I think that's a good point. But would you agree that both "sides" are equally guilty of such delegitimisation? Here's an example provided by words of yours a couple of pages back:-
Masterbagger wrote:Supreme Court announcement incoming. Very soon there will be a disturbance in the force as millions of liberals cry out in anguish. Some poor judge is about to go from anonymous to the object of a campaign of pure hatred from the left.
Dismissing the concerns of anybody who is worried about the idea of a Supreme Court being locked down for decades is, in my opinion, clearly delegitimisation. The thing is that the US Constitution doesn't state how many judges there should be. Given the demographic shifts in the US at some point the Dems will get in with enough weight in the Senate, Congress and the States to change the requisite numbers and stuff the court with additional appointees of their own. That will in turn completely deligitimise it.

Dangerous territory.

It's a pretty common pattern of your post, so the relief must come often ;)

From the 2nd post it seems fairly obvious you have what you want to say, my suggestion is just say it, we all want to say our pieces. However I would greatly appreciate if you don't quote something as a base and attach a completely irrelevant response to it. It makes it rather hard to hold a proper conversation that way. However I shouldn't be surprise, I guess it's an usual tactic in tabloid. Not rare to see a journalist interview someone, posing a question as an excuse, than go on a completely tangent analysis on the response with zero relevancy. In fact, happen so often with anything Trump related :D

Sorry I stirred the pot up, but to give those outside the US
a glimpse of the problems and where Trumpism (Yes it's started to
become a phrase now) has led we in the US.

If you break it down "Trumpism" is a political process where close to 80% of the populace is disconnected from a political voice and by the remaing 20% in power manipulaing the legal structures. (These numbers are relating to political issues and there is crossover by issues and stances) Typified by such moves as making permanent the "nuclear option" in the legistaures, packing SCOTUS, "redistricting" (gerrymandering) to turn blue states red after the Supreme Court okayed such manipulations and so on. "Trumpism" is the creation of a single party political system in the US by denying not only Democrats, but smaller Republican Party factions access to the political process not only now, but in the future.

Expect the next move to be a block on legal challenges to the US Government by the lower courts. (eg: Reuniting children seperated from their families during the illegal immigration crackdown which is already in the lower courts).

I have largely withheld myself from this debate, but I would like to ask you as to why you don't view Trump as being racist. There is a textbook definition of racism I believe, something about discriminating people based on their ethnicity. This here is, I believe, an illustration of the problem in American politics (and society), that different (groups of) people don't agree on the same definition of words - to an outsider, that's what it looks like anyway.
I get my Trump content directly from Trump without whatever filter of bias media presents him through. He is not a complex man. He will say what he thinks in blunt language.

I treat accusations of racism with a high level of scrutiny because the race card is being used as a very divisive and unproductive weapon for all parties involved in the debate. It's ultimately the same thing as comparing someone to Hitler. No one is like Hitler. Not even close. It's a means to provoke a negative response without presenting an argument of substance.

who then proceeds to systematically dismantle the state, while leading his racist followers to believe he is all powerful..??

Here we go again with the twisted priorities, stop hiding behind false rationale, you need to treat accusations of racism seriously and frankly if you cant find any racism from Trumps own filthy mouth than your senses are rather broken. You can only fool yourself so long, eventually you will have to come to terms and acknowledge reality and not this nonsense you get from "Trump directly" (which you dont, not even Trump knows what he is being told to say, most of the time, none does).

If it quacks like a duck...

Indeed, if you cant see the racism coming "Trump directly" then you are either paying VERY scant attention or don't know what racism looks like.
He is as you say "not a complex man" he rarely couched his language or hides duplicitous meaning behind dog whistles.
He makes his racism VERY clear

On another note Mr Trump is visiting my nations capital tomorrow (whilst cowardly trying to spend the bare minimum amount of time there) and I am planning to attend the protest to make it clear to him what this city at least thinks of him and his policies.

I am somewhat casting around for placard designs and would welcome any suggestions.

:roll:
Imagine thinking most of those things are bad, I really just can't grasp how these people think.
Er I'm not American but most of the things on that list ARE terrible

- Abolish ICE - the agency who s keeping MSG13 gang members and illegal immigrants away thats a bad plan in fact thats a dreadful plan.

- Housing as a human right well hers the thing you have to work to get a house - you an give apartments (tenements I think they are called in America) bu people have to work for houses even I know that...


Federal Jobs guarantee - I hate to break it to you but Britain does not have a jobs guarantee ...(although they do favor candidates who are NOT Men Christian or White)

Guncontrol - never going to happen in America despite what you may think.
Guns are an American culture and right in the Constitution

- Mobilize against climate change - that would require prerequisites before that is even possible.

- Clean up campaign finance - I could support this if I did not think in someway this relates to the Russian conspiracy theory and will be a one sided attack on the right.

- Support women's rights - if you mean rights to murder children then no....

- Support LGBTQ rights. So The right of Transgenders to enter little girls bathrooms the right to have transvestites entering schools to give reading sessions (I have a source for that one if I find it) the right to chop off genitals of children who are exploring and other sick depraved things.



NOPE NOPE NO!



I can easily see why people support Trump

People keep saying this... But, where are these "attacks" they're talking about? Saying it is true does not make it true. IMO, the purpose of claiming normal press coverage of the President and his family happens to be an "attack" is simply to draw sympathy without substance. Every President and their family comes under the scrutiny of the public and the press and every Administration has had to deal with that.
And here is a list of attacks:

https://www.breitbart.com/big-journalis ... upporters/

Oh and I would point out most of these are links form other news sources
Breitbart: Rap Sheet: ***352*** Acts of Media-Approved Violence and Harassment Against
When not calling Trump supporters “Nazis” as a means to dehumanize us, the establishment media like to whine about the lack of civility in American politics, even as they cover up, ignore, downplay, or straight-up approve of the wave of violence and public harassment we are seeing against supporters of President Trump.


