In reply to the discussion: I know a couple of Right Wingnuts who insist Liberals are being manipulated and incited to Civil War [View all]Jamastiene
(38,206 posts)35. We are not the ones carrying assault rifles and randomly going around
killing minorities while they know they can get away with it. None of us have gone around doing anything violent. They are though. Someone should ask them why they feel the need to go around brandishing high powered guns and threatening people, including lawmakers in our own government.
Things got so crazy so fast because the biggest crazies of them all are in charge of our federal government right now. Trump is so nonsensical and incites violence time and time again. He makes fucking Dubya look sane in comparison. That's pretty fucking bad when a war criminal looks sane in comparison to the amount of crazy we are facing right now from Trump, his admin, and his worshipers.

Blaming their victims for the violence they suffer is a hallmark of the far right
