(3,575 posts)the radical right wants to remake the country in their own image and kill anyone who doesnt like it. Thats not an equivalency.

(34,373 posts)hypocrites the right are, it's either their way or no way. Such ignorant people. And that fucking cult is pitting Americans against Americans. Putin's plan and his puppet gladly agree. Donald a Russian asset??? Damn straight he is.

(3,472 posts)The left wants normalcy. The right, not so much. That's why we appear as 'radical' to them.

(69,629 posts)POS felon will never STFU about the numerous lies of calling out the "radical left" He is giving the "radical right" their red meat.
And there will be blood, if he keeps up with his vitriol and hate. He's such a SF.
All these crimes have been instigated by the RIGHT. We know the truth.

(3,179 posts)The one's who wanna give you cheaper health care, a more robust life with an income you can afford a house with. A retirement secured off the back's of billionaires who already have too much money. A place in society where you can be who you wanna be, where ALL people respect that. A society where white collar crime or crime by rich people is treated equally to violent crime or crime by mostly poor people. A society that recognizes the damage done to society through treatment of indigenous people and slavery. Finally people who want a president who doesn't live off of vengeance and rage and has some intellectual curiosity.
Basically anybody the MAGA consider the bad guys

(5,673 posts)To the right-wingers, *everything* is "radical left."
pat_k
(13,855 posts).. human-rights, rule of law, religious freedom, self-governance, and economic justice, and the thinking underlying those values, among them rationality, compassion as a moral imperative, and scientific inquiry, is "radial left."

(12,189 posts)Yep. The media pulls out the false equivalency card every time the right wing's radical rhetoric causes something horrific to happen. And this time, that rhetoric is compounded by their dear leader's & his actions since Jan 2025.
The left? Hello? You may notice they never have any examples of the "Radical Left". Because there are none! If we're radical about anything, it's truth, justice and what used to be called the American way. It's Medicaid, Medicare, Women's reproductive rights and a roof over everyone's head! It's human kindness, LOVE for your neighbors, color and nationality blindness. Free breakfast & lunch for all kids in school and a superior Educational system! EMPATHY!

(93,904 posts)I agree it's not the same based on things like support from mainstream politicians.
The democratic party officials would mostly condemn the extremist.
The extremists are also mostly opposed to the democratic party unlike with how they control the Republicans and Trump easily became their nominee.
Montauk6
(9,340 posts)The ones who condemned DU and tried their own version.
The ones who boost Jill Stein
The ones who abandoned Harris
The ones who believed that Hillary losing was a good thing because it would force the country to rise up in a general strike (they love general strikes)
The ones who are still running with Ralph Nader's playbook... a quarter-of-a-century old, btw.
The ones who hate Biden for the Omnibus Crime Bill... and give Bernie a pass for also voting for it.

(9,372 posts)It could have been someone on the right who disagreed with something (or some things) he said. It could have someone apolitical but seriously disturbed. It could have been a false flag.
I will believe it was someone on the left only if irrefutable evidence is found.

His recent pictures show him clean shaven. I thought he looked more like a "true revolutionary" with a beard.
BTW, this is what I consider to be the "far left" in the USA - a completely marginalized and almost invisible group.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
