  • Yeah, and if he had tried, it would have been justice. But he didn't try to "overthrow the government. "... I know that's what the media tells you, and you eat it up, but just try to use some critical thinking. Please.

    If he had actually tried, he definitely wouldn't be allowed to try to run again, at the very least. He most likely would be in jail. The fact that he isn't tells us he didn't legitimately try to actually overthrow the government.

  • You're implying Hitler wasn't as big a threat in 1936, but he should have been killed anyway... and you dont see how that would be wrong?

    That's beside the point. You're all skewed... 1936 August 28: German authorities implement mass arrests of jehova Witnesses in Germany. Most are sent to concentration camps. They already had concentration camps in 1936. Hitler wasn't being called harmless. He wasn't a threat to the west yet, but he was a threat to many. He was a threat to Germany. In 1923, he staged a coup and went to prison. "The Beer Hall Putsch." No one like me was calling Hitler harmless in 1936.

    That's actually beside the point, too. You want to execute an innocent man. Well... innocent of a crime that would call for the death penalty. You're endorsing the assassination of an ex-president. An execution not based on law and order. Its disgusting and un-American to wish such a thing. I doubt this is convincing you, and I'm probably wasting my time, so I'm done now

  • Lol... thanks. I appreciate that you commented this. Your comparison of Trump to Hitler clearly indicates your ignorance and immaturity. And the upvotes you've received helps (and downvotes my comment got) remind me of the crowd I'm dealing with here on lemmy. Hatefilled and ignorant. I don't particularly like trump myself, I'll admit it, but I don't wish murder on him... I could try to explain the serious differences between the 2 political leaders, but it would do neither of us any good. Yalls need more help than I can offer here.

  • You're disgusting...

  • victimhood narrative.

    Isn't that a correct narrative since there was, in fact, a victim?

  • Ah, that's good. At least you tried.

  • No? Didn't think so...

  • Your comment is more level-headed than most here, but you also are wrong/misled and making assumptions.

    All you've shared on this site paints you as being far right

    No... it doesn't. Just because some things I've said are "right" of your political opinions doesn't mean I'm "right", much less far-right. I'm sick of grouping others and being grouped myself. But on the political spectrum, I am in the middle, usually.

    Quote me something from my comment history that "paints me as being far right," and I will tell you why you're wrong.

    I didn't want to say this, but I have never in my life voted democrat OR republican, for anything. I shouldn't have to admit to that to try to make all of you understand... the term "radical left" seems to be more and more appropriate to me lately.

  • Geez... this is scary. Hearing people admit to being "radicalized" by a political ideology, proudly... y'all gonna start civil war or what?

  • .

  • No, I don't. I don't need to qualify myself to you or anyone here. I don't want to be on your side. I don't want to be on either "side." You want to make a division and put me into a group. It might be better to look upon our similarities rather than differences.

    We're getting into dangerous ground around here... I heard a narrative the other day that "'centrist' are actually just conservatives."

    Oh, so basically, it's "if you aren't for us, you're against us"?

    This is how civil wars start...

  • Lol oh lordy...

    normies on Lemmy

    You believe you are the "normal people" here? You need to get off the internet, you poor thing. Take a step outside, talk to another flesh and blood human being. I mean, have an actual conversation.

    There are only a handful of "normal people" on reddit, and fewer here. For one thing, the cognitive dissonance is stronger here than on reddit.

    Seriously though, you're making assumptions on generalizations like the last guy... quit talkin' out yer azz.

  • Lol, all you are doing is generalizing and making assumptions. I'm not going to correct you, though. It's funny. I can feel the hate radiating from you, it has blinded you.

  • The irony...

    Also, don't be so agro, bro. You're making assumptions based on stereotypes and generalizations. 1. You don't know me. 2. You apparently don't understand what is left or right. I can make assumptions, too, and mine would be that what you know has been spoon-fed to you by mainstream media.

  • Well, I do agree, but alas, it's kinda both.

  • The first paragraph was candid self evaluation and my personal speculation. The second paragraph was commentary on politicians and political agenda. I could have written the 2nd paragraph better. The sheep I meant to represent are those who adopt the narratives of these political agendas without realizing that that is what they have done. They have unknowingly joined a political agenda. And it's absolutely both sides, left and right.

    The topic of climate change has unfortunately become a tool for politicians, whether it be the right or left. This is bad. It is bad because it muddies the water, it muddies the the real scientific facts, what what those facts suggest. I honestly didn't mean to only suggest that those who subscribe to global warming were sheep. Rather, it's both sides pushing a narrative for an agenda. To buy into a narrative because "the experts said so" isn't always a good idea. Personal exploration, research, and observation are very important. Even "scientific consensus" needs to be weighed and judged soberly. Very much, "Scientific consensus" can, and does change over time.

    There was "scientific consensus" in that 80s that because of the polar ice caps melting, newyork would be underwater by now...

  • ... did you have anything intelligent to add? Nevermind... I don't even know why I asked...

  • Yeah, it's called an opinion. I used to have the opinion that global warming was a serious concern. After learning more and more life experiences, my opinion has changed.

    The only fact I claimed is that politicians have political agendas, and that is a fact. Some politicians promote that the earth is getting warmer, some say that it isn't, but if it comes from a politician, it comes from an agenda.

    I appreciate that you came with some scientific facts, surely. And you're right I brought forth no objective argument, it was subjective. Maybe I should have started my comment with "IMO". I assumed everyone would catch on to that since I was relating my own personal experience with the topic.

  • Yall are tiresome...
