JustinCharge 2,397 Posted June 22, 2020 how are your liberal facebook / instagram /twitter friends reacting to statues coming down? Mine are oddly silent about it. Not a word about Grant, Washington, Roosevelt statues getting toppled. Also not a peep about the election or Trump either. The statues coming down shut them all up. How about you? I also went over to FBGs to see what comments they are making on the statues coming down and I don't see any support unless I missed it. I'd love to hear how Joe Bryant feels but I'm sure he will shut his mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted June 22, 2020 I'm seeing very little on Facebook. Reddit is ecstatic of course. But I've been purging my Facebook and Reddit of pollutants. It just isn't worth the anxiety and anger to see that barrage of sh!t. I've unfollowed all my friends who post lots of politics, left or right. And I've blocked any news or politics in my reddit feed. Its basically all sports and books and tech on there now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,430 Posted June 22, 2020 I don’t know many liberals who are supportive of it, myself included. Think it’s one of those instances where the Twitter mob has outsize power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

supermike80 1,341 Posted June 22, 2020 I generally don't listen to liberals. So I dunno. I suppose I could see what the liberal wack a doodles over at FBG think but I don't care that much. I know how I feel about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masshole 642 Posted June 22, 2020 Dumb question. At this point, if you are a conservative - you know to avoid politics in discussion with your liberal friends. It's pointless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RLLD 3,541 Posted June 22, 2020 I think there are still liberals out there, and think there are quite a few, who retain some measure of rationale thought. We dont get to see them or hear much from them, for fear of cancellation from the burgeoning radical leftist liberals who strike fear into many. Where I have occasion to speak to my reasonable and rational liberal friends I think the conversation goes pretty well, we may not agree on every point, but there is nothing personal about it, and their of us attempt to cancel the other, or label each other. There are still people out there with the capacity for independent thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are still people out there with the capacity for independent thought. Most of us just want to go on living our lives. I don't want to spend my free time protesting. Most people are that way. The people out there protesting/tearing down statues are either lowlifes without a job or radicals. Soccer Mom's and "regular" people are just shaking their heads. But what can you do?

Hardcore troubadour 12,948 Posted June 22, 2020 I watch a lot of historical documentaries. Watched one on the Russian revolution the other night. Watching mob rule then and now is different. For now. But the bourgeois upper class didn’t fare too well then. And if this keeps up, they won’t now either. Schools are next. Should be interesting. See what happened in NYC when the far left schools chancellor there did away with elite public schools. Liberals were not happy. So they took their kids out of public schools.

tanatastic 2,061 Posted July 25, 2020 2 hours ago, nobody said: Most of mine liberal Facebook friends are feverishly pulling down statues. They want the civil war to start soon. Considering it’s 80% fake outraged white people doing the protesting, they will be among the first killed in the streets if a race war broke out. But the segment they think would be on their side.

RLLD 3,541 Posted November 3, 2021 here is something fun, one of the concerns that leftists laughed at about these statues is when people stated "where does this end", "what next the statue of Washington?", "this is a slippery slope, could lead to an ongoing removal". Now.....listen to this.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
