They are, and forever shall be, the minority. They’ve latched onto a figurehead that gives them a sense of empowerment. Said figurehead has also cowed an entire party of spineless cowards into allowing him to do so.
 
But his success will be their own undoing. When he’s gone, their fall will be precipitous. They’ll thrash, and kick, but it’ll be inevitable.
 
 
Speaking of all this, I had a thought. I wonder what the opinion of a former member of this board would be to the rally in SC. One that preached fire and brimstone of the left violating the constitution. How does he feel about his darling party advocating the forced removal of US citizens? What sort of inane handwringing must he be doing in his head?
 
Our founders are rolling in their graves.

Let’s be real here, the world will never truly be rid of scum bags like that. Like you said, they’ll just keep themselves under the radar and wait for the perfect opportunity to come crawling back out of whatever hole they reside.

Trump will inevitably win in 2020. Everyone who understood how private email servers work voted for him in 2016. Everyone who understands that terrorism, censorship, obstructionism, and child exploitation is bad and lower taxes, more jobs, and a better economy is good will vote for him in 2020.

Mao had a quick fix for this sort of situation  
It’s called a “cultural revolution”  
If the Democrats had a spine they would consider it at least

I just hope you’re right…but after reading comments like this, it gives me the feeling that the damage is irreversible…
 
Nobody’s saying not to vote, just that one election isn’t going to beat back the tide of fascism.
Honestly, the only thing I could see is some kind of truth & reconciliation committee, a la post-apartheid South Africa (you could also use the Nuremberg Trials for an example, but that would have to involve countries that are either too scared of us or even more authoritarian than us conducting a fair trial.)
But things aren’t going to go back to “normal” after 2020. They will come for whoever the next Dem president is even harder than they did Clinton or Obama, because one of our two major political parties believes the other one is not allowed to govern, under any circumstances. The fever will not break, because the GOP has every incentive to never let it break.
Do you disagree? Will the Dems taking the Senate and White house (while retaining control of the House) be enough?

It’s worth noting that many of the founders were straight up monarchists(Alexander Hamilton and John Adams being the prime example) and others were perfectly fine with owning slaves so I don’t really think many of them would care much

I’m not asking Trump, I’m asking you. Who are these people you’re saying should “go back to their countries”, and which countries would those be?
If you hate the place you’ve moved to so much, why don’t you go back home? […] If you think you can do better than the white man did when he founded western civilization, why don’t you take what you’ve learned here back to your own countries to try and make them less awful places to live?
Who the hell are you talking to? Ocasio-Cortez? Where do you think she’s from that she can “go back to”?

Debate debate debate good fucking lord you people love to throw that word around, but when it actually comes down to it you’d rather just put your fingers in your hears and scream at the top of your lungs. Trying to debate against someone like you; who believes anything that comes from fucking InfoWars of all places, is a complete waste of time.
 
Much like Kyle, you live in bubble and are content in staying there prattling nonsense about “de ebil liftists”.

Rather than discussing these things here, you’re just spewing slogans and propaganda - that’s not what this thread is for, and it’s not why this thread is here.
 
You aren’t providing any examples of “terrorism”, “obstructionism”, or “child exploitation” that the Democrats have done that would inspire a vote for Republicans in 2020, and you aren’t replying to anyone who points out specific examples of “terrorism”, “obstructionism”, or “child exploitation” that Republicans have done.
 
Instead of talking with anyone else about any of these topics, you just keep calling other people names, and accusing everyone else on the site of being childish or crazy.
 
It’s clear that you hate whatever you’ve decided “the left” is, and you’re such a SJW and so deeply into your own “Identity Politics” and invested in the narrative of “White Extinction” that you are unwilling to co-exist in a thread or on a site that has whatever it is that you’ve decided “the leftists” are.
 
But your continued existence on this site is predicated on your ability to co-exist with others here.
 
Start discussing things, and stop hurling accusations at groups of people who you hate. Stop mocking others - that’s not “discussing things”.

My post was deleted for “Memeing”, but the post that’s just a “Oh no it’s retarded” meme was not deleted for memeing at me.
The left censors because it can’t debate, reason, or adult.
 
Your comments are being deleted because you have been breaking our rules. The censorship that you are running into is happening because you are trying to be a political pundit and are mocking others on a My Little Pony site, posting insane IRL political rants in the middle of threads devoted to MLP art, and ranting like an SJW about your identity politics.
 
Even in this containment thread, where we put up with a lot of shit that wouldn’t be ok anywhere else on the site, you seem to be utterly incapable of any kind of social interaction.
 
Your posts aren’t being deleted because of your ability to debate or reason, or because others “can’t adult” or can’t debate.
 
Your posts are being deleted because you post about how much you hate “the lefts” in a thread devoted to MLP artists and art. Or because you blind link to videos in a thread where that is specifically against the rules, or because you start out conversations with others by labeling them “villains” or “hoes”. And your posts are being deleted here in this thread because we’re fed up with SJWs like you trying to drive everyone who you can’t stand off of the site.
 
This isn’t your hug box. Coexist with others, tolerate other opinions, or leave.
 
You were on this site for months without any problems, then all of a sudden you discovered the Vent thread and started shitposting, and ever since your shitposting has gone through the roof. Maybe you should just go back to ignoring the political stuff on the site and stay out of the Vent thread.
 
Give it a try - it’s worked for others.

They’re a social justice warrior for the right. All they care about is promoting their political agenda, shilling for their identity politics, and whindging about how offended they are that this isn’t a hugbox.

For those who swings the term “SJW” around like a cat or a hammer, gentle reminder that it stands for Social Justice Warrior.
 
Shitposter Star over here is in no way somebody who fights for Social Justice. He fights for the Status Quo.

They are fighting for their own particular kind of social justice. Their own agenda and their own identity politics.
 
As a member of the clergy, “Social Justice Warrior” is literally in my job description - but words and phrases can have two meanings. And you cant be a “warrior” if there isn’t someone on the other side.
 
The problem arises when someone is ONLY a warrior, and when everything they say becomes so weaponized that its reduced to dog whistles, platitudes, and jargon. When they become so radicalized that everyone around them is an enemy, and terms like “left” becomes the worse insult they can imagine.
 
When just being in a forum with people who have different opinions becomes such an offense that it’s all they can talk about, even on other threads with completely unrelated topics.
 
I know “SJW” has a lot of specific meanings, but it’s like “Feminism” - there’s enough history there that you have to pretty much point at the specific kind of “that thing” that you’re talking about, just to narrow down your meaning.
