When there aren't 4+ generation deep African American families who 1st were denied the right to vote by slavery, then by Jim Crow, and now by mass incarceration.

The thread itself was an ideological flame war. So in your opinion only conservatives are allowed to respond to this? How does one productively discuss with a person that thinks the most right wing country on Earth (arguably) is becoming Inhospitable to conservatives?

God I wish conservatives actually self censored. This thread is hilarious . It's still illegal to hold office as a Communist in most States but yeah totally it's getting hard to be a conservative in this conservative right wing nation

> This is unacceptable. This is Eastern bloc level authoritarianism.

Nope it's just good old fashioned American police state activities. Once again people on this website love this subtle form of American Exceptionalism where they Pretend that America is not the most oppressive and destructive racist country in history.

If you were a A person of color fighting for your rights, a Communist, or any other ideological enemy of the United States you would realize that this activity from the police is nothing more than a generalization of the official policies of police towards "undesirables" in the 20th century.

It's really cute you think I couldn't have given more examples and didn't just choose an especially messed up example where the United States murdered an artist and then pretended It was a mistake

I think it's a subtle form of white nationalism and American exceptionalism when you pretend that the most racist, backwards, destructive, Country on Earth couldn't have come up with every single one of these policies all on their own

In your opinion was the 1912 influenza released from a lab on a Kansas military base? Will we have to wait for the destruction of the United States to learn the truth?
