So, you'd be happy if Trump condemned every single liberals for the bikelock leftists?
You call it "deflection" to prevent anyone from comparing the groups and their actions. It's funny how you never want to compare groups you demonize (rightly or wrongly) to any other group.
There have been stabbings and shooting by leftists, so all people on the left are fucking evil and need to be killed.
I hate racists, they suck. HOWEVER, like we've been seeing the last 15 to 20 years, the left has been calling their enemies all the most hateful names as a way of justifying the evil shit the left does.
Watch Tucker Carlson. Liberals label anyone against illegal immigration, disagrees with BLM, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc as Nazis and racists.
You called me a racist simply for pointing out that a Congressman lied twice, at the time, in recent months. That's how easy it is for the left to throw those kinds of nasty labels around.
You of all people know that I have called out violence on the left and that BEFORE CHARLOTTESVILLE the right hadn't done anything close to what the left was doing. However, the moment someone was ran over by a white supremacist in our president's name, the comparison argument became a losing argument. And for whatever reason, you're still clinging to that argument when pretty much everyone across the political spectrum has accepted that that argument is OVER. There are no points of comparison with death because you can't bring someone back from the dead. Now that we're at this point, your "bike lock liberal" argument has basically lost its validity. I was with you criticizing antifa and you know I was. But not now. Until antifa runs someone over or causes someone to lose their life AND THE MURDERER CLEARLY STATES THEY DID IT IN THE NAME OF ANTIFA, this argument is OVER and there are NO comparisons.
Now back to the point of this thread, the president calling KKK members and other white supremacists "good people" directly ties to his desire to execute five innocent black men. As a result, the overwhelming majority of the country is done with him. No amount of derailment by you or anyone else will change that fact and this problem isn't going away just because he got rid of one of the white supremacists in the White House.
I know you condemned the violence on both sides. I saw how your fellow liberals reacted, too.
Liberals claim that whenever one of their own do something bad, such as smashing people over the head with bike locks, it has nothing to do with being liberals. On the flip side, when someone on the right does something bad, all people on the right are guilty. We saw this here by a few liberals, but mainly from Magenta. Magenta and others kept up the "they weren't liberals, there were individuals" bullshit.
The left beat and stomped unconscious and bloodied people laying on the ground because they looked like they could be Nazis.
Professor Eric Clanton (the ultimate bike lock liberal) hit several people over the head with his bike lock. In the process, he fractured the skulls of at least 3 people. The most blatant case was the guy trying to keep everyone from getting violent. Clanton used his bike lock because he knew it would do extreme damage. You would expect that he's smart enough to know that smashing people over the head with that bike lock, that he could kill them.
You fellow liberals purposely set an occupied building on fire to prevent wrong speak.
Your fellow liberals (smugglypuff, to be exact) attacked a retired couple walking their dog because they looked like wrong thinkers.
Let's not forget about the shooting at the Repub baseball practise.
There's been shootings and stabbings by leftists.
If anything bad by the right is done in Trump's name, then anything bad done by the left is done in the name of every liberal politico.
Obama, Hillary, and the rest are a part of this discussion. They played the race/vag card every time they could. Obama race baited Michael Brown and even sent 100 FBI agents to prove it. "HANDS UP, DON'T SHOOT" was proven to be a complete lie but black politicians kept using it.
Where the fuck were all the leftist heroes when their own were committing extremely violent acts, including murder?! They were doubling down blaming the victims or excusing the vile actions of the left in some sort of bullshit way.
More deflection, more derailment and absolutely no accountability. While I agree not enough coverage was shown to those bad acts on the left, you simply cannot compare any of it to the fact that so many white supremacists have been woken up and supported by this president. If deflection and derailment is all you have, then you have lost this argument. If false equivalency is all you have, then you have lost this argument. Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE) said very recently that, "a lot of violence is coming," and he's 100% right. This president has woken up something very disgusting and it has taken over a very important argument in this country; that is the argument for free speech. We need to have a serious discussion on free speech and the way the left is demonizing free speech, but our president has poisoned that argument by helping uplift this white supremacist element. It's one thing to say "liberals are harming free speech;" however, it is an entirely different thing to align yourself with KKK members, neo-nazis and other white supremacist groups to make your argument for free speech. He could've simply said those groups have every natural right to say, assemble and march all they want; but he didn't just say that. He has fully aligned himself with those groups and nothing anyone says now or years from now will remove that stain on his presidency. He did this. He caused this.
