Well for starters, at some point recently, the far left decided if they disagree with someone the answer is to riot, destroy property, attack and injure people and create anarchy. Mind you this is simply for disagreeing with a person's political views.

Something really bad is going to happen soon. You can see it coming.

You don't see the reaction of liberals as a mirror reflection of the tea party? There are quite a few similarities... Anger, protesting against divergent values, a few bad actors, and not a ton of understanding of their opponents.

I would disagree with at least some of this--I think many, if not most protestors on the left understand their opponents quite well.

You can look at the posts in this thread for broad generizations about the goals of the GOP, motivations of Trump supporters, etc that are far from accurate.

And I do really think the Republican party is in fact aiming to create something like a Russian kleptocracy here in the US. Party leaders and elected officials I think have mostly made the calculation that they stand to personally benefit if they succeed, and have decided to go along for the ride. The fact that as far as I know not a single Republican has called for Bannon's resignation or removal is all the evidence I need.

Corporatism has been en vogue for decades now on both sides. Personal enrichment is just the next step. I mean, we already allow congressmen to skirt insider trading laws. It's been absurd for a little while now.

Brantt, you need to read like some James Baldwin or Alice Munro. You're seriously one of the dumbest people on Philly sports message boards. I don't read the Penn State thread bc who cares about dumb school, but everything you say elsewhere is just a regurgitated cliche. I'm not trying to insult you by saying that, you're just a toad. You can get less ignorant with a little self reflection and a little desire to be a better person.

Wow, that's kind of harsh, dude.

And disagreement / hate over religion has driven the world for years.
