I loved it when America did political violence on German soldiers. Today's shooter is a patriotic hero engaging in America's most noble pastime, shooting Nazis.
This guy apparently was a registered Republican tho
Republicans are allowed to shoot Nazis too
I mean, they were largely against it the first time too. They were the opposition pushing isolationism or the oligarchs launching the Business Plot.
If only they’d oppose it now
That is not the way we do things here in the US.
That's why there's such a huge nazi problem
There really isn't. People like to invent nazis to shoot at, but in reality, the number of actual nazis is incredibly low. I don't even think Trump qualifies, he's just a narcissist who doesn't look gift horses in the mouth, provided it puts him on the podium. He's still dangerous, but not in a Hitler way.
If trump encouraged Jan 6th to happen, when you say things like this does it encourage violence?
Are you implying that MindTraveler has a crowd of rowdy far-right insurrectionists lurking outside the capital building?
No, I am saying that you guys constantly talk about how trump is going to end america and if Jan 6th was encouraged by trumps rhetoris how is this different?
MindTraveller doesn't have a crowd of rowdy far-right insurrectionists lurking around the capital building. That's how.
I mean, did you read what I said or what?
I'm not a he, I'm nonbinary. They/them please.
I care. You can leave this one.
You keep making unclear comments. And you really dont care, you just pretend.
I'm going to have to ask you to please edit your comment misgendering me.
"racism"? Oh, a confederate boy, are you?
I guess this is worth asking. Do you strongly disagree with the Civil War? There were plenty of calls to violent action then. But maybe you would have told the slaves to "wait longer."
You know, keep the peace. Wouldn't want to be like Trump almost 200 years later.
I dont know what disagreeing with the Civil War means. Is there a case that the civil war was counter productive and shouldnt have happened? Yes. The problem is that you guys are binary thinkers and you are about to freak the fuck out because you wont be able to understand a non basic argument.
"counter productive," interesting choice of words.
Perfect non-answer, by the way. 10 out of 10.
Personally, I think that emancipation was good, even if a war had to be fought for it. I don't know if this is a hot take or not, but I just don't like slavery that much. I'm very binary that way: slavery bad, freedom good.
Would you like to amend your non-answer, Mr Politician?
If your nuance is "there should have been peace talks," there were. Your strategy failed. What now?
I dont know what your question is. Is your question- "Should the civil war been fought?"
