I didn’t call anyone a Nazi. Trump is not a Nazi. Most of his supporters aren’t either. I did use Nazi Germany as an example of societal views changing to the extreme.
Sexual abuse. Not rape. The distinction is extremely important. Now that I know he is only a sexual abuser and not a rapist I support him. A sexual abuser who cheats charities, is a convicted felon, who accepts $30…
Cherry picked facts? Ha. Being a rapist is a cherry picked fact? The difference between me and you is that I consistently apply my morals and ethics. I don’t support rapists and bribe takers for President. I didn’t…
Clearly, they can be convinced of something, just not anything you or I might consider good. Yeah. I should have been more precise. The country deserves what is going to happen.
The one who rapes and lusts after his daughter is the one who has issues. Well, him and the people who support him. Never thought I’d live to see Republicans, the so called party of family values, support such an…
It’s mostly about willful acts of violence against innocents. This might be a nuance that is too subtle though. Bad acts and bad actors should be called out. Russia is the bad actor in the Ukrainian invasion. Hamas and…

Which of the accusations are wrong? Do you deny these well documented things?
It’s not childish to call bad people bad.
Care to point out where I said this or implied this? I’m opposed to gay marriage. EDIT: I’m not really opposed to gay marriage. But I never said anything about my views on gay marriage or anything inconsistent with the…
I didn’t compare anything to Nazi Germany. I gave Nazi Germany as an example of how what is socially acceptable can drastically change in a short period of time. I apologize. He was found liable for sexual abuse,…
I have no desire to change anyone’s mind about their political views. Anyone who supports a known rapist and felon and who openly takes bribes can not be convinced of anything. I don’t engage in political discussions…
But if someone acts inhuman then it’s justified. Russia’s war crimes are well documented and they started the war. When you are the baddies then expect to be called so.
You cannot talk about Trump without putting him in context. I can. I did. It doesn’t need context. It’s well documented the things he did. The fact is, the reason why we have Trump for President again… This is not an…
according to gedpeck, nearly everyone in Africa and Asia, and every single practicing Muslim, is a horrible person... I said no such thing.
Great. We are in agreement that a person who engages in odious behavior is not worthy of support. As such Donald Trump is not worthy of support. If you want to discuss Biden then start another thread. This one is about…
Biden hasn’t been convicted of felonies. He’s not an adjudicated rapist. He doesn’t refer to his daughter as a nice piece of ass. He isn’t banned from running a charity. He hasn’t bribed any porn stars. He hasn’t…
it is that honesty and consistency isn't required to get insecure people to follow you blindly. I’m going to use this. Well stated.
What constitutes "harm"? Is hurting someone's feelings harm? Is misinformation harm? How do you determine intention? To what extent does intention matter? How do circumstances impact the answers to these questions? I…
My personal view is as follows. American society has reached a point of no return. Something has to give before a new equilibrium has been found. As an extreme example look to Nazi Germany. The repugnant views that were…
"over 50% of the country i live in are irredeemably terrible people" A large majority of the people did not vote for Donald Trump. but my guess is you don't actually think they're so terrible, People who support Donald…
… justified going to against individuals you disagree with? I don’t do anything at this time. But I understand why there are those who do have vitriol for supporters of a rapist who lusts after his own daughter. There…
Herein lies the crux of the matter in my view. The jump from 2 to 3. When Bob Dole ran for President I wholeheartedly agreed with the position about being respectful to those you disagree with. Politics was still normal…
In normal times I would agree with you. At present in the U.S. I’d not agree with this sentiment. People who support electing a known racist, thief, con man, and felon are deserving of ridicule and ire. They don’t…
Most definitely. Each person decides for themselves where the lines are drawn.
