Or are both accusations inaccurate and unfair?

 

Sure, feel free to continue believing the behaviors are equivalent, but I don't recall conservatives protesting at justice's home when they don't like a decision made.  With the support (at least tacitly) of the administration. 🙄

So you're saying you don't recall conservatives protesting a decision they didn't like with the full support of a Republican administration? 🙄  Or are you trying to paint my point into a corner with a ridiculously narrow form of equivalence? 

 

Whether you believe it or not, shit stinks equally on both sides.

Oh, so humorous.  Yes, conveniently leave out the qualifier and pretend I made a statement about protesting in general when that is clearly not what I said.  I'm not painting you into any corner, but it seems like you have some concern your argument maybe can't stand up to the scrutiny.

 

Comfort yourself with your assessment of the relative vaporous characteristics of feces, but there are times when it is clear that certain behaviors are in support of things which are plain wrong, and even harmful to society.  For example, behavior of Antifa groups.  Convince me there's an equivalent.

Oh so shocking how absolutely right you are. Clearly I'm mocking your narrow one sided accusation. No argument here, liberals do what they do, and I derive no comfort in pointing out the malodorous behavior of both terminally brainwashed mindsets. Again, with many issues, including abortion, wrong is always in the eye of the beholder. It would suggest selective nose blindness for either side to say there is no equivalence in stench.

 

Without extreme rightwing fascism, extreme leftwing "anti fascism" aka antifa would not exist.  Convince me there's no equivalence.

Fascism : a way of organizing a society in which a government ruled by a dictator controls the lives of the people and in which people are not allowed to disagree with the government. the rise of Fascism in Europe before World War II.

 

 

Sounds more like a left government than the right? 🤷‍♂️ Forced vaccinations, big government control, protest groups demanding the government force their opinions and preferences...

National Socialism or Democratic Socialism has more in common with Marxism / Communism than it does in what we think as American conservatives as "right wing" politics. The idea's pulled from what we consider right wing are duty, discipline, law and order but other wise they were against Democracy, Capitalism and Freedom. Both wanted the state to control the economy with the major difference between them the ownership of property.

 I believe that the real reason the two ideologies despise each other is because they are the same and differ only on semantics and who owns what in their economy, much the same as siblings arguing.

Sounds like? Come on now, let's tell the whole story. Fascism came into prominence in Europe during the 20s as Italy and eventually Germany's response to the post WWI economy. It was based on homogenized rightwing ideology with division along ethnic/religious lines, extreme ethno-nationalism, and nostalgia for a mythic past.

 

Other "liberalized" Western countries adopted ideologies that focused on the future and the novelty of an industrial economy. Greed and overoptimism being their common poison, after 1928 and the Great Depression, fascist shit festered and it ushered in WWII. 

 

Forced vaccinations and big government are false equivolants here, and both sides have protest groups demanding our Divided States government force their own bias opinions and preferences... Like it or not, that's the nature of our dysfunctional two party politics. I strive to have a love/hate relationship with both, but lately I'm too F'n disgusted to have sympathy for either.

Well John, if it is not reported on CNN MSNBC etc, then it is a FOX lie..............duh!!! 🤣  I'm so sick & tired of listening to the blindness of the libtards & such.  I do NOT deny that some of the conservative news is shaky & possibly fake news, but the left has taken it WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY beyond even lying.  It is treasonous to our country.  The fun part is listening to the libtards & those that denounce everything else, even the news reports on the conservative side! 😁😎  I couldn't care LESS, what any of "those people" think any more.  I used to listen & hear them out..............not any more.  Mid term elections 2022 could not come soon enough 🙏 & 2024 is gonna be BRILLIANT!!

The thing is the GOP would have the midterms in the bag if they would have just left the Dems to step on their own dicks and stood back and watched. They couldn't help themselves and started this whole anti abortion stuff where most of the population is ok with the freedom of choice. Funny the Dems being the freedom people in this instance but the abortion issue is a third rail, like gun control is for the left. The left always screams for gun control but nothing really every happens except for a run on guns and ammo that never gets banned. The high prices for guns and ammo are because of supply and demand not that the left had made any progress on banning them. Like I said I will sit back and watch the race to the bottom.

The Roe v. Wade issue hasnt even tipped the needle for the Dems.. Its increased the registration on the GOP side by 15%.... The Dems saw no uptick. They still lose.
