Cool :) thank you :o

Anyway, yeah, with how abrupt my behavior is sometimes, I can understand. Like, even Error lashed out at me once :P So, I'm definitely sorry as well. I know how I am, and I'm not easy to deal with all the time.

So, some of that is definitely on me, and I acknowledge that. I do think, some weak people, like Dylan Roof, get caught up in the nonsense. Of course, I also think he had a few screws loose prior to ...what he did. Do I think conservative media could've influenced what he did? Yes, but only because he couldn't distinguish between real life human beings and...the hatred. He obviously had no filter, and he had to have deep psychological issues. If he didn't, I mean, the entirety of Rush Limbaugh's (or whatever other conservative voice) audience would be out there trying to kill minorities...and they're not.

What I do think is true is that the white supremacists and the racists are mostly on the side of the right. That is true. I think they're not intelligent enough to distinguish the difference between illegal aliens and legal immigrants. They're not smart enough to understand that the attitude of the President or whatever talk show host preaches. They hear angry voices(from talk shows or radio shows) and demonize the left. That's not right. And...because these people are weak or have psychological issues, they lash out on innocent human beings.

I do think there are a LARGE portion of Americans that also listen to these programs and are good people. They can understand what the hosts are really trying to portray and not feed into anger or hatred. There are good people on both the left side and the right side. It's unfortunate that the loud voices are the ones who are utterly insane. Then people get in arguments on here and naturally assume that everyone is a hardcore lefty or an alt-righter. That's just how things escalate.

I disagree that I'm feeding into the "liberal media" narrative that allows negative propaganda to flow. Right now, I'm trying to attack ALL media. They all need to step their game up, and I know you probably won't agree, and that's fine. I fell into the propaganda myself, but because I have a filter, and a heart, and a good head on my shoulders, I've never blamed minorities for things in my life. That doesn't make sense.

I disagree that "same thing both sides narrative" is a bad thing. And maybe one side is worse, but I can't in good faith, sit here and pretend that CNN isn't a complete joke. I'm sorry.

I think people that have good heads on their shoulders, and aren't part of the racists or whatever can tell what conservative shows are trying to portray. Now, depending on which program - like, honestly, I don't see how Rush Limbaugh is a bad person. Apple still promotes his show. Now, Alex Jones...that's another story. I've never listened to the guy so I can't tell you if he's bad or not, but it seems like the general consensus is that...he is.

I think the reason why you think this is because most of the white supremacists are on the side of the right. It's sorta like radical Islam where the loud voices have hijacked a cause. Hijacked a platform.

That's my opinion. Nobody has to agree with it. That's what I see. And maybe I'm wrong, but in my heart I feel like most people are good people. I think most people, at the end of the day, just want to make ends meet. They don't want to hurt other people. And this is why I hate how we're being told to hate each other.

I mean, my future wife doesn't even agree with me most of the time, and we respect each other. That's something which is missing in this political climate
right now.
