'Make America Great Again' Marchers, Anti-Trump Protesters Clash in Center City - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Lambeth;52012255]I dunno, I could make the argument that the Trump admin certainly has a lot of tendencies in common with fascists and the Nazis. But pro-trumpists at these events are just idiots, not fascists.[/QUOTE] Governments tend to function rather similarly. [editline]26th March 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Cabbage;52012265]fascistic*. They tend to have fascistic tendencies.[/QUOTE] Being violent to get their way doesn't make them fascists, it just makes them ass holes. Quit throwing that word around so lightly.

[QUOTE=Cabbage;52012265]fascistic*. They tend to have fascistic tendencies.[/QUOTE] I mean that from what I've seen a significant portion of them actually appear to either believe in or support communist ideas of government, which are ironically illiberal.

[QUOTE=Cyke Lon bee;52012516]Governments tend to function rather similarly.[/QUOTE] Yeah the new president seems like a real nimrod.

[QUOTE=soulharvester;52012604]I mean that from what I've seen a significant portion of them actually appear to either believe in or support communist ideas of government, which are ironically illiberal.[/QUOTE] They're a mix of communists and anarchists, usually leaning slightly towards the anarchist side.

The fact y'all retards still have to march to make America great again probably says something about your current administration.

[QUOTE=CreeplyTuna;52011804]Fucking antifa are hurting the cause[/QUOTE] If only they would sit down and have a nice cup of tea with the bigots. Then they could sort everything out. I mean, it's worked in the past so why not try it now?

I mean, it's worked in the past so why not try it now?[/QUOTE] It's hard to sympathize with the people throwing punches out of nowhere Friend, and if you attempt to suppress people with violence, don't be surprised when they retaliate. Like, AntiFa legitimizes the worst parts of the right, that annoys the hell out of me.

[QUOTE=soulharvester;52012811]It's hard to sympathize with the people throwing punches out of nowhere Friend, and if you attempt to suppress people with violence, don't be surprised when they retaliate.[/QUOTE] Okay. But if you suppress people with an ideology dedicated to restricting their rights, don't be surprised when they retaliate as well [QUOTE=soulharvester;52012811]Like, AntiFa legitimizes the worst parts of the right, that annoys the hell out of me.[/QUOTE] It's not antifas' fault that other people are too stupid to separate them from the rest of the left.

[QUOTE=CanUBe;52012815]Okay. But if you suppress people with an ideology dedicated to restricting their rights, don't be surprised when they retaliate as well.[/QUOTE] Antifa don't give a shit about ideology or policy. They only ever care about hijacking protests, breaking shit and assaulting people. I wouldn't be surprised to hear if most social justice advocates absolutely despite Antifa.

[QUOTE=CanUBe;52012815]Okay. But if you suppress people with an ideology dedicated to restricting their rights, don't be surprised when they retaliate as well.[/QUOTE] Not wanting your tax dollars funding practices you fundamentally disagree with is not the same as restricting your rights. I personally have a far different idea of what a "right" is than it seems many people left of myself do, does that justify violence against me?

[editline]26th March 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=soulharvester;52012834]Not wanting your tax dollars funding practices you fundamentally disagree with is not the same as restricting your rights.[/QUOTE] You think that's the extent of alt-rightism? What about being against gay marriage? What about pretending transgender people are mentally ill, and legislating based on that? There is also the issue of their climate change denial, which affects all future generations. [QUOTE=soulharvester;52012834]I personally have a far different idea of what a "right" is than it seems many people left of myself do, does that justify violence against me?[/QUOTE] Depends. You'll have to elaborate on your ideology and who it affects.
