the masks of civility is nearly gone.

It started when Reagan lifted the tent flap and let fringe evangelical christian conservatives have a seat at the table. They morphed into the new conservatives, who then shape shifted into the Tea Party. This created the Frankenstein's monster known as Donald Trump. That resulted in an actual physical assault on Capitol Hill. Then we have the following:

Marjorie Taylor Greene: Why she embodies Republicans' post-Trump dilemma

Lauren Boebert Mocks Parkland Survivor David Hogg, Prompting Outrage


https://www.newsweek.com/lauren-boeb...utrage-1565331


The Old Guard is NOT going to address this stuff head on...there must be a true 3rd Party of "progressives" to deal with this before this country truly slips into a civil war of fascists vs. Americans.

 

The Dems and MSM and Left and David Hogg put himself on his pedestal on the world stage to shout his attacks on conservative gun owners and the Constitution with his



Scowling at gun owners mocking them.

He set himself up for critique when he publicly urged McCarthy to take a stand against Boebert and Greene and said were "real threats" against America. Boebert was spot on in her tweet

"In a tweet on Thursday, Hogg called on Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to take a stand against Boebert and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) whom he deemed the "real threats" to the U.S. Capitol.

Boebert, 34, replied to the 20-year-old activist in a tweet of her own: "David, please. We all saw how tough you were when questioned face to face. Give your keyboard a rest, child."

And whenever someone does stick their neck out and criticize what he is screaming about they get attacked with the "how dare you he's just a child!!!"

He was being asked relevant questions as he made the rounds pushing his leftist agenda. He was not interfered with, he was not hampered, he was not threatened, she did not get in his face, she did not scream obscenities' at him. Why is SHE being attacked??

And I don't know about all the conspiracy stuff, this is about THIS, the Hogg incident. If you can't comment on THIS and focus on THIS without going off on other tangents please don't bother.



Why has the MSM and Left and Dems inoculated Hogg for any criticisms of his positions and what he says?

 

That's easy because his positions are completely indefensible, least of all by him. It the same tripe they did in defense of the rich Swedish girl, Greta whatever her name was.

 

Hogg is a stereotypical DCP coward.

 

All of which comes back to the mountain of lies and conspiracy theories (not traditional conservatism) members of the POT believe in. Which in turn comes back to the lies and conspiracy theories spewed by right wing media. Roger Ailes and Faux may go down in history as the most destructive domestic force in America's history.

 

It took Democrats 60 years of hurling insults and nearly constant race baiting but yeah gave finally managed to kill civility. But then the left's definition of civility has always been a bit suspect to put it mildly.

 

Billboards are starting to pop-up in her district

 

She is a piece of human crap! Attacking the survivor of a school shooting who experienced a traumatizing experience and harassing him because he's fighting so it doesn't happen again claiming that he was "being paid" to do it.

She personifies the sub-human garbage that espouse Q Anon conspiracy theories.

 

Especially when they KNOW the little schmuck wasn't even THERE when the atrocity happened. He's the worst kind of opportunist.

 

This

Exactly. Hes a lying pos opportunist who saw a chance for 15 minutes of fame.

 

How is he a survivor? Is it just because he was a student even though he wasn't there during the shooting?

 

It is kinda hard to respect conservatives after Trump. I mean there are some posters here I genuinely think were helping to hold Obama accountable and some of the things they were doing was good work. I always liked Professor Peabody and his threads. They were usually really smart attacks on Obama. But now? Nah it's a noticeable decrease in the quality of his threads. And look at Bluesguy! He's defending somebody who said the Parksland Shootings never happened. Could you imagine him doing it 8 years ago? I looked up to them as beacons of what conservatives should do and be. Now? They're tragedies to warn others to not make the same mistake.

And I am well aware that this is a personal attack post. Mods! In before the curtains close. I'm out! Classes are starting up soon and I need to get busy studying. Nice talking to everyone! I'll see you when I see you next!

 

You're asking me for the meaning of the word "survivor"? He's a survivor because, unlike many of his peers, he survived the shooting.

 

He's not a survivor he was not there and HE decided to put himself up on a pedestal an rant and rave and scowl at other people raising his fist at them and here filing a complaint against their leader in the House. That some of his schoolmates were killed does inoculate him once he starts attacking others.

 

She attack his positions not him personally. And he isn't a kid any more. Further I don't care who you are and what the hell you survived, that does not give you carte blanche to say indefensibly stupid things about others.

 

I find the talk about "the masks of civility is nearly gone" to be funny. Tell me, has there been a time when there WAS civility in politics? They don't say that politics is a dirty game for nothing ya know. It's well known that conservatives call liberals "*******s" and liberals call conservatives "racist" and that such has been going on longer than anyone today has been alive. Hell, we once had a senator attack another senator with a cane on the senate floor for crying out loud. And that was back in 1856.

So, to blame this on Trump, or any other politician really, is the height of ignorance AT BEST.

Mask of civility...

Edit: Wait...that word is censored here? Wow...

 

Pretty easy to do when you aren't on the premises wouldn't you say?

 

That's like saying everyone that was in the military during wartime but never left the states are survivors. By your definition everyone living is a survivor of every shooting to ever take place.

 

the left is not gonna split themselves in two, that would guarantee republicans the election wins

what we need is a 3rd maga party

 

as for Greene

the RQP put her there... Quack Quack Quackery

 

The fact Democrats hate her makes me like her more. if it wasn't for Democrats trying to destroy her, I wouldn't even know who she is.

 

How so? That clown Greene made the same accusation, but has YET to explain exactly how she comes to that conclusion. Exactly what is Hogg "cowardly" about? I ask because it sure as hell isn't about facing the public attacks from clowns like Greene to advocate his position.

 

Quite the opposite. Greene personnifies the Q-Anon/Fox News/right wing punditry by repeating often and loud a lie. Here, for your education:

Did David Hogg Lie About Being on Campus During Mass Shooting? (snopes.com)

As Hogg has said in multiple interviews, and has been corroborated by multiple witnesses, Hogg was sitting in class when the shooting began ....... Hogg returned to his high school later that day, in the evening, specifically to document the aftermath of the shooting he had just experienced:

 

"third maga party"?
Elucidate, my friend, elucidate!
