Yall better not sit this election out. 'Cause Captain 'Merica sure isnt.
They actually tend not to vote when it actually comes down to it. Trump was actually a bit of an exception because he was viewed almost fanatically.
If students ever actually bothered, the left would probably win pretty much all of the time. And this is a problem in many countries, not just the United States.
The right will always prioritize the old population (aka direct their propaganda mostly at them) because they know, for whatever reason, younger people don't vote.
He added: "This is what many on the left will do, they'll take a clip of that and they will run with it and, all of a sudden, the statement that is that you want to 'kill everybody' or whatever. We all know that's not what you meant to get across."
Fuck these gaslighting pieces of shit
That's all the man said! He gave a list of people, and then said he wanted to kill them. It's not like he was giving a review of the Barbie movie and anecdotally said that sometimes he has dark thoughts. He said he wants to kill anyone who doesn't support Trump.
"How dare the left use things that the right says and does against them! Doesn't the left know that they are supposed to only say flattering things about the right as they sit and get bulldozed? The nerve of the left pointing out the things we are actually saying and doing!"
This is literally what that douchenozzle did on stage a few years ago. I'm forgetting who it was but he said "the only good Democrat is a dead one" and then immediately had to backpedal saying "I mean politically dead, you know they'll take that out of context."
Sorry fucko but the audience cheered like crazy to your bullshit BEFORE you backpedaled.
And they wonder why we think they're lunatics.
Think? Most of them are lunatics and some even worse.
I don't think they're lunatics, I know they are. It's plainly observable.
Ask a democrat what they want and they say affordable healthcare, housing, education, social mobility, better work hours and wages; you know, better quality of life in general.
Ask a republican what they want and they'll say 'hurkdydurk I'm 'onna kill me some lib'rals durrr' like this guy. I literally think he may have drooled on himself while slurring that sentence out.
If someone tells you they want to kill you, believe them.
Since this kind of rhetoric always leads to violence, please stay safe out there, and don't be hesitant to report harassment.

He’s backpedaling but it seems pretty clear that he was in agreement at the time
“I agree with that” doesn’t get much more in agreement than that.
Mf actually said (hastily) “I agree”
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/2H7D2lNAeeY
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Just spins for me and doesn’t play video. Cool concept though, I hope it takes off.
Ah, the "globalists".
I need not watch past that, because now I know he's on the side of Captain Inbred.
RSBN host Brian Glenn then offered support to Alvarez and said the clip would be viewed out of context by those on the left.
Don't think he knows what that means.
If US society continues to devolve and these people actually attempt to make good on these threats, don’t expect the police to save you. Just saying.
Tom Morello got one thing wrong; it's now more like all of those that work forces.
These dang leftists just aren’t gonna understand the context of agreeing that some people should be murdered! It’s just what cancel culture breeds!
I can’t help but think if these people were brown or wore turbans they’d all be in jail by now.
s/backpedals/agrees wholeheartedly then backpedals later/
Imagine being so indoctrinated with a political party that that's your stance. The party's meant to be your bitch, not the other way around
Trump voters today, mass murderers tomorrow.
Tomorrow? What about all those mass shootings. These people have been encouraging each other in their various echo chambers to commit violence for over a decade now. Just look at the online cesspool known as 4chan.
You don't need to look at a shitty image board, you can load up Fox News, One America, The Babylon Bee, shit you can just load up Twitter and get plugged right in to your very own right wing grifter telling you what to be mad about and who you want to kill.
It's your very own Two Minutes Hate delivered by your choice of bland talking head.
He literally said that he agreed with the guy twice while being recorded.
Traitors
The Republican Party is truly turning into the party of the uneducated.
Uneducated, violent, and fascist
Our best hope is that republican voter suppression initiatives backfire because the average republican is a blithering idiot
Unfortunately these things are usually targeted, they know the demographics of the areas they choose to implement voter suppression tactics like what they did in Texas.
In other places too they can have 2 rules that seem innocent enough, but combined you see where it's going. Rule 1: no more than x number of ballot collection areas (some number too small to handle local capacity of ballots) Rule 2: ballots not counted by some time are illegitimate and/or allow the state government to step in and declare an "irregularity" which then plays off of New Law™ that states the state government gets to decide what happens to elections when an "irregularity" is discovered. These again are only implemented in places that have high Democrat enrollment or are majority black/POC neighborhoods.
They know what they're doing :(
Why am I not surprised that the person that was interviewed didn't seem to have any teeth...
These rallies have gotten out of control.
They just traded the white hoods for red hats.
Maybe Fox news public and Fentanyl addicts have more in common than I tought but for a moment was like watching a documentary about the opioid crysis.
How can anyone be on the side of the right and walk amongst those who, on average, more actively preach and wish for the deaths of people. Alvarez is serving up a BS pie. He may not have said it, but he can’t pretend he doesn’t know it’s a current sentiment in their stream. He uses Truth Social actively. They are the deluded ones.
It’s 2023. Stop being murderous, racist, and generally bigoted people. Let people and women make their own decisions. And quit efing overreaching, especially into families.
Such a coward. Own it.
