Criticism of politicians is good. Singling out liberal politicians to make republicans and conservatives look better, which accounts for like 90% of your posts here, and then playing innocent and dumb after, is not good. When you're called out on your both sides equivocation between fascists like Trump and imperfect liberals like Harris, Kelly, Biden, Obama, or others, you never engage.
If Trump wins, which he may, I'll definitely have my rhetorical mistakes and own up to them, like I did after 2016 I was much to cynical about Clinton and handwaved Trump for most of the GOP primary. I've never seen you grow to have any sort of self reflection about continually defending right wing fascists in our own country.

Downplaying sexual abuse of a minor….
It’s incredible how they will circle the caravans just because the person is transgender

https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/ava-kris-tyson-leaves-mrbeast-transphobic-attacks-1235066275/
Just look at this shit. Downplay the victim's age by stating they're 20 now. No mention of the fact that Kris shared revenge porn of a possibly underage Nickelodeon star (but a headline image featuring Kris in front of a Nickelodeon banner, to really rub it in). No mention of the Shadman connection, or the "the only reason to buy a VR headset is to watch loli rape gangbangs" shit that assclown posted on Reddit. Nothing. It's just because people are transphobic, you see? And they wonder why nobody takes them seriously anymore...

Quote:CNN —
An 80-year-old man putting up Trump election signs in his front yard was run over by an ATV driver during what police believe was a politically motivated crime spree in a small town in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The victim was left in critical condition and the suspect was found dead by suicide the next day, according to police.
Local authorities in the swing state condemned political violence in the wake of an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump during an especially tense election year.
On Sunday evening around 5:45 p.m., a 22-year-old man driving an ATV in a Hancock neighborhood stopped in front of a house with multiple Trump election signs posted in the front yard, Hancock Police Lt. David Outinen told CNN.
The 22-year-old ripped the signs out of the lawn, threw them in the street and drove away on the ATV. Shortly after, the suspect returned on the ATV as the 80-year-old resident tried to put the signs back up in the yard. The suspect veered off the road and hit the 80-year-old from behind, Outinen said.
The 80-year-old was transported to a local hospital, where he was in critical condition, police said.

 That's not even what white fragility means! Had the person said, "systemic issues promote white voices on youtube," and the other guy defended it without consideration then that would be be white fragility.
They don't even understand the meaning of these words they feel the need to use and defend.
 we've all had our edgelord ATV pensioner murdering phase
Is this the tolerant and not unhinged left that is not at all like the right?
‘Doesn’t seem politically motivated’ has been seen 2 times in the first 10 posts of the ATV thread.
They are just the worst.

They are also seeming to show concern for the murderer committing suicide afterwards. Kinda strange. Normally murder/suicides get the, "pussy," and "he took the easy way out," treatment.
But maybe we should try to understand his completely non-political reasons for this. I mean, I don't agree with that he did, but I understand.

So it's hard for me to imagine it's worse now than it was then. It just seems pretty normal to me to think most 18-22 year old men in particular are the worst versions of themselves that they'll ever be and still need to get better.

Oh, Netanyahu is doing his shitty speech. That is the reason why they acting like idiots.
Almost as if they want Kamala to condemn their actions.

Gunn got in trouble for disgusting, edgelord tweets that he had already publicly spoken about and apologized for, years before controversy. Ava was actually being inappropriate with a minor.
They're very different situations. If Gunn was caught being inappropriate with minors in a DM or something, it's very unlikely that he would have been hired by DC or rehired by Disney.

Any trans folx trying to defend Chris needs to take a page out of the Trans Mafia book. shutting up is free. Keep clear of the thread.
"It's disgusting to claim these protests are pro-hamas.
