Why Republicans Are on the Verge of Fistfights
www.politico.com
A historian who studies political violence and the runup to the Civil War explains why congressmen are getting ready to brawl.

This is not opinion or leftist. It’s news about fighting in the party, which is factual, recent, and on-topic.

Removal of this post is admitting that this sub is only about being a safe space for conservatives to circle-jerk while ignoring reality.

I encourage a discussion about the recent conflicts inside the party, how that might impact the party moving forward, and what can be done to prevent this divide.

    The KKK’s still around, and when they march, they don’t march with Democrats.

        Which guy said a neo-Nazi rally had “good people on both sides?”

            Richard Spencer is the neo-Nazi who started the rally I just fucking asked about! The rally called “Unite the right.” He’s a right-wing crank - he fucking came up with the term alt-right.

            Jesus fuck, this crank opinion piece really tries saying the Nazi who runs a right-wing propaganda campaign and promoted a right-wing rally for other Nazis is totes mcgoats sincere and logical when he claims he’s not right-wing. Guys. Nazis like you. Any time they claim to be socialist - they immediately start murdering actual socialists.

            Do you need a fucking diagram for why an ideology that hates queer people, academia, and feminism keeps showing up at your events?

              I am not a Nazi troll.

              The Nazis supported Biden. Spencer endorsed Biden. Let that sink in.

                Spencer’s a right-wing troll. And a fucking Nazi.

                Spencer created the brand that the Republican party endorsed.

                When that sneering bigot says ‘actually I’m left-wing,’ that is literally what the Nazis did. And you still fall for that?

                What a worthless conversation.
