    One legally organized white supremacist demonstration expressing their first amendment rights (regardless of how abhorrent their views are) is not comparable to years of thuggish leftist riots, looting, violence, intimidation, destruction of businesses, attacks on police precincts, fascist autonomous zones etc.

    The down-ballot destruction of the Democrat party tells you all you need to know, the lame but but but Charlottesville whataboutism is not fooling anyone, the american people know who destroys their cities.

    Not the end of the world. More like the success of the globalists to assert totalitarian control over billions of people in the world.

    In four years, I may not have the right to print the sentence I just wrote. The end of America, and freedom, as we have known it begins with being told what you can and cannot say.

    Ah yes, the Great Battle of Charlottesville, when the fate of civilization hung in the balance if but for a few brave....BS!!! The loony-toon Far Right came to town to co-opt a purely local debate over the fate of a statue and the loony-toon Far Left showed up to get their licks in. A local woman dies as a result by a mentally deranged individual. To try to compare that to the months of Leftist violence and the accompanying 30+ deaths is breathtakingly disingenuous, to be overly polite!

    Months ? Leftist violence ?

    So did you card everyone at these riots ? How many were opportunistic righties killed people ? Talk about disingenuous, you're so fill of s**t you're eyes are brown. Just like your brown-shirt supporters who Dirty Donnie told to "stand back and stand by".

    If I may be forgiven a picayune objection, the right wants authoritarianism. Fascism is a type of politics that may best be described as Nationalism on Steroids. (and I wish somebody would supply me a better definition than that) It lends itself to authoritarianism very readily but is not necessarily or inherently authoritarian itself

    . There seem to be actually benign forms, like the type that came about in Portugal for a long time or in Spain under the latter (but not earlier) regime of Francisco Franco. Reagan's administration was sometimes called "Friendly Fascism" though I would dispute the overall accuracy of that quite heavily.

    Because it is. The Mayan calendar is off 8 years. So, 21-th of December 2020 it is... the end of the (old) world. Get ready. :)

    550 riots in 220 cities. A comment barely compares.

    Flags w/swastikas under torchlight are good for quite a few to most people. And a majority of the "riots' are being started by RW troublemakers

    You're right, RW false flag operations are difficult and even dangerous to penetrate. I don't do danger

    You forgot to say that the sky will fall.

    Similar things were said in both Obama electoral victories. We would become a Third World s..... hole. We'd go full communist. They'd come for our guns. The borders would be abolished. The Muslims would take over.

    Oh well, we're still here, still capitalist, still a developed country, Obama deported more illegal aliens than all his predecessors combined and killed more Muslim terrorists than all his predecessors combined. Nobody came for our guns. We still have borders.

    But wait, now all of the above will happen because Biden won.

    Although Biden is not for packing the court. Although it can't be done without Senatorial approval. The Electoral College requires a constitutional amendment to be passed, and it requires a two thirds majority in Congress and two thirds of the 50 states; it's not going to happen. If you read Biden's official platform, there isn't any push for open borders. Amnesty would need Congress agreement too.

    In summary, nothing will happen, as usual. We'll be fine.

    Until the election of the next Democrat for the Oval Office, when you'll reheat and repost all these preposterous and catastrophic predictions.

    Oh, and by the way, I just walked to my window and checked. The sky is still up there.

    Inaccurate, not surprised at all given the source. The Dems THEMSELVES are talking court packing. The Dems THEMSELVES have been crafting EC avoidance for years. The Dems THEMSELVES are pushing massive economic upheaval via Green New Deal, etc. The Dems THEMSELVES are pushing "state-packing" to increase Blue Congressional representation. The Dems THEMSELVES are pushing things like normalizing transexuality on kids and parents. It's not Trump, Fox News or some RW blog doing that. It's YOU and YOURS, YOUR reps, YOUR candidates themselves, YOUR presidential candidate.

    Trump never did or remotely suggested anything that reactionary, NADA, border wall and tax cut, duplicative regulation cuts REEEEEEE! (Yawn) Yet somehow YOU and YOURS have SCREECHED about Trump as LITERALLY HITLER for 4 solid years based on pure fabricated BS. You fabricated the smoke and there was never any fire. Now the irony and patent DISHONESTY of suggesting that people shouldn't be concerned about RADICAL Democrat STATED policies is laughably absurd, not surprising though, again given the source.

    Now junk threads like this. Historical awareness and perspective TOTALLY LACKING from people who fabricated a fake MUHRUSSIA, fake impeachment, MOUNTAINS of fakery and lies... just because they lost in 2016. And suddenly now play nice and ignore the massive Complex ****ery for years? No.

    Finally, I personally know it isn't the end of the world. Once the gov-edu-union-contractor-grantee-trial lawyer-MSM Complex gets its favorite graft troughs up and running, all the reactionary stuff will fade out, was always just dross for the ignorant, very young, mostly female voters who are among the very few voting blocs who actually, vote for Democrats NONFRAUDULENTLY. Everyone else wised up to the crime family ages ago. But the topic was not "why does Sanskrit believe the sky is falling," I'll just do fine, I actually make more money when the crime family Complex is in power. My personal beliefs weren't the topic though.

    I don’t think that the fact that Al Gore contested the 2000 election had anything to do with Osama Bin Laden’s timing. I think (without the knowledge of what Al Quida was actually planning at the time). We do know that the hijackers were busy with flight training in 1999.

    There certainly would have been no Iraq War.

    The government would have continued to run surpluses.

    And the collapse of both Enron and CitiCorp, both of which were cautionary tales for what was brewing on the deregulated horizon, would have ben seen as warning signs. Perhaps the global “great recession” (nobody wants to call it a depression, even though that’s what it was), would have been a lot less severe.

    Elections DO have consequences. And it is both dangerous and naive to believe that they don’t.

    No, changes in government are not the end of the world. But assuming that nothing will be any different is not valid either.

    Had Joe Biden run and beat Trump in 2016, the world would be a much different place.
