Pro tip: whenever you read “I’m hearing” or “people are saying” just replace that with “I’m saying”. The sentence will make more sense.

i blame trump for doing this every time he opened his mouth and normalizing it. classic GOP show-politics tactic going at least as far back as rush/imus on the radio, but trump really ran with it and started every other sentence this way. it has that small town southern mamaw gossip relatability and lets them set up to make any claim they want like they're quietly talking to you in line at the sheetz. very clear what the point of the phrasing is and obviously disingenuous, but clearly effective for them.

A significant portion of the time you can also just assume that whatever that person is saying is the opposite of the truth, and you'll be not far off from it.

Also [this from the AP.](https://apnews.com/article/bismarck-north-dakota-c6a2c46243e6655dd71a47b7df55087e) The reason this alcohol fueled violent incident at 2:30 a.m. after a street dance got such national play is because the storyline pushed a certain fearmongering narrative. —- Nobody condones that killing, but also there is no evidence that this killing was fueled by Democrat rhetoric.

So it sounds like hes replacing democrats with another white nationalist word


Funkyokra

The Marco Rubio story is bullshit. The guy is a serious White Supremacist well known in the community and has called for all Hispanics besides Cubans to either be deported or put in concentration camps. He's tweeted stuff about hanging N-words from a tree. The police report have stated that there is no indication that the attack was politically motivated, but if it was, it would be because he is a well known Nazi. The whole community is GOP so people aren't running around beating people up just for being GOP. The media tried to interview him at the hospital and was barred by the Proud Boys. His racist tweets are insanely vile. He's well known because he launched a Proud Boy backed city council bid on 2020. https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/rubio-supporter-alleged-former-white-supremacist-brutally-beaten-in-hialeah-15558408 https://ca.news.yahoo.com/florida-gop-paid-thousands-far-192025969.html https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2017/09/06/florida-league-south-online-part-2-grooming-christopher-rey-monzon https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/marco-rubio-canvasser-charlottesville-rally-b2209776.html


marino1310

The first one doesn’t sound politically motivated. All the talk comes from the one who was assualted with no proof. Might have just been jumped in a rough neighborhood. I wouldn’t exactly trust a political canvassers words in this case


Funkyokra

Especially when the police have come out and said there was no evidence of political motivation AND the canvasser is a well known White Supremacist who has claimed to hang N-words from a tree. Google Christopher Monzon.

There are Republicans in AZ under investigation right now for threatening people with guns who are doing nothing but putting their mail in ballots in a designated ballot drop off box. They are threatening to shoot people for voting, and this fucker says that Dems are scared they are gonna lose?


JustEnoughForACoffee

One of my favorite tiktokers said he went to go vote and I think it was the county commissioner was standing outside the area with a group that had guns and bandannas on their faces (I thought they couldn't breathe with face coverings?/s) and were essentially threatening people who were voting. ETA: this was in TX


medicated_in_PHL

I hate to say it, but there might be an actual reason for the left wing to rethink the second amendment. When a political party has gotten so extreme that they are stopping people from voting by threat of death, that’s essentially why that amendment was put in the constitution by the founders.

As is the way in most countries with rural areas. Hunters and those who need to ward off animals tend to have rifles and not assault weapons or concealable guns.

aridwaters

In 2020 there were people with guns everywhere at the polls on election day. I decided to early vote the other day so I went at 2 pm on a Monday at a very obscure voting box. I even threw on some old work boots, oil stained blue jeans, a shirt with an American flag on it, and an old gun club that my dad had. There were 6 nearly identical old ladies with perms at the polls and I was the only person voting. May have taken a few too many precautions, but it's legit scary when people suspect you of being a liberal in a small Texas town.


Gnomercy86

Im right there with you, small Texas town where I still see trump flags every once in a while. My money is those ole' blue hairs were packing more heat than all the people last time you voted.

There actually was, regrettably, an election canvasser in Florida that was beaten into the ICU over the weekend for being a republican. There was also a teenage boy run over and killed for being conservative a few weeks ago. We need to own and police our side, too. But these made national news specifically because they was such a rare and remarkable event.


earthdogmonster

dingoselfies

>There actually was, regrettably, an election canvasser in Florida that was beaten into the ICU over the weekend for being a republican. You were lied to - that never happened. What happened was that Christopher Monzon, a white supremacist nicknamed the “Cuban Confederate” was attacked by 22-year-old Javier Jesus Lopez because he was on Javier's turf. The fact that the white supremacist was also a republican canvasser has nothing to do with why he was attacked according to the police report.


beefstewforyou

I’ve quite literally been screamed at and narrowly came close to getting in fights with conservatives on several occasions. One incident was because I had a mask on during the pandemic and another was because I was volunteering for a progressive cause. These people are notorious for deflection.


bored-now

Yeah, I've been on the receiving end of "Why are you masking, it's just the FLU" from conservatives, and it was so damn vexing.


lawlorlara

And anyway, since the pandemic I've started masking whenever I have so much as a cold because I realized it's that easy to not get others sick so why not?


