how is identity politics dangerous? Identity politics "Identity politics is a term that describes a political approach wherein people of a particular religion, race, social background, class or other identifying factor develop political agendas and organize based upon the interlocking systems of oppression that affect their lives and come from their various identities. Identity politics centers the lived experiences of those facing various systems of oppression to better understand the ways in which racial, economic, sex-based, gender-based, and other forms of oppression are linked and to ensure that political agendas and political actions arising out of identity politics leave no one behind."

so much hate. and yet i've never claimed to hate anyone on this site. i've said that Trump is tyrant and an idiot. but he's probably a pretty fun guy to hang out with. just not someone i'd want have run one of businesses or my country. but the echo chamber of hate for everyone thats not part of the echo chamber... its the worst i've ever seen it in my lifetime.

i don't know what M Obama said. she had one speech where she said to "focus your anger"? i think i saw that... i interpreted it as stop the violence and focus on making real change the hard way. how do you know that this 9 year old girl ever listened to M Obama? what a stretch. was the 9 year old girl listening to Rayshard Brooks? most 9 year olds i know are watching Spunge Bob Square Pants. you're a fucking cruel human to call her a "worthless little shit". its because she's black right? i've seen plenty of children get upset. i don't think you know what i mean because i don't think you have children. anyways, the cops got fired. you won't tell me what "leftist" means.

you listen to tucker. this is like the 8th time now you've said pretty well exactly what tucker has said. that guy is hilarious how he threads the needles. sometimes it takes him a good 5 minutes, changing topics every other sentence, to get the needle threaded. democrats now rule the pentagon who rule the national guardsman at the capitol who are there to make people afraid because democrats are afraid of people not being afraid of the alt-right. of course, the alt-right "bogeyman" broke a bunch of windows at that building and left a lot of video footage. so, not really a "bogeyman". unless the FBI are now arresting "bogeyman". anyways, lets hope they seize all guns. too many gun nuts.

agreed. very weird. but not unlike any other past president. not pining for attention numerous times a day. unfortunately, this blows his opportunity for the new Patriot Party! he'll just destroy the R party i guess.

omg. i think most of the people storming (Fox news verbiage) the capitol were Fox news watchers. people in distress are often not capable of obeying the police. if they are not a danger to themselves or others then they need to be dealt with differently. are you so clued out about these facts? come on. and i guess, people do have a right to fight with the police when those police are breaking the law or hindering your constitutional freedoms. there are cops going to jail as we speak. the ones in the earlier instance just lost their jobs. and they could have dealt with the issue differently. the 9 year old was upset. she was not a danger to herself or others.

great to see you support BLM, DogOnPorch.

has he always been like this or is it particularly bad at the moment? i was obviously away from this forum for awhile... but was thinking, wow, now i see why there are only like, five people, in the US politics section. its dominated by WestCanMans zealot veiws. its impossible to have to have a rational discussion. you're either in zealot la la land our your a leftist terrorist! which means everybody else is leftist terrorist. i'm assuming that he's just having a bad time recently and thats why the mods haven't already banned him for a spell.

michelle obamas fault for sure! hahaha! just more people in distress who haven't broken any laws who are being dealt with in the only way that the police know.

please spell it out for me. why are BLM and the people who support their cause racist?

BLM protesters surround Rochester police station after officers pepper-spray, restrain 9-year-old i find this interesting because the news report fails to say how they knew that the protesters were affiliated with BLM? or maybe if you're black and you're protesting police brutality then you are automatically BLM? i love this comment on the site: "The nine year old has been brought up in a toxic black culture that attacks law and order, applauded rape and abuse, condemn scholastic achievement, encourages deviant behavior and promotes one parent families. When will black people address their problems and quit whining and begging for more handouts." and quit whining about their children getting handcuffed and pepper sprayed i guess too! i'd say thats about as racist a comment as i've seen in awhile.

no election fraud. hmm... interesting. 2020 Post Election Poll Analysis of an Election Like No Other Trump pollster's campaign autopsy paints damning picture of defeat i think the mods can put a nail in this thread.

millions to cause a shit storm for he Rs. this segment with Lou Dobbs and Mark Meadows is lovely... Dobbs trashes McConnell, McCarthy and McDaniel in one breadth! Ds are finally gonna love Trump! Trump's Save America PAC starts 2021 with more than $31M, filings show

this belongs in the "future of the R party" thread but yeah... millions to cause a shit storm for he Rs. this segment with Lou Dobbs and Mark Meadows is lovely... Dobbs trashes McConnell, McCarthy and McDaniel in one breadth! Ds are finally gonna love Trump! Trump's Save America PAC starts 2021 with more than $31M, filings show

i guess because... they weren't trying to overthrow the government. or at least, they didn't seem to be because they weren't even nearly as successful as the Trump rioters. and as i've pointed out... thats the way it goes sometimes. people will put up with a little nonsense from people who are upset... until they invade the capitol building chanting "hang mike pence". also fox news doesn't agree with you... on Fox they say that "mob to storm the Capitol" to "attempted murder"! AOC's Ted Cruz tweet sparks growing pushback from House Republicans just a fact of life i guess.

and people of color still get the bad end of the socioeconomic stick. again, what do you mean when you call them racists? what did tucker say?

then i'm glad that we are finally in agreement that the violence should stop and those who perpetrated it should go to jail!

why don't you quote the organization instead of some extreme think tank. i mean, everything you say seems to be coming out of the mouth of Tucker Carlson. anyways... it doesn't matter. the whole riot at the capitol thing was highly unpopular. fox was unable to turn it into some kind of love fest. trump lost the election.

you don't give an inch do you? Secret Service investigating death threats against Pence Trump supporters chanting 'HANG MIKE PENCE' at the Capitol Building but that was just a bit of fun right?

but but... do you believe in racial equality? i'm not sure you've stated this definitively. BLM is an organization whose purpose it to promote racial equality.

i get it now that your mind is pretty walled off... possibly permanently. you don't give an inch on your interpretation or beliefs. lets sum it up though. you live in a world where most people look the other way when BLM protests get out of hand because their core cause is to promote racial equality. the Ds suffered not. you live in a world where most people are pretty shocked when the capitol building is invaded by protesters looking for politicians. i can safely say that because Rs took it pretty heavy. and corporate america would have none of it. you may believe it should be the opposite. but its not. so yeah, that sucks for your belief system. and because your belief system is not shared then its the victim. Trump is the victim.

yes, it is a topic. please... go on.

how is BLM racist? i think we're getting to the core of the matter with you here...

here's the thing... if others suggested sedition... it didn't happen. sedition happened in the name of Trump. if it happened in others names then they would be hung out to dry too. but it didn't. Trump is the only one on the hook.

Trump tried to frame the neo-nazis as statue defenders. hundreds of them marched the evening before singing white nationalist hymns. the footage of clashes were devoid of any people with "save our statues" signs and plenty of swaztikas and white nationalist flags. Gordon Sondland and others knew exactly what Trump meant on that call. what would the Ukranians know about crowdstrike? nothing. Gordon Sondland and other testified that military aide was being held up. they testified that Trump wanted an investigation into the Bidens... they didn't even need a real one, just an announcement. Sondland: Trump and Giuliani wanted Ukraine to announce, not actually do, the probes "i just want to find 11k votes" Trump asks Georgia election officials to 'find' votes during call with Sec. of State "Pence needs to do the right thing" Trump again pushes Pence to do the ‘right thing’ and refuse to certify vote
