The thing is Democratic supporters in entertainment are affecting the young voters.

 

I love Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert as far as their comedy.  I used to watch it all the time but I stopped watching it because they just couldn't stop ripping on Republicans, specifically Trump.

 

I want to watch comedy for comedy, not to hear more political jargon.  I want to get away from it and have my mind on something else.  But it wouldn't stop.
Jay Leno then had some comments after Colbert was cancelled and he basically said they went too far with their political commentary.  You divide an audience and that's what they did.

 

I refuse to believe the Dems are that dumb, as you said, it was nonsense some the policies they were standing on.  It wasn't they they feel this was a better policy, common sense says its not, but their play was "everything the Red stands for, do the complete opposite."  That's been their platform even though there are a lot of principles that both parties align on....like illegal immigration.  But now they're not aligned just because the Dems want to be anti-Republican.

the entertainment industry has always been on the blue side.  it really doesn't mean that much to me as long as the politics are kept at a minimum.  when it's the heavy basis for comedy of a show, it looses me too.  i'm also not someone who refuses to watch a movie because of a political view of an actor.  i have no idea why that bothers anyone.  

 

your last paragraph is the big one.  there's definitely a resistance, and feeling of no because it's trump.  i get it, but much of that was trumps doing over the years.  i just don't remember this level of anger concerning politics.  i'm not blaming it on trump, but i will call him out for leading this country out from it. 

 

when he addressed the kirk murder, he immediately started attacking and calling out the other side.  not that he wasn't in the right, but maybe it's time to be a leader.  maybe it's time to temper all of this back, and unify this country.  he didn't...at all.  as much as liberals play that no because of trump card, the maga group blames every one of their own mistakes on the left boogey man.  common sense has been thrown out the window on both sides, and we need someone to help walk this country through this imo.

you think one poster on a bulletin board is more volatile than i do.

This is where you lack discernment in your reading. I have expressed my opinion and it has nothing to do with “one poster” despite you trying to make it such. You are veering towards disingenuousness.

It took two minutes to find those. I can post hundreds more. What are you saying it's all AI or something?

 

If you consume legacy media and are busy running a business you have zero chance of hearing anything about this. Even Fox News.

 

C'mon man are you seriously blaming social media for ginning this up when the only way you could possibly learn about the explosion of this crap online and on campuses is BECAUSE a post Elon acquisition Twitter/X exists.

i completely understand what your opinion was.  have at it.  i also have the opinion that many on here are easily played by what they consume, even at the smallest level.   that type of talk is never good, but the fear you have over it is unfounded to me.  you'll be fine.

On a lighter level, that's the NFL draft every year on TBD.

 

"I read these scouting reports so I think he will be good and if anyone disagrees, they're wrong.  If the coaches don't draft them, they don't know what they're doing and should be fired."

 

I fell into that with Josh Allen.  I read more negatives about him, specifically accuracy and I was bummed when we drafted him.  I wanted Rosen because those scouting reports had more positives, he was more pro-ready.

That's all it took for me to get on the Rosen train.

of course you can post more.  you post them constantly.  do you realize your one of the top posters on this forum because you post like a maniac every day.  i'm not telling you not to, but you're the exact type of person who consumes all day, from a directed feed, made specifically to agree with out.  i don't blame social media, i blame people that don't understand what they're getting.  do you really think this takes up a large portion of campus life?  i guarantee it doesn't, but you sure don't realize that because your reality on college campuses is what's being pumped into that brain of yours.

 

you know why most media outlets including fox news won't show this?  it's not hardcore news.  it's fringe news that you want to consume.  i've heard on here about how colleges are a scam...how colleges are programing anti-americans, etc.  it's the great dumbing down of america.  just because you find news that fits your narrative, don't assume that other can't find proper news on their own.

I'm aware of my posting volume. Your contention is also weak and shared by some of the most comical posters the board has to offer.  Don't be weak.

I know it exists on campuses way more than it did previously. And not just from social media as I spend a large amount of time at large universities and have seen it first hand.

So we've heard a lot about your opinion on why the documented rise in violent rhetoric and actual violence from people openly associated with the militant trans community are nothing burgers.

 

Question. If the recent school shootings in Nashville and Minneapolis were done in the name of MAGA, would that be fringe news that you'd have to go search for in your algorithm generated social media silo?

 

No answer necessary.

What is gay crime ?  Is it crime committed by a homosexual? Or is it someone who robes a pink boat, thigh high leather boots, and a Tom Brady jersey?

are you aware of your posting volume?  you're the top poster on the entire two bills drive forum...during the football season.  it's wednesday and you're at 260+.  i don't know how you would even have time to read through what you post unless you spend a shocking amount of time on it.  just posting because of headlines is week.

no you haven't...at all.

dude...i don't care what side they were on.  they're ***** shooters and it's awful.   and are you trying to push off school shootings as fringe news?  i wasn't.  fringe new is what you post again and again and again.  that sign was fringe news, but you so desperately need it be something.  charlie was killed by a crazy kid who didn't share the same ideas as daddy.   these kids are not well, and i get that they attach onto these groups.  they're lost and i agree with you on that.

I should have been clearer. Would the fact that if the shooters acted in the name of MAGA  have been fringe news and downplayed like how the trans Nashville and Minneapolis shooters were?

 

I've been on large public university campuses up and down the East Coast a lot over the past half dozen years. I've seen it. It's worse.

 

Your head is in the sand dude.

Mocking a person with brown skin. Sad. I guess it’s because he was a republican. Still sad. Sad.

i don't think the shooters in either city were down played.  i saw everything play out on common media.  there didn't seem to be any question who they were to me at least.    i also go to eastern universities for continuing ed.  i see run of the mill common campuses.  maybe we see completely different things through our own lenses.  i'm not denying it exists at all, but i think were giving some college kids far too much credit on their political motivations.  my head isn't in the sand over it, i just don't feel it's at the point were universities are programing their students in droves.

Serious question:  What is transgender ideology?

 

If a person believes that gender dysphoria is rare but legitimate and that transgender people deserve civil rights the same as anyone else, can't that be considered a reasonable (non-radical) position?  Assume that same person simultaneously believes that political violence is wrong and should be condemned.

 

At what point does tolerance of trans people count as an actual ideology? What is the supposed element of indoctrination or accompanying political stance that makes it harmful or extreme or unamerican?

 

I believe that the trans issue is likely being way overstated as an influence on political violence and it does not represent trans people as a whole.

But it does represent some, and that number seems to be growing.
