Did you even listen to the first couple of sentences. You are sensationalizing his words and putting your words in his mouth.

"I said look, I recognize I'm on the top of his list, but don't kid yourself, you're somewhere on that list too, if you disagree with these people.

That if is a qualifier that doesn't say what you imply it said. 'If you disagree with these people' encompasses a lot of different meanings, and is qualified by if.

No one is throwing college kids in prison for disagreeing with a government policy. It’s per sensationalism. The worst we’ve seen has been the censorship and silencing of those who disagree with the government and his political partner did it. Again. No one is throwing students in prison for disagreeing with policy. This is beyond dumb and reeks of desperation. It’s unhinged rhetoric. Hell….if Trump is elected half the country is going to disagree with his agenda. Well over half on certain items. I have a list with which I disagree. The thought that I fear I will be imprisoned for posting a disagreement on FB or on this forum is beyond dumb.

Here….i believe Trump’s position on tariffs is reckless. I believe his position on abortion is a violation of personal freedoms. See you guys in the joint.

First of all we haven't seen him function in what is supposed to be his last term. He has threatened to do a lot worse stuff than in his first term.

But if you 'disagree with these people' consists of more than just saying a few words at a rally. And if one thinks what he said implies that a facebook post or some rally words is going to get you in jail because of Trump, well then that's just... What Walz was saying was a bit sensational and then you sensationalized what was already sensational. What he said did not make me think he was saying Trump would throw kids in jail over saying something at a rally, nor did it for most of the people listening. That is, unless it was some of the 25% that would follow Trump off a cliff, the ones that believe all of the conspiracy theories.

And Trump for damn sure has made what he's saying seen tame in his rally's. I'd go find an example, but I don't really feel like wasting time on it. I know Trump's Walz, VP candidate Vance, has praised insurrectionists, celebrated right-wing political violence, and dictators who committed some of the most notorious atrocities of the 20th century on several occasions. What is so shocking that Walz takes him at his word on the campaign trail.(whether he privately believes him or not) Walz said something slightly sensational which you could base off of Trump and his VP's recent words. But only If you really wanted to push meaning onto those words that really wasn't there, in the context in which it was stated? So what.

I think you are just wanting to find something to get up in arms over. If you are talking about what Hillary said, it really seems you are hunting for things.
 
Walz “if you disagree with these people you’re somewhere on that list too”. There were no limitations as to what that would be when he spoke to these kids. The rhetoric is unhinged at this point. Calling someone Hitler or those attended a rally is inciting violence against those people. It needs to stop.

I haven’t seen anything from Trump or Vance in the last week or two but if they’re threatening violence or calling their opposition Hitler or any other rhetoric then I condemn it as well. What we’re hearing from both sides is further splitting this country apart. It needs to stop. One of these morons is going to be our next President. How do you think the losing side is going to take that ? We have a dangerous situation on the horizon. This needs to be toned down. If not this is going to get very ugly. Politicians on both sides are going to be targeted.

If he didn't repeatedly talk about "enemies within", I might agree with you.

If his first reaction to being shot at wasn't "fight", I might agree with you.

If he denounced the Nazis who to this day fly their flags at his rallies with impunity, I might agree with you.

If he stopped speaking longingly of Hitler's war criminal generals, I might agree with you.

If he didn't try to steal my vote as well as millions of other American's votes in broad daylight in front of our very eyes, I might agree with you.

If he didn't blame economic / criminal plights on his political opposition and ethnic minorities, I might agree with you.

If he wasn't continuing to chum it up with dictators who do in fact throw college kids into Gulags for disagreeing with government policies, I might agree with you.

If he didn't call for executions of government officials who he was at odds with, I might agree with you.

What you're asking me to do is completely disregard everything he and his political supporters have said and done for the past ~10 years. I don't give a flying flip how much he'll lower taxes or how he will deal with inflation. Neither he nor his allies should be allowed anywhere near the halls of government again. In fact, most of them should still be in jail for what they attempted in 2020 (And that goes for a handful of Congressmen and Senators who were in the plot as well). Get it through your skull. I can't even believe we're sitting here debating this.

