Apparently, some on our side have not yet understood that we are facing a facist takeover [View all]

Regarding the assassinations in Minnesota. I hear on MSNBC countless democratic leaders falling head over heels over making sure they inject both sideisn into the discussion.

One was saying we should not discuss whether or not political violence is coming from the right or the left, another one saying we should lower the temperature on both sides, etc...

Where the hell do they find these people?

What about clearly stating that right wing terrorism, with an assist from the white house and GOP is what we are facing now?