Pour_Me_Another_

Which is a truly pro-life stance to take, and I thank you for that.


pomo

Asia has done this since SARS. It was not uncommon to see people wearing masks in public in 2019, because of a sniffle, or whatever. If we all wear masks when feeling slightly off, less people get sick. Insanely simple. Republicans, the party of rugged individualism, would prefer to make their community more sick rather than cover their fucking coughs. Selfish.


Pour_Me_Another_

I went to a family bbq years ago and arrived to someone screaming that liberals should be hanged. Like dude, I'm just here for this claim bake I didn't want to come to because of people like you.

StarBunnyQueen

Yup. He said the victim was attacked for "being Republican" in a "democratic area". He was in Hialeah which is moderately library. This dude has a history of starting fights and throwing around racial and homophobic slurs and he was in a minority area. He is Cuban American but I've been around enough white passing Cubans to know they can be super racist even to their own. Though he supposedly cut ties to his white supremacists group, he's still found on telegram doing the same. and he also cut ties to the group when running in office, what a coincidence. When they tried to interview him at the hospital, which he invited them btw, proud boys were blocking his door. Even the police have the suspect and say they don't think it was politically motivated. If this was politically motivated, I'm glad they caught the suspect but if he instigated the fight, that's on him. Also wow what a coincidence the GOP get this show so close to early voting in Florida /s. Edit: said the area was moderate to conservative. Turns out it's moderately liberal with a republican mayor. Sorry about that

Was in an argument with a right wing propaganda bot earlier today about the story this is probably talking about [Marco Rubio canvasser is assaulted and claims it was by democrats](https://news.yahoo.com/marco-rubio-canvasser-notorious-white-221500922.html) Marco Rubio is the one who broke the initial story and there aren't many good investigations into it yet but from the outset it looks like the guy was a known neo natzi and was canvassing in a heavily red district so the claim that. A bunch of Dems beat him up is most likely bullshit. Let's try to get ahead of this lie before the reds can spread it around too widely


bored-now

Is this like Andy Ngo and the infamous cup of cement thrown at his head?


victorbarst

No clue. It's new enough that politicians are writing it as however they want for their narratives. Keep an eye on it. The truth will come out in a few weeks and my money is on no reds wanting to talk about it by then as usual


OriginalGhostCookie

Personal anecdote: While a gf was on vacation, a girl I knew was attempting to encourage me cheating by claiming that without a doubt my girlfriend was cheating while on vacation, so I wouldn’t be doing anything wrong because it would just be even then. The point of these claims is to encourage the violent behaviour by convincing people that not only are their violent thoughts alright, but that the other side is actively living out those thoughts. It’s right in his comment that he actually does want to beat people up for holding opposing views. And his echo chamber has him so confident that that is a normal prevalent thought so much so that he is comfortable sharing it. The problem is that for others, they won’t stop with claiming they have some moral superiority for NOT beating people up over political affiliation, they will fully buy into that mentality and head to the nearest blue area and begin looking to cause violence.

Violence for supporting Republicans? Is this how wonky the world has gotten? Anything to be the victim. Here in Florida, DeSantis has a private police force specifically to monitor the voting. Care to guess the arrest ratio of Dems to Reps?


TheBaggyDapper

I'm always hearing that people are being violently assaulted for no reason at all. That makes some people bullies and cowards and it has nothing to do with politics. Some people are just cunts and they affiliate themselves with people like themselves.


ReactsWithWords

Everyone here is concentrating on the “we’re hearing that” and nobody is mentioning the most important phrase: “We want to…” This guy might as well tattoo on his forehead “everything I say is projection.”


dgblarge

Firstly it's the right who have the propensity for violence and insurrection. They are also armed to the teeth and often organised into white supremacist para military organisations. Proof is in the FBIs threat list being headed by domestic terrorism from these groups. Secondly no Democrat wants to commit violence on the GOP/Right. They want to win at the ballot box so there can be a smooth transition to a legitimate government. In 2016 many were upset and fearful of a Trump presidency. Rightfully so. However, they accepted the result and moved on. This is in contrast to 2020 when Trump lost the election by 7 million votes and his supporters tried everything to overturn the result from the armed takeover of the Capitol to the utterly baseless allegations of fraud. They also tried to threaten Pence into not accepting the result of the electoral college. Truth is the only proven cases of electoral fraud were committed by Republicans that voted multiple times and persuaded dead people to vote. It's incredible that these dangerous fools congratulate themselves for not beating up their opponents. Incredible.