If you ever wondered how the Nazis rose to power in 1933, you are seeing it. This discourse in this chat. This is it. Not everyone in Germany was a originally a Nazi.... but a ton of them were blinded a-holes who were lured into willful ignorance by greed frustration and loathing. Millions of people (their fellow countrymen included) paid for their ignorance and it left the ignorant who did survive worse off for generations.

If history repeats itself (or even rhymes), their won't be "I told you so's", but if there is some sort of cosmic justice, there will be a special place in hell reserved for those people who ignored every warning sign that their neighbors tried to illuminate.

Same. Ordinary people believing
they’re going to be thrown in prison for disagreeing with a politician is unhinged. But here we are discussing it. Only one party has actually censored and silenced dissenting voices. Only one party has unconstitutionally forced people to lose their jobs for disagreeing with their policies.

I’ll make you a bet….if Trump wins I’ll wager the military throws no one in prison for voicing their opposition to his policies. I’ll wager he doesn’t censor or silence anyone speech. I’ll wager no elected official gets executed (except maybe Trump). The left has gone completely unhinged. It’s almost like they forgot he was President and no of this crap occurred. If fact the Biden Admin restricted personal liberties on a far greater scale . I know….thats different.

Oh my god. You want the Democrats to calm down, but leave the Republicans to do whatever they want. Trump has brought the circus along for the ride, not the Democrats. Any zaniness from the Democrats is to answer Trump's crazy thoughts and policies. This all started in 2015, but you want the Democrats to lay down and take it up the... at the last minute.

It is going to be this way till the end because Trumps actions demand it over the last 10 years of crap he has put out. Any sound coming out of the Democrats mouths that sounds like Barnum & Bailey did not originate from them. You didn't see the Democrats saying stuff like this in either of Obama's campaigns, or Kerry's or Gore... Whatever politicians are going to be targeted on either side of the aisle, have already made their bed by being a member of their party.

No words spoken in these last couple of three weeks are going to make a difference. And if someone shoots at someone, or actually kills someone, and cites anything said from the past month, that's just justification. They would have done it anyway, regardless of the citing of a statement to blame it on.

Guess you missed where I said “what we’re hearing from both sides is splitting this country apart. It needs to stop”? Both sides. This is going to get really ugly after the election regardless of who’s elected. Convincing each side the other is Satan won’t end well when Satan is elected. There’s going to be more violence. It’s irresponsible not to tone down the rhetoric. BOTH SIDES. Hell….Aston believes college kids are going to be thrown in prisons by our military and politicians executed for disagreeing with policies. Thats how unhinged people are at this point.

They are not going to calm down on either side, and it won't make one bit of difference. They could have put a gag order on both campaigns for the last month up to the election, and the violence would happen or it wouldn't. It will be the result of the election, and the person's pent up feelings over the result that will bring on any violence, not the words over the last month. Most people are jaded to what both sides are saying anyway, and those that aren't probably tend to violence anyway.

Censorship in certain forums is not, by itself something to worry about. (Many democratic countries have stricter censorship laws than we do) What you should worry about is when violent action against common citizens is alluded to. FYI Democrats aren't the ones calling for that.

And as far as your censorship claims with Trump goes, I completely disagree that his government didn't censor speech, and that his supporters (particularly Elon Musk) don't continue to do so today.

P.S. what Democrats did regarding vaccine mandates happened during a time of national crisis. Republicans are continuing encourage extraordinary and unprecedented incivility during times of relative national stability.

I do agree that the Military is unlikely to round people up, but the only reason is because Republicans aren't the only people with guns as much as they like to think they are. I could though see them doing something like they did in Russia and hauling peaceful protestors off for extended jail sentences delivered via unjust laws passed by some unjust legislatures. Considering Republican's historic detestation of Democratic protesting combined with their recent rhetoric it wouldn't surprise me. I could also in some darker timelines see them drafting dissidents into a bogus military conflict just like Russia has.
