9 OUT OF 10 PEOPLE I asked dont know what antifa is nor social justice warriors
As someone who has canvassed for an election campaign i seriously think talking face to face is more effective
The sad fact of the matter is that a substantial percentage of the population is **not** reasonable whatsoever.
The censorship kicking up over night hardcore is insane
people get the most defensive when you imply they are wrong or try to convince them of your side, but if you ask questions and get them to explain their belief, then explain your own without trying to undermine their position you can have a very effective dialectic.
Civil discourse has become a lost art in the mainstream.
Fair enough.
normies arnt that connected i agree with Eros
its because people online now are looking for victories not conversations
Most people dont give a fuck about your side bc theyre working 50 hour weeks and slacing to get home to do chores
People have been petty and politically violent since the dawn of man. The difference now is that society is very dependent on electronic communications, and due to convenience, society allowed the vast majority of it into the hands of a few thousand people in San Fran.
A big part of the issue is that even a lot of conservatives are irrationally hostile when conversing with liberals.
Some people don't seem to understand that calling them SJW snowflake fags to their face isn't an effective method of reaching common ground with them.
@AnthonyLaCosaNostra exactly
There -has- to be mutual respect and civility.
Lol working america doesnt give a fuck about most things the "internet" freaks out about
/\
@Zykritch bullshit
the left is violent
And they just laugh at companies who react to it
Some of them.
A large portion, sure. But not every leftist is a radical Antifa member.
agree not all of the left but the majority of the alt left
The right is violent too, by those standards.
the right has been violent but recently how violent have they been ?
The problem is that we have come to believe that everyone is participating in the culture war when that is simply not true
Well, they killed a woman a year ago
I've met a number of leftists who are genuinely good people who **think** they're on the correct side, people who sincerely believe they hold the moral high ground. They're just misguided.
News flash were human, were animals, we are violent
And a couple cops
many americans are gonna go about their days like any other despite all this
And tried to kill a black guy, but the gun jammed
It's the reason you have the #walkaway movement at the moment.
No theyre going to vote once every two years
And that was all on the same day
Lol
anyone seeking ingroup validation for a prescribed set of principals will have a hard time convincing me they actually have any principals. not that i would say that to their face, not because im afraid to. Just unproductive.
tbh i think #walkaway is cowardly
one person on the left dies and all of a sudden the right is more violent than the left which has killed more than one person
reform dont run
