I have a biracial female friend in Chicago (educated at Oxford no less, and is very very liberal, but also very very rational), who naturally has a lot of far left african american supporters who refuse to even enter into conversations with me because I'm white and thus "can't understand where they are coming from". I…

That is exactly what moderate means? I'm not playing with words. CNN isn't moderate… they are profit driven. Anyone who thinks CNN is moderate ignores the fact that they just seek $$$$. I wouldn't say America has been on the road to evil… because frankly I think we've never NOT been evil in some regards if that is how…

Just want to point out I didn't call her "JUST" a moderate, I called her a progressive moderate. I think if kamala had run against Obama she would be a progressive. Considering Hillary/Bernie she sits right in the middle. She is definitely progressive with some of her stances, but a lot of her stances in regards to…

Which never works out for anyone in the end but the few in the leadership of the winning side. I've been to places all across the world in my volunteer work where violent fringes transfer power (via a gun) and it's always the regular people just trying to survive who end up dying and suffering the most, for the…

Exactly. This idea that I can believe in things, and recognize people believe in OTHER things… and thus I have to choose someone in the middle does not mean I'm a sell out. I for example have HUGE issues with corporate influence in politics… but I also realize that corporations exist and we need their support in many…

I'm afraid you and Edmund might not understand that a moderate is someone who has both progressive and conservative policies. It's all a matter of public record. Compared to Feinstein she is a progressive. Compared to Bernie she is a conservative. That makes her a moderate in today's democratic party.

Don't blame me. I'm not the one saying it… they are, and the democrat infighting with Kamala is all on public record.

There are also claims that she's being forced to political purity tests because she's a woman and african american, which other white male democrats haven't had to do… research a bit on it. Its hard because there is definitely a tendency to glorify to some extent those that are even a bit different than the norm (and…

Just some white bernie friends of mine who describe her heritage as an example of what we don't need. Touting things like "Look, after Obama we saw what having a black man in office did to our country. We should be aware of the consequences and not fall down the same trap." to which I replied, "oh you mean the guy…

Yep, I'm truly disheartened to see some of my friends go "Now is the time to rally behind Bernie" as they don't seem to understand their policies are just as divisive to many people as the alt-right. I'm just so sad… and to see some of them even using racially charged language to do it… (not that they are alone, a lot…

Um… I think its more like the democrat acknowledging that there WERE agitators in the crowd. I mean… there fucking were. I don't know about you but I saw people wearing masks and carrying bats and the like while staring down the white supremacists. I know it can be hard to hear, and I definitely understand the…

with symbolism taken from a variety of other cultures! That's how we do it in the west. Take, rebrand, and attack those we stole from!

Divide and conquer tactics used by a select few individuals to ensure they control their own financial and political destinies. Murdoch, Bannon and their ilk are gleefully thanking god (of money and power) for the time they spent studying the East India Company's take over of India. Make them fight each other… and sit…

lol yep. Though really, a quick look at breitbart and the delusion is in full swing. This is all apparently a hoax, or about white genocide… or how this was secretly an antifa attacking the left, or "fill in absurd conspiracy theory here". I mean… We are talking THOUSANDS of likes for each of these absurd fucking…

sad but true.

One of the most sickening things about this is reading breitbart and Fox and seeing how this act of terrorism has encouraged other white radicals. The list of threats, claims that liberals don't know what is coming, that this just proves progressives are easy meat… like seriously… I used to consider myself a fiscally…

He also would fiercely oppose the existence of parties in America and question "why didn't you listen to me??"

I understand the point you make here, and I feel violence is an option… but I wish some on the left would go about using violence in a much different way. I have huge fucking issues with Antifa for example.

I mean, I agree overall… I just sometimes wish Antifa would just sit the fuck back down and wait until the time is right for their sort of acts. So they don't blur the lines for conservatives and provide them with easy material. The problem with fighting fire with fire at this point is ANY gasoline just makes the…
