#politics I'm not saying all Republicans are defending 
, but all those defending him are by their own admission, Republicans.
@SentinelOfTruth Consider:
"I'm not saying that all pro-choice people support using abortion as birth control, but all those who do are, by their own admission, pro-choice."

@kel I await the Progressive Block out their defending Trump's action exhaustively and publicly? Libreal groups? How many left of center aligned are speaking up to say Trump is being unjustly being persecuted?
I'll wait.
@SentinelOfTruth I'm sorry, are you asking me for proof of Democrats defending Trump?
You keep doubling down on your asinine, utterly inaccurate stereotypes. I get why you're doing it, but you're helping the worst among those you so vehemently hate by doing so.
I'm starting to believe that you're incapable of understanding how that helps the forces that benefit from further dividing us, and I'm tired of trying to explain it to you. βοΈ
@kel ok, "You get why I'm doing it" getting what, explain to me this? Because all I'm getting here is a response that is a personal attack.
I am more than fine with proverbially throwing down, but, guy if you want to really thrown stones here: arguing from a perpetual center doesn't bring anyone together with you; it pushes them away and does the opposite of what you hope to achieve. I'm probably more politically aligned with you and your stance repels me.
What's that say about you?
@SentinelOfTruth You're conditioned to hate them. All of us are. It's a lot more evident among those who regularly partake of mass media. Is that you?
Even your reply here is framed in such a way that confirms a hard-baked bias on your end. Recognizing that there is a broad range of political beliefsβand that it makes political stereotypes damaging and unproductiveβdoesn't change the fact that I've voted for Democrats my whole life.
You should explore your bias rather than being put off. $0.02
@kel I read this awhile ago and am floored by the sheer amount of hypocrisy in it. You accuse me of generalizations--and proceed to do the exact same thing, basing your interpretation of me on what two altercations?
I didn't suddenly OUTRAGE because trump, this is DECADES of it from their actions, their votes, their policies. Me, I came to those conclusions, get off your high horse. You don't know a damn thing about me or anyone else you've made this claim with, spare me your lecture.
@kel You don't think I haven't spoken directly with Republicans? You don't think the actual real people here have real life experiences? Because I have and my attitude is based on real situations not some dolled up internet scenario I think you surplant reality with to push your agenda.
And of the two of us, it ain't me pushing anything. I post 2-3/wk? I have 1.5k posts lifetime. If I have some kind of plan, I'm really bad at it.
@SentinelOfTruth Go back far enough, and you'll quickly see why we're having this discussion at all.
I didn't imagine your blanket assertion. Words matter, yes?
I don't know you from Adam. All I can go by is your posts, and a fair few of them suggest and defend a stereotype that I believe to be very damaging.
