    Yes, because Trump supporters would never do anything like that.

    Didn’t say that, but I will say the evidence of tears and tantrums seem to be skewed in the other direction. Posting images of purple haired people with horn rimmed glasses and tears streaming down their face isn’t exactly an indictment on what most would consider the average Trump supporter.

    Yes, but the implication seems to be one sided, but it's not... we both know that both sides are often somewhat biased and their memes/pictures etc., can be very pointed, almost to the degree of being ridiculously exaggerated/over the top.

    But that's the age in which we live in, JB...the anonymity of social media transforms some people into wannabe internet badasses because no one is held accountable. If one side can dish it out they should conversely also be willing to take it when it's thrown at them.

    Another moment when his bull shit exceeded his lies. That one would have gotten him congratulated by Fred Trump.

    Nobody here is defending the Nazis in your head.

    No, those are what douche bags look like.

    Nazis systematically murdered upwards of 20 million people while trying to take over the world. Look it up sometime.

    They really, REALLY aren’t the same thing as fat conservatives LARPing in the streets. You are cheapening what actual holocaust victims and other Nazi victims were put through by running around claiming everyone who hurts your feelings is a Nazi. Find a new name for the people who make you butthurt. They aren’t Nazis.

    Oh, B.S., study the history of Germany and understand how the Nazis came to be in the first place (hint: focus on the post-WWI & pre-WWII time period). Ever heard of The Sturmabteilung? "Look it up sometime."

    Just stop. If you weren’t in the military in the 1940’s then you aren’t in some battle against Nazis. Contrive whatever similarities your imagination allows, just because you can draw a few parallels between certain things, it doesn’t make them identical. People draw parallels between leftist behavior and Nazism too, imagine that. But even I know that unhinged leftist censorship and modern day book-burning crybabies aren’t literally Nazis, even though they engage in some of the same behaviors.

    Funny you should bring this topic up. I have studied the pre-WWII Sturmabteilung.

    First, I ignore all verbal spin and lables used by all special interest groups, including the Sturmabteilung. All that talk is used to mislead the uninformed. And to make their marionette followers happy. Lies and selected half truths to push their agenda.

    When I compare special interest groups to the methods, actions and mental state used by Sturmabtielung. The special interest group's methods, actions, and mental state that mirrors the Nazi Sturmabtuelung would be ANTIFA.

    Most of them are going to nearby countries and not home.

    Don't insult my intelligence. I'm smarter than you. Remember this when you address me. What did the Nazis look like before they became the Nazi machine? They look like those people walking around with white power symbols... You're in here defending them... imagine... You're probably a Chud too

    Something about arguing with fools... You'll just go on the ignore pile. Your posts literally never add one intelligent thing to the discourse.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    That doesn't even make sense. In fact, your attempted table-turning better fits what you were originally complaining about, calling anything you don't like "Nazi."

    "How dare you call yourself smarter than me, that's classic Nazi."
