I don’t think about the echo chamber concept often but it makes sense. It also makes me cringe. Good point.

Good point, if equality is what the Left is after, then someone should be able to make a similar video about people of color with no recourse.
The video has a shock value of course, I just didn’t expect it to come from MTV. Rachel Maddow or Chris Matthews, maybe.
Insulting roughly 35% of the voting public is not very wise either.

Bad show. It’s not what he is doing at all. To say “both sides have bat shit crazy people in them putting out BS” is not the same as saying “the truth MUST reside between left and right parties”. It’s nowhere near. One is saying both sides have people who are crazy (which is absolutely empirically true), and the other is saying “the TRUTH of the situation MUST be in the middle ground between the parties”. Which, while arguable, is not the same as what Mufasa said.
True. I don’t think that the truth lies somewhere in between the lunatics of either side.
The only thing between them is a vast expanse which they blubber across at each other.
We need to add a Z axis to the half round pie chart. It would represent the lunacy of a position as it moves further from zero.

This is Mufasa’s general stances on this site. Absolutely nothing can be black and white everything is grey and the answer lies somewhere in the middle.
It’s basically what he says about everything
There is actually very little in life that is absolute. I think Mufasa does damn well at addressing things in a way that includes the reality of the human condition.
I never once said that there isn’t people who play dirty on both sides. In fact, I have said many times that ALL politicians are slippery and cannot be trusted.
But what I also said and that you cannot refute is that we have never seen either side carry on the way the left did after (and at times before) Trump won.
To repeat:
How many times has the right hired actors to do televisions spots to try to get democrat electors to change their vote? Never.
How many times have the streets been filled with right wing protestors immediately after a democrat won the Presidency? Never.
How many times has a republican who lost the Presidential race blamed everyone and everything for his loss (to such a giant degree) except the real reason, that is he was a bad candidate? Never.
As for the race itself how many times has the right been slipped the answers to debate questions ahead of time by someone who actually works for one of the main networks? Never.
And lest I forget again…the left hired people to start fights at Trump rallies. Once they were exposed suddenly there was no more violence…despicable!
They have pierced a whole new low by the above behavior and I think if you are honest with yourself you will agree.
“This is my America!” What the hell is that woman talking about?
I know you are belittling Trump, and I do agree with you. But, if you think for a moment it is one of the reasons why Trump won. The public school system has let us down to the point where when a leading politician speaks at a third grade level people can better identify with him.
Proven out by the many teams of people that Hillary had at her beck and call. 1.2 million spent on the campaign, twice that of Trumps expenditures and… she lost.
And the laughs keep pouring in courtesy of the left wing loons.
They launch an “Electors change your vote campaign” and vomit all over TV as well as other forms of communication. And what does that bring them?
Trump loses 2 electors…Hillary loses 5!
Ha…no really you couldn’t make this stuff up. The left is stuck in failure mode.
Eh, I don’t necessarily agree with that. Bush II spoke pretty plainly and sometimes fumbled up a few malapropisms. I can listen to that and relate to the extent required to get the point.
Some other politicians though, when they start using language to obfuscate their intentions, either with esoterica or overly complicated and slippery language, the bullshit flag goes up and the message doesn’t carry over nearly as well as if it were delivered straight.

She is talking about her feeling of entitlement, you are not allowed to disagree with her. You (and the rest of us) are living in her world, according to her.

Everybody knows you’re supposed to cater your message to your audience. Trump was great at doing that as you said @SkyzykS
He also says what he means and never backtracks…even when he’s wrong. That was a redeeming quality for many compared to Obama…even if he was spreading falsehoods at times.
Like I said there are idiots on both sides. But, the story you posted in no way indicates that the numbers were even close to the numbers of left wing loons in most of the major cities that were protesting Donald Trump after the election…and many still are.
Ahhahahahaha! oh thats a good one… 
My wife runs a sales campaign. She has read the art of the deal, and some Zig Zigglar. She tells her agents, as a last ditch effort, if you don’t know what you’re talking about- deliver it Strong and Wrong! It beats fumbling around and having the prospective purchaser lose confidence in you. You can always clarify a statement and completely change what it meant later.

Oh no. There weren’t nearly as many protesters, mostly because (in my opinion) people were hoping for change, whereas in this election people were pissed off.
I’d say protesting a president after they are elected is stupid…but people may have thought dumping tea into the ocean as a means to protest Great Britain was stupid; especially with the strength of the British Empire at the time. In hindsight it was part of many events which triggered a revolution. So I’ll take a wait and see approach. The same of which I am taking with Trump’s ability to govern.
I don’t care for Trump or Hillary, I wouldn’t protest a fair election, but there are many people that are willing to right now. It says a lot about the state of our country. Though I imagine your response will be contain the words “snowflake” and “entitlement” I’m positive there would’ve been outrage if Hillary had won as well. Dunno about the protests…but in my short 25 years of life this is the angriest I’ve seen our country.

Well, it seems that Trump’s National Security Advisor Michael “Not anymore, Jews. Not anymore” Flynn met with the real deal - Austrian far-righters who came to Trump Tower directly from Moscow where they signed a cooperation agreement with Putin’s United Russia party.
This is the “the SS were men of honor” crowd…
