I didn't use the word "demonizing". Nor did I use the word "enemy". You may now apologize. "Dehumanization is the denial of full humanity in others along with the cruelty and suffering that accompany it. A practical definition refers to it as the viewing and the treatment of other people as though they lack the mental capacities that are commonly attributed to human beings." Wikipedia "Demonization or demonisation is the reinterpretation of polytheistic deities as evil, lying demons by other religions, generally by the monotheistic and henotheistic ones. The term has since been expanded to refer to any characterization of individuals, groups, or political bodies as evil." Wikipedia BTW, where does "fascist fodder" fit into your definitions?

And, in this instance I am addressing YOUR behavior. Words matter. You are accusing me of something I didn't say. So, you got all indignant and righteous, and I'm amused.

yeah.. you are right.. you win the internet .. no, wait, lets review the tape
1: I think it's safe to assume that you feel "maga" is the "other side" 2: i think it's safe to assume that you feel "dehumanization" is a bad thing, or at least i HOPE you do 3: you ascribe dehumanization = maga , which practically no limits 4: this one might be a stretch - you are inferring, and may even think that, ALL non-liberals are "Maga", and certainly all republicans 5: you compound the "dehumanization" with two modifying clauses "by whatever means" and "imagination is the only limit" 6: you are incapable, at this moment, of understanding the IRONY of you making these statements against "other" seriously, as much propaganda that you read, post, and spew, you should understand the mechanics of the process a bit better -- it's far more effective when you understand it to try and get another big lie in ... such as MAGA is behind defunding the Police, and MAGA is causing the border crisis -- see, you KNOW these aren't truths, but if you work the mechanics of the interaction JUST RIGHT, you might get a couple believers -- repeat it often enough, and BAM, suddenly there many people believing it and repeating it into echo chambers. what do I know, i only took several logic, phycology, and polisci courses to try and understand the impact of propaganda on history, while in college, earning a degree on the subject - (oh, did you see my call to authority/self-placement as authority move there? it wasn't bad) -- and formally studied debate for 4 YEARS -- but, hey, i get it, not everyone gets irony - today isn't your day-- try again tomorrow #dumptrump opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

That sure was an elaborate and excessive exercise in rationalization. It would have been much easier if you had just apologized.  BTW: Rationalization is a defense mechanism in which apparent logical reasons are given to justify behavior that is motivated by unconscious instinctual impulses. It is an attempt to find reasons for behaviors, especially one's own. Rationalizations are used to defend against feelings of guilt, maintain self-respect, and protect oneself from criticism.

If you want a Republican led legislation at the border, do not vote MAGA, Christian Nationalist Republican. I am proud of the Senate. That includes both parties. The GOP led House and Speaker I am actually numb to. I am too, “ Well they told us, and this is what they do which is complain doing nothing” The sad part is we needed this piece of legislation across the board. I hope people see who stopped legislation that blunted Russia, blunted Hamas, and made the border better. Of course, the MAGA GOP wing needs nothing at the border to change. President Trump has done instructed them he needs to campaign on an out of control border. How dare we pass Federal legislation concerning border and migration as the Supreme Court has instructed us is the proper jurisdictional authority. We have a a constitutional crisis to perpetuate at the border. Not all non-liberals are MAGA. Easiest example is Sen. McConnell. At one point or another most Congressional GOP members have given cover to MAGA. See the Jan 6 impeachment vote concerning MAGA leader President Trump. | |||

That giant horde of maga morons heading for the border in their trucks turned into a giant circus, a couple hundred pickups on a ranch and fighting amongst themselves, grifters galore. The locals are disgusted with them as well. This is how brain dead they all are.... https://youtu.be/EikjAZ3cn2Q?si=aPLfZtZHFPQ0WJdM https://www.msn.com/en-us/news...long-con/ar-BB1hOiLj | |||

The house should strip out the part where only a DC judge can hear cases concerning the border. It's not right to take border states judges out of it. The other is asylum czars, or whatever they want to call them, hearing asylum claims. That is ripe for creating issues from either side. | |||

The CONTINUOUS behavior you "noticed" was hinged on words you attributed to me having said - "demonization" and "enemy". I didn't use those words, nor imply their meanings on others. You made it up. I've noticed that CONTINUOUS behavior on your part. I don't know what else to say. Is TB40 your hero? It's really not worthwhile to argue with someone who just makes stuff up.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news...40d81b2df7d9e2&ei=63 The GOP’s True Priority (excerpt) The Cato Institute reported last November: The Biden Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has removed a higher percentage of arrested border crossers in its first two years than the Trump DHS did over its last two years. Moreover, migrants were more likely to be released after a border arrest under President Trump than under President Biden. In absolute terms, the Biden DHS is removing 3.5 times as many people per month as the Trump DHS did.

If you are ignoring him, why are you posting the ignoring notice? | |||
|
| One of Us |
So he and everyone else will know that I'm ignoring him. And, the best way to annoy a bully is to ignore him. He and JTEX are on my ignore list. If I'm not logged in sometimes the content sneaks through, but I try to stay logged in so all I see is that he posted something. There's no need for me to read it, and especially no need to respond directly or in-kind. I did that far too long. It's useless - a waste of time. He just makes up more stuff and repeats previous lies. Neither one of them have anything to say that I'm even remotely interested in. Screen clutter.

Now that is good for a chuckle! I would be annoyed at being on ignore. I bet JTex sleeps just fine at night too.  Kabob has CRS cant remember shit. He then claims we make things up about him, because he doesnt remember. When his own post prove otherwise, he claims it's not what he was trying to say. He knows he looses, and he cant take it, so put us on ignore. Quite amusing really. | |||

Just FYI ME, your signature block makes reading threads that you post on on a mobile device a pain in the butt since it forces your posts to be a bigger size than everyone else's posts. That reduces the size of everyone else's posts. Would be nice if you changed that. Probably due to your line of continuous X's.  Mike | |||

No shit. On the other hand, the obvious way to stop illegal immigration is to legalize it. Problem solved, although there is the little issue of competing economically with guys who are desperate to stay here and work for cheap. Reference Asian shrimpers in Louisiana... Or try to make it less appealing to leave your home, family, and friends with nothing but what you carry on your back. Jobs where they live? Fewer government parasites and cartels where they live?

I read your link, Lane. Not sure what an Ohio sheriff's opinion is worth; no more than yours or mine, I expect, except that guy likes to repeat himself. You or I could have written it in a third the space. I've observed that LEOs are for anything that increases their budgets and have learned that doomsaying is one way to increase their budget. Also, doomsaying gives them cover in case something really does happen. They can say, "You see? Give us more money!" | |||

Yeah, it was a poor tweet by this fellow. But it illustrates 2 things: 1) This illegal immigrant invasion is starting to resonate north and is not just a Texas thing. 2) The FBI is sounding the alarm. We have set our country up for hardship.
