Saying we’re too divided and in the same breath casting divisive blame is… Not even surprising anymore.
Reader-mode works too!
Glad that works and thanks for sharing the tip, getting webpages in a format where they’ll load well for the most people is getting tougher everyday
Welcome to the definition of orwellianism.
saying we are too divided while casting blame is entirely self consistent, if one’s actual implied position is “we think everything bad is your side’s fault, we want it to stop existing, and then there wouldnt be a division anymore”.
LOL, all of these are dopey, but CRT?
Put your hand in the bowl. Grab as much shit covered spaghetti as you can. Now throw it at the wall.
Repeat this on multiple stations a day 24/7 and it won’t matter how ludicrous it sounds, it’ll stick. You’ll be covered in it. It’ll be fuckin everywhere.
Black people:
MAGA: CRT made us shoot each other!!!
Not those damn cathode ray tubes! I thought we got rid of em all!
CRT ? The shooter is white.
But the CRT made him hate white people. /s
Except that’s exactly what they think.

The whole tone down the reterict thing makes me shake my head. Only one side has that reterict.
You mean rhetoric? (Sorry if I’m out of the loop and this is an intentional misspelling. I’m even more sorry if this is actually spelled correctly somehow!)
I have not looked it up yet but there is 10 billion percent chance I spelled it wrong.
“Everyone except us!” -gop
“We are all domestic terrorists” - GOP
The party of personal responsibility can never seem to accept responsibility for anything
Well, the god of the Bible is a malevolent narcissist, and they do strive to be godly.
The stupid bit is they’re supposed to strive to be like Jesus.
But they’re unironically being pretty malevolent narc.
“shooting”
Politically motivated violence. I wonder if we have a word for it.
Trump wasn’t clipped by a boomerang.
Well of course they are. Anybody with half a brand new they were going to do that the second that the news came out about the assassination. I sure did.
It’s their go to move
Looks like it’s the consequences of their own actions circling around again. Time to blame liberals/trans/minorities/foreigners/anybody else!

Looks like it’s dems and “critical race theory” this time, which makes zero sense on all fronts.
I do hope the daily show has the guts to do the mashup of trump’s violent rhetoric paired with the fox news broadcasters tone policing democrats
It’s actually kinda funny watching them flail around blaming nothing and everything because one of their own tried to shoot Trump. They were NOT prepared to deal with this situation at all.
Has more been confirmed other than last voter registration?
If nothing gets released (like very little was released about the mini-arsenal, bump-stock Las Vegas mass shooter) he’s probably right wing. If there’s anything leftist about it you can bet they’ll dig for every possible way to exploit it.
We may never be able to put him on so narrow a box, but he was registered, a gun nut, and he didn’t donate to Dems - that was just someone with the same name in the same state.
That’s not confirmation, but thus far there isn’t any reason to believe otherwise.
But also he was 20. It’s likely he didn’t have a strong personal affiliation with any political party.

What additional evidence do you need? He was asked directly by the state what party he considers himself a supporter of, and he said Republican.
Conservatives are going to try to disown him no matter what. Don’t let their endless bad faith requests for additional proof convince you that the facts here aren’t straightforward.
No no no. Voter party affiliation on voter registration doesn’t mean anything on its own. People change their registered parties all the time to vote in the other party’s primaries and such. Also sometimes people forget to switch back.
For kids, their party affiliation is going to be whatever their parents are (lest they be disowned by their family). For kids, their political views can and do change radically from 18 to 25.
Party affiliation on voter registration means nothing in the case of the shooter.
kids
…
18 to 25
I don’t think you know what a kid is…
Fine, young adult, whatever. My point still stands. Young new voters are most likely to be registered with the same party affiliation as their parents. It doesn’t mean the shooter is actually a republican.
Not in any way that will convince someone who doesn’t want to believe it, but for reasonable folks…
Smith shared an American history class with Crooks, and remembered a mock debate where their teacher made students stand on one side of the classroom or another to signal their allegiance. “The majority of the class were on the liberal side, but Tom, no matter what, always stood his ground on the conservative side,” Smith said. “That’s still the picture I have of him. Just standing alone on one side while the rest of the class was on the other.”
This was years ago. Kids change really quickly as they grow up. Ask me how I know. I used to be a kid in high school who was spouting my parents’ bullshit conservative christian views. After high school I started thinking for myself and left all that toxic garbage behind.
I’ll use that counterargument the next time someone brings up how he donated $15 to pacblue when he was 15 to convince me he’s a crazy left wing antifa whackjob or similar. Edit: Apparently that donation has been debunked anyhow. So on the balance of available evidence…
Kids today are spending too much time learning woke pronouns and not enough time learning how to shoot an apple off a fence at 300’
Yeah, couldn’t be all of that political violence they, the Republican party, have been preaching about and encouraging for decades now.
Definitely woke shit and not guns.
