You're comparing Internet warriors, who have no political power, to the radical right, which has a monopoly over a good portion of the US, and had perpetuated real problems for a long time. You're whole argument is based on a group's misguided opinion and anecdotal actions. The difference is the radical right has implemented policies and systems that have harmed multiple states and people.

"Radicalizing and poisoning the minds of the next generation" Wow, that's very ironic. I can't properly describe of the culture here, but I described it well enough in my earlier post.

You've been complaining about SJW (I hate this word btw) this whole thread and now you're saying they don't identify as leftist. So what's the deal with radical leftists, then?

Riker explained it best

Also you're complaining about isolated cases.

Oh man. This last part. See, this is another thing that you don't understand. Wanting the confederate flags to come down from state capital grounds does not equal wanting to pretend the civil war never happened. That's a dumb notion. The confederate battle flag (note not the CSA flag) was only popularized way after the civil war during the 50s and 60s, and it was popularized by radical right politicians no less. For example, the South Carolina governor only built that monument as a spit in the face of the civil rights movement. Many southern black people are offended by the confederate flag because it's like a spit in the face to them. Not only does it represent opposition to the civil rights movement, it represents an illegitimate country whose whole economy was based on the forced labor of black people. If you can't empathize a little with the people who were subjugated for so long, it shows where your priorities lie.

I've noticed a huge problem with people, especially conservatives, practicing revisionist history when it comes to the civil war, and this is perpetuated by radical right news outlets who validate their dumbass opinions by spreading misinformation like saying the war was fought over tariffs or states rights. This is only reinforced by the Texas politicians wanting to revise school curriculum.
The difference between the radical left and SJWs is clear as day.The latter identifies as social progressives while the other identifies as liberal.

This is like saying Tea Party supporters are Republicans,they may have joint interests but that's it.

The Civil War was started because the South wanted to secede from the Union,unlike the current story about it being due to slavery.Also it was Democrats or Dixiecrats that originally opposed the civil rights movement back then,which is something they don't teach you in history class.

If removing the Confederate flag is alright,then what's stopping people from removing parts of history?Once you start censoring things like that then it's a slippery slope.

A company is fully justified for firing an employee who said hateful comments, whether it be homophobic, racist, sexist, etc. That is because while working as an employee there, what you post on social media reflects your character and the company's because they choose to associate with you.

Okay,but what if someone kicks up a storm based on nothing more than lies and fabrication?Is it alright for somebody to get fired then?

And I would like to know your opinions on social mobs and how they have the power to harm someone's career.

GLOBAL EVENTS i would laugh my ass off but i live with 3 other people is that your globe?
ALL examples from OP are from USA. Same with your second post (only 2 of them from out of USA but your points were based on what lefties in USA reacted) are you joking or not?
My OP is about the radical right and left in general,and the only reason I mentioned those US related events is because they were recent.Had it happened anywhere like the U.K the point would still be the same.

Now do you have anything else to add or are you going to continue making assumptions about my supposed lack of knowledge regarding things that happen outside America?

Don't worry people. In due time a lot of liberals will understand why the left is evil. They're just slower, gotta give them their time.

You thinking they are the only and most important recent events that just proves you severely lack knowledge on rest of World. Sorry but more important things regarding to left/right wing (or social justice since at that matter) happened since 2014 all around the World. If you prioritize things in OP over many things across the World it just shows you know nothing much about it.

If you wanna talk about UK and left/right wing conflict you could mention their recent elections and the backlash.

Since some people are soooo concerned about international level trends among Right/Left-wing Politics. So IMO:

In America (And Similar Places) : Both are actually working within their sphere of influence, but the Left nuts might seem to be more on air as the mainstream media seems to have grown tird of making fun of the Right nuts.

In Japan and similar places: People might care but really dont make much noise about it.

Greece, India, Pakistan, Somalia and other similar places: Have much more pressing concerns than to split hairs about such things.

But if one is really looking for active Rightwing regimes that might not be with in the tastes of common sensibilities of Westerners one should look at the current so called Caliphate .... while their Left counterpart would be perhaps Sweden.

But since most discussions are America centric, as a alien I would raise a small point: America (as per the media representation) does not seems to have its priorities straight and its politics are begining to resemble something like East Indian Border area politics .... So if long term stability goals are not adapted then things might get ugly.

To say that the counter to an Islamic extremist group is Sweden is laughable. Look to the modern college campus to find left wing extremism.

OP: the left by far. they are becoming fascist. EX:



Which of these two professors was let go? The white male

Which of these two men were killed by the police? The black man! On topic the right wing are by far more controversial and extreme than the left. They feed on minorities and most of them don't care about the low and middle income earners just the rich, that is my opinion.

Very good question. A guy asked me this at the university. The answer is that the radical left is far worse. Why? I'm right-handed, and my wanking is far smoother and silkier with that hand as opposed to my left, where it's far too jerky. So yes, the radical right is the way to go for me. I could be politically correct and say that I am neutral like Switzerland, but I am an honest fellow who simply can't be diplomatic. Ty, and the right rules.

Such instances are not Government sanctioned, Sweden is a few steps ahead in that case ... I think it was made a criminal offense to talk against Immigration there.

Neither of the extremes are ideal, but I think the radical rights tend to be more problematic.

Really, the answers that will be on the thread is leftists saying that the right-wingers are bad, and right-wingers saying the left-wingers are worse. Of course, I feel that the radical left is the worst, because they're the ones that actually are having an actual impact. They feed off of the insecurities of groups, and act as thought police.

The radical right acts through 'God'. I can't tell which is worse honestly. :lol

Hardly at all. :lol.

That's a generalization fallacy. To associate one's political identity with being religious or non religious is absurd. You don't have to be religious to be someone with a radical view on traditionalism. To treat each as the same is simplistic.

I've always stuck to the principle that Radical Left is hypocritical and venomous in spirit whilst Radical Right is mean-spirited and actively dangerous.

I understand I'm generalizing. I'm saying the radical right(Such as the tea party) are religious nuts as well. You couldn't be a tea party member without being religious. The two go damn near hand and hand.

It's a sword VS venom. A sword can kill immediately and is very noticeable, but venom slowly destroys everything undetected.

I'll have to do some research on the Tea Party.
