Me too. They just can't help themselves proselytizing their agenda

Are you arguing that this is equitable to what the Nazis did?

Equating even the most far right conservatives in this country with Nazis is a bridge too far and way out of line. You do that garbage and I'm not listening to anything else you say because it's probably garbage too.

So conservatives are nazis because they support gun rights? What if you aren’t conservative and support freedom?

Now there is a group that is saying don’t tread on me because they support eugenics, but it’s not conservatives.

Care to turn that analysis on to BLM, etc.? Knowing what I know about you, I doubt it.

Show me where I’ve defended BLM or downplayed violence by calling it “taking selfies”.

I hope they got an apology from the officer that they beat to the ground and then pummeled with a flag pole. He had his nerve, bleeding like that.

Not a fan of the guy they picked to play the bad guy. He was a roided out monster in the book. This dude is scrawny.

I’m pretty sure that lecture came from the book. It’s not like they threw that in there to be woke.

I enjoyed the book and have enjoyed the series so far. I just wish it was set up to be binge watched.

The Nazis hijacked the Hindu symbol and made into their own. Conservatives literally are reviving and keeping true to the original Gadsden's flag meaning.

How could Dan or anyone not get that?

This isn’t true. It’s not just a “Hindu” symbol.

Yes, the swastika was widely used in the US pre WW2 as a good luck symbol. I have a few carnival tokens from the 1930s that have a swastika on one side and a horseshoe on the other.
Some have a four leaf clover in place of the horseshoe,but they all have the swastika.

The Nazis hijacked it.

That's the point.

Those flying Gadsden's flag today didn't.

I and hopefully all, regardless of political persuasion, condemn that.

But get back to how beating up a police officer on a single day is equivalent to the Holocaust. I want to hear more of that.

Don’t be obtuse.

The swastika was around in a non-negative connotation for centuries. The Nazis made it their logo and it’s unfortunately forever branded with them.

Rainbows have been around for millenniums and the LGBT crowd took it and made it their logo and now have taken over it as a logo.

You know exactly what he means by hijacked.
