I think you're the one who is having trouble communicating. You said that there is an attempt to limit liberties and he/she asked which ones and then you acted like an ass again. So let me ask you, which liberties are there attempts to limit?

Anything from Trump barring CNN, the BBC, The Guardian, etc, from press briefings to Tweeting that the broadcasting licences of new outlets he doesn't like because they, amongst others like the NYT, are 'the enemy of the American people' to not issuing passports to Americans of Hispanic backgrounds so they can't travel to calling for the repeal of the 14th Amendent not ring any bells?

You forget your job as a Russbot here, comrade?

Were any of those wordz 2 big 4 u, or should I dumb it down to hick level?

Your answer didn't show up because your stupidity got downvoted into oblivion, I had to search for it. Those press outlets can ALL still write all the negative stories they want about the president and publish those stories to THE ENTIRE american public. There is no censoring of their stories, there is nobody shutting down their offices or confiscating their printing equipment. If you think the president tweeting mean things at them is infringing on the liberty of the press to say whatever the f**k they feel like, you are completely bonkers. Freedom of the press doesn't give them unlimited access to the government's workings. It merely gives them the freedom to write whatever they like about it.

bit of an older article, but it explains how for more than A CENTURY, there was no such thing as white house press briefing. Do I maybe need to dumb this down more for you?
And the bit about passports.. I'm sure you just FORGOT to mention that those passports had been obtained through fraud. Surely you weren't intentionally being dishonest. Or do you think that fraudulent passports should be continued? I'm sure what's left of Al-Queda would love it if you could pass legislation. Are you done making any more ignorant remarks or do I have to show you up for the retard you are even more?

Don't worry, normal people understood your question. I think he is being intentionally dull so that he can respond using rare words he found in a thesaurus to impress himself. He really reminds me of an immature child. If he is truly an adult, his emotional maturity has not developed much.

Feel like it's gotten nowhere.. libs always love to bring up the guilty pleas and indictments but always fail to mention that none of the charges involve the trump campaign. Be nice when the charade is over. The left has totally blown its credibility about just about everything since the election- you've even weaponized sexual assault allegations now. Pretty despicable tbh. Just more unsubstantiated allegations on top of heaps of other unsubstantiated allegations.. all designed to ruin people in the court of public opinion. Where's the evidence for ANY of the things the left has claimed in the last two years? Its utterly rediculous. The most that you've come up with that's actually fact is russian trolls trying to divide public opinion. If you lost the election because of internet trolls your party has some serious issues to begin with.

"none of the charges involve the trump campaign."

Manafort, Trump's former campaign manager, just signed a full cooperation plea deal with the FBI. He was also present at the 2016 Trump Tower meeting so he will be telling them what was discussed there.

Papadopoulos was Trump's foreign policy advisor, but he has nothing to do with Trump, right?

Flynn was Trump's national security advisor, but he has nothing to do with Trump, right?

PS. badmouthing the press is different than passing legislation that limits them. also different than censoring the press. The president has done neither. They are as free to write any story they like, same as they've always been. There was/is no rule saying the president has to roll over while the press tries to vilify him.

It cracks me up when people call Trump an authoritarian. If he's an authoritarian, he's a pretty laxed one. Maybe these people should travel the world or at least read news articles about countries with actual authoritarians and see how dissent is handled. Seriously, the left makes such extreme claims or loose definitions that the words they use lose their meaning. Words like dictator, rights, extremism, reproductive rights, equality, immigrant, Nazi, racist, gender, sex, fascism, American, citizen. If the left's ideas were so popular, you wouldn't have to redefine words or use euphemisms like "reproductive rights" to mean leagalized abortion. There is nothing reproductive about ending a life.

Nobody. I'm calling multiculturalism segregation. It's just a way to separate people. You can't really be friends with white people, because then you are betraying "the black community". You can't hang with a black guy because then you are betraying your latino heritage. You can't eat a taco because that is cultural appropriation. It's separate but equal all over again.

America was envisioned as a melting pot of ideas and cultures. Keep the good and get rid of the bad. Black culture has given us BBQ (Yum!) and Gansta Rap (Barf!). White culture has given us the sandwich and Justin Bieber. Latino culture has given us Salma Hayek and...wait where was I? All cultures are not equal. American culture is significantly, measurably better. Because we are the best, and sometimes the worst, of all other cultures.

Religious liberty is not a euphemism for anything. Obama/Holder sued The Little Sisters of the Poor - a group of Nuns - saying they aren't religious because they do charity work. Where was the outcry from liberals? The pilgrims came to this country primarily for religious liberty.

It really makes me angry when liberals talk about Trump's "tyrrany". Did he try to put journalists in jail for disagreeing with him? Did he imprison innocent people to further his politics? Did he spy on innocent people? Did he leak the names of innocent people to make them seem guilty of something? Did he let criminals off for politics? Did he have swat teams invade the homes of political enemies in the dead of night? Did he persecute a war hero as payback for telling the truth? Because liberals, especially Obama and Clinton, did all of these.

