Oh Im fucking angry
5 years ago
Yesterday stands as one of the darkest in American history.
For those that don't know, The Trump Regime, after a Rose Garden press conference, ordered Federal Agents to clear Lafayette Park in Washington DC by force. A crowd that was not violent or looting or at all breaking the law.
So he could stand in front of a church for a campaign video.
Even the church's priest was removed at short notice for this.
Im not a big fan of religion. I am an atheist, but even I feel that a areas of worship, should be left out of politics and people should be free to worship as they see fit.
This is not a simple "Political difference." Reporters were beaten, less than lethal force was used against unarmed Civilians and all without due process. This is, at best, Treason. Treason of the highest order.
Politically Im a centrist. But things like this disgust me to my very core. At this point, if you side with this Regime, you as well should tried for treason or renounce your citizenship and leave this nation.

op
The last month there "Protesters" protesting social distancing.
But thats the issue was we didnt tear gas them enough?
Its clear that nothing you say will convince this person that Trump is the worst human being to ever walk the planet. Even if you show proof that trump is a racist, and hates gays, and hates trans, and takes away their legal rights and probably has that flag we aren't allowed to speak of on FA anymore hanging in his office.
Just block the nutbar and move on. :P
Also, yes, I replied to this comment so that they'd see this and everyone who scrolls around will also see mine too. :P I'll also drop a nice wiki page that contains info about Trump hating on gays, trans, and being an overall racist. I don't feel like finding the exact portions for Comico cause I'm lazy and just don't care.

However the only comment I see fit to respond to is this one (Which is also a compliment, since it's well thought out/formed and not just opinionated) though against it.
Most of it I can agree with as I am no fan of trump (hence why I neither refer to him as 'President', 'Mr.' or even capitalize his name) and did not vote for him, though I won't vote Democrat with the far left extreme options they've had remaining as well as Hillery would have been a horrible choice for other reasons...
But...I can't let one statement stand that you said/go uncontested. "Its clear that nothing you say will convince this person that Trump is the worst human being to ever walk the planet."
No. Absolutely not. The worst human being? I could start with the obvious choice like Hitler, or Stalin, etc as worse because even if he agreed with them completely...he has yet to kill millions of people ordered by his own hand. That statement is an affront to many countries, soldiers, and people who lost their lives all over the world to true dictators and evil people. To even suggest he's comparable to certain mass-murderers is an insult to the families of those who've lost people of such.
That is the one falsehood in that statement that is taken to an extreme (though saying that he hates gays, trans, and anyone who isn't a white male or female is also debatable, but a point that would be harder to prove as it comes down to thoughts...something a lot harder to prove as they have yet to invent a machine that can read minds.
Scrapping that one line though, again, I congratulate you on a well formed and written response/one of the better ones here. My apologies for the disagreement but I feel that someone had to go there.

lmao, your opinion is terrible.
We have too many Law enforcment officers and Military personal that only understand 3 of the amendments. 1'st 2nd and 5th.
In the case of the Trump Regime they only know the fifth because so many of them pleaded it.
This country is heading fast toward a civil war and willfully ignorant people just think "Itll own the Libs"
Now despite Comico's attempt at character assaination and cowrdly blocking, I don't hate them. Its kinda sad
"He started and lives off drama!"
Groups I'd interacted with maybe once or twice? Hence why its so vague and non descriptive and repeated so much in every post. Its kinda sad to be honest. Not to mention the very drama her orginal account was banned for and what she is railing against.
I tried to serve but my eyesight and nervous system are bad so I was disquiified from service
As a skeptic, I encourage criticisms of my opinions but your criticisms have best come with reliable sources.
At this point though its hard to come up with a fact from a reliable source that allows for police to arrest and assault reporters(Or arrest them without charge) given the constitution of the United states that can at all be seen as defensible.

No one is above critism. Despite what the President himself thinks at the moment.
People need to stop listening to media and pick up some damn books on history printed before 2000 to read the truth... I bet most wont though.
So what time was this cleared out?
Any looting at this protest? Any violence? Any proof of any wrong doing in Layfette park?
Is this the America you want to live in?
But
"He fixed America!"
So lets say t was all faked.
THE PRESIDENT ORDERED PEACEFUL PROTESTERS ILLEGALLY FIRED UPON
SO he could make a promo video
You seriously expect a crowd of thousands to dissolve in 120 seconds? Most of the crowd at that point, hadn't even heard the news.
But again just repeat what your over lords tell you to. You have no mind of your own."
The irony, man.
The blanket statement that not immediately doing what the authorities tell you is wrong because muh laws, but then in the same breath accusing someone of not being to think independently?
Wow, dude. Just... Wow.
Meaning if the helicopter looses an engine for any reason. There is zero chance of recovery. Crashing a helicopter into a crowd of people.
People and spinning blades of death unfortunately mix together like a blender -.-
Any and all discourse is always welcome. Hence why even with Comico trying to character assassinate I wont block them.
This page has shown that while you state basic facts, your opposition has resorted to name-calling, finger-pointing, and emotional insults. This will bring more people to agree with you in the long run. A good way to win an argument on a public forum is to just state the facts and let your opponent shoot themselves in the foot.
It scares me because lets say Trump looses in November
How will these emotionally immature people take it? People hated Hillary loosing but she ran a shitty, middle of the road safe campaign.
But imagine poeple that think they somehow theyv'e gone from "winngin for the last 4 years to suddenly looking at a total reversale. Many may act violently because they dont possess the emotional maturity and just lash out like those in this journal
If there is a more chillingly apt microcosm with which to describe the Trump regime, I haven't seen it yet.
ANd now, between him threatening to invoke the insurrection act and declaring a Twitter hashtag to be a terrorist organization, there's the *very* real danger that he can now basically pluck anyone he doesn't like off the street and have them detained indefinitely as an enemy combatant.
If you don't own a rifle, now's the time.
Though, at least now I know who my true friends are.
This month, People protesting police brutality were gassed and beaten so the president could make a campaign video.
One of these things, is not like the other
because who would raise a hand against wingnut saltines?
moonbats are apparently fair game tho lol
such is humanity
i cant believe this is actually happening in real time before our eyes. they are not even trying to hide it anymore. the veil is completely off. and even more i cant believe how many people support this. the same people who are against the big government taking away their freedoms are absolutely on board with these freedoms begin taken away when its on their terms.
i just feel completely hopeless right now
Can't wait till the day when voting comes back around. I'm definitely going to vote him out of office and I hope millions of others will too. We need a real leader for this country, someone who knows what they are doing and someone who cares about the people.
