      Those are the same people. The people you meet in real life ARE those on twitter. It's all about filter and civility. People have it in the real world, they drop it on line.
      The Mike Tyson quote is THE quote for the 21st century. “Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”
      It comes down to this, people are safe posting on the internet, they aren't safe in the real world. So people, long ago developed ethics...a filter....if you will, on what to say and what not to say around other people. But those filters don't apply to anonymous posts on the internet.

      But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country.
      Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s gonna take care. We’re gonna have - I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with, uh, the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country - because I have to say with child care, I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth.

      As the title of the piece says, "In theory...." Bill knows the theory of marriage, but he's never had to practice it, day in and day out. Most of us can be decent humans beings to each other for a few days... a week... a month. But the ones who impress me; the one's I LISTED to, are the old couples who've been in the trenches 50+ years and still hold hands when they go out together. Bill knows nothing of that level of commitment, joy, sacrifice, and love. He screws women and leaves them once he gets tired of them or they get tired of him. The he will preach on how we should treat women with respect. Yeeeeeep!

Second, you may leave your wife but if you expect all others to do the same, then it is wrong. Third, someone can say that how the progressives don’t criticize the anti-Semitic protests as strongly as they should. They are allowing the bullying of Jewish students especially who are wearing the Jewish caps. A lot of the Hollywood had been silent on that and they are so hot and bothered about a wife not saying anything about her husband’s political position. Fourth, unlike conservatives or even progressives, a true liberal believes in freedom of expression. This means they would first be ok with anyone including their family to choose or vote or support whoever they want. That is the first choice.
      A lot of liberals (PS we are not progressives who cannot criticize obvious wrong) vote Dems because we feel it is better for democracy at this time. That does not mean most of us or even most of Dem voters would stand up for asinine things like defund the police.

    I always say that true American liberals shouldn't just be protesting systemic racism or corruption in the government and corporate spheres. They should be defenders of free speech and expression and be willing to criticize regressive ideas like jihadism without shirking away for fear of others calling them "racist" or "Islamophobic". Personally, I identify as a moderate, but I share more liberal ideas than a lot of people on the left. Yes, I groan when I hear my uncles express their opposite yet equally extreme beliefs, and I do attack online comments that demonstrate unhinged Trumpist attitudes, but I don't let myself be swept in bandwagons and hate mobs. Unless they're genuinely disturbing or obnoxious, opinions should be respected.

The same for how LGBT people are treated in the Muslim world.
