The left and right both have their share of fanatics on the fringe. Both sides try to portray extremists on the other side as mainstream. This is the mess that our two party system has gotten us into.
On the left there’s antifa, abolish Ice, and government-sponsored heroin injection sites.
On the right there’s “blood and soil,” neonazis, beatings at Charlottesville, and the claim that the “caravan” of starving children from Honduras is actually full of Isis fighters sponsored by George Soros…and the 56 yr old stripper who wants to “make America great again” while living in a van with his mom down by the river.
None of these ideas/policies are mainstream with educated, moderate liberals and conservatives. Anyone who portrays them as such is stoking the fire of identity politics and doing a disservice to our country.
People on Caravan refused Mecico’s offer for benefits. So they have a choice to settle in Mexico and have a good life there to work, go to school. Since they refused Mexico’s offer, it seems that they want an economic immigration instead of refugee.
We should make the criminal justice system stronger. Jail these illogical criminals so that good people can stay away from harm.
Also maybe ban those journalists who don’t report facts and make journalism a career of writting one sided opinion piece. Some people have no ability to differentiate facts from journalist’s personal opinions.
What is the point? I go find more evidence so you can pretend it doesn’t exist. You already proved you don’t care about info presented. You’re accusing me of not considering info. Go ahead and present some actual info. All you did is take one small quote and pretend it represents everything said in the statement. Then you pretend it disproves several points made when the quote only addresses one.
You made a claim, I contested it. You provided some info that said the opposite of what you claimed as evidence of your view. I pointed it out. Now you say there’s no point finding information that will prove your point as I would just discount it. Not sure how you can convince someone they are wrong with that kind of statement
These people have weak and unstable minds. They are easily persuaded by the rage and the fake emergency peddled by media and politicians including Trump.
Yeah, media can be bad. Don’t believe in media blindly
Also don’t believe your professors and teachers blindly like a kindergarten kid. Even a professor or a teacher can have his or her own agenda, same as media.
OTOH there’s a lot of coded language that Trump uses that promotes anti-semitism. E.g. his use of the terms nationalist and being against globalists (which is a dog whistle for anti-semitism). There is also him promoting anti-semitic behavior such as just yesterday when the led chants of “lock him up” against George Soros. Trump’s hards are dirty in this. He has been encouraging behavior that will ultimately lead to events like this with unstable folks
Trump only looks out for himself. I don’t think he cares much about anyone other them himself. Maybe a little for his daughter Ivanka.
He has a pattern of being sympathetic to anti-semitic causes. Look at how he said there were “good people on both sides” when referring to the charlottlesville attacks by neo nazis and white nationalists against counter protestors.
