trump wants a civil war, and I'm afraid he will get it.

I'm convinced the same people radicalising the right are radicalising the left.

I'm pretty sure the rise of fascism has a tendency to get the left riled up. So technically you are correct.

Yeah. There was a time I merely thought the other side was misguided, but would see reason if we talk. That isn't how it works. Bullies only recognize power, and one should know when to speak their language.

Then stop it. Learn to communicate with eachother before it's too late. Make amends. Stop this bullshit.

Hell no. You want us to surrender to evil people.

The left have been warning about exactly what's happening for years. Practically screaming it into traffic. Noone has listened, noone has taken us seriously, noone has thought to actually stand up to the oligarchs.

After a while you have to stop treating them like children who don't know better and come to the realisation that they want the cruelty and oppression. They just don't want it to happen to them.

Once the extrajudicial deportations start, anyone still onboard with it is by definition hostile and an active supporter of fascism. These people can't be reasoned with.
