This is great! The more educated you are..the more close minded you are because college teaches you to broaden your horizons! I mean they offer classes like philosophy, psychology, sociology, history, communications, literature, government, Western civilization, art, religion, debate, political science, various hard sciences, statistics, anthropology, etc. Very limiting courses.
Academia is generally going to mirror the political majority of the region. 6 eyed is from Oregon so I can sort of understand why he sees everything as an evil liberal conspiracy, he is a minority conservative or libertarian or alt righter or whatever, trapped in a sea of some of the most liberal people in the country. I live in a conservative region and I get it, it is easy for me to feel overwhelmed and my perception of reality distorted by all the right wingers surrounding me. In truth the US is a pretty even blend, most people fall somewhere in the middle, with less and less people the further right or left you go. And academia reflects this. There are plenty of conservative leaning universities in this region. And plenty all across the country with no real left or right lean.
Good observation. I'm also just a lonely liberal in a red state onion patch.What about this one from Six-Eyed's stomping ground. http://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/fbi-helping-investigate-shooting-of-sikh-man-near-seattle/ http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/03/05/fbi-investigating-shooting-washington-state-sikh-man-as-possible-hate-crime.html https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2017/mar/05/sikh-man-shot-kent-washington-gunman-country It's a case of the shooting in Seattle, WA, of a Sikh by a masked man who told him to go back to his own country. What would your or Six-eyed's guess be about the perpetrator? Far left? Antifa (he was wearing a mask)? Just can't tell? Would it be legitimate to say the incident shows the inherently violent nature of the Right? Just wondering.
Well there was his immigration ban which fell thru amongst much backlash....declaring the media the enemy of the people...when a court overturned his immigration ban he replied, "We'll see you in court!"...has declared we will have clean air and water while working to dismantle environmental regulations...has said there was voter fraud causing him to lose the popular vote...plans to go ahead with construction of the wall at the Mexican border...and now says Obama wiretapped Trump Tower. Now it's your turn to say these are all successes and not failures.
Every president has had bans, you simply take exception because your party lost. Obama had bans in place. there is already a wall which each president has extended and land owners on the border have enacted their own walls as well to extend it, Clinton, bush and obama have extended the wall but you freak out because trump says we will build a wall. Lol. There is already a wall. He will extend it, Trump is middle of the road by the way... this is whysome Republicans don't like him. And people online instead of actually reading policies are believing the media and what they are fed rather than looking into it themselves. People say trump is whining, but when in fact American liberals are snivelling bitches, who are bleeding hearts for everyone ... including the poor North American marmot whose population are decreasing. Hoover during the Great Depression shut down immigration completely. You guys are in a deep recession, even if you don't want to admit it. The attacks on September 11 affected American perspectives on immigration. 20 foreign terrorists were involved in the attack. These 30 caused the death of about 3000 people. Plus injuries. The terrorists had entered the United States on tourist or student visas. Four of them, however, had violated the terms of their visas. This attack exposed flaws and holes in your immigration system, and the visa program. If someone travels to Syria at this time and stays there for long periods of time, do you think anything might be wrong with this picture? Who travels to countries with such unrest? . Do you want to be laxed and allow room for this to happen again? There are problems in your processing system. Do you want this fixed first or just say fuck it, who cares about the risk? Let the chips fall where they may? Seems this is what you want. So what do you want to bitch about? Syrians not being allowed in... where were you all when obama banned Iran? The deep recession which is a depression really. People in your country ar struggling.
