Another example. According to Tim Pool, #ClintonBodyCount was trending yesterday. Then #TrumpBodyCount started trending, clearly as more of a response to the Clinton body count hashtag. Then, the entire #ClintonBodyCount was removed as a conspiracy theory. #TrumpBodyCount was not removed.

Do You Think Trump Bares Any Responsibility For The Mass Shootings Occuring?

@flipper:
So the El Paso shooter writes a manifesto in which he explicitly denies any motivation from Trump. He even says that he knows it’s likely the media won’t believe him and that they will blame Trump anyway.
So where do we go from here, flipper? The shooter himself has said there was no influence, that he held these views long before Trump, and this was a long time coming. But for you if we take the shooter at his word, it is ‘sticking our head in the sand’?
So I wonder, what is the “similar rhetoric” you refer to? Are you just trusting mainstream sources that he is echoing Trump?

Pfft lol. Bla. When I was young, around 12/13, I went on a glass bottom boat ride. Lots of wildlife, fish. We came to a point where the spring fed river merged into a larger river. The boat had to go through an open gate with large pillars on each side. As we went through there was a monkey on one of the pillars. The monkey was sitting, smiling, and stroking a large erect penis. As the boat past by, he kept stroking proudly for all the kids to see.
There was a shared feeling of laughter and cringe. Wide eyes all around. Silence and scattered snickering.
This video gave me the same feeling.

Ah, Ok. Well he does advertise it as “killer” bread. Why is the OP alarmed? Seems like Dave was quite up front regarding the nature of his bread.

I don’t see how it’s possible to trust mainstream sources. The other day the New York Times published a pro-Trump article headline: “Trump Urges Unity vs. Racism”. It should be noted that the headline is a purely factual headline. But the left couldn’t handle it, and instead of sticking to the purely factual headline, they revised it to a more partisan title (leaning left, of course).
This pattern has been replayed over and over again. With more individual commentators getting involved online, these dinosaur news agencies are fact-checked real time. And it’s destroying them. And it should destroy them.

Rubin’s latest guest, Brendan O’Neill, said it in an interesting way: “The conclusion I’ve come to is that identity politics is a gateway drug to actual racism.”

Does anyone on the left see the irony of calling out Trump for issuing racist/Nazi “dog whistles”?! Nobody else seems to be able to hear these racist “dog whistles”. Why are they the only ones ... hearing... the dog whistles.... made specifically to be heard by racists....

Xenophobia, and a Inferiority Complex, I'm sure there are more.
There are more. Remember, he eats fluffy bunnies for breakfast... sometimes with Russian dressing.
But xenophobia... don’t buy it. You might think that if you’ve been fed a steady diet of CNN with a slathering of MSNBC on top.
Can you list something xenophobic? Be careful not to conflate putting the interests of the US first with being xenophobic. Also, facts are never xenophobic or racist.
Ok... list away.
