feeling all-powerful and superior to the rest of us, and using their power to bring about the destruction of their own cities, just like men who feel power and get erotic pleasure out of beating the crap out of their wives or raping their daughters and supporting each other.  These are sick, mentally ill people, and there's no telling how much destruction they'll bring about before they're through.

These are all Democrats, and there's a historical analogy from a century ago, when Democrats got erotic pleasure out of seeing the thugs from their own KKK organization go out and lynch, torture, rape and kill blacks.  A century ago, the Democrats got erotic pleasure out of seeing their fascist KKK thugs lynch, torture, rape and kill blacks, and today, the Democrats get erotic pleasure out of seeing their fascist antifa-blm thugs beat, trash and destroy the hated 63 million Tea Partiers and Trump supporters.  What's old is new again.

Hmm.  I guess these two paragraphs are enough to start.

In Portland, you have three right wing organizations causing bad trouble.  I add the word bad, as to distinguish it from what John Lewis called good trouble.  Anyway, the Trump followers, the Boogaloo Bois and the bad cops are causing bad trouble.  All have reasons to promote violence, even if some of the reasons are considered wrong by many.  The blue government, Black Lives Matter and the good cops are trying to stop it.  The blues have to pay the costs for what the extreme red factions do.  The problem isn’t with the blues.

I'll add that you have added a very new and highly non standard definition of 'fascst' to score points, but I have already commented on that.

A century plus in the past the Democrats were the rural racist faction fighting to continue slavery then to promote Jim Crow inequality.  Things have changed since then.  The blame still goes to the rural racist faction which still exists, even if they have switched to the other party over the years.  If you do not acknowledge the change, you can score some debate points at the expense of loosing your credibility among those who have studied history.

I could go on, but one question first.  Is it that you are that selective in studying history and analyzing the situation, or are you that dedicated to scoring points with those already in your bubble that the loss of credibility among those who have studied the situation doesn’t matter?
