It's their way or no way with the GOP in America, no dissent, or even questions are allowed.

The "free speech absolutists" really gave that phrase a bad name by being so hypocritical. Republican national and state leadership has revealed itself as liars, hypocrites, and even un-american.

  “I’ll tell you something that’s going to get me in trouble, but I couldn’t care less,” the president responded. “The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don’t want to see crime. They don’t want to see crime.”

  “They’re saying, ‘We don’t want these people coming here. And we don’t want you burning our shopping centers. We don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street,’”

Given those recent comments, can this be anything other than a list of people for right-wing radicals to target?

Completely unhinged and delusional take. No one at the top even faced consequences for what happened on January 6th and you're pretending that Biden's DOJ was somehow on a revenge tour?

> If the left had respected the boundary, the line would not have been crossed

What boundary was this and what politicians on the left were advocating for political violence?

"someone else started it"

Just seems like elementary school excuses. If I even assume that's just true "we're despots too, just like them!!!" is that supposed to be a selling point to me or something?

If it's wrong, it's wrong, that's it, that's how values work.

It's still kind of crazy that we have masked federal agents abducting people off of the streets en masse and hauling them away to foreign concentration camps without due process.

Even at America's lowest points (Fugitive slave act, Bleeding Kansas, Japanese internment) this is not something Americans would have tolerated of their federal government.

I feel the need to remind people that Americans labelled Hitler a tyrant and were willing to march to the death to Berlin before they even knew about the concentration camps.
