You're certainly right there - The United States is currently considered a "Flawed democracy"... And appears to have been on a downward trajectory since at least 2008.

Excuse me, but the US has been in the dumpster since the Wilson administration.

I'm not sure why the far left would be sympathetic the words "Sieg Heil?"


The extreme left and right use the same tactics. 8)
But my question pertained to the phrase "Sieg Heil." That's associated exclusively with the far right.

Maybe history has something to do with it?



Just because someone can put a video on Youtube doesn't make it true.
Hitler had very briefly flirted with communism at the end of WWI, then fervently opposed it for the rest of his life.
While the Nazi party had initially been formed with the hope of uniting right wing nationalists and left wing socialists, it was the nationalists who won out in the end. Those Brown Shirts who held on to socialist ideals were violently purged with their leader, Ernst Rohm. Still, they kept the name.

The extreme left are called fascists also, ;)


Since when? And by who, other than the far right (trying to deflect the name from themselves)?

Sieg Heil is exclusively Nazi…..

The Left Wing might have equally provocative phraseology…..but there’s no Communist who would say Sieg Heil.

What is the goal of protesting outside a private residence? Is it more/less effective than protesting outside the actual office location of the elected official?

I don’t like protesting outside a private residence myself. The purpose is to provoke and persuade in an aggressive manner.

I don't think anyone suggested they would, but I can't be bothered chasing the post/s down.
I don't think the comment was meant to be taken literally.

Of course, it would be the far right, the right, and even some centrists, to make the point that they are acting like fascists themselves.
"Keep up with the program", my friend. ;)

It is meant to intimidate the entire family. 8)

So, Candace Owens (black) attempting to speak with the owner of the BLM mansion (also black) is okay, right? Because I just watched a clip of this woman boohooing about needing to 'feel safe' when all Candace wanted to do was talk with her. Bunch of fakes and hypocrites...
