It's so obvious I assumed it was understood.

Progs have been using private corporations as a glove the Feds can put on to slap us around while telling us that they're not touching us.

Essentially, an alligator us eating us. And your advice is not to fight back because it might put us in a position where the alligator will be able to eat us faster.

Good luck getting people to sit back and do nothing while the left weaponizes public and private institutes against them.

He needs to go after networks that continue to bring on liars like Adam Schiff to tell The American People that their President is a Russian Asset. That shite needs to stop, YESTERDAY!

If we aren't "fighting back" using these tactics, then they're not "fighting us" using the same tactics.

I noticed you didn't challenge the latter, which tells me you understand it's true. If so, you have no basis asserting the former outside of the mentality I've already accused you of having - merely being a contrarian.

The smart thing to do would be to eliminate the power so nobody can wield it.


It'll just get recreated once we lose an election. So this is pointless.

Ah, so the post where you derailed the OP's topic...

You don't get to reframe the conversation because you're looking for people to argue against.

That's you fighting with yourself, there. Not me.

No.

That depends on how you achieve the goal.

The problem is, now that you've won, you want the power.

That's why this board has been filled with Leftism and revenge fantasies since the election.

Technically you did when you brought up violence.

I was just teaching you why your strategy was bad.

No I just point out terrible arguments and make people confront them.

You're so scared to do so you've held this multi-month grudge relying on irrelevant responses in order to avoid responding to what was actually posted.

Cute, but you didn't address my point.

Do you agree with the claim that progressives have been using public institutions to nudge private institutions into "fighting" conservative values/policies?

Any meaningful change would be sandbagged and slow walked until their next election win. Brexit took 4 years and didn't end up being what it was suppose to be. Expect much the same here.

Are you serious?

The OP's X link was Tommie Robinson's posting a video of brits being violent, and explained why they were being violent.

The solution is to stop the government from using corporations. Not giving the government MORE power over the corporations. The whole reasons corporations are willing to go along, is the government can threaten them. You want the government to have MORE power to threaten corporations? That's backwards as it gets.

Where did I say that?

Well, you're the one calling for "the right" to weaponize government against those institutions. So... I'm not sure how doing the same thing will be different when your team does it. This is exactly how we got the Patriot Act Our guy will never abuse it! they said.

Guess what, after "the right" gets power over media, eventually the democrats will win an election. And guess who will then have the power.

The idea that we should fight government's abuse of power by granting it more power is... silly.

Exactly. The government should have the power to have an approved guest list for all media to follow. Holy smokes.
