail this thread, I've opened another.
I don't see fake movement of conservative marching in the streets. If there was someone finding Cliven bundy, so be it, but that hasn't received 1/100th of the coverage the fake BLM movement did. I think it's a bit of a stretch to expect the backers of the current four day old protests to be uncovered by a msm with no interest in doing so, but I think it's very reasonable to assume based on prior events:
So did you only read the headline? Because you either didn't read the article. or you didn't understand it.
No fake conservative movements? Really? The entire tea party is a fake conservative movement. The entire climate denial movement is a fake conservative movement. The bulk of anti obama care was a fake conservative movement. The hundreds and hundreds of tax exempt groups with names like americans for, citizens for, people for that constantly come and go are all fake conservative movements. Just because you choose not to know doesn't mean it's not out there.
I sincerely doubt that given Patrick's statements regarding the British empire and England's treatment of the Irish.
You are correct. He has corrected me and agrees that colonization is evil. I am just saying Trump as a manifestation of colonization could end up being worse than Clinton due to the racism that could affect his foreign policy. But we will see.

Did you read the title of this thread?
So what? It's been working for the clintons for ages.
Trump just took their strategy of flipflopping and successfully amplified it to the nth degree.
Stings like a bitch, don't it?
marcus says you made your bed says
Nobody actually knows where Trump is on the political spectrum, becasue he was just lying like crazy to get in power.
Yes, listening to him pander to evangelicals as an atheist, flip flop 3 times on the same day on abortion, spending the majority of his life as a NY lib, etc supports that.
FIFY...

it becomes easy to harm themThey become baby libbies.

I have gone into stores and have had to seek out the glances of people of color and smile and assure them with that smile that I
am not Trump nor do I care for Trumpdo not wish to be robbed by them.
Did you read the title of this thread?
Did you? Did you actually read the article? What does a couple high school kids fighting that have to do with soros or baltimore riots?
Trump supporters are no better than clinton supporters. There are equally crazy loonies on both sides. Trump asked his supporters to stop their violence yesterday. I guess you and patrick missed that. Didn't make the right wing echo chamber "news" did it? Led around by the nose much? Maybe if you ask nicely you can borrow your soul, brain and balls back on weekends. I've heard that sometimes trolls and right wingnuts are allowed to do that.
FIFY...

Incorrect grammar. Libbies is not a valid contraction of libertarian.
The violence is bad. The protests are good. They should save the Trump voter flogging till after he fracks up America.
The protests are entirely funded. That is not good.
Is it true? Source?

This happened on Wednesday very close to where I live and is not surprising.
The first story is connected to the one below it. Students are being taught in school that violence against even suspected Trump supporters is OK, because Trump is being compared to Hitler by their leftist teachers in class.
Students are being taught that democracy is good only when The Narrative is upheld, ie, the provably false story that everyone is a victim except white people, and white people are the victimizers of everyone else. Reality be damned, The Narrative gets the left funding and political support to play the victim card over and over ad nauseum.
By the way, there was no genocide against the Indians. It was smallpox. And the US Army did not distribute smallpox infested blankets to the Indians. We need to repeat this over and over because so many people were taught lies. Of course others seeking sympathy and funding will repeat their lies over and over because it is profitable to do so. And whites do it because they enjoy "signalling their virtue" to others.
