Why is my mom afraid to put a Trump sign in her Shadyside front yard? (law, office)

The left is unhinged

Once again, it's the right planning to abduct and assonate government leaders. It's the right marching into places like Charlottesville chanting "the Jews will not replace us."

Oh, that's another thing about the leftists and their definition of socialism. They love to point out how the police are a great example of socialism yet they want to eliminate the police. I thought they were for socialism!

I could also say:

^ In case you haven't noticed the Republicans have shifted much further to the right in recent years while the Democrats have only slightly stepped over to the left. As a Democratic Socialist I don't feel as if I have a place in the party.

I thought that was pretty non-controversial -- definitely agree that veterans should get top-notch health care, but it seems that both the National Review, https://www.nationalreview.com/2014/...se-rich-lowry/, as well as the Nation, https://www.thenation.com/article/ar...privatization/, agree that this is a form of socialism.

Not sure you can find much agreement in those two publications.

When you say the right is planning to abduct and assassinate government leaders, to whom are you referring? Gretchen Whitmer?

I know you could. You're all about whataboutism in this thread.



Democrats have done more than slightly slipped to the left. Turn off CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, et al and review their positions now compared to 20 years ago.



You don't even deal in reality and it's not worth engaging in someone who refused delivery of facts.

It's not like the would-be Gretchen Whitmer abductors were a bunch of liberal snowflakes.

And then beg and scream for the police to help them when their situation goes awry.

Lol, the corporate conservative mainstream media built trump and based their day on whatever GOP whining narrative is stated.

Meanwhile the right is living in Jonestown.
