Maybe if you lost 150 lbs you could get a boyfriend.
We joke in my office that if WWII had done its job correctly we wouldn't have to put up with the SPLC.

Not siding with Hitler against the Jews and Communists was the biggest mistake in our history.

But I'm one of those crazy right wingers who hates them. I don't live in a basement... I am married and I work in silicon valley. I also fall In the middle politically. I feel like they are no longer connected to reality.

Look, the left has always spread around stereotypes of their enemies to pull in the weak minded. Just look at the depictions in movies and TV. One could make a solid case that the black underclass is actually the very WORST group of people in this country but those that echo and idiot lefties always depict the enemy as whites.

The projection is embarrassing. / As you have witnessed, this is a phenomenon [the rising populist Right] that’s not here [pointing to his head], it’s emotional [pointing to his heart]. I call it the politics of high blood pressure./ Meanwhile Trump supporters are being beat up at rallies.. The cognitive dissonance is astounding. If we could get them laid we could end the movement. No dummy, if you would stop moving our mortal enemies into our cities we might stop. If you limit the elite from performing snatch and grab schemes, we might stop. If you could roll back the Orwellian control of governments, we might stop. If you bring back the spirit of hearth and home instead of every man for himself, we might stop. These people have no place in politics. They have no ties to the everyman.

The stench of a socialdemocrat is strong in this one . We regularly kick such assholes out of our leftist meetings .

Strangely, it takes another group of extremist to counter another group of extremist. It seems that the far right has to go up against the far left. No one shouts "lets all move to the center".
