    Social media is not the problem. that's just the venue, or ...*medium*, to convey thoughts and messages.

    The underlying problem is education, lack of common sense, and misinformation. People are too fucking dumb these days to see what's real and what's not. It's what Tump and GOP have perfectly exploited over the past 10 yrs, beginning with the Birtherism bullshit. Seeing how positively morons reacted to that shit and the wall nonsense just made the party lean into even more.

    It's why CNN's fact checking during debates, or other news networks cutting out from live action to stop reporting obvious lies is important.

    Trump realized this was happening and started attacking the press even more explicitly.

    Interesting. I definitely have as many democrat friends filling my feed with meme's all day as I have republican friends doing the same thing. Personally I don't know how they find the time to do it?

    I already responded the that. I still don't trust her....at all. And it has nothing to do with racism. Call it whatever you'd like.

    This is the part that makes no sense to me. At least Antifa is smart enough to wear masks. These morons are committing felonies in full view of all the cameras.

    I call it racism and I don't like calling anything racist but have no choice when it's that blatant . You're a white conservative male who said our first black female VP is pretending to be black...that has nothing to do with trusting her...that's a reference to her ethnicity

    its amazing how you only engage with me when tou think you have a “oneup” on me or think you are punking me.
    As if i post every thought i have on here?

    ive said many times i dont condone the violence of any side. But you only read my posts that fit your narrative and you dismiss the ones thst dont....

    JESUS CHRIST.

    maybe if you asked questions instead of assume and condemn, id take you more seriously with your engagements.
    All you do is judge. You don't ask questions or give benefit of the doubt of the fact that you don't know what im thinking.

    id reevaluate how you engage with me if you ever want something more than a chest pounding berating....

    you are no better than those who get all emo with a headmine meme. You read one comment from me and assume that's all there is...

    Open the book for once and read whats inside instead of judging me by my cover or title.

    Ive said many times the right and patriot boys are as much of the problem as the exteeme left. Some people only choose to read what they dont agree with and focus on thst instead of the facts...


    This is gonna be fun when i dig up a bunch of quotes where i say both sides are wrong and the crickets will commence without anyone saying they were incorrect of their assessment of this summer in here.

    That guy wore his work badge...lord almighty, that's the intelligence of the people we're dealing with.

    Hey I know, I'll wear identification on me as I break into the US Capitol building, what bad can come of that!?

    Then don't cite her race, ethnicity, or sex. Just say you don't trust her. Cite actions.

    im not disputing posters including ABM has said controversial things. Hell i have.
    Im discussing this one instance regarding equal condemnation of breaking into government offices.

    im pretty sure ABM was called a racist for saying the violence isnt right. Now maybe that claim was based on other things and this was the icing on the cake. Not sure.
    Ill dig it up.

    how have you been btw?

    Simple question, don’t you get tired of defending yourself? Over and over and over? I don’t support the proud boy..... I don’t support Trump....... I’m not a racist....... I mean it seams there is a steady attack towards you in this forum. Curious why that is? Why do you feel you need to defend yourself, or more importantly, why do all these people claim this about you? Simple question.

    Yet you trusted Trump enough to vote for him *twice*.

    I think I know what I'll call it. Rhymes with "schmead schmind schma schmand"

    you know, I have no idea wtf happened there.

    Should have said rhymes with "head stuck in the sand". Somehow my rhyming skills lead my brain to think "squirrel!"

    It's hilarious. I think it's safe to say they're likely the anti-masker "don't tread on mah freedom" types. In other words, if it wasn't for a global pandemic in which everyone is wearing a mask, they might be wearing a mask to protect their identity. It's art. It's poetry.

    well when a mess needs cleaning up sometimes it gets messier before it gets clean.

    he brought it to light which made it look worse because it is exposed.

    The left twists news too.
