Why do you say Veg is a white-supremacist? I don't think I've ever seen her post anything even remotely like whites being superior to black people. In fact, I'd say it's more like the opposite--that she's as much for justice and equality as any other progressive person.

She's a closet racist. With delusions that black people are in charge.

Veg, ad hom’s are so much beneath you, as you are a person with so much more to say (not that I ever agree with it). Besides, personal attacks make it look like the attacker has run out of intelligent arguments to make.

Sculptor, mate, cut it out: referencing the author of a post in some negative fashion is merely an ad hom attack and not at all helpful in advancing your position.

They believe minorities and women are less physically safe and secure than the white majority and men due solely to racism and sexism, not at all due to black and some brown people's propensity for violence.
Not only do they want to make things safer (as if arresting fewer black and brown thugs will make anyone safer) for minorities and women, but they are willing to sacrifice the safety of men and the majority to achieve parity.

How do we feel about that?
Are you willing to sacrifice your (family's) safety to achieve absolute parity (the unachievable)?
So in other words, there's no such thing as black and brown on white hate crimes and racism?
Defund the police, white neighborhoods don't deserve safety until all neighborhoods are equally safe?
Racial quotas for police officers, arrestees, prison officers and prisoners?
No justice, no peace (sanctioned riots)?

Believe all women, what's next, believe all black and brown people?
Reintroduce segregation, all black and brown judges, jurors and prosecutors for black and brown defendants, I mean that's what these black and brown movements openly funded by Soros call for.

What’s going on with G. Soros? Is he corrupt or something like that? Or is he being fake transparent through his organizations?

Intimidating people into silence is hardly a 'liberal' attribute. Stop referring to those fascist turds as 'liberals'. It's a dangerous misuse and abuse of language.
Think of any fascist regime. What is the first thing they do? Shut down free speech and get rid of the thinkers and intellectuals.

It's no coincidence that the rise of social media has coincided with the explosion of PCturdism. These morons are incapable of intelligent debate, but tools like twitter and facebook have given them more power than would ever have been possible otherwise. It doesn't take a heck of a lot of intellectual capacity to post a two sentence threatening and abusive 'tweet' multiplied 10k times.

Yea, etymologically they're not liberals, they're progressives, or commies.

I think a "progressive" should technically be someone who believes that human society is progressing toward some greater realization of justice. A "communist" is someone who believes that all (or most) property should be shared in common. Though they can overlap, they are not necessarily always the same thing. Just like a "conservative" need not necessarily be a capitalist. A conservative is simply someone who tries to conserve at least some of their past culture or society rather than push ahead at full speed and is probably more along the lines of the opposite of "progressive". A "communist" is probably more along the lines of the opposite of a capitalist. A "liberal" is someone who places a high value on liberty. Again, a "liberal" can technically be "conservative" if say their society were transitioning to an illiberal one.

And then there's the completely messed up American two party system which tries to cram everyone into two broad camps. One loosely grouped around the Democratic Party the other loosely grouped around the Republican Party.

And there are, of course, the "anarchists" who tend to be very critical toward any and all authority and "libertarians" who seem to tend more toward favoring freedom over liberty.

And others...
