    Some people obviously can't handle a joke, but then leftist are usually a bit short on the sort of humor that doesn't find small children pulling the legs off bugs or Republicans funny...

    Here's AOC's instructions for dressing and accessorizing for galvanizing activities.

    Screen Shot 2020-09-20 at 1.00.07 PM.png

    Wear non-distinctive clothing, and cover up identifying tattoos- so you can't be held accountable for your mostly peaceful galvanizations.

    Heat resistant gloves- in case you have to pick up a hot teargas canister and toss it at the cops mostly peacefully.

    Reports of white supremacist infiltrators?

    Um, can I see the DOCUMENTATION of that?

    Anymore than leftist did in 2008? The game if political hypocrisy has been in full bloom since Athens voted to make Socrates eat hemlock for asking the wrong sort of questions.

    I don't get the perceived largeness of Ginsburg. To me, setting aside the millions of abortions, legalizing abortion only served to cheapen life, womanhood, motherhood, fatherhood and family. And legalizing homosexual marriage serves nothing but to pervert the covenant of marriage. These two acts lend towards the destruction of the family which is the foundation of society. In tandem with welfare which rewards out of wedlock births from promiscuity and fatherless homes. It is a recipe for rampant crime and destruction. How this can be perceived as having anything to do with equality and progress is beyond me. One may as well criminalize conscience so as to make welcome those without one or whose have been seared by willfulness, and calloused beyond cognizance.

    What happened in 2008? What are you even talking about? And what does Athens have to do with it?

    Seeing that the Senate and Presidency were at odds before the upcoming 2016 election, McConnell chose to wait for the election and let the people decide. The people did and it was to his liking. Now the Senate and Presidency are not at odds. So he is going forward with the nomination of a new judge. Seems to me to not be incongruous.

    McConnell didn't say we should wait because the Senate and Presidency were at odds. Please provide a quote.

    Why didn't he state it as his reasoning in 2016?

    IDK, I guess he assumed it was understood or self evident when he said he'd let the people decide in the upcoming election.

    Dude, dingy Harry told Bush not to even bother nominating any one for a judicial vacancy let alone scotus. Athens suggests that political hypocrisy has been around for a very long time.

    Thankfully you are concentrated or redundant. As for whether aoc meant galvanize or radicalize, It's pretty clear that videos of left wing riots speak for themselves.

    Well, if you think 'radicalize' means 'convert to jihad' or 'riot & loot" or something similar, allow me to inform you that I can tell you she doesn't, because she is a progressive, as I am, and I know, as a progressive, much better into her style and thinking than you do, that, as a group, we are motivated and mobilized to effect change by peaceful means, and here by 'you' I mean republicans whose only agenda is to further the creeping fascism of Trumpism in American, and subsequently will be perfectly willing to pervert the words of democrats to further that agenda. Therefore, the odds are that I'm correct and you are not.

    But, I do not have to pervert the words of republicans, their leader speaks clearly that they are willing to incite violence, wherever and whenever it suits them:

    What a convoluted word salad. You are not "qualified" to twist her words into whatever sounds rosy.
    Curious, is Maxine Waters a "progressive" when calling for mobs to harass elected Republicans in public?

    "You form a crowd and you push back on them, you let them know they are not welcome anymore, anywhere"

    Care to explain that away ? ^

    Precisely left wingers always accuse the other guy of that which they are most guilty.

    I've been a progressive for 45 years I'm qualified, and no republican will be honest anyway, why bother debating it with them?

    They are going to twist words no matter what.

    This is your lying president. This is incontrovertible proof that the right is not worthy of power, that this president is unfit for office.
    this is demagoguery on the order of dictators. This is incipient fascism talking.



    Care to explain why your president is calling for violence?



    I'm not going to explain anything without evidence, I'm sure as hell not going to trust your interpretation of events. Provide a link.

    So by "form a crowd and push back" crazy Auntie Maxine was really calling for "galvanization", right?

    She told them to push back.

    BFD. She isn't calling for violence.

    ( I wouldn't have advocated bothering people while they are eating, so I disagree with her, there )

    You guys are really grasping at straws here.

    But, where's your ethics complaint here? Hmmmm?

    Trump before a crowd of 15,000 people says this:


    Apparently when Trump is ACTUALLY CALLING FOR VIOLENCE, you don't mind.

    But when one of ours says 'push back' you IMAGINE ****.

    Get real

    When one of yours says "push back", I don't have to imagine anything. I just take a good look around, and I know exactly what kind of pushing they were talking about.

    It doesn't get much realer than that.
