Right wing fascists marching in the streets. Pulling Americans from their homes in the middle of the night. Kidnappings and disappearing. Nope not violence.
Resisting any of that? So much for the tolerant left.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Remember that a few days before the Kirk shooting, right wingers started to push the narrative that being Trans should count as a mental disorder and Trans people shouldn't be allowed to own guns.
Remember that within minutes of the shooting, talking heads (and some officials) started claiming that the shooter was Trans. And when that was disproven, they started claiming that the bullets had Trans messages on them. When that was disproven they dredged up an old roommate who is Trans.
Remember that within hours of the shooting, the FBI pulled down their domestic terrorism stats page.
This is the next target. They're constructing a narrative that Trans people and their allies are dangerous lunatics, and should be the next group rounded up and put in death camps.
Bullshit
The shit of bulls.
NPR with that gold star Integrity® intact. 🤦🏽♂️

I don't care if they never sleep with men.
I care a lot when they kowtow to corporate and MAGA pressure.
Ohsweetie. That's not just "for the lesbians", you know. Also, most everyone else knows that "kowtow" is racist AF. 🥲
I was told the reason the second amendment is needed is in case of a tyrannical government
Americans romanticize the violence of the past. But they refuse to allow talk of violence as a path forward. Destruction of property was righteous when they threw tea in the harbor but it's wrong to talk about it now.
Bull.Shit.
But now we know what they fear, so that's what we need to do more.
I get looking at terrorism as a simple data point and then saying left wing terrorism is on the rise. When there's more violence then it's indicative of underlying problems.
But most of the time the conversation implies people need to clean up their act. Politicians must stop using charged language. People must chill out.
In that vein, I'm curious how much left wing violence is real. When people are getting shot down for trying to get abortions, getting put on lists...
That's like playing half a chord progression.
But when you fight back, that's also a terrorism. Hitting the bully is still violence, and can't we all just chill?? Lmao
Bullfuckingshit. Also, leftist violence is typically defensive and protective against violent fascists. So if it’s increasing it’s because so is fascism.
A report from Trump and gang. More fact-free bullshit to feed their propaganda mills.
