this is a great place to post my thoughts on the following. granted i dont spend all day listening to news, opinions, and talking heads but i can not recall any instance of a latino of any ethnicity, an asian of any ethnicity, or any other non-white ethnicity, marching around protesting, burning effigies, making demands of any kind, or otherwise causing trouble and talking smack. it has all been BLM'ers, antifa, and boogaloo. sure there are representatives of every ethnicity in each of those three groups but as a standalone "ethnic cause" for asians, latinos, aborigines, hindus, .... name a few others, it's just not happening. why is that do we think? nope! it's just BLM, antifa, boogaloo, and a bunch of puppet masters. i find this factoid quite significant in he overall scope of the planet as a whole. fascinating!
The angry man movement. They're out in force of late, particularly in the US. Very easily recognised, they are usually dressed up like a toy soldier and have a beard which looks like a face of pubic hair. They've watched one too many YouTube videos which has convinced them that rabid Socialist, Islamic, (insert anything different from white nationalist here) are coming to get them. Oh they're also usually a little porky and out of shape from having spent too much time in their bedrooms with the blinds down. I suspect watching said YouTube videos but there may be something more sinister askew.
Hopefully the trouble makers are smart enough and have the foresight to not bring their fight, regardless of the cause or their beliefs, to suburban or rural neighborhoods. They’ll be absolutely ventilated.
don't you know it man @jas43 haha. a uniquely American sentiment for people of all backgrounds. the Gadsden flag!
I usually soft chuckle when somebody worries about China or Russia invading the US. Our population has a shit-load of firepower.
Phew. I'm here 4 replies in. Please remember for all... if there is a topic for the thread, consider posting something unique instead of possibly agitating.
Why would they go for into neighborhood's like that? They're protesting against the racist government institutions of the US such as the police and courts, not against their fellow citizens.
Reminds me of a comedian that said the 5th arm of the US military are civilians. If anyone tried to invade America you'd have civilians lining the shores with their firepower.
We have to get rid of the police unions, which represent only 50% of the nations cops, so that the bad ones can be fired. Drug laws have to go, the prisons are filled with people who should not be there, and this also hurts future chances of employment, when they are released. We need to cut the White Guilt, and the related social programs such as Affirmative Action, which foster insecurity, academic mediocrity, and inability to compete, among some minority populations.
Unions must be up to something different than the time frame I viewed them as doing well. cba to google search when that was.
I am talking about the police unions in America, which protect bad cops from being fired. "Reform" does not work, with bad cops, they need to go, and all police unions should abolished in the United States.
because "this thing" going on worldwide that you have been so gleeful about has the potential to spread to the suburbs. I'm not confident you really understand what it is that's going on in America. unless you are tuned into local tv and only rely on us msm national news you really have no idea. everything in the us is becoming anti-every-damn-thing-that-aint-black. now it's "the street" wanting to rule. that is not going to happen. i tell you what i think is going to happen if states dont reclaim their cities. wanna know what 'that something' is? something bad. every rational person knows now that BLM is something that it claims not to be and just like in the land of jihad "the leaders" are safe in their lairs while screaming "protest, burn it down, destroy the infidel white man" to "their people" as they are led to slaughter. same old "jihad BS" just has a different face now. use the black man to do the heavy lifting and sacrifice. it's pathetic.
So, you're saying it might spread to the suburbs? It might rain smurfs tomorrow as well but both events are unlikely. I presume you're referring to your conspiracy theory about the Muslim Brotherhood taking over the US with the "land of jihad" remarks? I don't even know how to address that... Have you any evidence to back this up? Or is it just a hunch? What's far more likely than any of these conspiracy theories is that BLM was started to advocate for exactly for what it states - Black Lives Matter.
'rational people' were the two operative words comrade. your life matters also smokinP. no one is leaving you behind. i shared a couple of links a few days back. i dont need you to expend your energy trying to convince me that the MB is not alive and well in the us. it's a well documented fact. what are they up to? now that might make for plausible theories but we surely would not want them confused with "conspiracy theories". there are plenty of Islamic people living happy, cultural based lives, all over America. perhaps some may say they are "westernized" , some may say they are "traitors to their faith". i trust you would be happy for your Islamic brethren who are happy in the west and you would not want them or their family harmed, or have their business destroyed in the name of and call of BLM. yes in America, the land i am most familiar with, violence starting in cities can and has spilled into adjacent suburban areas. historically speaking that has not ended well for the guerilla fighters. for everyone's sake i hope it doesn't happen because it will not end well. for anyone.
I read the reports you posted previously on the Muslim Brotherhood but couldn't see anything to show that they were launching a takeover or anything such in the US. Previous and the current administration have all investigated the MB and have not deemed them a threat from what I can gather. In fact up until relatively recently the US embassy in Egypt was in close contact with the Brotherhood, I'm not sure what the current state of play is there though since the military coup. I just don't see how they are trying to launch any insurrection in the US. I think the biggest threat to the US at the moment is the lunatic fringe on the right - the boogaloo crowd. They seem to be doing all they can to start a civil war, going around shooting cops in a bid to get the likes of BLM blamed for same. The intelligent thing for Trump to do to restore calm would be to invite the BLM leaders to the White House and listen to their concerns. He's the king of the deal after all and could surely strike one. He wanted to invite the Taliban leadership to the US for talks so surely he can sit down with his fellow Americans and listen to them. I agree that a civil war or the likes in the US would be a disaster for everyone. I've seen what this brings over this side of the pond with an endless cycle of tit for tat attacks and killings.
reading this was somewhat cathartic for me in the sense that i can actually see you as human for a few moments. I'm aware the MB has been something of a conundrum for US foreign policy. I'd hope you would concede that the MB are THE shotcallers for all things related to downstream islamic jihad, and to this day one of their founding principles since 1928 is that of a one world islamic religion under sharia law control. maybe US policy is one of, keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer? kind of !ike, my brother and i against our cousin, our cousin with us against all others? irdk. i'll drop it for now but if i see another duplicitous man of color like Keith Ellison with his connections and who has been in MN politics since 1989, stand up and rail about "racial disparity and BLM...." , i'll bring up the MB, CAIR, NOI, etc again. maybe, idk. i'm actually already weary of hearing about BLM. the unrest has drowned out their voice imo.
There's a number of players/factions in the Muslim world including the Muslim Brotherhood but I would not say they are as active in "Jihad" as the likes of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, etc... The Brotherhood are all over the world and have different objectives in different regions. In fact they are only deemed a terrorist organisation by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Syria, Egypt, and Russia as far as I'm aware. The Brotherhood was formed as you said in Egypt in 1928 but I believe it's aim was to set up a Sharia law state in Egypt and other Islamic countries. I don't think they want to install Sharia everywhere but as there are numerous factions in numerous countries it's hard to know. In Egypt for instance they've disavowed violence since the 70's and are focused on achieving their political aims instead. The MB are active in Ireland in setting up and financing Mosques/schools and have groups in most if not all other European countries who do the same. I've raised this with some of my friends in the Mosque I visit and they've said that the Brotherhood is only interested in education and religious matters here but they couldn't be sure what they were up to in other regions.
