How do you attempt to rationalise with the completely irrational?

Are you nuts?

No, and my post was just as sane as yours.

Well no, the left hates free speech (speech codes, cancel culture, political correctness - a Maoist ideal) - just like the Communists do. BLM was founded by self proclaim Marxists, critical race theory which has its early origins in neo-Marxism is spreading in leftist circles. The fact that our Universities are littered with Communist professors, etc... Never mind the Communist/left's hatred of religion. Yes they are fellow travelers.

And they were clever enough to wrap it in black skin so that anybody who opposed it is RACIST!!!!

Yeah, I thunder-fingered it.

I remember when you could go into Walmart and you could see all kinds of "made in USA" stuff, then came the "cheaper" campaign, and so much stuff was made in China.

Same with Shark Tank - I used to enjoy that, but so many of the contestants (applicants?) were told, "you need to increase your profit margin by moving production to China...."

The Ferengi Business Model seems standard.

Business will sniff out the lowest sourcing, it's up to government to put brakes on. Seems no liberals want to defund China.

Unless and until sufficient numbers of consumers vote with their pocketbook. I don't think there's near the "Buy American" sentiment as there used to be.

Yep, back in the 60s they realized that they could not shove Marxism down the throats of Americans so the went the social justice route. It was a smart move, but it comes down to the ultimate control of the population.

Nowadays that is simply a talking point to do the opposite, right?

Trump says we need to crack down on China, buy American. Orange man bad. Liberals end up supporting China because if orange man say it, we oppose it, trump is xenophobic racist.

Which brings to mind the idea of discussions with irrational people.

The right loves silencing political opinions they dislike (support for the firing of white hose officials who criticize Drumpf, support for the re-imprisonment of Michael Cohen, etc). They also love Russia - just like the Communists do)

Blah blah blah, more hatred of the US constitution; more love of the undermining of American values.

Just like OMB is able to single handedly make the liberals defend anarchy and chaos, and call it "peaceful protesting".

The things I listed are fact. We had a support the police rally in my town recently, about 250-300 people, with about 20 counter protesters.They were treated with respect, I posted a picture here of me shaking the hand of one of them. So here is my test - get a MAGA hat and go to one of these leftists rallies and see what happens - you will have your answer. Who supports free speech and who doesn't.

Blah blah blah, more hatred of the US constitution; more love of the undermining of American values.

Obviously facts bother you.

Your anecdotes don't prove leftists love communism more than rightists. Indeed, the way you rightists apologize for Russia is downright unAmerican

Obviously facts bother you.

Obviously, you're addicted to projection.

But that is not a movement, the things I listed are.

I don't even like Russia, we know the founders of BLM are Marxists for instance. And go a head try my experiment and see what will happen. You know what will happen.

Well I certainly believe that there is a sinister force in the world, the Devil and his minions...

And there you go, Hypatia!

This QAnon consipiracy is too convoluted and boring to keep my interest.

I haven't seen anything to make me think it's anything other than guesswork, and it's mostly not even good guesses.
