I don’t read r/conservative much but what I’ve seen is they keep banning actual conservatives because they correctly call out what Trump is doing on things where it’s not about left and right but right and wrong.

Some people are saying that it could be coincidental. OP asks why would the two accounts who post so regularly just happen to both stop at the same time on that day.

    I feel like your claim, that Russia is of one distinct race of people, is the real racism, here.

    Either way, tolerance ends with the intolerant. The Russia people have had plenty of chances to prevent Putin from gaining power and waging war, and they did nothing, so fuck em.

      Well that’s a shitty attitude. The average Russian has as much power as … yeah … pretty much nothing. Like all of us who aren’t ultra rich in every country in the world. Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try, but that’s a different matter.

        People with no power tore the USSR apart, toppled monarchies across Europe, ended the company stores and brought civil rights in the USA.

        The only real reason is that they don’t actually mind all that much or they think it can be fixed somehow.

        For every victim in Russia there are two or three perpetrators.

        As an American, every American is responsible for Trump, that’s kinda how it works. That’s how the world sees it, and that’s how you should understand it.

          So you got out and vote against Trump, you canvass for his opponents, you attend marches against him, and you educate others of the risks of trump.

          Yet you’d still be responsible for him. Thats some wacky logic there lad.

          Edit: Mods removed by reply below. All i said was my city was bombed by terrorists, Manchester Arena Bombing, and I don’t hold all people of the same race as the bombers responsible. Where the fuck are we r/conservative with the censorship.

            Yes. The families of the people he’s killed on those boats will be angry at us equally. That’s exactly how it works. They’ll blame us down to our children, like the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians.

            We are all in this together and the American past time of developing plausible deniability, or having your cake and eating it too, won’t save any of us from being lumped in with the others.
