70 year old white man has expressed concern for he believes lefts are about ready to start the (violent) civil war against conservatives. In his article “If we’re Nazis Expect More Violence”, he hones in only on his own group, and dismisses the Nazi title as an over the top Left label, not at all willing to bring up why this exact title is resurfacing. When in reality after Trump got into office, we’ve seen a rise in Neo-Nazi’s and frequently they’re Trump supporters. That alone says so much. Conservatives dominating demographic is old white men, not to say other groups aren’t also conservative. The article was certainly written for conservatives, and potentially those in the middle. But the examples of “Lefts violence against Conservatives” that he provided, and is so concerned about isn’t much compared to the violence other groups have suffered due to Trump's reign.
I- a 19 year old gal- am struggling to take it seriously when a 70 year old guy is talking about Lefts being violent, as if killing the planet, knowingly isn’t a violent act, ripping families apart, forcing children to be separate from their parents isn't a violent act. To be fair, Dennis Prager has one foot in the grave so why would he care about the planet dying? With age in mind he is so distant from childhood he probably has a difficult time sympathizing, not to mention his multiple divorces, so he obviously doesn’t have any issue with separation.
Young people are afraid but determined. It’s frustrating looking at the state of the world that is being left to us. I completely understand the fierceness that is coming out of people now. I’d generally say i'm against violence, especially the examples the article provided, but lately i’ve been finding myself even challenging some of that outlook..
