The enemy of the people

How many threats does the Trump admin get because of things that guy and Lemon say? Probably more than one. That is the problem with being edgy and opinionated.

I do think that Trump likely receives more threats than any other previous President besides Obama but those are coming from fringe liberals upset with policies like seperting families and not because of Don Lemon.

Congratulations. They found a crazy guy with a phone.

Yep. I heard the guy. The only party/group he represents is the mentally ill.

Partisanship has become a very lucrative industry. And as an industry it must have a marketing department. And the marketing department for each ism is their media.

What happens when the people take up the fight and reporters start getting killed?

So we should not call a racist a racist because a black guy might kill him?

Well, he might not have meant it. Of course you have to take him at his word. But he might just be tired of being called a deplorable.

How could you possibly know that? Are you really trying to justify it?

Do people like Lemon do anything to contribute to it?

Yes, the person who listens to Trump’s rhetoric and believes it’s their duty to take the fight to the enemy will almost certainly be mentally ill

That’s motivated reasoning. Can the same not be said of the other side and Trump or whoever?

Reason is merciless.

Indeed it is.

Which is why many Trump supporters resist using it.

Ummm… you may think that is who reason targets but you would be wrong. Machiavelli was good at reason. Brutal dictatorships use reason and stamp out illogical spirituality.

Reason alone is the enemy of humanity.

But you get a trophy for trying to answer.

Dammit, Sneak, you’re in an expansive mood today. Too fair. All right…I agree…

Childish playground insult from emotion.

Libs usually make the argument that unless the federal government performs the deed, it is not unconstitutional. Such as in censoring. Are you ready to give that argument up? We can talk about antifa then. And cake bakers.

Stop moving the goalposts. I am not making that argument here. I am asking whether his supporters would hold Trump accountable if reporters start getting killed. I am not at all surprised nobody has had the courage to answer

What is relevant here is whether Trump’s government would hold a killer accountable. That’s the only thing that is important.

No goalpost is moving. Just looking for consistency in your debates.

It’s a really good thread.

[sikofit]

I’m just giving my opinion as a liberal. I’m saying that my side has it’s share of crazies too but they aren’t being incited by Don Lemon.

Not in the slightest, violence in these situations is not justified no matter what the letter is next the politician’s name is.

@JayJay

Ish did answer

He said the enemy must be fought.

So there’s your answer

And truth is the most formidable weapon.

Are you seriously trying to assert that the actual motive isn’t important?

Whose motive?

[sikofit]

@WuWei

Who is inciting them?

The voices in their heads and other loonballs like Maxine Waters. I have no problem with her being held accountable if liberal voters start assaulting those they disagree with

Donald isn’t the first POTUS to attack the press or have an adversarial relationship with them. He is unique, however, in that it’s the major focus of his administration.

Nixon was very anti press.
