Quote from Sparcky

you just won stupidest post of the year so far.

so what part do you think in incorrect in his post? - - Seriously Sparcky, do you not think the Democrat Party is anti white and anti Jew these days? as much as I hate to compare anyone or any group to the Nazis I have to admit that the right side of that picture with its bullet points about the democrat party seems to be 100% correct these days, so please tell us what parts you disagree with so that we can talk about them instead of hiding behind calling it stupid and running away.

Democrats - pro Socialisim, anti Gun, Pro media control to control us, pro abortion, and want to put government above the people - - - what parts wrong Sparcky?

HMMM. how about comparing the Dems with Nazis in general. Stupid statement..... which is all I have to say.

Anyone that can't see the difference, is part of the issue.

Don't forget about Trump courting Fuentes last year at dinner. White nationism, christian nationalism, is part of the right side of the spectrum.

well, if they support he same things then why is it not a valid comparison if only on those issues? - - no one said they were like the Nazi party in everything, the post only pointed out they support the same issues

and apparently you cant or wont say they don't

Just a question... I thought that since those days the Nazi's were thought of as Fascist, not Socialist? I am sure someone here will correct me, please.. I do understand what the meme is trying to say.. just that the comparison, although partially correct if Nazi's were socialist, is showing two different forms of government, but labeling them as the same.

As a blanket statement like the meme, the third collum should be Republican..

I will let you choose form of government.

Guns

Censorship

Media Mind Control

Abortion 50/50

Hate Arabs and people of color

Worship the Government.. (not really sure what that means)

Just my opinion... and as was mentioned... just another belly button.... (but I cleaned the lint out)

fascism

[ fash-iz-uhm ]
noun a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.

socialism

[ soh-shuh-liz-uhm ]

noun a theory or system of social organization that advocates the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, capital, land, etc., by the community as a whole, usually through a centralized government. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.

I am not a history buff - but below is what I read.

As for the meme - it was just that - a meme.

I am not trying to bring hate or shame to anyone on the forum - and I thought this thread was good for this kind of rhetoric.

I do believe that the meme is more accurate than inaccurate, but this is not to also say the right is also skewed as well.

This is my opinion. IDC who agrees or disagrees.

I see many posts that I don't agree with - but I just stay quiet - because I understand that everyone has the right to communicate their thoughts, regardless of what I think. The bigger issue at hand is how close we are getting to Country where we can't joke, speak, argue or articulate w/o someone getting mad.
People today are leading conversations with emotions - and not with clear thinking. This is how we got here in the 1st place!

I apologize to anyone I offended.

I agree with you.. and certainly no offense taken here. I was just pointing out what I thought of the meme and also did not mean to offend anyone. I meant no inference to the validity of your post, only what I thought of it.

I hope my post was not taken as emotional, only as an opinion regarding the meme (which some will take to heart). The purpose of this discussion thread is to do that, discuss, not to agree or disagree completely with one thing or another. Thank you for posting it.. I know my views are not very popular on this thread but I honestly like a balance and not just one side. I know it says Conservative politics, but also says daily events discussion...

Fact: Fuentes was an undisclosed and uninvited guest of Kanye West as a member of his personal entourage to a dinner party at Mar a Lago. President Trump didn't know who Fuentes was and had no interaction with him at the function. The aftermath fractured the relationship between President Trump and and Kanye who has not been invited back to any functions since.

Problem is Kanye while not the same level as Fuentes, has publically stated he like Hitler, and Nazi's. I have a hard time believing that Trump has no idea who many people are, as he has used that statement many times. Just because he has never met them, or been photographed with them, he has no idea who they are.....gets him out of his jam, but I still believe it's BS.

Quote from Bill Martin

Personally I believe that people, media, and politicians use the “Nazi” term far too much for respectful discourse. To allege a regime that slaughtered millions of people in the name of ethnic cleansing to anybody is a flat out misrepresentation of fact. While I can see pointing out similarities in ideology from the Nazi party to political parties foreign and domestic — I don’t hear any advocating for death camps (save and except radical Islam possibly). I see the point Shadrac was trying to make and think I understand sparky ’s point but “stupid” is a little harsh….just my 2 cents.

IMO, comparing anything to Nazis is not a good idea. Comparing them to Dems, because they both had a similar view on something is meant to evoke a strong reaction, and it did.

no apology needed. I knew what I was getting into when I joined this forum. Just like others, my moderate views are not as popular, which is likely why this elicited a harsher response. Did the meme offend me, sure it did. Was it supposed to, most likely it was. Which is why my response was what it was. Am I over it, YUP. As you said, it was a meme.

I am sure a few here have been offended by something I said in the past, or might say in the future. There will always be many that disagrees with my posts, just as I disagree with many. I never expect anyone to change their opinion because I don't agree with it. You are you.

BUT, I have rarely been good at biting my tongue.

I can joke, speak and disagree/argue with anyone, as you all have likely seen, and I don't get butthurt for long, if at all.

This does not change my views that I would be able to sit down with every one of you on here and polish off a case of beer, or a bottle of whiskey. Regardless of your opinion.

Ah yes, I forgot......we should judge/condemn people we don't know/have never met, based on public opinion, biased reporting, because we are told to, and out of fear from our opposition, rather than actually waiting until we find out who they are, what they actually think/do, and discern for ourselves why.

Otherwise...

I get your anger at the meme but as I said it was meant to show similar ideology IMO. You are fairly new to the discussions where I have been thru 2 presidential elections on this forum and both had trolls pop up that others that have been around a long time saw me go to battle with ( FunCycle can you remember the name of one of the 2 that I can recall being banned from forum - one was Big Dog can’t remember the other) and it was all I could do to keep myself civil with some of the crap that came out of his mouth. I do understand how it hit you wrong - some things just piss you off right to the core - we are all “stupid humans” at one time or another!! Think I would enjoy getting “stupid” with you over a couple cigars and a bottle of fine Kentucky bourbon or something one of your Canadian brothers gooseman turned me on to..

You Canuks are OK in my book if you can come up with something that freakin good. Goose always brings me down a couple bottles every year for rally. You should make rally one year so you could meet all the guys - they are all usually coming by my creek for libations - you would be a welcome addition!!

How about Hedgehog from the other forum. He was the whole reason for rabtech starting this forum. I do not have many people blocked on this forum. I totally shut one down years ago and he would not even speak to me in Maggie Valley.
