Lol no it's not justified. Not every single thing needs to be about Trump. Stop being such babies and invoking Trump whenever you feel a tantrum coming on.

So when Trump supporters defend the behavior of Trump and then in the same thread they attack the behavior of some stupid liberal Uni guy who doesn't affect anything, it seems very hypocritical and very disproportionate.

Yeah because Trump tweeted that all he wants for Christmas is brown genocide

When the topic is politics or ideology, it's totally justified. Trump's behavior in the Oval Office affects every single American in the US.

Lol you could literally connect any topic to politics. So it would mean it's justified all the time. He does not need to be inserted into every single conversation.

You're twisting my words.

The point I was making was that you said I was holding his position to a higher standard in Trump's position, to which my response is if Trump had rhetoric and ideology as horrible as this dude's I would very desperately want him out of office, but that because his rhetoric is not as bad as this guy's you're drawing a false equivalency to assume I hold professorship to a higher standard and to assume I'm accepting shit from Trump that I wouldn't accept from a college professor even though there's no equivalency between the rhetoric.

Fair enough and wasn't my point to twist.

You seem to know more about this guy, he just seems like some shitty uni professor twitter troll to me and the harm he can do with a shitty post doesn't compare to what the POTUS can do with a shitty post.

I don't bring her up in every conversation champ. You guys are like a cult, it's weird.

I don't bring up Trump in "every conversation" either, neither does FF or anyone else. So you just killed your point using your own rules. Good job?

You do rant about Clinton a lot and she lost over a year ago. She can't hurt you anymore. She. Can't. Hurt. You. Anymore.

I'm not defending any behavior. It's just the same people I see whine about deflections are now deflecting. I find it curious.

The difference is that trolls on the internet have no power to affect people's lives on any significant level. Trump not only has the power to affect American lives, he also holds the most prestigious office in the country and is leader of the Free World.

So Trump doesn't need to say something drastic like "brown genocide" in order to profoundly hurt brown Americans. He doesn't need to verbally say "White Power" in order to embolden white supremacists. You get where this is going?

And tolerating Trump's behavior is the same thing as defending it.

If Hillary Clinton was President and I was attacking the behavior of a conservative, you would have full right to "But Hillary".

If it was the same situation, yes.

And no, defending something is defending it.

Why does everything need to be whining about Trump?

Yeah just going through this dude's twitter feed...

this Professor also directly quotes Lenin in agreement... who is one of the participants responsible for the genocide of tens of millions of people... I don't exactly see Donald Trump quoting Mein Kampf in agreement.

Proudly identifies with the hammer and sickle... not seeing Trump standing behind the swastika...

Is happy that a cop had their toe bit off by a turtle.

He complains about the "fascists" trying to take away people's rights while he literally is a proponent of an ideology that seeks to abolish everyone's property rights.

He also parrots talking points that we need a violent revolt against the capitalist system.

Yeah Trump's rhetoric is totally equivalent to this.

I'll reply to your other reply later, currently catching up on coursework I missed while sick.

But yeah I can see why social views are easier to develop than economic views, because there's less tradeoff with social views. With social views a lot of the time there's not much tradeoff or its extremely obvious, such as with free speech, or weed legalization, or gay marriage, etc. it's easier to find a more comfortable stance socially of live and let live, whereas with economic views it's a tradeoff between having guaranteed money and services for poor people and allowing people authority over their own property.

That's pretty much it though, yeah. The economic views have to work with the social views. Like, it's all good and well saying "I think we should house the homeless and destroy poverty", but how does one achieve those things economically? Hence the whole fusion of socialism and liberalism thing, where I believe in welfare and supporting people for a variety reasons but I don't think it should come at the expense of personal property or the ability to make a better life for yourself. Bit of a quandary, but it's interesting.

But now you have an issue with problematic behavior because it's on the other side?

How can you not expect to be called out on this every single time?

Lol because the people here whine when I do the exact same thing. Be consistent.

Lol...
