Rise of radicalism worrying

[PC2]

If anything a few white trash racists are nothing compared to literal armies of socialists who want to turn our country into a world of communism,

Sure but socialists and communists aren't anymore of a threat than fascists. Society would turn against them if they became violent and without violence there's no way that they could replace liberal democracy and capitalism.

Younger generations are being brought up in a more socially liberal world, and I don’t see that changing. I predict that we’ll eventually get to a point where even being a Republican, is not acceptable in society anymore.

That will be an awesome time to live in.

This actual. If you will allow me to use this to touch on something, I am not trying to speak to you directly just making a point here.

It is the natural progression of society to become more inclusive and accommodating. Societies NEVER become coarser and exclusive as time goes on. There are periods where the contra pushes back within a culture and reestablishes itself in some way, but that is usually transitory and not permanent or enduring across the board.

We, humans, live in societies to make life easier and better for one another. Fundamentally, that is the ENTIRE reason we have tribes, cities, nations, and so on.

In my mother's lifetime, there was a time when women could not open a bank account for themselves or be issued a credit card. Women are never going to go back to not voting, able to drive a car or open a bank account.

LGBTQ, People of color, and other folks are never going to go back on the rights they have gained in macro or over time.

Because the inverse is the contra-position of saying, "If we let women work, will they open bank accounts next? And if we let the negros go to white schools, what's next?"

So the opposition to progression increasingly becomes unstable in a society.

Years ago, I went to a photo gallery for local artists taking photos of the city. That was the theme, Chicago through the years. There was a photo juxtaposed with another about 40 years apart with the plate reading something like; "Change is happening, not as fast you think. But it is happening."

One photo was an all-white neighborhood with anti-equity signs up, and the other was a group of African-Americans in celebration at the same spot after the affordable housing act.

That neighborhood today is a mixed and highly affluent area of Northern Chicago that I can not afford to live there in 2020. Change did happen, and it will never go back.

People in here acting like it's only the right that has psycho cults. Yeah, lets not talk about people like Antifa and Black Lives Matter looting, burning, rioting, and harassing completely innocent people because they're white. They're not racist at all it's only the people on the right...ok.

What I find more concerning is the fact that these liberals are willing to lay down and give up their freedoms and rights to democrats who give out orders like tyrants and act like they're actual laws and then get mad when people and even their own police departments disobey them.

These democrats are being exposed for who they really are, socialist tyrants who want total control over it's citizens and seemingly everyone on the left embrace it. They're not even hiding it either. The ysay it right to the camera They just think the government is going to take care of all of them. That they're going to hold them in their arms like a wittle baby and tell them everything is going to be ok.

So don't pretend like it's only the right. If anything a few white trash racists are nothing compared to literal armies of socialists who want to turn our country into a world of communism, anarchy, and racial supremacy who silence and destroy anything in their way that doesn't align with their agenda. The fact that democrats have hardly said anything about them to denounce their actions says volumes. Yet there they were asking Trump to denounce white supremacy for 4 years when he's already said it about 20 times.

You sound like your avatar looks.

What do you expect when people call me a white straight male that is born with white supremacy and only got things in his life because of my skin color.
Ofc i become more radical and the more you push me the more i will start to resist, and this is the result of the left and that they are very racist toward white people btw.

Speaking as a straight white male, nobody thinks that shit about you because of those things.

Take some personal responsibility and stop playing the victim.

Yeah, like 90% of them are. Good thing you noticed this.

Fascism has no problem mixing in with capitalism.

lol it's just paranoia. All society has to do is convince people to never be violent and coercive and to judge people purely based on the individual. If we do that then the extremists and authoritarians will go away. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Nearly everybody supports violence when it benefits their goals. The politicions you support are included in that.

This is inaccurate, hysterical, and ignorant.

Firstly, the property can never supersede the value of the people. Philosophically, this is incorrect. So the cause or concern about what anyone is 'burning or looting' in relation to property is null.

Antifa, is not a group. Anyone can be 'Antifa', and everyone OUGHT TO BE in modern society. Antifa is just a political movement; a political position opposed to fascism. Which again, every modern human being ought to be opposed to and in support of... unless you are a fascist. Then you would have a reasonable ground for opposition. People interested in a democracy most especially should be sympathetic with anti-fascism- that's the whole vibe, man.

Black Lives Matter is both a political movement and desperate groups of local organizers that share that political belief. There is no BLM group or mandate that destruction of property or harassment is carried out as part of the political beliefs of BLM. There is no credible source that BLM as a movement or holistic political group is 'looting and rioting'- which even if they were the political belief in their sovereignty and equality Invalides concern for the property at the sake of humanity- again, this is an ignorant position and notion to even have in the first place and would invalidate one's own contra belief as hypocrisy.

Tell me, who is leaving the white house in January?

This is a misunderstanding on your part. That's not what white supremacy is about, how it works per se and no one is implicitly thinking that of you personally.

Ofc i become more radical and the more you push me the more i will start to resist, and this is the result of the left and that they are very racist toward white people btw.

You're only radicalized because you don't understand everything you are reading either discreetly or as a whole. Which if it actually were as you think, would be offensive to you personally. Damn straight!

Racism isn't even used or means in the context you are using here. Again, you just got it all wrong and the work to understand is (likely) not engaging enough for you to spend the time learning and deciphering. I understand to a degree. But ignorance is the problem here.

For the time being the far right worry me more as they have far more political power, the crazy left have more cultural power but have been unable so far to translate it into the kind of political power that the right has.

I used to call myself "left" of the center, which was a few a couple ticks left of Bill Clinton when he was president.
But radicalization of the left has been shameful and an embarrassment to anyone with an education in civil rights. And I won't ever consider myself anything politically.
