Just normal American Utopia...

It doesn't really matter what the ADL thought of Musk's salute. Right-wing extremists have been very vocal that they think it was a Nazi salute.

We have nothing to fear from the ADL. We have a lot to fear from extremists. Anyone telling you to look at the ADL's reaction is gaslighting you.

I didn’t say that in my post. 
 

Agree.   Weird statement to say in this conversation but I agree 

I believe there is a book on it, so I believe it is actually real.   
 

I didn’t realize you speak for the ADL.  Good to know for the future so we can get their take on things from you!  
 

:ahhhhhhhh   Really not much else to say about your take.  

Calling Nazis a Boogeyman is definitely acting like it's nothing real to worry about. 

It's not a weird statement because you brought it up like it's a detriment to call out things if they are election losers. 

So what is your point then. You seemed to call it out as if it's another left wing Boogeyman but you admit it's real and there is a reason trump lied about it. 

No I don't give a s#!t what the ADL thinks honestly, but I'm not the one cherry picking issues to use them as an authority on. 

Yep that's a good way to say nothing but act like you did.

It’s a Boogeyman for you and others because you make it to be more than what it is.   That does not equate to a statement of saying it’s nothing to worry about. 
 

It's not a weird statement because you brought it up like it's a detriment to call out things if they are election losers. 

When speaking in political and election terms, yes, you tend to talk about how issues affect elections.   That certainly doesn’t mean someone lives their lives solely on what wins or loses elections.

Project 2025 is/was a real thing.  Who here has disputes that?   The dispute comes when you decide to tell us Project 2025 is Trumps blueprint on how he will govern and that’s what’s he gonna stick to LOL. Obviously that’s the point.  
 

No I don't give a s#!t what the ADL thinks honestly, but I'm not the one cherry picking issues to use them as an authority on.

You certainly do because you just tried to speak for what they thought with their statement

I'll give you two hints as to why there wasn't media outrage over these..

Hint #1 - there's a reason libs of tiktok is using screenshots and not videos

Hint #2 - which of the four pictured had ardent support from neo-nazis and courted their support?

I’ve had it up to “here” with Libs of TikTok:

You know, one would think it would be pretty easy to get rid of the rumors of the nazi connection by just coming out and saying nazis are even worse humans than trans people and illegal immigrants.  It’s really not hard to call them deplorable.  Presidential candidates have done it in the past.

The whole point of this is, the media manipulates. You could probably find thousands of pics on the internet to support your claim. Don't believe everything the media tells you to believe.

Doesn’t matter.  It’s the dog whistle as we are always told

Yep…

“Racism is evil – and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans,” Trump said in response to the attacks in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend.

Agreed!

Just come out and say "nazis are f#&%ing losers and should all be killed and so should any nazi sympathizers and all hammies should be killed along with hammie sympathizers" 

Done, that is it, that is all that needs to be said.  No "buts" no "I can sort of see why..." no nothing.  Just that.

I listen to Trump and his followers, that’s usually all I need to know he’s a shallow person looking for self preservation and willing to tap into the worst parts of America to advance whatever money making scheme he can come up with.

I agree with the point, but you did a terrible job making the point. Couldn't have made it worse honestly.

Fair enough.

The big kids understand context is what makes a dog whistle a dog whistle.
