There is no common ground, nothing even remotely resembling bi-partisanship, and that is exactly how they want it to be, Rarely can you even engage in a friendly conversation with most of them.

    Long past time for democrats to accept the reality that these people don’t care about democracy, don’t really care about this nation. They FEAR and REJECT everything that isn’t white and they will violently react to their FEAR.

    They are the embodiment of white supremacy and cannot be allowed to rule, but that can only come through something they do not have, intelligence, not by way of the gun.
    Cunts like you never stop banging on about White Supremacy, you're the fucking problem!

    You are far from qualified to evaluate my intelligence. A fool would give you difficulty.

    Progressives most definitely exist. The difference is, they are the enemy.

    The censorship isn’t an assumption—it’s a reality. It’s just not a free speech issue in a formal sense because the government isn’t involved. And again, there was a day when actual liberals wouldn’t tolerate it. But that’s the point, liberals have become leftists/‘progressives’/Marxists.

    Come back when you understand that the Bill of Rights is only a restriction on Government, not people or business you fucking idiot.

    You are wrong about that. One example: "Liberals" never cared for the n-word, and good parents did not use it or allow the kids to use it. The anti-PC crowd (mostly Reichwingers) think that this means liberals are stifling free speech. What you really mean is that you believe everyone should have the right to use someone else's platform to say whatever they want, without any consequences.

    Harassment is harassment. Tell us, what's the difference?

    I thought the discussion was about free speech and the so-called "cancel culture." What does being asked to leave a restaurant have to do with either one?

    Uh, no it wasn't.

    Look at the top of the page and you'll see

    The damage done (united we stand, divided we fall)

    That was the topic of the discussion.

    The harassment of someone simply because of their employer and political leaning is divisive.
