  • let me start by acknowledging that I merely wanted to express that it’s not just “extreme right buffoonery” that’s a problem. to claim that there is no such thing as “extreme left
    buffoonery” is misleading.

    my comment clearly stated that the extremes on both ends are to be despised. politics is a game I don’t wish to be judged on because I’m seriously apolitical. we do need to meet in the middle. I’m not saying we need to forgive the “buffoonery” but cut out the rotten fruit and make a fucking jam. ideals are not arbitrary in any way. our ideals are built through life experience. I’m seeing a whole lot of each side trying to dehumanize the other for not agreeing with their politics. The “right” has rational, reasonable, kind humans who believe in human rights. but the fact that they may have a stance on the nanny state that the country is becoming somehow makes everyone who’s not a professed Democrat evil.

    regarding hate speech, frankly I’ve experienced more than my fair share. but that doesn’t count, right?