Here is the list, so far, and remember that if any one of these things happened to a Democrat, the media would use the story to blot out the sun for weeks. Remember how crazy the media went over a nobody rodeo clown who wore an Obama mask, a GOP staffer who criticized Obama’s daughters? And yet, hundreds of Trump supporters are harassed and brutalized and the media only dutifully report them, if at all. That is because the media are desperate to normalize and justify violence and harassment against Trump and his supporters.

And while the media openly encourage this violence against us, the media also campaign to disarm us, to take away our Second Amendment right to defend ourselves.

This list will be updated as needed. Back-filling it will be an ongoing project over…

Here is a video channel dedicated to documenting the dozens and dozens of assaults against Trump supporters.

Please email jnolte@breitbart.com with any updates or anything you think deserves to be added to this list. Also, if you see errors — duplicate postings or events misinterpreted as attacks on Trump supporters, please let us know. Unlike the establishment media’s reporting, we want this list to be comprehensive and factual.

As counterpoint from the diminishing center.

If you chose to follow the trail I'm setting before you here you'll find how dangerous...DANGEROUS a rational approach to the problems in the United States has became. If fact, as you will see if you follow this one situation, why it is now said a rational centralist approach in the administration of state campuses is quickly coming to an end. In the case of the campus involved the bad example of Missouri State University is ill used except as an example of why not to attempt a right of center approach.

In the case of Professor Bret Weinstein you might call him a martyr to rational dialectric discussion when faced by the forces on both the right and left armed with "weaponized rhetoric" that is now the "new speak" regurgitated by both sides in place of discourse.

The end of discussion and dielectrics on
campuses the case of Professor Weinstein:

https://youtu.be/2cMYfxOFBBM

Weinstein before congress:

https://youtu.be/uRIKJCKWla4

Weinstein interview "Is the left eating itself?":

https://youtu.be/9osjKN5VWfM

The result on campus two months later as seen from the left:

https://youtu.be/kCTZ_QQV6Fw

I admit that as a dialectric Weinstein came ill prepared to the front lines and was somewhat ignorant of the length and depth of the gulf between the right and left.

So if there can be no discourse between the right and left without the result of the attempt being outrage at the mere attempt, then you can well imagine why many academics see nothing but very big trouble on the horizon. And why so many of the better academics are seeking other employment (quite a few in other countries).

The teachers still delving in rhetoric, dialectics and debate have tracked the devolving states of discourse in the US from simple dialectrics to Hegelianism to rhetoric to sloganism.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialectic

So if you in other countries wonder why the left and right don't just sit down and talk it over, the reason they don't is THEY CANNOT.
They are no longer speaking the same language and can no longer put asside their divisions and emotions to carry on a civil discourse because the divisions and heated rhetoric has became their LANGUAGE.

Where Weinstein failed was believing in reason when the time that reason could be spoken and UNDERSTOOD has passed.

Simply put: The United States of America is tactitly two countries.
The Right
The Left
(With a diminishing and oft reviled few in the center)

And both resultant countries speaking a different language that precludes the understanding of the other.

So if the schism (:oops:) of US makes the result seem schizophrenic
that's simply because you're getting the point.

Now with that in mind Trump's anitics at the NATO summit followed too closely what I assumed would happen and he took credit for what little was accomplished despite his outright obstruction and distain. When...not if...when the majority of other members fail to pony up with the new spending because the leaders couldn't push thought the funding, expect a pullout of the US from NATO, which Trump left implicit.

Now we DONT get to watch Trump and Putin in Helsinki. Don't because Trump still wants the bulk of the meeting behind closed doors. :?

The US tears itself apart, and takes a wrecking ball to the institutions that have maintained world peace and western ascendancy for the last 80 years.

The western world looks on in horror and incomprehension, Russia and China rub their hands in glee.

Also "The left" and "The right" have absolute no meaning and only contribute to the problem of US politics. Just to put it in perspective, our most "right-wing" party currently in parliament, would be mostly to the LEFT of the democratic party. But these concepts were only truly relevant shortly after their conception as a consequence to the French revolution, they mean nothing these days. Much like the word "conservative" is meaningless.

Societies are "fluid" and in constant evolution, "conserving" is counter-intuitive at best. There is only one way (afawk at this point in history) and that is forward, meaning you can truly only be progressive. Trying to keep the status-quo only serves those already in comfortable positions and those afraid of change. I might have mentioned this here and there, but what people need is to have a system where they can identify with policy and parties need to be diverse so they can represent people more accurately, this 2 party system the US has, is a choice between colas, one just tastes slightly worse.

And here is the crux of it, people, especially on "the left" need to get off their lazy bastus and find ways for their platforms to get on ballots and elect people that will induce the needed change, ASAP! trying to convince Trump supporters that they are wrong and mostly just hurting themselves and dragging everyone else with them is a pointless endeavour. There are more than enough "on the left" to outvote Trumpism, but shit aint going to be done on its own.

Howdy folks

So, how is it to be ruled by Kremlin in Germany? I heard that it's the new hot take on the current events today.


On the other side, Britain - I like what you do with your balloons. Very Monty Python-esque.

Hey! Sorry I forgot all about Trump's stopover in England!
That should be "interesting".
I'm looking forward with trepidation at what damage
Trump no doubt is going to do to US relations with
the country and the queen. Most likely getting with
Pompeo on the best ways to insult the monarch
and "look tough" doing it.

Afterall with with "Big Baby" hanging over
London he's not going to pull many punches.

So in advance.
We in the US still possessing
a few functioning brain cells
not jellied into belligerence
apologise in advance for
any outrages about to
occur.
