I'm Beginning to Fear that the Left is Going to Snap

I'm a liberal.





BOO!!!!

The right HAS snapped. Had I but known back in 2001 that anti-terrorism was like crack for them.... Now everyone's a terrorist... For the last 8 years they've been stockpiling guns and ammo for the coming apocalypse... and their much wanted Civil War-- and now, you can't even really tell who's really batsh#t and who's just a right wing Russian troll-- because they embrace the insane Russian troll fake news nonsense. F###'n Alex Jones is their Walter Cronkite, and the free press is the enemy of the people-- Total insanity.

And then we have these floaty third party people with no ability to really gauge a situation say "both sides are bad... the crazy fake news Alex Jones extremists... AND the people who want affordable healthcare and equality.... ALL equally bad", so let's throw our vote away on someone who has zero chance of winning.

As a guy who doesn't believe in throwing his vote away on instant losers, nor seeks to support batsh#t xenophobic racist insanity... There is but ONE choice. And it's not perfect. But it's the only choice. And that's Democrat. And that's coming from a guy who started as Independent.

Wow. I feel for you, I really do. You have been sucked in so deep to the predictive programming being spewed through every possible media outlet, that you truly believe that there is a lick of difference between the Republican dogma and the Democrat dogma.

Oh sure, there is a thin veneer, mostly held together by endless repeating of mission statements and empty platitudes. For the Democrats it is how they care about everyone so deeply, and are so tolerant of every lifestyle. Give up your "fair share" so that the government can provide care to people who can't take care of themselves.
For the Republicans it is how important the Bill of Rights is, and that individual freedom is the most important thing. They are supposedly for smaller government and less meddling into state rights.

In the end, it is all just empty words meant to appeal to the masses. The election cycles come and go, and new Democrats and Republicans are shuffled in and out of office. They rile up the people, telling them that the "left" is the enemy, or the "right" is the enemy. Endless scandals on both sides, with each side saying the other is lying, or it is "fake news". All the while legislation gets passed secretly as riders in bills that themselves are not even fully read before being passed.

They constantly give themselves more while at the same time demanding that we work harder for less and less each year. We have no say in how they will ultimately spend our taxes, which end up developing mass murder technologies that are deployed in the never-ending battlefield that is the Middle East. No matter what administration is in charge the U.S. is constantly bombing civilians in sovereign nations to pieces, while saying that they are protecting us. I don't know about you, but it is clear that this diabolical and sinister current state of the world is a manufactured one, built from the ground up over many years by the richest and most powerful bloodlines in the world.

The Democrat and Republican parties are two heads on the same snake, which is slowly but surely slithering its way to a dystopian world of complete totalitarian and oligarchal control.

Face it. Many that were left have become Trumpers. Their common sense and rationality finally kicked in and they have seen the light! If you're still left, your daft, Imo.

I'm neither right or left and if its one thing i noticed about the left,they have common sense and they still have their free will,morals and integrity..and that's what counts,and that's fact.

They lose because their message became the sjw message of hatred against ordinary white folks, and the desire to socialize everything.

The solution is easy. Pull back the message from the extremes. Include regular white people again. Save the socialism for only the things they want it on most.

Its so #ing simple. But the ideology has become so radicalized that they literally cant adjust their platform. They are in their own way of success.

Have you considered the possibility the powers that be want you to believe this?

The narrative of the far right is one of constant fear and loathing.

Scared people are easier to control.

Fear is the repub bread and butter.

Do NOT pity these people - that would be a huge mistake.
Far left radicals are violent communists - otherwise known as Progressives. They need to be trampled into the annals of history once and for all.

But look at the life style we are missing?
That of old USSR. Venezuela, China, Cuba, Noth Korea....... love those 50's cars, and only able to buy bluejeans and toilet paper from the black market.

No wonder people sign up for communism. All for the promise of fake security. How did that work out for the USSR? Venezuela?

Dude, I'm a white guy and I never felt hate from any SJW message. That's something right wing racists say because they get angry about being asked to be decent to people. The get angry about equality issues... Everyone I know who feels that so-called hatred toward white people are closet racists.

But deny that there is a culture / infiltration of violent Jihad among some refugees?

YEP. White dude REPORTING IN.

White as the COME. The whole SJW is overblown and MAINLY limited to ISOLATED incidents that the radicalized right-wing racists flail around histrionically, FOAMING at the mouth over.

ZOMG! There's a WAR against us good-natured wholesome white people!

People need to get over themselves and acting like because they are "white" they're so important that everyone hates them.

Them:

Everyone HATES me because I'm white!!!

Me:

No, everyone hates YOU because you're an ass.

What a depressing thread. The left is waiting for the right to snap, too.

This thread is depressing because the focus is on fear of one another; how are we ever going to progress so we can take on the real enemy--the ultra-wealthy? They laugh as we fight amongst ourselves, while they take more of a proportion of the world's wealth than most of the people combined.

They will "radicalize"?

I thought they all hated guns. Conservatives own (usually many) guns. It would be a short and quick uprising. What are they gonna do, throw their bongs and hurt feelings at them I suppose.

a reply to: Dfairlite

The only good side is the vast majority of the people talking crazy on Twitter and reddit are cowards and would never do anything about it in real life. It's the small percentage of legit nutcases that are the problem.

Hey Defairlite. Haven't you heard yet? The dems on ATS consider this a win! I posted my below pic in another thread making sure I understood the definition of a win. Can you please tell me if my reading comprehension and visual indicator comprehension is off? Is this a win to you or another dem loss?

a reply to: face23785

More accurately, the people with all the guns are pointing at those without guns and saying those people want a war.

The people who have been arming themselves to the teeth, pointing at people who have no interest in guns, accusing them of wanting war.

And if I understand correct, those people with all the guns want all the people without guns to know how quickly they would kill them all if it comes to war.

Remind me again... who is it that wants war?

a reply to: spiritualzombie

If we wanted a war it would've happened by now. Did I miss it?

Is that like the only people who have any problem with any gay issues are secretly gay? Did you come up with that all by yourself?
