The far left has been just as polarizing. Come on, Man! It’s not an answer to say, he made me do it.

It takes at least 2 sides to be divisive. Either side could acquiesce but chooses not to do so. Democrats are just as divisive as Trump imo.

4 fucking years to be better. The bar could not have been any lower. Sad.

That’s dumb. The idiots right wingers are treated as idiots. Antifa idiots should be treated as idiots too, not viewed as protectors from idiots. Don’t buy that liberal talking point. What garbage. You should be denouncing and calling both extremes idiots, not defending one side.

I think that is as close to a list that there is for domestic terrorist groups. My son says that Antifa isn't really an organization with members. It is more like an idea. He compared it to capitalists. There isn't a group of capitalists. It is just an idea that people adhere to and agree with. That leads to some problems. Either what Trump said is empty and no action can ever be taken against them because it isn't a real organization or...he can declare whomever he doesn't like as antifa and then tap their phone, arrest or whatever he can do against anyone he chooses. Any way you slice it, it cannot be a good move with a positive outcome.

was pointing out your statement wasn’t accurate, KKK and aryan nation have a different distinction. My point about Trump is he emboldens the white supremacists with his rhetoric and he rarely denounces them (see Charlotte). It is not known for sure who is coming from outside and making things worse at the protests, my guess is a mix of both the white supremacists and antifa. The seems to be evidence of both.

I haven't seen him embolden white supremacists. With Charlotte, I saw him say that there was good and bad on both sides (or at least that is what I heard/interpreted). As I understood it, it he was referring to the political stance regarding whatever they were arguing about. The media took things out of context which changes the meaning. With this situation, he is fanning the flames.

we can take it offline if you want, no more discussing him here, need to play by the rules.
 
this guy articulates how I feel about all this better than I ever could. it’s a bit long but worth the watch

 
What I find remarkable about this is a very large number of people demonstrating peacefully days after the incident on a freeway closed to traffic relative far from any stores or anything. The looters and antifa and crazy ass truckers get all the press, but the real story is the obviously large number of people of all colors shapes and forms protesting this guy's death.
