It must be a conspiracy!

"I don't want them to sue me next."

Yes, but terrorist groups were never banned. Your point?

MAGA is a terrorist group.

Im not a f**king terrorist.

That's what a terrorist would say.

JESUS F**KING CHRIST IM NOT A TERRORIST IM A 15 YEAR OLD GIRL TRYING TO LIVE MY LIFE IN PEACE
LITERALLY F**K OFF

If you want to live your life in peace, I'd quit MAGA. They are aggressors.

Got it.

Trolling a stream is your idea of "live my life in peace?"

Making the opposite view out to be terrorists is not effective in changing minds.

I'm not interested in trying to change closed minds. I''m interested in stopping violent racists, misogynists, and homophobes.

The problem with that is that there is a useless disagreement over who is the terrorist. Someone isn’t a terrorist for disagreeing with you, put your energy into a valid criticism.

I'm not talking about simple disagreement. I'm talking about physically attacking the Congress, threatening election workers, and beating and killing LGBTQ and people of color. I'm talking about fascist terrorism, and it should be met with force, not words.

In short: stop pretending to be morally superior and say something we haven’t all heard a thousand times.

I stand by my statements.

Which is the same talking points leftists like you say.

You are the one labeling me, who supports gun ownership, lower income taxes, and limits to abortion, as a leftist. That's from a far-right perspective.

You said that “MAGA is a terrorist group.“, surely not all 74,223,975 of the people that voted for Trump are terrorists. Say what you mean, you mean a certain portion of trump supporters are terrorists (even if a slightly larger portion than democrats), so say that. You are only making your argument weaker by resorting to “they are terrorists”.

No, not everyone who voted for Trump would identify with the MAGA movement.

But the MAGA movement is clearly willing to engage in violence and intimidation against civilians in order to further their political goals. The literal definition of terrorism.

Please see the Jan 6th insurrection. See the armed masked men hanging out near voting locations. Please reference the threats of civil war and rioting if the elections don't go the way they want them to.

F**KING FACTS MY GUY

Well, someone just called me a terrorist. Im sure you’ll look over that tiny detail.

No one has called you, specifically, a terrorist in this thread. I just read through the comments here.

However. If you agree with the attempted insurrection on Jan 6th. Or think that hanging out by voting locations with masks and guns is a good idea. Or that a civil war should happen if candidates you support don't win... well.... that's the literal definition of terrorism.

Actually I was just called a terrorist, I went ahead and flagged those comments.

No one said that you, specifically you, were a terrorist. The closest that comes is "that's what a terrorist would say."

Which is both a comedy and accurate response. Because "that's what X would say" is a very common comedy response to any denial. But in a very accurate sense, yes, Terrorists do not see themselves as terrorists. They use words like 'patriot' and 'freedom fighter' to describe themselves.

So. If a statement like "MAGA is a terrorist group" feels like you're being labeled a terrorist, that's you applying meaning that is not in the text.

However, the MAGA movement is willing to use violence against civilians to achieve political goals. Voter intimidation at voting locations by hanging out with guns. Jan 6th insurrection. Claiming that there will be a civil war if the candidates they support lose.

This is the literal definition of terrorist.

If saying that MAGA is a terrorist group causes you to feel that you're being labeled a terrorist, you should reconsider your affiliation with that group.

And I understand that if you are truly a 15 year old girl, you're likely surrounded by parents and other adults that tell you that you're part of that group (because they are). I would suggest you take the time to consider your values and are they really represented by that group.

I never said I agreed with any of that, I just want everyone to see the stupidity in arguing and shit like this. Please leave me alone.

If you want to be left alone you should reconsider posting pro-MAGA comments in this stream.

Yes, but I’m just trying to see peoples other point of views. I’m sorry if I sounded rude, it’s hard for me to know what I come across as because I am on the spectrum.

Yeah, I was totally serious with that. It's not meant to be offensive, it's meant to show the left/right political line is one-dimensional, subjective, and myopic.

Lmao ok
I meant on the autism spectrum?

Understood. Why do you support MAGA? You might want to read trump's niece Mary's book decribing his malevolent fragile narcissism and their dysfunctional family.

Like I said, I’m still learning and don’t fully support anything yet. My family is conservative and we are from Texas, so yeah lol

Yikes! My bad!

It’s ok lmao

That’s so bad it’s funny
Hats off to you for making an autistic person laugh with a semi offensive meme lmao

Yeah, I don't consider MAGA to be conservatives, but radical reactionaries/fascists. And there's a big difference between honorable, principled conservatism and MAGA.
