Unlike Cruz Azul Guy whom I respect despite our disagreements, I would never suggest that McCarthyism is beneath you.

They all got you off the subject. See how they do that? Whataboutism.

I asked Cruz to show me one single piece of proof that it was white supremacists that torched anything. He cant. So he changed the subject.

Frankly, McCarthyism is beneath you, or at least it should be.
Almost every post he makes is a dog whistle with some so blatantly repeating the credo or main talking points. I’m tired of dancing around what is pretty obvious to anyone paying attention. Sorry to offend but I’m just calling a spade a spade here.

Show me proof "white supremacists" burned anything down. Oh...you can't.

That is the narrative the Left is going with. Blaming it all on whites/"white supremacists". There isn't a single piece of proof. Nope, it is all Left-wingers who torched the Cities.

He is not defending them. He is saying that attributing the unrest to them is a canard. No one has shown any evidence of white supremacists being involved, including you.

I have long contended it was a collection locally grown kooks that don’t fit a left/ right paradigm.

And I don’t see you condemning antifa.

And every time I make a point you disagree with, I support my comment with facts, direct quotes, or copy and paste without edit. Then the discussion ends. Can’t help it if you don’t like being proved wrong.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Exactly. The early narrative that was unequivocally pushed was it was "white supremacists" (I guess code for "right wingers")


I was like...WUT? There has never been any such proof put forth.

I don’t see any links in the post you started off with and have no idea what you’re talking about. I don’t recall you actually having ever made a point. I don’t interact with you much because I find most of your stuff to be banal and trite, and makes no sense. And I’m being MN nice when I say most.
