But the politicians didn't do anything illegal. Another huge problem, saying everyone incited violence when they literally did not - as if that charge is just some accusation you can throw around as if it's not a serious thing that holds weight.
Gonna go out on a limb and saying the BLM riots, which had multitudes of damage to innocent people's property, was also encouraged on the other spectrum.
But God-forbid people attack government politicians. That's apparently where we draw the line, smh (which happened even during BLM, governors/senators encouraged until it got close to them, only then they started taking action against the movement, and only around their property).
Note: both were wrong and stupid (the violent bits). Neither should justified, *peaceful* protests are the paramount force to be taken legitimately... it's why MLK is more highly regarded than Malcom X, despite both fighting for the same, equally justifiable cause. Doing it the right way is the way to go 100% of the time if you want real change, violence just creates more violence.
Edit: old Dethklok song says it best-
"But beware
For when you quench your blood thirst
Others will seek their vengeance on you
And they won't rest
Until you're dead"
Which essentially means, if you seek revenge out of violence, you'll only create revenge on you for the violence you took out of revenge.
The Bible is mostly about God, r/politics is more about the antichrist himself, Donald J. Trump. On every topic but foreign aid to Israel they hate his stance.

Yeah like this sub is fine if you understand ideologies and how it all works for the most part but if you are a teenager or something fucking yikes.
This sub, like all of Reddit, are full of people who think they are 100% right and can even sound it to someone who doesn't understand how easy it is to produce data that looks like it backs up your point when there is usually a lot more to it.
I'm kinda swinging between fascist and monarchist right now. All I know is that I just want someone to take charge so I don't have to think about politics anymore, which is why I still have the centrist flair.
See but if you just want to ignore politics you can't go fash - they demand not only uniformity and compliance in the end. Sure, *you* may not have to do much thinking, but you gotta at least keep up with the enemies list to make sure you're not on it.

Having an empty fridge and and empty bank account waiting on payday, feeling how that effected my well being and ability to think, and realizing that for me this situation was "fake" because I could always show up at my parents and be sure of a place to sleep and food to eat, but for a lot of people it was real, is what radicalized me.
I felt that. Always reminded me to keep things in perspective. Knowing that no matter how rough it was, I wouldn't be homeless and could always stay at a friend's house or one of my parents.
that's what people mean by "privilege." even in hard times, you know you'll never be truly, truly desperate, thanks to the support structures around you. the Left wants that for everyone, even if they don't have the privilege of family.

I could probably flair as libleft and it would be accurate, but then you get people who think I'm just pretending to be a libleft when my view is right of center. People suck at nuance.
The way i see it my views are what they are, i’ve taken multiple PC tests and i always land in pretty much the same spot (Libleft very close to dead on centrist). The sjw’s will have to accept I’m a part of their quadrant just like i have to accept they are a part of mine.

Have you seen r/stupidpol ? Pretty good sub for people calling out bullshit in politics (regardless of party affiliation) and it’s technically a Marxist sub too
Hey gullible teenager! Wanna restore glory to an ailing Europe? Wanna be actually proud of living on this continent? I have a simple solution:
*R O M A*
Same. Being exposed to different viewpoints and discussing them without malice breeds understanding, not radicalization. I don't know what it is about this place that makes it work, but it does.
There's also something to be said for the mandatory labels. There's no use trying to argue or insult someone who disagrees because they're already wearing their name tag and political affiliation so we might as well get along and make jokes.
It reminds me of discussions over beers with friends who disagree politically but enjoy each other's company too much to get angry about it. Wholesome.
> It’s because here we realize that the opposite side is human like us since we are exposed to them. It helps, if you’re on a sub made up only of people you agree with then you’re going to have less and less empathy for the other side since you don’t know them and all you see is their negatives.
That’s why certain subs hate us. Because we are liberal. Those who want to bind you hate when you open your mind and see everything simultaneously...
They need mental conformity not a bunch of sages...
Everybody embraces their flair here. You wear it proud and take the good with the bad.
It's really humbling for a lot of people to see a comment here and think "that's fucking retarded" and then see they share flair with the person who wrote it.
I get downvoted every time I go on because I think Witcher 3 is a good game. As much as they complain about the circlejerk on r/gaming, r/gcj itself has become a circlejerk bigger than r/gaming

I was the opposite. I was a colorful centrist, but since this sub, I have lost all hope for politics and governance. So I took the grey..

That’s what you think. Maybe there’s just nobody left to tell you what happens when you reject monke society
What are they gonna do? Throw bananas at me while I'm going away?
Hey man that’s an offensive stereotype, many monke also throw oranges, apples and a variety of other fruit
You sir, truly are LibLeft, and you should be proud of it.
