But I have a sincere question for Mr. Koolaid, per the OP. Well, a two-parter, really. First, do you feel concern about the 'violent left?' Second, what specifically is it about the left that you feel is violent and/or threatening?

I ask because of what I see and hear from our president, from those slickly-produced Dana Loesch videos the NRA puts out, and from any conservative media I tune into. I ask because I don't see it. Anywhere. Oh: Portland. But I am genuinely curious about the specific incidents of left-violence that has seemingly everyone on the right talking about it.

Mr. koolaid: suppressing ideas? No. Suppressing assholes? Gladly.

Yes I am genuinely concerned.

The left agitators feel justified in attacking others based on their beliefs. They are encouraged by people like maxine waters and they are largely condoned by the media.

Here are a few examples just off too of my head and I'm on my phone just for a minute so it's a pain to copy links

Trump supporters were clubbed and pepper sprayed in San Jose as the police forces the trump supporters out of the area directly into the Protestors and just watched them get beaten and did not intervene.

I watched fergeuson, mo get torn to pieces

The las Vegas shooter (in not using his name) was a pink pu55y hat wearing.

Just pretty much any random weekend in Portland the far left blocks roads and bears up random drivers.

Pundits, media, commentators, Congress representatives, former attorney general's all advocate others to assault, confront, harrass conservatives. Like 50+ examples of this.

The general belief among consevatives is progressives want to suppress dissenting ideas.

Maybe I would be right, maybe I would be wrong. I'm always trying to learn and understand more.

I was curious for myself how it would work out.


I'm still checking in and reading seeing what's going on. I still like guns and stuff. In not trying to inflame anyone

All right I'm in.

Koolaidblue

And...

Drinkthekoolaid, Oct 18, 2018 #25
I've started posting over there. Nothin too juicy yet just trying to get my post count up a little so they don't immediately ban me.

And....

Drinkthekoolaid, Friday at 8:13 AM #39
I've started the infiltration.

Im gradually posting more "triggering" material and ideas.

I see @GOPerfect is already starting. Lol

I might make a glorious post "outting" myself as a conservative and asking then if they will use their tolerance on me or ban me when I'm being quite civil and respectful. I think it will be interesting if they immediately default to suppressing ideas they are not comfortable with.

Let’s find out. Little by little ratchet it up. Moderators are standing by.

Drinkthekoolaid, Friday at 9:11 AM #50
This huckleberry character is already picking up

Yup. And this Huckleberry character is such an asshole too. On this everyone agrees.

For my part I am a liberal gun owner precisely because I want *all* of my rights and not just some of them. The Democrats offer to protect some rights and take away others. The Republicans do they same, but they generally reverse the lists of what to protect and what to take away.

I’m a conservative. First post here. I live in NY.

Im pro LGB, date, marry, have sex with anyone you want.
On the other hand my transgender views are different, I think you should be staying in your bathroom which the sex you were born as. Why? Because there’s a threat to our children. So I’m not really pro Transgender unless you can stay in your own bathroom and not push your beliefs on me and say I’m wrong about my opinions about genders and sex.

Curious about the threat to children. Haven't seen too many news articles - No, wait, I haven't seen Any news articles - about Trans individuals posing a danger to children. You can believe whatever you wish, but beware of making false claims simply because something makes you feel uncomfortable.

Oh, and congratulations on being conservative. I'm a liberal. Glad we've gotten that out of the way.

I believe you honestly hold your opinions true because you've tested them and haven't found them lacking. Good. Folks here like Eris and SikaCZ have now asked you to show evidence that Trans-gender folks using the bathroom they identify with has been dangerous for children. One assumes you mean sexual assault of defensiveness minors and not that girls are psychologically traumatized by seeing a 6' woman with an adam's apple in their bathroom or that boys see a bull-dyke in a tank top with breasts smaller than some of their fat friends.

Because this is the life of a liberal. We call Dems out all the time about their "guns are dangerous" BS all the time. We use many of the same arguments to defend the 2A as Conservatives do. But we do this because we ourselves are tested to provide evidence to support our assertions. We don't hide behind religiosity or "beliefs" when we talk about rights that affect all people in society.

Man up. Show us the evidence or admit that you are just a Believer and hide behind freedom of religion. Then take a seat and stay quiet because the pulpit here is not for folks who don't have the fortitude for truth nor kids who speak before they think.

Because the military may have use for kids who follow orders without thinking but we don't. We are a community of self-sufficient individuals.

A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. I learned that the hard way in sales, in years of climate change lobbying, and in trying to talk with this new breed of 'conservatives'. It's not worth the blood pressure, Eris. When they're ready, they'll come to us for a real conversation. Until then, it just fans the flames. It's just head-butting paradigms.

Um, I was actually making a Monty Python reference, you know. "How can you tell she's made of wood? Build a bridge out of her!"
