• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I mentioned that communist groups funded the protest.
I think that you mean that a Communist group in Minnesota chipped in to the protest there. From AI:

'...but recent events suggest a localized presence of at least 100 individuals.'

You're worried about that? Gosh...

The right is going to have a big midterm problem on their hands if they’ve now lost the retired white people community.
White retired liberals? Do you think they were all going to vote for Trump? You think they voted for Trump?

Even that article doesn't prove hes s fascist. There are words like can, or words like I believe. But nothing listed that is actually facistic. I believe one thing mentioned was the Supreme Court, something presidents have been doing for ever. I suppose they were all facists? No real evidence at all.

Trump is the first really proactive, grab the bull by the horns, get 'er done, president we've had in a long time. So that's why he's being billed as a king dictator autocrat. The right in general gets called fascist and racist.

If we all are going to be honest, the Biden administration was more fascist than Trump's second term. I mean, people were arrested for not wearing masks on an empty beach.

Nobody has done what Trump has done. He has pardoned his friends and tried to jail his enemies. No President has ignored the law in ways Trump has.

Yeah. You can't just "both sides did it too" unless you're going to actually compare useful stats that also address the frequency of trumps disconcerting proclamations.

Huh. like how hes bypassing congress for the atracks on drug boats? Or all of his executive orders.
Or like how he praises tyrants and says he wants to emulate them.
Or how he's empowered a prejudice police force that covers it's face and challenges people based just on skin colour?
I mean, people were arrested for not wearing masks on an empty beach.
You mean when Trump was president?

Paddle boarder chased by boat, arrested in Malibu after flouting coronavirus closures

Besides wasn't that a state issue?