^ It all depends on the details. You're thinking in generalities again. Friend and enemy, right and left, supporters and opposers: all kinds of people see this president is just as precise in his deeds as he is in his words. An important reason lots of people shit on him and don't like him. The dislike is not simply based on how he won the election. Why put it like that (if you're not trolling or kidding)? That you seem to argue otherwise can just as easily be
why do you say it like that unless you are joking or trolling? . Not in general at all .. how do you want me to say it asmo an which parts do you find to be generalized.. please be specific? Don't generalize. These people here will say blanket statements without any validity or back up... yet require it from me. When they are given it, they simply disregard it or just say, even though he isn't controlling my body, to which I hat him for, I still hate him. Let me figure out another reason why. Let's see what r,we can be made up. I isn't even that I am pro trump, cause I am not, but this hysteria is just over the top. People are upset they lost. The left is feeding it. Hilary is and so is obama. The unemployment rate in the USA is not what you think. The numbers are not accurate at all. This is a fact. Unemployment rate does not count those who hav given up hope, and there is a lot... not those who can only find seasonal or part time work, and there us a lot since the crash who have not recovered. Look at the weird things the stock market did in December 2016" He was liberal, this is not news, he was . But people choose to forget that. middle of the road. There is a fine line between middle of the road liberal and middle conservative, Liberals need conservatives to make it work. He is more liberal than Hilary was actually, but Hillary will have you believe otherwise Whose version of history are you going to hear? Bell wax American right? Canadians disagree,... he lived in Canada, his mom was deaf, This is why he invented the phone, he wanted her to hear. Had a home and a pls do where he did a log of research in Nova Scotia too and bs is where he retired to. he was Canadian but really he was Scottish. You have a prof with a way of thinking, you learn his wish, you regurgitate what you read in books like it is an original thought, It closes your mind for many and Berkeley is a great example of this. They are closed off. Believe they are justified are right .. to disagree you are a racist and close minded. Are you going to supply a slogan? My slogan will be a silent message and will be carrying a coat hanger for the back ally abortions and the law being overtiurned that will never happen. Oh or better, a red circle with a hanger in it and a slash through it . That one is for moonglow.
Give me a break, your one line was at 12:51 and my response at 12:56. I added on at the end after when I saw your command and put a slogan. You have added in this thread as well ... on that very page and we're a part of the derailing. Trump Slogan HYPOCRITE
Ok one of the generalisations you think in that doesn't matter is how liberal Trump is. A liberal business man can be as dubious as a nazi dictator in his policies. It doesn't mean much that he's 'more liberal than Clinton'. Another good example is how you keep focussing on how all the 'hysteria' is merely coming from the election and how Clinton lost it. No, if you're putting it as such you're the one lingering on that, not all those people who all have their own reasons for protesting the way they do. You're generalizing the protestors and their motives. You're acting like anyone here can use generalisations except you. This is not true. You can use them too. But when you use a lame generalisation to prove a point about only a part of these protestors it will be pointed out.
It totally is asmo... the media is paid employees of political parties. From both sides. BLM as paid by obama admin. The reason they were pissed and wanted left is because funding would stop from the government. It is why all the unrest. BLM writers hired by newspapers. The popular BLM writers online were paid employees ... from government funding, There are some people and sites thas give complete neutral acessments of things that that is not all hype. Will give pros and cons, but this is not sensationalized enough and people don't want to read it,,,, boring read. Everything in the media has some truth... but we all have to research it to see if it has been blown out of proportion or downplayed. People say here it is black or white with me... not true at all. It becomes black and white when check the facts and someone states something that is contradictory to facts. Passing laws and how it works is not false. Trump is actually pro choice. Links to congress laws passed is not biased, it was facts and is. When people state obama never banned... it is not true. They are comparing one to the other. Falsely.
if this thread is not back on topic the next time I check, it will be closed. The topic is Trump Protest Slogans.
Sssshhhhhhh I assume that DICKTATOR was aimed at Trump and not MeAgain, in which case you have gotten back on the subject. Please continue, we've come up with some good slogans we can write on our signs when we attend our next protest. It would be a damn shame if this thread got shut down. Why not start your own thread titled, "Let's fight over Trump!". Then you'll have no problem staying on topic.
Sssshhhhhhh, I will also assume you were talking about Trump. I may have acted in haste, I apologize if that is the case. I unlocked the thread.
