It's always feelings that comes first in a leftists' mind. So what if his name is Robert Lee? I'm pretty sure his parents didn't intentionally call him 'Robert' so that idiots could just moan about something for a day. Just let the guy be. If the world is going to turn out with feelings coming first, a guy called 'David Cameron' will be publicly humiliated because he offended a dead pigs' feelings. |

According to other reports, Lee himself requested to be removed from the University of Virginia game and reassigned to Youngstown State-Pittsburgh game. Seems like a publicity to stunt by Lee. If any politics was involved in the decision, it could easily be argued the other way that his removal is racist because ESPN failed to recognize that "Lee" is an extremely common name among East Asian ethnic groups. |

Putin - fascist is wrong. Fascist are far Right Winged. " Aggressor nations " are labeled by some western countries as China, Russia, Syria etc. Yet history shows even to a blind man countries like the USA and GB's foreign policy record are far worse yet considered Democratic and fair. Saddam was called a dictator and despot for killing his own people and attacking neighbouring countries. Yet Saudi A openly execute citizens for opposing the Govt ( beheadings ) and have attacked far more countries and called an ally in the West. Nth Korea called a paranoid state while we forget about own Govt spying on citizens and reducing their rights under the black cloud of Terrorism paranoia. Many more examples also exist but I guess by now you get the point. It's too easy to label something incorrectly provided you have the media on side to push those same ideas. Remember the Axis of Evil ( Iran, Iraq, and North Korea ). Hardly successful states at their time but hardly Axis of Evil when compared to 54 countries attacked since WW2 delivering democracy and freedom through bombs and bullets. Understanding the meaning of the words used often betrays those who we think we should trust. |

Another thing about Saudi Arabia (and in some parts, Iran) - oppression of women. Women in these countries are forced to wear a hijab or veil because of the political ideology of the two countries. When worn loosely or not at all, these women can be jailed, or even executed (https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2312363/woman-in-saudi-arabia-faces-calls-for-her-execution-after-being-pictured-without-a-hijab/). It is wrong on so many levels. And today, we are seeing that the hijab is a sign of feminism, when in fact it is a sign of policies which are outdated, misogynistic and tyrannical, on so many levels. |

Would like him to build the wall though, and conservative Youtube Channel 'PragerU' does an excellent explanation as to why it should be built. I recommend you to watch PragerU, they have some very good videos that are only between 3-6 minutes long and talk lots about politics today, such as the environment, taxes and the two main parties of the good ol' US of A. |

Left or right. They're all the same. Left is full of contradictions but so are the right. Take this statement for example:
"The left always do this to people who sit on the right wing of the political spectrum. They label many conservatives (like me) as being racist and homophobic etc." The person who said this rightly calls out those in the left who make gross generalizations, then proceeds to defend making gross generalizations of their own, about the left, because the alleged generalized left do it. Is this person trolling or am I meant to take their hypocrisy as a rational position? To me this is the entire problem with Trump politics. People excuse shitty behavior and saying shitty things because they can point to some example, however obscure, that someone else has done and claim they can now do it as a general practice, no matter how much they supposedly disagree with that behavior or type of statement. Really it's just an excuse to be shitty and laying the responsibility on someone else. |
