You've been looking in the wrong direction, the dangers are coming from the right.

You have sick pay, workplace safety regulations, paid time off, quality standards etc, etc, etc because of loons like these.

If you have women in your life, they can thank similar loons for the right to vote, own property, work and so on.

History will look favorably on the loons, and judge those who dismissed them harshly.

What that person said is happening is literally happening right on this thread, we had a series of posts a couple days back when someone finally admitted that Trumps and his supporters from the far right are recognizable from each other.

Now people are trying to redefine what is harmful behaviour and to limit that to being the far right so that they can try to pretend it's just extremists who are problematic.

Like we're going to forget that Trump met with what is accurate to now describe as an antisemite/Hitler fan and a white supremacist and that the Judiciary GOP twitter account kept this tweet up for nearly 2 months before deleting in the past couple days.

There were no shortage of Trump/right wing fans around here for the last few years. Deleting accounts and trying to change the narrative won't change that.

What are you even talking about? This is just a collection of subheadings that have seemingly been written by someone who didn't turn on a TV, radio or web browser in probably a few years.

Already demonstrably pointed out, it hasn't.

Incredible horsesh*t in a world that has examples of establishment politicians like Johnson, Putin, etc, where the left were demonised for wanting police reform apparently that means they are in support of authority, when they support the trans movement they now apparently are the ones behind conformity and as Conservatives ban school books and classes throughout the US and 'noisy' protests in the UK and any sort of protest in Iran, the left are actually the ones behind censorship?

Lol. This is brilliant. The government buildings was the capitol on the day of counting votes to democratically complete the constitutional defined election process. Way to try to hide that.

Nor is it now. Conservatives in the US fell for a man with a gold plated apartment and several failed businesses, they are currently in the thrall of the worlds wealthiest man as he is letting Nazi's back on the biggest social media platform in the world and trying to target Democrats with his platform. In the UK, the right wing media and individuals are categorically on the side of big business across all current pay disputes. Like, are you really arguing that the right represents the working class? In the US, Trump/Republican financial initiatives have been almost exclusively to the benefit of corporation's. FFS, Conservatives have voted against sick pay for rail workers this past week.

For me, the old school prudes are the ones banning abortion and getting annoyed about people in drag, no?

As you've written it, this sentence is actually true. Must have been a mistake.

You're more concerned about supposed Left legislation that you say will be intended to restrict or silence, than actual legislation that has done that?

Hate speech has been shown to lead to hatred, violence, discrimination and other acts up to and including Genocide, should our societies not act to try to prevent such things happening?

Again, see UK Tory government policing bill and comments by Sunak, posted here, to see where this is coming from in the real world rather than some random prediction of what it is the Left would do, or want to do. Iran action against protesters, Putin action against protesters, Trumps gassed protestors for a photo op and begged Governors to use force on protesters.

On a day that the former Republican President announced that the constitution should be ignored and him installed as President, and after he incited an insurrection this is just mindboggingly nonsensical. Like, I know you 'thought' as you typed sentences, but the ability to type this stuff while ignoring what is literally happening right now in front of all us takes some sort of effort. Incredible. Not the first time we've seen it, previously in history there was the known tactic of 'saying a lie repeatedly and eventually, enough people will believe it', we saw it with Comical Ali before despite the evidence on the screens in front of us and we saw it on this thread this past week where people tried to insist Brexit was not driven by right wing ideologues.

Those last two posts were pretty incredible to read. I hope people will come back with evidence to support their view that these issues are driven by Left wing ideologues rather than the examples I have given of right wing practices to those effects.

The same day, the same fu*king day, that Trump cones out with this, Musk is pushing right wing conspiracy theories on Twitter and armed Proud Boys are stopping a Drag show being held in Ohio, they, with supposedly a straight face, claim the Left are the fascists.

I've seen a lot of nonsense on here over thr last few years, that's gone straight to the top of the list.

I'd give them credit for it being an exercise in Gaslighting if I thought for a second they had the capacity to formulate such a plan.
