Leftists decided punishing Democrats was more important than the rights of marginalized people living in the US, so now we have Trump. Thanks leftists. You're the reason we will have concentration camps again.

That will never happen. He could come out today saying Black Lives Matter, abortion is a human right, trans people deserve respect, and immigrants are welcome and they would just cheer.

They aren't following him for his views. They follow him because he is their cult leader.

Slip and do what? Hit the nuclear button this time? He's "slipped" nearly every day. Nothing changes.

Bad actors are preying on impressionable young people through social media everywhere. This is a far more widespread issue than the internet pedophiles our parents were afraid of. Kids are getting radicalized by hostile states or even just manipulated via psyops by these countries to act in ways counter to the stability of their own countries.

Honestly, if I had a kid, I wouldn't let them touch social media until adulthood.

Umm, maybe because they killed, raped, and kidnapped ~~hundreds~~ thousands of innocent Israeli citizens. Hamas deserves to be and must be wiped out. But innocent Palestinians don't deserve to suffer.

In America if they saw a brown man pinning down a dude with a knife, the cops would shoot the brown guy.

Not entirely. Congress and the Supreme Court are filled with his sycophants.

Palestinian extremists. Not just Palestinians, but yes the extremists have a history of doing this in every country that took them in.

However realistically that's probably just an excuse. They just don't want to have to pay and provide resources to house a bunch of refugees and the first country that agrees to take them in will probably be required to house the majority of them and permanently since Israel probably won't let them go back.

The extremists don't help the matter though.

They ... held the exact same stance as Trump currently holds

This lie is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

Yes Democrats support Israel but there is no instance where they called for literal starving and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by pushing them out of their country.

Their goal was and has always been a two-state solution. Trump's current stance is a one-state solution where the other state becomes a golf course.

I highly doubt the genocide as we are seeing it today would be happening if Harris had won. This plan at the very least wouldn't have been proposed by the American president and received a rubber stamp of approval by the US government. We would have likely ceased aid to Israel by now and mobilized the UN to inflict other penalties.

Let me guess, you didn't vote in 2024, and *removed*ed about Democrats the entire time. How's the Trump regime working out for you kreskin?

almost universally want authoritarianism and dictatorships? those are far right positions

These are both far right and far left positions. That's what I'm saying.

The left tends to want some flavour of socialist democracy.

Yes, the _center_-left wants this. The **far**-left wants revolutions and purity tests, burning down the system, and leaving minorities to die and fend for themselves while they wage their "class war".

What far right labels as far left

Why would you depend on the far right for any kind of accurate definition? Bernie is not far left in reality. He is center left.

Yes pro authoritarian far left that's basically communism.

I'd say it's the stages before communism. When the authoritarians have to take all the power to give it to the people. The problem is that is impossible. Once the authoritians have taken all the power, they never give it up. So real communism doesn't exist and can never exist because it always requires some type of revolution and central organization after the effects of the revolution. And that central power will never give up that power.

So just because they haven't reached "true" communism doesn't mean they are all of a sudden now on the "far-right".

Today's tankies are still considered far-left.

You can be both pro-authoritarian and far left. In fact, that's kind of the definition of far left.

Tankies have almost nothing in common with the far left

This doesn't make sense because tankies _are_ the far left. What you're thinking of as far left is actually center left.
