My god you’re a dense fucker.
Of course your biased and irrational self would say that. Normal people would be more concerned with hysterical claims that the US is the fourth Reich and not the rebuttal.
Let’s say you are correct and Trump, like every Republican president starting with Lincoln, is omg!!1! literally Hitler. Why do you waste your time on a message board instead of planning an insurrection to liberate the nation?
What in heaven’s name are you talking about?
I used to think you were just another lying asshole, but now you’ve exposed yourself as a totally brainless dolt. Ot perhaps a visitor from an alternate universe where American liberals really are the caricatures your ilk pretends them to be.
What in heaven’s name are you talking about? Did some Doper here advocate violence? Is it Heather Heyer whose violence has twisted up your panties; arrogantly standing still like Maoist scum and thereby denting James Alex Fields’s bumper?
Is it still Yvette Felarca that has you so upset? How many days did Big Strong Nazi have to spend in ICU after Ms. Felarca, despicable and violent anti-Nazi that she is, gave him a gentle shove?
And even if we stipulate that Ms. Felarca is violent scum that should spend the rest of her life in solitary confinement for that gentle shove, so what? I’m sure you’re happy to brand as “outliers” the thousands—no, millions—of horrid and despicable people on your team; why do you think one shove by Ms. Felarca invalidates all the truths that “liberals” are trying to pound into your tiny stupid head?
And I gave you a homework assignment: Find three posts by octopus that even pretend to portray you as an objective seeker of justice for anyone other than your beloved Nazis and the other hateful people on your team. Can’t do it, hunh?
That’s a lot of delusional speculation you got there. I wonder how’d you react to “have a nice day!?”
Seriously, there should be 0 controversy, for the rational at least, with the notion that fundamental civil rights are important to uphold. Nowadays, that’s so-called hate speech I suppose.
“You just keep thinking, Butch, that’s what you’re good at!”

Talk of delusional! Who exactly has come out against fundamental civil rights? (Besides Trump and his hateful supporters?)
Nobody’s trying to deny your Nazis the right to spout hateful speech through their barf-holes. And AFAICT even you’re not denying the right of sane humane people to demonstrate against the Nazi barfings.
The reason you’re being disparaged in the thread is your twisted understanding of reality. You babble on and on and on about protecting the rights of your Nazi friends—which rights were never in danger—while ignoring the serious real injustices and deprivations of civil rights in this country due to the actions and votes of you and your ilk.
There. Use your browser’s zoom function to enlarge this post; re-read it carefully; and stop spouting the same lies over and over in this thread. We don’t expect any show of real intelligence from you, but at least stop repeating the lies that have already been pointed out.
An autocratic regime would remove the US from the board.
1/7 of your post is somewhat honest. That’s an improvement. You people do the same dishonest method each time a poster disagrees with the approved point of view.
- You deliberately lie about the point of view being presented.
- You construct strawman versions of the argument.
- You resort to name calling in an attempt to discredit the poster and by extension the argument.
- You extrapolate to ridiculous extremes reasonable statements. These extrapolations are either deceitful by design or a product of a brain that isn’t quite functional.
- You get frustrated and just spout profane gibberish.
Ignorance fought!
It’s really, really, really weird that free speech is targeted for these ridiculous tactics yet calls for violence aren’t. Since we live in a fascist, authoritarian state now according to asahi don’t you think a bit more caution about advocating violence against the “regime” is called for?
eta. Here’s some token virtue signalling. Nazis are evil. Now can I join your club?
Well, octopus is clearly just in a stimulus/response phase, so whatever chances there were of insight from him are suitably diminished, if they ever existed at all.
Cite? I think this is a lie.
Liar.
I call despicable people “despicable.” OK, we’ll give you credit for this one.
Liar.
Who’s frustrated? Do you think any of us have any real hope of pounding sense into your thick skull? We prod you because it amuses us.
So. 4 out of 5 of your guesses were wrong. Even with Affirmative Action giving automatic extra credits to white-skinned right-wingers, you still get a failing score.
Bravo, cephalopod! Let’s see how you do on some of the other “secret hand-shake” signals:
- What do you think of separating asylum-seekers from their children at the border?
- Tell us what you really think about Flint, Michigan’s drinking water.
- Trump has proposed an easy way to further reduce taxes on beleaguered billionaires without Congressional approval. What do you think of that?
- How do you feel about voter ID as proposed by GOP state governments?
- How do you feel about right-to-work laws?
- The Trump Administration has stripped several regulatory agencies to bare bones. Do you approve of that?
There. Six innocent questions, with no implication that you’re racist.
Or maybe you prefer the “club” you’re already in.
Odd, that your mind always goes there. Very, very odd and very, very telling.
You have not done your homework – back to your room, young man!
Oh, it is doing much more than flirting - it is actually sucking on its cock.
But that’s okay because it’s dressed up like a Roman Catholic priest from rural Pennsylvania.
McCarthyists must just be squirming in their pantaloons." If you thought we were something the first time out just get a load of us now! "
Yeah, we don’t recover from this: the damage is permanent and catastrophic. We will lurch from red state presidents to blue state presidents and the other side will never accept the other side’s president.
While we may still just be in the flirtation stage, we’ve gone well beyond any precedent in at least a century.
Has any other President resorted to lies with even a fraction of the frequency of this President? Ryan and other top GOP leaders are also blatant liars. No other President surrounded himself with criminals the way Trump does. Other Presidents made questionable pardons at the ends of their terms; Trump is using his pardon power to discourage testimony. Trump is making extreme use of executive orders. Increasingly the GOP is trying to rig elections. Trump and his sycophants are behaving exactly as the leaders of banana republics do.
Increasingly police are being called on blacks and other minorities for no other reason than their minority skin color. This seems like a scary development, and is probably a direct result of Trump’s election.
I’m also worried about permanent damage. But I think your emphasis on “red state/blue state” is misplaced. If the political schism followed state borders, there might be solutions!
California had almost as many Trump voters as Texas and Florida, way ahead of 4th-place Pennsylvania.
Florida had about as many Clinton voters as New York; Texas was in 4th-place, way ahead of Illinois.
If this is true, how are you able to post this on a public message board?
Is this true? or is it just that with cell phone, social media and the new awareness of the BLM movement there is more attention to what had been going on for decades?
I had thought it was more the latter, but since I’m not black and so can’t personally to gauge the ebb and flow of discrimination I may be mistaken.
Crimes based on skin color and religion (non-Christian of course!) are on the rise. I’m having trouble with links right now, but they’ve increased significantly over the last 3 years. Anecdotal comments from minorities reflect that low level harassment has also increased.
Red/Blue is just short hand for the cultural divide of the two America’s. The fact is that what one side views as positive’s about America, the other side views as problematic, if not evil. Acceptance of gay marriage was a wedge issue for red state Americans, but a source of pride for blue state Americans. Rejection of science and promotion of gun culture are traditional values for red America.
Because “authoritarian” != “totalitarian.”
