The Candace Owens thread got me thinking. There are countless examples of liberals going scorched earth against their political opponents, but are there any examples of conservatives doing it to liberals? I know some may bring up the Roseanne tweet to Jarret this week, but I'm talking about actual conservatives trying to attack/destroy liberals.

I'm trying to think of an example but I'm coming up empty. I just don't see conservatives sinking to the level liberals are totally comfortable going to.

Anyone got any examples?

Trying to impeach over a blow job is the obvious one.

Roseanne


She's not even conservative.

You can't think of any because there are very very few. We don't own the social media platforms and outside of a couple of platforms we have very little penetration in general. We don't own the cultural levers and as a result can't crush people with them.

Maybe more anarchist than conservative, but haven't some of the autists on the chans gotten after some lefties pretty hard?

Nixon certainly did. Of course (a) he was no conservative, and (b) that was 45-50 yrs ago.

I know that it was for lying to Congress dick, but it was still a witch hunt with the the p.r campaign to ruin him lying about a b.j. Im a conservative but that was just a political scorched earth attack.

Yes, this cannot be overstated. I just get exhuasted when my liberal friends, who are good people, will go to extreme lengths to defend a lunatic liberal's nasty tactics, but curse and spit at conservatives for just existing. Decency is gone in current American political discourse, and it's not the fault of conservatives.

I agree. Never should have been an issue. This is the predecessor to the Mueller investigation. Going down the rabbit hole until they find something that sticks.

Valerie Plame might be an example.

No, they weren’t. They were right-wing authoritarianists. Do you even understand how fascists promoted the distribution of wealth bro?

Charlottesville happened less than a year ago.

Hell, there have been plenty of right-wing shooters since then too
