Yeah republicans would be better off waiting him out and taking their lumps. trump alienated a lot of his fans in recent days. The crackdown only serves to win back those fans for him.

And felons should be allowed to vote and run for office. The idea that a few corrupt politicians can decide that someone who represents tens of millions can't run for office again is pretty absurd.

Substitute Kaepernick for the kneeling player of your choice.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

The problem with these arguments is that you can always reverse them. You could also say that the people who were celebrating the players' right to free speech are now celebrating a giant corporation silencing users.

Which side do you come down on?

You're not making a fair comparison.

On one hand, the head of the federal government endorsed the loss of a person's livelihood b/c he stood up for oppressed people.

On the other hand, a private company is choosing not to devote resources toward amplifying calls for violent insurrection by the most powerful governmental authority.

I dunno but my decision is probably influenced by the weight of kneeling vs trying to overthrow an election.

Now you're changing the argument. If I said the circumstances are different (they are), then you'd accuse me of avoiding the accusation.

That shithead Reich (one of the worst people on earth btw) is accusing the right of hypocrisy, but he can't do that without also inadvertently pointing out the hypocrisy of the left.

It's just sophistry to be used on dumb people.

I like how I'm the one that gets insulted for no reason rather than argued with, but I'm the tough guy.
