So when I got my girlfriend pregnant when we were in high school, you want to make it illegal for us to get married and raise our child together?
Are you saying that a child can decide to permanently mutilate their bodies and inject themselves with hormones, but they can't decide to get married? And that's if the left allows the child to escape the womb with their lives.
LMAO this weirdo actually double downs on child marriage what a twist
And then of course another pivot to bigotry unprompted.

Between 2007-2017 extremists of every stripe have killed 372 Americans. 74 percent of those killings were committed by right wing extremists.
Only 2 percent of those deaths were at the hands of left wing extremists.

Pointing out hypocrisy is important. The best part is watching you all defend and downplay murders, riots, arson, child trafficking, etc. If these are the hills you all want to die on, then by all means, have at it. It's not like your at 19% approval and your media allies' ratings are cratering and experiencing mass layoffs while the country continues shifting to the right, especially Gen Z men.
Your attempts to point out hypocrisy are slightly undermined by your repeated inability to see the problem when it's on your side. Like, cmon, I'm giving you a free win here. All it takes is for you is to condemn the right-wing antisemitism, I'll even let you off on the specific ties to those in the White House. Like, "agreeing with Hitler" is a bit of a red flag, right? That shouldn't be so hard for you to say.
Charlie Kirk Denounces Man Asking About Killing People He Says Stole Election https://www.newsweek.com/charlie-kirk-guns-kill-people-election-fraud-1642588
"At this point, we're living under a corporate and medical fascism. This is tyranny. When do we get to use the guns?" the man asked, prompting cheers and applause from the crowd.
"That's not a joke, I'm not saying it like that. I mean, literally, where's the line? How many elections are they going to steal before we kill these people?"

Cherry picking stories to fit your narrative is the reason this wall of crap gets ignored. Where's the Tennessee school shooter? Where's the free Palestine Jew murderer? I don't see Luigi on here at all. Who burned down black businesses and neighborhoods during the Summer of Love 2020? Who are now attacking police officers in LA and NYC. So weird how you purposefully omit all of the leftwing violence.
I know you aren't stupid, so you must be spreading misinformation on purpose.

You clearly don't think every post needs to contain links to evidence of both left and right wing crimes, or you'd be leading by example. You're doing the opposite and purposefully ignoring some when they do come up, for some weird reason.

I haven't updated this with recent events in the past year but these examples do not move the needle on the examples, and furthermore some of your "examples" do not state the political affiliation of the accused. The statistics shared state that 24% of the violence comes from apolitical individuals and happens to mention the burning of businesses and neighborhoods as being people from outside these communities looking to loot. Other examples of the burning were found to be at the hands of right wing groups trying to make the left look bad to fool people like you. This clearly worked.

I called out that he would do this too. He does this when he doesn't disappear after being presented actual data when it comes to violence, sexual abuse, racism etc. He will just pivot to bigotry like that transphobic remark, and he may genuinely believe the misinformation he posts. In fact there are some examples on these lists I provided that do include actions by those who identify as left wing but per the statistics only taking up 2% of the list would be accurate.

Cool, so I'll ask for a third time. What's your opinion on the examples of antisemitism in the very first post of this thread? You missed it the last few times I asked.
My personal favourite is the Director of the FBI claiming not to know the guy who really likes Mein Kampf and whose podcast he was a guest on eight times. Said guy then calls him an obvious liar, because, uh, he was a guest eight times. It's almost like the director knows he probably shouldn't be associated with the Mein Kampf guy, but did it anyway...

You were so close, but you just couldn't help adding in the disclaimer that other people have done worse antisemitism. Yes, well observed, the Director of the FBI has not stabbed anyone. But as you say, all forms should be condemned, so I'll assume you're also condemning those in the post even if you softened the blow for some reason.
I guess I'll take it, it's some progress. We are now in agreement that it's bad for the Director of the FBI to be associated with a guy who thinks Mein Kampf is visionary.

Are you trying to say that an Indian-American is associating himself with someone who glorifies Mein Kampf? Using the left's rules, that's blatantly racist. Next you're gonna tell me that going to the gym and supplementing protein is fascist.

Dude, just take the W. You did it, you denounced antisemitism in both the right and the left. I don't know what this "rule" you're talking about is, and if it were real I wouldn't agree with it, so I guess that's another point we agree on, congratulations. Same with protein, I'll help beat up that strawman if you need.
Its going to sound like backtracking if you go from your shining example of non-partisanship to trying to act like it didn't happen for someone on your side. Which of these do you disagree happened?
1) that Stew Peters is a nutjob, who frequently talks about how Jews are evil, control the world, how the Holocaust didn't happen, how... they did the Titan sub explosion, apparently? Damn.
2) that Kash Patel has appeared on his show eight times, where he fights valiantly against this nonsense and- no, just kidding, he doesn't do anything about it. You don't get invited to a show eight times by fighting with its host. Patel offered Peters legal assistance for crying out loud.
3) that Patel said he didn't know Peters, and Peters called him an obvious liar for saying this. Doesn't really tie into the accusations, I just find that funny, how upset he got at his buddy saying he didn't know him. All he had to do was play along.
“Fight with Kash came to the aid of Stew Peters and 'The Stew Peters Show' because of Kash Patel personally, who personally knew me because of multiple appearances on this program, and then we exchanged contact information, and we directly text via personal cell phones constantly, and we’re on the phone with each other as Fight with Kash was hiring a team of attorneys to represent Stew Peters and the Stew Peters network against the Rolling Stone. So he absolutely knows who I am.”
If you want another easy win, I guess you could call Peters an idiot and a liar, I mean with all the stuff he says that's fairly evident. Then we can say he's lying about Patel too and we'll give Patel the benefit of the doubt that he went on that show (eight times) to fight his misinformation, even if there are little to no examples of that.
Man, infighting is so fun. Who's right here, out of the right wing guy and the right wing guy?

Parental consent is usually required but FWIW most US states allow marriage under 18yo. And when it happens it's usually the same situation he described. (Girl gets pregnant.)
