TikToker who debunked Jason Aldean's 'Try That in a Small Town' video receives racist, violent hate mail

Last I checked only one side wrote a super racist song about killing the other side of they “come to our small town and try that”.

I don’t see left wing terror attacks in this country do you? Because I see a lot of right wing ones, at pride, at power stations, at events with people reading books to children…

You have an incredibly stupid take and the “it will only divide us further” narrative is just pleading with one side to accept the terrorism of the other as not to make it worse. It’s like saying that the abused in an abusive relationship is also at fault, “They are both good people, she just makes him so mad sometimes that he hits her, she should stop making him mad” .

Also love that this is your only comment on lemmy….

The public actions taken by right-wing activists include showing up a events heavily armed, attempting to abduct politicians, and militia-style parading

This isn't a "both sides" situation

Anyone still trying to claim "both sides" at this point are just willfully ignorant.

It's really not at this point. And claiming both sides are hateful is completely disingenuous at this point. One side is making death threats, talking about holy wars against Jews and intimidating the other side. It's like saying your raving gun toting uncle is the same as his brother who said some bad stuff 20 years ago. Sure what was said 20 years ago is awful, but the other uncle is planning to shoot up a school because it won't teach kids that slavery was good.

The right wingers and their former president literally attempted a coup. Yes, they are idiots and did a shit job of planning and preparing and trump lost his nerve but they still tried it.

Okay well if they don't want to be called domestic terrorists they should stop calling themselves domestic terrorists

In all fairness if the right stopped being terrorists they'd probably not be called terrorists.

Republicans are terrorist traitors and should be treated as such.

Domestic terrorism in the US is overwhelming committed by the right. Look up the FBI's statistics if you don't believe me.

People are divided for a reason: because one side is full of fucking Nazis, terrorists, and their sympathizers.

Oh, and "bias" is a noun, not an adjective. Maybe try consulting a dictionary before you misuse it again.

Looks at people on the other side of the divide, ranting about the latest conspiracy theory, very against abortion (to the point of stoning women who want an abortion), saying that slavery was beneficial towards slave's skill sets, wanting to expand child labor because "No oNe Wants to woRk aNYmoRe" (rather than no one paying enough, which seems to be the real reason):

"I think I'm good. "

Fuck right off with your both sides comment.

Nope

There is no "both sides" to this. And the radicalisation of the right wing has been a very deliberate process.

A whole group acting like terrorists is the problem here. They actually performed a failed coup.

Ayo remind me real quick which political party is forcing women to give birth to babies that won't live and putting their lives in danger? Also, which one put up barbed wire in a river to try and drown people/children legally seeking asylum? Which political party was it again that had a shit-fit about being "forced" to make a website for gay people and it turned out that never happened but legislature was made anyway because your right to discriminate matters more than treating people like human beings?

If these are the people that you willingly affiliate with then you're one of them. At least own it.

Yeah that two sides shit isn't going to fly anymore. There is nothing more to divide. They are literally terrorists at this point and defending it puts you right with them.

Fundamentalists who make threats, resort to violence, and hate Americans. What should we call them?
