Politics FBI bulletin warns of 'dirty bomb' threat and increasing calls for 'civil war'

The difference has been pointed out to you multiple times in this thread. I don't know your initial point, but your initial post was claiming the majority in the crime spree thread were democrats, which prompted many to ask for proof. You had none, so there was an expectation set on your behalf that democrats should condemn those crimes, even though there was no political link to it. Therein lies the difference. Pointed out for you AGAIN. It's an absurd jump in logic. Nobody was "triggered". It just went from people asking for proof of that to you complaining in sweeping generalities about "the left" and hypocrisy and your misremembering of a thread from 2 years ago Which you, well, the old you, have consistently done. It's been pointed out to you, but you'll come back in another month with the same line.

No one complained man. You Re the one caliming im bit hing and yelling for simply stating my opinion.
We both know it cant be proved and it cant be disproved so the request for proof is not productive and not conducive to a constructive conversation obviously based on opinions.
Rhe issue is my opinion triggers you and you aren't able to have a realistic conversation. You make it personal.

I still have no clue why you insist on quoting me and then not liking my opinion and firing back with personal attacks claiming im bitching and yelling when its clearly evident it isnt. Some others and i on here are able to discuss and disagree perfectly fine without making it personal like you do.

if you cant cease making it personal and just have a conversation of opinions, then yea, i will bow out and let you have the last condescending word and move on.
Have at it.

And actually my initial post was to someone else ASKING if that individual felt the majority were left or right leaning.
Please, please get your facts straight if you are going to continue to rail on every little thing i say…

...it seems more like this boils down to the same confused logic of conflating peaceful BLM/antifa/protesters & opportunistic petty criminals/looters (not to mention the agent provocateurs, bad actors and alternate news media sowing deceit and manipulation of "facts") pretty sure this too has been covered ad nauseum in here.

I seem to recall people stating more than just voting for. Not speaking out against was considered support. I seem to remember in the early days of the protests, those who did not speak out in support for blm were deemed to be against blm, etc.
I believe anyone who was condemning the vandalism of the protests were deemed as right wing blm haters, etc. and not for equal rights. i do believe this connection was used on many levels. Not just voting.

Yes, opposing a civil rights protest would mean you are opposed to said civil rights.

That's not what i said though. Where did i say anyone opposed the protest?

Nobody was FOR the vandalism. Pretty sure every poster in this forum was opposed to the vandalism. I certainly was. And I was never labeled a racist.

Again that is not what i said.
Can we just drop it? This is clearly creating an issue that i asked someone if the majority of the crimes in that other thread were leaning left or right.
i didn't even make a claim at first. But ive been told im bitching and yelling etc for just trying to have a convo of different opinions.
Kinda ridiculous. So lets just move on because i didn't say anything your last two post claimed.
I only brought up what i feel is a double standard and that got some people all riled up.
Some people have their pitchforks close at hand for anyone that disagrees with them….

 

[Haakzilla]

...the trouble is your double standard pt you're trying to make is based on the premise that BLM/antifa were burning down cities all across America -- which is, in itself, a patently false claim. Not opinion.

I'm just trying to follow along with what you're saying. You said:

Pretty much everybody in this forum condemned the vandalism and violence. I certainly did, and I was not labeled as a right wing BLM hater. At least, I don't think I was.

Yes, we can certainly drop it.

If you're still referencing a thread from over 2 years ago and commenting on the unfair treatment, still, from a thread made 2 years ago, then yes, ill label that as bitching and yelling or complaining. That's not an "up and up" conversation. That borders on ridiculous. What differing opinions conversation are you trying to have? Because I honestly don't see it. You're just making a statement about what the left should do and calling out a perceived hypocrisy.

i was asked for evidence so i mentioned those threads. You asked i offered and now you consider it bitching. Just go away man. Why you engage with me is baffling. All you do is condescend me for having a different opinion and trying to answer the questions asked.

There is an ignore button. Since you wont use it, i will. Also. Thanks for not calling me out and keeping me in confidence. I trusted you….
Shame on me…

Enough.

Some of the crimes in the crime thread were committed by people that would be considered on the left. Some were committed by people that would be considered on the right. They are all crimes and wrong.

If someone can't condemn a crime one way or the other well that's on them.
