why do people on the right associate every liberal on the left with clearly crazy left people ... but get upset when the left associates them with the far right or white supremacy.. and suggest the center is also upset... but you can't be in the center , because you dont agree with them but they haven't defined what they accept as center ?

This is overseas where there is enough crazy. I chose not to post something from this country - could have found it of course.

Why do people on the left feel that those that do not agree with them are fascists and racists? Why do a lot of people on the left feel that those supporting Trump makes them a fascist?



Why do people that identify as center, are not center, continue to tell everyone else what the center is ; ) ?

Will the real classic liberals please stand up

I’m not sure you have any real liberals on this site to stand up. I know some hardcore progressives and they are way, way, way to the left of me.

We need to do a little less bashing of each other around here.

I agree
push back against a position with a counter position (lables and name calling or personal insults are clearly not a counter position )

Good luck, some leopards just never change their spots. They bitch so much about how the left just hates Trump, yet their rhetoric and constant insults proof how much they hate anyone expressing legitimate concerns over their guy.

Why do people on the left feel that those that do not agree with them are fascists and racists? John that's a right talking point and you know that what get play by fox and conservatives some people do automatically dump all conservatives in this category and many right leaning people clearly support candidates who are clearly Racists didn't think that was debatable

Why do a lot of people on the left feel that those supporting Trump makes them a fascist?

When you watch his rallies hear his words witness his behavior and actions as POTUS and still support him 100% regardless that makes you fascist? not the goose stepping kind but clearly those who enjoy An authoritarian ultranationalism dictatorial type leader , and forcible suppression of opposition the media is the enemy of the people stuff

You dont get the privilege of owning only things you like about Trump





Why do people that identify as center, are not center, continue to tell everyone else what the center is ; ) ?


You still havent told us what is center to you? are you a centerest



Will the real classic liberals please stand up
I think you should be asking the classic Republicans to stand up.. rather than selling out
