This right here was quite the ride.
Compartmentalization of facts. Hallmark of a right-wing authoritarian.

They don't merge information together, that way they can keep believing whatever they want to believe without it causing them to acknowledge the double-think.

Have you considered it wasnt just the left who were protesting the premise of the rally? And it wasnt organized by all those groups. It was organized by Jason Kessler who happens to be a white supremacist. The rally was called Unite the Right.

Also, Trump signed a resolution condemning white supremacy.

"No matter the color of our skin or our ethnic heritage, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God," Trump said.
This is juvenile thinking typical of Trump defenders.

Being pressured into signing a lame petition endorsing an Abramic religion doesn't wipe out your racist history.

Weaksauce defense.

Shall we present all the racist statements and actions Trumps has taken or endorsed?

But please, tell l us again how you can't find anything via Google so you must take a naive skeptical position.

Would you be truly shocked to learn that Trump's mission in life is to destroy America? I wouldn't. The evidence has been piling up for close to 5 years.

Acts of domestic terrorism by white supremacists/nationalists has been public knowledge here for a while. I've posted several articles myself since 9/11 those have groups have posed the greatest threat.

Have you noticed these white supremacists have committed murders in Charlestown, Charlottesville, Pittsburgh, Kenosha, there are others. I'm doing this from memory. Not criticizing but if you are unaware of these you should should be aware. I would say that to anyone.

Not you included but a lot of people who don't know/remember this is because they are living a right wing media bubble. Listening and believing Fox News and Trump begets ignorance.

The Columbine shooters had originally intended it to be a bombing and wanted to outdo the Oklahoma City bombing, which was itself in response to Waco (and Ruby Ridge, another major milestone for White Supremacist leaning right wing gun nut dumbasses). While the Columbine shooters didn't seem to exactly be white supremacists (one of them even wrote about how he felt that racists should be killed in very sadistic manner), there were several Nazi links (I think some early talk was that it might be related to Hitler who killed himself on 4/20, but they'd intended it to be on 4/19 but couldn't get the ammo in time for the 19th; however I think both of them owned some Nazi memorabilia and discussed some adulation for Hitler), and they were planning it to be on the anniversary of the two aforementioned events, which are basically Easter for American White Supremacists, so it certainly was inspiration for it.

White supremacist violence has been a major issue in the US for literally centuries and it regularly bubbles up into intense terrorist acts.

America has a Nazi past that needs to be addressed - I've pointed it out several times on here, but the Nazis got many of their most heinous ideas from America (propaganda techniques, eugenics, concentration camps, even the gas chambers). Hell, even after America demonized the Nazi (and Japanese) medical torture, it perpetrated its own and many people aren't even aware of it having happened. Granted, America's white supremacist problem existed before the Nazis and fed it, it is baffling to me how few people even know the simple links between the Nazis and America, or that America did basically all the horrible shit we view the Nazis so poorly for.

More black on black deaths in Chicago per week than all of White Supremacy deaths in a decade.

But I guess if they keep repeating the lie over and over people will still believe it?

Phew, I'm glad that Random Guy On the Internet came along to prove the experts wrong by calling them liars, I wouldn't have known who to believe otherwise!

Finally someone gets it! We cannot address one single problem in the U.S. until shootings and homicides amongst the black population in Chicago are fixed once and for all. Until there is no black-on-black crime in Chicago, we cannot address one other single issue in the U. S.

Doing this right, Juibbie buddie?

It's just destroy what ever doesn't get you what you want. It's all about ME.

On that note, Trumps in deep with hostile foreign powers. Who said he IS biting the hand that feeds by trying to hurt our country.

OK, but to what end? How would this benefit him?
Re-election. He was trying to keep up appearances everything is fine. Needed that to keep economy going. Didn't matter to him how many people died.

Remember when he took substantial action? Second week in May right after the stock market tanked.

How would "destroying America" help his re-election chances?

edit: what Im getting at is, lets say the fantasy of killing 50% of the population was his goal. He surely figures its those that support him would die first, leaving those who hate him. So whats the agenda here?

We are already close to 200,000 dead now. Could reach 260,000 by election day. So many other things are fucked up but if the economy was good that could get him back into office. At current death pace we would hit 1/2 million early 2021 but guess what, Trump is back in the White House.

You are forgetting one of the biggest beneficiaries of America imploding, Vladimir Putin

11 killed in Chicago last weekend, 53 shot.

How many of those from White Supremacy?

Black lives matter!

I like how you completely ignored Meghan's point that we don't have to solve all other violent deaths before addressing police murdering unarmed black people.

Besides, if you want to address 'everyday' shootings, how would you go about it? Improving education in inner city schools, offering more employment opportunities, and raising the minimum wage to reduce poverty levels? Oh wait, right, the politicians you support oppose all of those things, too.
