So you guys are pissed that some softies on the right stole your playbook?  It sucks when the other side totally shuts down any chance of debate by calling you something you're not doesn't it?  Do you learn something from this?  No, you start a poll asking if people on the right doing the same thing some people on the left have been doing for years is less bad or more bad.  The answer, clearly, is that both are bad and both should be rejected by allies of the assclowns doing it.

The difference between the right and the left on victimhood couldn't be more clear-cut.

The Left: Everyone should be treated the same, and discrimination is bad.

The Right: We want to be special snowflakes, and to be free to discriminate against others.

Telling people living in a bubble that they live in a bubble isn't discrimination, and stopping abusers from abusing others is not abuse.

The alt rights are snowflakes of the highest order who would run screaming to Mommy the minute someone insulted them or looked at them cross eyed. The SJW Left also has this problem but the right has been virulently infected by this diseased lunacy. The SJW left still is a tiny minority.

The alt right would wet their pants at the thought of actually fighting for their ideals openly, which is why they harass people online and anonymously. They're cowards and people who would turn on this country at the drop of a hat.

Radical Islam? 95% of them would be bowing towards Tehran if an actual ISIS fighter was within 50 miles of them. They are plain and simple “cucks.˝

The alt-right is very small.  There also aren't any alt-right professors brainwashing students.

Nor are there any SJW professors brainwashing students.

This is where that whole "alternative facts," "liberal media," political correctness hysteria comes from. This is why we can't even agree on facts anymore. This is why consensus views among the scientific community can be dismissed based on personal beliefs, internet articles, right wing commentators, and "I heard" nonsense, such as anthropogenic climate change and evolution. Because in the end all they have to do is claim there's some conspiracy where everyone who has access to extensive data, information, research, and is thoroughly trained in the rigorous process of the scientific method and extensive higher education, are all part of a single ideology. And, interestingly, these highly trained professionals came to generally adopt this ideology, not due to the facts, but due to brainwashing. Yes, there's a liberal bias in the humanities and social sciences; even conservatives in these fields tend to diverge considerably from mainstream conservatism. Yet these right wing types are so convinced of their own superiority that they can't fathom that maybe those who're more well read and educated came to these different conclusions specifically because they're more well read and educated.

There is a new unofficial condition for the leftist snowflakes and their deranged mental state.

Link

Pfingsten is not alone in his politics-induced anxiety — it’s so common it’s been given an unofficial name: Post-Election Stress Disorder. Mental health professionals around the country, especially those working in Democratic strongholds, report a stream of patients coming in with anxiety and depression related to — or worsened by — the blast of daily news on the new administration.


It's almost like people with enough imagination and intelligence to be able to clearly perceive the world around them or who have rational expectations of the future, are worried at the prospect of having a deranged and sociopathic manbaby playing at being President while a collection of willfully ignorant (and stupid) cultists along with a handful of greedy billionaires do their best to wreck the nation.
