DarrinS on comparing Trump to Hitler:
DarrinS on comparing a high school student to Hitler:
Someone is going to have to explain to me the Hitler comparison to Hogg. It's just sad if want to know the truth, and by the way, these are grown adults making these claims.
it's probably a mistake to think of the comparison as a direct analogy, or as setting forth a truth claim. it's more like a performance.
like judging what DJT says. he doesn't give a damn whether what he is saying about something is true or false, but he is signalling to others what at ude they should take toward it.
Which parrots like Chris take up on.
If you watch Chris carefully, he only posts about things that are talking points from the administration. Whenever he is asked about something not on those talking points, you get a "I need to research it" response.
Vaguely bot-like behavior.
Not peculiar indeed, but Chris says or believes nothing until he sees what he is supposed to believe.
He is incapable, or unwilling, to have his own opinion.
In regards to media companies, therein lies the ultimate disease. Right-wing media makes it money by presenting endless streams of propaganda that dehumanizes and delegitimizes liberals, through bizarre distortions meant to stoke outrage and become fodder for forwarding of emails.
Both sides are not equal in this regard. There is no left-wing mirror to pervasive underground army of prognosticating Limbaugh wannabees and the ethics black hole that is Fox "News".
Sure there is.

Typical "our doesn't stink" from the moonbats![]()
You think yours doesn't? Narcissism of small differences, tbh.
If you think ideology trumps you got a long row to hoe.
Did you even keep up with the Republican primaries?
You are telling this board the Republican Oligarchy funded Trump in that field? Seriously?
You and the Democrats completely missed the fact that Trump bit into a huge chunk of the white middle and lower class along with young white voters not liking their future prospects. Ask yourself how? Look at the Democratic primary and the outrage Hillary gathered. Where did this come from?
Do you see the parallel in the message?
Wake up! What did Trump and Sanders both use as a a whipping post? The access to the powerful who hypothetically run the government. The blue team might lose again if they don’t get this. Luckily, Trump has alienated enough Hispanics and blacks that your team might win by default next cycle.
What was in the bag Walter?
"You are telling this board the Republican Oligarchy funded Trump in that field? Seriously?"
you said that, I didn't.
"You and the Democrats completely missed the fact that Trump bit into a huge chunk of the white middle and lower class along with young white voters not liking their future prospects. Ask yourself how?"
"post-election research has shown" that Trash's cult bought his LIE that blacks, browns, immigrants were to blame for Trash's supporters' poor economics prospects. iow, racism dominated, not economics. Repug establishment was pissed at Trash for shouting their racism, stealing their racism that they had cultivated implicitly, dog-whistlting-ly, for decades.
"Look at the Democratic primary and the outrage Hillary gathered. Where did this come from?"
VRWC had been accusing, sliming, slandering Hillary for 25 years, (Comey helped enormously, even decisively)
and they still are obsessed with using Hillary, as they do with racism and immigrants,
to keep the Repug base inflamed, emotional,
to distract the base from the fact the Repugs under the oligarchy are the reason the Repug base, Trash's cult, are so ed.
The political brilliance of the Repugs is obtaining the "white working class" votes while screwing the WWC economically, for decades.
"Wake up!"
G F Y and your eternally ty takes.
"What did Trump and Sanders both use as a a whipping post?"
Trash used racism, xenophobia as his main campaign topic.
btw, Repugs refuse to "fix immigration" because they need it as an inflammatory, distracting campaign topic
"The access to the powerful who hypothetically run the government."
hypothetically ? G M A F B from your ty takes.
Trash, "elitist" so-called billionaire, dishonestly ridiculously, laughably railed against the oligarchy, BigFinance, and then embraced the oligarchy, BigFinance once in office.
His cultish base DOESN'T ING CARE what he does. Nor do the evangelicals.
Bernie HONESTLY took the same approach, and post-election, HONESTLY, CONSISTENTLY still does.
What does drain the swamp mean? You are getting confused between two different elections.
The base is 30% of the electorate.
Hillary probably has a larger base that was always hers.
The vote was incredibly EVEN.
You still don’t get it.
So how did Trump win the Republican primary out of that huge field? Ask yourself that. If it was not $, how? You still won’t look, you are afraid because of what this really says. Democrats don’t use the so called Oligarchy $... ? You don’t want to get it. What did YOU think about Hillary before her coronation.
