    I showed a transcript of his statements and how he approached the questions that day. It also has a link to the transcript of his previous press statement where instead of denouncing white supremacists he denounced “violence on many sides” which lead to the infamous press statements in question. You can see the tactics for yourself that he used to simultaneously support and denounce white supremacists under the guise of fact finding to support folks there who were not white supremacists.

    White supremacists understood what he was doing and loved him even more. They have plenty of experience not being able to voice their true feelings in public. The point of denouncing a hate group that follows you is to get them to stop doing what they are doing. Instead he encourages and emboldens them with his statements and misdirects to his favourite boogeyman and has trained his followers to do the same. That is not an accident but an intentional pattern, just like his Proud Boys statement.

    Speaking of boogeymen, here is an excerpt of Orwell’s 1984 on the two minutes hate, ironically from a conservative think tank website that is unable to apply it to its most direct modern parallel in the United States.

    Here’s the original ‘Two Minutes Hate’

    Your assessment concerning Trump is completey wrong. Your approach basically buys into the twisted, one-sided tactics of the Progressive Left Dem MSM and politicians who foment and spread lies, hate, and violence. They never denounce the domestic terrorist groups Antifa or BLM but rather approve, encourage, and enable them to clash with both peaceful protesters and police. And both of those extremist groups are quite large and violently active.

    Also, their rhetoric isn’t just unhinged and incendiary, it is designed to apply broadly. They accuse everyone who disagrees with them politically of being a racist, a white supremacist. They even accuse Candace Owens of the latter. In committee, a congressman had the gall to take her comments out of context trying to paint her as a Hilter-loving fascist. Repeating their lies and rhetoric will get you nowhere with those who are aware of the situation in America.

    Trump does not approve white supremacy or racism and does not practice either, and has consistently denounced both. But to expect him to join the Dems in their approval of Antifa and BLM is beyond ridiculous.

    If this event actually helped Biden, he would have run commercials about it incessantly but he did not because everyone knew that Biden was lying. Furthermore, it was Biden who was behind the crime bill that Trump reversed after 25 years. Historically, the Democrats originated segregation, the KKK, Jim Crow, and the poll tax as a voting requirement. And it was Biden who called black children the racist name of “roaches.” Trump revitalized black Republicans and did very well with black conservatives.

    My approach is to read and watch what he says and compare that to what he does. And also to compare what he does and says to other leaders in history and how his followers respond to him by seeing how you guys respond.

    Has the OP ever shared the NY Times article so we could actually read the article? All I see is a shock jock article from a propaganda site.

    Orwell's "1984" is a second rate hack job of Yevgeny Zemyatin's "We." Orwell read it and essentially tried to plaegerize it for US audiences. Pick it up and see how a Russian warned of the Soviet regime.

    Biden led a majority of Catholics to vote for him knowing that Biden had always favored abortion. Margaret Sanger made it clear that abortion was a way to get rid of blacks. Yet both Hillary and Pelosi proudly state that they received the Margaret Sanger award from Planned Parenthood. Democrats are in favor of eugenics, which Bill Gates has said openly.

    Thanks. Will check it out. The genre is a favourite of mine and it would be good to read (or most likely listen to) the original.

    Great post! Thanks for the link to the NYT article as I had not read the entire article before!

    Mexican Carlos Slim owns a big hunk of the NYT. Slim is one of the richest men in the world but he is just anti-American. Notice that they don’t try to show evidence of Biden’s truth but just state it as truth and then delve into pop psychology about what is wrong with 75 million Trump voters.

    Biden is so weak and so evil that the Dems are still focused on Trump. Meanwhile lack of confidence in a befuddled Biden who destroyed a million jobs by signing a paper has led to a recession on the horizon.

    Link is in the original posted article, if you read it you will see that.
    How the Biden Administration Can Help Solve Our Reality Crisis
    The LEFT likes to throw out the word 'baseless' lately

    According to other polls, more than 70 percent of Republicans believe Mr. Trump legitimately won the election, and 40 percent of Americans — including plenty of Democrats — believe the baseless theory that Covid-19 was manufactured in a Chinese lab.

    Well, it was manufactured in a lab in China, and I had other threads listing that in the forum, and the CDC continues to say it was not. The CDC claim it came from Chinese people eating bats or some animal. The Chinese communists claim it came from a lab in the US run by the military and it is a bioweapon.

    No. Your approach is to ignore what is really going on, that is, actual context, aka "the big picture," and instead focus solely on certain isolated points regarding Trump, the same ones that the Progressive Left Dems just happen to create, develop, and then twist via their MSM. In the vernacular, you are drinking the Kool-Aid, or serving it.

    If your scrutiny were applied to Trump's enemies, which are myriad, with the same focus and intensity but without the inherent bias against Trump, a much different picture would emerge, but such an approach is reserved for those seeking the truth.

    “It’s really important that we have a holistic understanding of what the spectrum of violent extremism looks like in the United States, and then allocate resources accordingly,” said William Braniff, a counterterrorism expert and professor at the University of Maryland."​

    Their rhetoric is hypocritial in the extreme. These people care nothing about combating violent extremism. They wholeheartedly endorse it through BLM & Antifa. They already "allocate resources accordingly."

    So TRUE, its so blatantly obvious how can anyone miss what's going on. People may just not want to face the truth, so they personally suppress it. It really is that bad what is happening. The end result of this kind of thing is some kind of destruction, war, etc... certainly not peace except at the edge of the sword. We have thousands of years of history that shows that.

    Clearly they are masters at manipulating the mindless masses, so that they can do whatever they will against those who oppose their agenda. Their goal is a totalitarian state and will likely be the result, as they can manufacture and exaggerate events to justify any action they wish to take.

    If the Democrat Party can destroy the US Constitution, they will have effectively destroyed Liberty worldwide and the world will slide into darkness.
