Hey lefties.

Myself and the right are quite horrified and speak regularly about the horrific sick acts against human rights happening in the Middle East. Homosexuals are having their heads cut off and thrown off buildings in mainstream culture, women are not afforded human rights and have to obey every command of their husband.

We definitely consider ourselves the ones who care about human rights and the worst Opressions. The left couldn’t care less about these poor people or acts.

The left seem more interested in female board members and the date.

The right- standing up for the worst injustice acts in the world and making progress.
Please. Most on the right use the atrocities overseas as merely a "look over there, they treat gays/women worse than us so get off our backs would ya".

Thats not categorising all right wingers (especially the libertarian types who are generally pretty good on social issues).

Trump just gave the Saudi Government a huge weapons deal (despite them still cutting the heads off of people), is buddy buddy with Netanyahu carrying out apartheid, went and bombed Iraq for no reason causing mass civilian casualties.

What a laugh saying the right give a toss about human rights.

Fascism is a mix of right and left extremism.

Pure Right wing extremism is Ayn Rand style anarcho-capitalism where the state is abolished, which is the most extreme and unworkable form a society could take. Basically a wild west type system with no rule of law.

Fascism is essentially the state cozying up to big corporate interests. With a good mix of old fashioned right wing nationalism thrown in.

I love how Antifa use fascism in pursuit of being... anti-fascist. And left wing idiots lap it up like gospel.

You can't muster one example of them acting fascist.

Yet you defend groups who are avowedly fascist.
Antifa and the far left have lots in common with fascist ,in fact fascism is a left wing ideology without question . Let me give you 4 things the far left have in common with Fascists.

1.Both are totally intolerant to anyone with a different political point of view.
2.Will shutdown those who disagree with them by any means possible which includes violence.
3.See no limit to the power of government
4.Both very anti-Semitic

Fascism is a left wing ideology not a right wing.

Ive long said antifa are stupid and counterintuitive. The right use antifa as a "hey look you have extremist nutters too".

However, the vast majority of extremist violence emanates from right wing groups. Antifa are the exception to the rule.

Define " Extremist Violence".
Then what countries are you referring to (Australia, USA etc).

Then some sources would be nice.

https://www.adl.org/news/press-rele...to-domestic-extremists-second-only-to-year-of

"From 2007 to 2016, a range of domestic extremists of all kinds were responsible for the deaths of at least 372 people in the United States. Seventy-four percent of these murders came at the hands of right-wing extremists such as white supremacists, sovereign citizens and militia adherents."

Hitler started by shutting down those who disagreed with him.
Like threatening to delicence news outlets that disagree with you ala Trump?

Will Trump throw them all into concentration camps, as Hitler did?

Trump could bring about world peace and all of those "news outlets" would scream that he failed to win the war...

Not the point. You used Hitler silencing dissent to make a point. I just pointed out that Trump has talked about doing the same thing (luckily the 1st Amendment is there to stop him anyway).

I suppose my point was more that the Left is trying to shut down those who oppose it's agenda.

Why single out Trump when lefties do it aplenty?

I singled out Trump to point out that the right are just as guilty as the left.

Which side of politics is always starting violent protests, consumer boycotts and trying to get people fired who disagree with them ? its always the left

Can you find some videos for of large numbers of right wing protesters violently protesting like the left do ?

Both sides use the most stupid ridiculous examples on the other side to justify what they do and devalue the other.

I’m centre left, but bleeding heart leftists with an oppression complex piss me off just as much as the far right. The far right is probably more dangerous but I think more honest, whereas a lot of the inner city lefties just seem to be lower income types who rent who are angry they will never afford to be able to buy anything they currently live in.

In other words their apparently social consciousness I believe is self serving.

Consumer boycotts are violent now? I’ve heard it all :drunk: Plenty of footage of armed men in combat gear from ‘unite the right’ marches stateside, why take an assault rifle on a march if you have peaceful intentions?

Would have thought the symbolism was pretty clear. You might not like it, but it's not an intention to engage in violence. At least, not at the time.

:drunk: So if they don’t want to engage in violence why march in body armour with loaded assault rifles? Assault rifles have one purpose and one purpose only, killing. Marching armed with implements of death
shows willingness to engage in violence.

The right are pointing it out and discussing it because it is sick and disturbing acts against humanity to murder homosexuals for their sexuality, afford women no basic rights and kill them by stoning if they disobey their husbands, and slaughter people of different faith.

These are the most disturbing sick breaches of human rights, so why do the left entirely ignore it?? Why do they not speak up and stand up for these people with protests and speaking up outraged?? Why are they actually silent and do nothing?

You the left couldn’t care about homosexuals and women oppression, as the most evil acts oppressing women and homosexuals the left actually try to argue against it.

The right are disturbed deeply by this and I can vouch it is genuine as we discuss it quite regularly and want to make change to help these people over there.

We are appalled that homosexuals are killed and women are afforded no rights in the Middle East.

Thank god for the right, or what hope would these people have.

Yu guys on the left keep fighting for the date and more female board members, while the right defend the murdering of homosexuals in the Middle East and women not being allowed to work drive or have an education

Because those groups are for the ownership of weapons in order to protect themselves from the perceived threat of government tyranny. It's the far right equivalent of wearing a giant pussy hat. And yes it does show a willingness to engage in violence - that's the point. It's just not a threat of immediate violence as you were suggesting.

You'd do well to realise when you actually have common ground with those you politically oppose, such as with conditions for women in the middle East. It's disingenuous to suggest the left doesn't care.

ok genuine question , not going to argue with you about it just interested in your perspective.

Why does the left say very little about the abuse women and gay people receive in the middle east ? the left even doesn't seem to say much about the high rates of domestic violence happening amongst indigenous communities , why ?
