Cultural Progressivism high water mark

[CBradSmith]

The peak was last Saturday. By Sunday, culture's journey back to primitive tribalism was stymied.

It'll be a long fight, but the pendulum is finally swinging back toward civility.

There's very few things more frightening and hellish than a righteous leftist mob.

Speaking of primitive tribalism.

 

[Ostatedchi]

Speaking of primitive tribalism.

It is. The modern leftist movement is basically an equivalent to puritanical Salem witch trials. I know you'll never see it for what it is. That's okay.

More primitive tribalism from the other tribe.

I know you’ll never see it for what it is.

That’s okay.

I get it. The difference is the I've learned from the lessons of the past. Past conservatives used to be the intolerant ones. But we are now, for the most part.

The leftists are repeating those same errors that used to be part and parcel of the puritanical right.

Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better.

Oh, they still tell themselves they are fighting fascism and intolerance.

Antifa is out there cleaning it up.

 

[Ostatedchi]

The leftists aren't repeating the same puritanical intolerance of the right?

Or just that both sides are equally guilty?

That your team has learned their lesson and are now more tolerant and not engaging in primitive tribalism.

They would do the same here if they ever got total power and banned and confiscated guns like they want to do.

Generally speaking, you are correct.

 

[Headhunter]

I just go with the obvious. A lot of leftists are angry, intolerant a-holes. Like minded people hang out together.

 

[Rdcldad]

trump made the religious right a plank on the platform not the devisive whip that pushed socially tolerant people to the dems

dems respond by doubling down on social justice instead of reaching back to the middle

losing strategy

The reason Social Progressivism won't go further without overt authoritarianism.

Libs are racists, says the party of David Duke and tiki torch-carrying white guys that can't break 10% of the black vote.

Libs are violent, as pipe bombers and mass school shooters wear MAGA hats and their rallies turn into violent mobs attacking dissent.

I'll say it -- such clumsy propaganda only works on the feeble minded. But repeat it enough and they'll parrot it.

Shhhhhhhh. Ignore your eyes. None of that counts.

This is the kinda in-the-box thinking and expression that dooms your party.

You "think" (really, you are only associating, not thinking) just deep enough to make an attempt at a point in the political realm, nothing more.

it’s the party of say it enough it must be true

late dem senator robert byrd says

As a young man, Mr. Byrd was an ‘exalted cyclops’ of the Ku Klux Klan. Although he apologized numerous times for what he considered a youthful indiscretion, his early votes in Congress--notably a filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act--reflected racially separatist views.

Shhhhhhhh. Suspend common sense. Don't look. Discard all the obvious racists that embrace MAGA. Focus on a dead old man that did something before you were born.

Show me Trump embracing racists.

Your fallacy is the in-the-box thinking that this is boiled down to "If A supports B, then B must support A."

You and your side need to grow. You're fooling yourself...and it comes at a huge cost.

 

[Syskatine]

Show me Trump rejecting racists that promote him.

Your fallacy is the in-the-box thinking that this is boiled down to "If A supports B, and A loudly affiliates with B, and B does nothing to distance himself from A, then you should ignore that."

You and your side need to grow. You're fooling yourself...and it comes at a huge cost.

This. I was considered pretty liberal until around 2008. I didn’t change.

I’ve become more liberal, so much so I’m now considered a racist.

Still waiting on this @Syskatine .
With the modern MSM frothy to paint Trump as devil incarnate, you should have no fewer than a half dozen instances of Trump embracing racism.

Straw man. I called him racist?

Off the top of my head, the central park 5 and DOJ housing discrimination settlement. "Good people on both sides" is 3.

Racism is just corollary to his narcissism. Ol' Fred must've been a cruel s.o.b.

That is ridiculously spot on and perfectly describes a few lefty simpletons on here.

"Facts don't matter. He was white, wearing a MAGA hat, and OMG, he was S M I L I N G."
