I got told I'll get kicked out of my own apartment by someone who isn't on the lease if I make fun of trump and Republicans out loud lmao.
Me and my mother are on the lease. Her BF who lives with us isn't . Apparently he'll kick me out of my own apartment (I'm 25 btw. Not a kid.)
So why is your mother dating this douche?
Her mother is just like him
Get a gun in case he tries to murder you in your sleep for not being part of the borg.
Seriously, after that story about the guy who killed that women for having a pride flag, you never know how randomly violent these people will be.
Or if you read that story about how people rioted, burned down buildings, looted, attacked jews, etc.. etc.. etc... in portland... You never know how randomly violent /those/ people will be.
Seriously, people are fucked on both sides, and the more I watch things, the more I believe that it's the people left and right of center that are the psychos.
The far right and left seem tame by comparison.
It's like the honorable Zap Branagan said. You can't trust those neutrals.
WTF are you on about?!
Well, people saying right is violently psycho, just pointing out that the left is just as bad.
That's fair. The far left certainly can be violent, as it was in the late 60s and early 70s --my parents were actually friends with SLA members in SF in the late 60s, though they themselves had nothing to do with it-- but it's just a fact that far right violent extremists happen to be far more active in our current era.
Various IC organizations have been saying this for at least the last 6 or 7 years, and events have proven them correct; while the far left is certainly guilty of violence against property, the far right has accrued a much higher body-count.
