A bunch of unarmed crazy people who Capital police practically invited in were ever really a threat
We all know that are current VP was bailing out hundreds of people who were burning down and looting businesses and attacking people during non violent riots during most of 2020.

It's becoming obvious that this site, is over taken by right wing extremist. I come and have a look every now and then. There are still a few brave souls that push against the right wing extremists, they try but it really seems to be futile. Any discussion here that points out major flaws in their thinking is locked to end those conversations. Good luck to you all.

Some of you need to step away from FOX news etc. for a few weeks an search out non biased sources for your information. You are consuming too much propaganda and you are not being informed fully, you only hear what they want you to hear. You are parroting their propaganda. Please think for yourselves a little bit and turn off the hate and fear mongering sources.

Democracy means the people rule.
Demo: People Kratos: Rule

Whichever one sought the greatest amount of government control & authority over the citizens would be the biggest threat to that.
At this particular time, that would be the Democrats.
But, then, some of them even identify with Socialism...So...

Democrats. They want to tax the hell out of hard working Americans and then give free handouts to invaders.

They want to lock up Christians and non democrat supporters while releasing rapists, murderers and pedophiles onto the streets.

They want to ban the second amendment while setting up drug shops across the nation.

They want to take away parents rights and confuse the heck out of the kids in school.

They want to deny Asians and Whites admission into colleges despite having top scores while allowing idiots to study just because they can throw a ball.

They want to destroy any Black person who dares goes against the democrat line. Right now, I've been seeing a pattern. If they are Black and support GOP or Trump, then all of a sudden they are antisemitic. Notice how they didn't say a thing when Ice Cube talked about his song "No Vaseline", or how Louis Farrakhan will talk about good Jews and satanic Jews.

And the same thing can be said about those who listen to the MSM. Who have been caught many many times lying and passing propaganda continuously. And have made serious attacks on people just make a story even before all the information has been presented.
Quit suckling on the MSM pig's teat and think for yourselves as well, that milk went sour a long time ago.

Glad to see C-D isn't a echo chamber for either side. It's great to see open discussion, and just because people don't think as you do, does it make them extremists. That is the problem with being in an echo chamber...it tends to make one think their way of thinking is the only way.

In reality, there might be a few extreme right individuals, a few anarchists, and a few leftists. The rest of us, are just moderately leaning left or right of center.

There are just as many left wing extremists in here as there are so-called right wing extremists. Being an obvious lefty you are blind to it though. How about they step away from CNN, MSNBC, etc.? Talk about propaganda machines!

There is nothing hateful about telling the truth nor is it fear mongering it's about awareness. I have seen far more hatred from the left than I have seen from the right!

Which happens every day at the inner city level.

We have actual war zones in this country and you’re worried about Trump.

Wake me up when the GOP is daily shooting up their neighborhood.

No party as defined, but extremists in both parties. Anyone who said otherwise is an idiot.