You are watching tyranny grow in front of your eyes. But it isn't Trump's tweets. It is the liberal machine destroying lives for the simple sin of disagreeing.

I actually upvoted your comment. You are right about many of the pilgrims. They weren't all like that too. People are people. Thomas Jefferson tried to use the heavy hand of government even after he fought for a limited government.
Unfairly slamming McCain? Who cares about that? How many times did McCain slam Trump unfairly? As for Arpaio, he was convicted largely for political reasons. I'm talking about letting hardcore criminals - like the black panthers, who showed up with weapons to intimidate white voters. Yes, hardcore racists too.

My point is very simple, and you are skirting it. The tyranny that liberals ascribe to Trump for SAYING things they don't like is imaginary. The President has free speech like anybody else. The REAL tyranny is right before your eyes and it is coming from the left. You and your kids will likely know the horror of standing in bread lines like in Venezuela, or having your freedom doled out according to a "social rating" (China). You will probably see the abortion of children born two or three years earlier, forced abortions of "undesirables", and mass sterilization. All of these things are being proposed by the far left RIGHT NOW.

Politics is no longer a game where you choose a team and root them on. When George Bush bailed out Wall Street, I was screaming and throwing things at the TV. (Those screens are really tough!) You need to be outraged when liberals do things wrong, not just when Republicans do. Multiculturalism isn't about welcoming other cultures. That's what the American melting pot does. Multiculturalism prevents us from having a single American culture; it divides us into groups that can be more easily ruled over.

multiculturalism is essentially the opposite of integration, so it's not a leap. When you demonize the idea of everyone in a country adopting one culture, even if it's a blend of many(ie melting pot), you are advocating for cliques to segregate themselves.

that totally explains why even after segregation ended, people in the US still tend to live near those that share their culture. Chinatowns, black neighborhoods, latino neighborhoods, white neighborhoods, etc.. that's all 100% integrated, right? If people don't share a common culture, they do NOT integrate. The whole point of the old idea of the melting pot was that you do keep some traditions, you even introduce them into the overall "american culture". Now that's cultural appropriation, and apparently bad. Only chinese people can enjoy chinese culture. Only latinos can enjoy latino culture. Only black americans can enjoy their culture. If you try to adopt the typical "american" picket fence culture, you're suddenly a race traitor. Stupid AF. You people cause the division and you don't even realize it.

Ethnic neighborhoods have been around since before we were a country like you say. There was discrimination against Italians, Irish, Chinese, etc. Ethnic neighborhoods are kept alive largely due to the flow of legal immigrants into this country. It is a good thing, almost like a halfway house for integration, where immigrants can feel comfortable while building a better life. But what we are seeing today is the balkanization of cultures, especially latin immigrants and black Americans. They have largely been sold on the idea that to embrace America and its culture is betraying theirs. That they have to keep themselves separate but equal. That is much different from neighborhoods celebrating people's original cultures while adding to America's culture.
1 up, 6y
yes but over time they integrated and now there's really not much distinction between white neighborhoods; at least not in any of the places I've seen. The irish still have some irish traditions, the germans theirs, but they live next door to each other and don't make a fuss about it. They are americans before they are irish. The big distinctions now are more regional or political than point of origin related - southern vs. northern, eastern vs. western, rural vs. urban, republican vs. democrat etc. Why hasn't this happened with everybody? Or is it preferable to keep people living in seperate mini-communities that distrust each other in order to preserve the home culture?

Integration ideally would be when people stop seeing themselves as chinese or african american or latino, and just as Americans. That was the whole point originally. The ethnic neighborhoods are caused because that isn't happening. Someone has convinced minorities(coughdemocratscough) that it's better to seperate themselves into cliques based on where they came from rather than become full Americans, focused on where they are now.

Yeah having the liberty practice religion actually equals religious liberty whereas having the liberty to abort does not equal reproduction. Now if you lived in a country where it was illegal to have kids, then you could say you were fighting for reproductive rights

What if someone asked you to bake them a white supremacist cake? Fasces and swastikas, the whole shebang. Maybe a happy birthday hitler cake. Would you feel like you should do it despite the fact that you believe everything it stands for is wrong? I'd tell them to shove off. I'm not equating LGBT to hitler or white supremacy - I am simply illustrating the point that if you strongly believe against something it is wrong to be forced to create something celebrating it.

but if the root of that supposed bigotry is based in religion, that is them exercising their religious freedom, is it not? last I checked the baker in CO. said he'd have baked them any type of cake they wanted with the exception of that one. He wasn't unwilling to serve them because they were gay, he was unwilling to make what he saw as a religious cake for something he thought violated his faith. States' rights is also responsible for propelling gay marriage into law and is currently spreading legal marijuana across the country. Maybe it has defended some horrid things in the past, but it's also been a major means for good movements to gain traction as well. Things aren't that black and white.

States' rights also being the only thing keeping the federal government from coming down hard on several blue states atm. :) Be thankful people fought for the right of states to govern themselves in the past, or republican presidents and congress would have a much bigger effect on your life than you might like. It goes both ways.
