Responding to the only text that you wrote. No sane person supports looting murderous rioters. As for the rest of your submission, what does it prove, that you know how to copy paste?

"And again, I'm talking about important shit, not old statues to traitors."

No, you're not talking about anything. You literally stated no objective facts, and have presented no argument of any kind, and just spammed push pole results with no relevance. There isn't even an introductory statement as to what you could be attempting to present to us.

Here is the sum of your statement in this thread, minus the cut and paste:

Maybe it's because "progressive" politicians actually agree with Americans on all the important issues. [And I mean important shit, not women ghostbusters or whatever you incels are complaining about these days.] Also, most Americans support Black Lives Matter. 60% of white people support BLM. And again, I'm talking about important shit, not old statues to traitors.

How do you function? How do you even manage to put on your own shoes? For the record, you are not progressive. You don't even understand what that word means. Or even what the word Incel means.

"The first online community to use the term "incel" was started in 1993 when a Canadian university student known only by her first name, Alana, created a website in order to discuss her sexual inactivity with others. The website, titled "Alana's Involuntary Celibacy Project", was used by people of all genders to share their thoughts and experiences."

For the love of your own sanity. Think things out fully, not in sound bites. Type out full sentences paragraphs and thoughts, and not through quips taken from others, and stop using mental short hand in your writings, you vicious syrup covered potato waffle.

I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings.

OP's video expressed shock that AOC won. I'm simply pointing out that many, many, MANY surveys from multiple sources have shown that her positions are in fact extremely popular. Some are even popular among Republicans. Thus her victory is not shocking at all.

This triggered you for some reason and left you unable to respond to these objective facts.

What? You do understand this is text right? You have no ability to judge emotions or feelings of others through the internet.

"This triggered you for some reason and left you unable to respond to these objective facts."

Please look into the differences between subjective statements and objective facts. Poll results are not objective facts. As an online discussion, this is the limit of my ability to help you.

Um, yeah, polls are objective facts.

The opinions expressed in the polls are not objective facts, but the polls themselves are.

"Wealthy people have too much power and influence in Washington" is an opinion.

"82 percent of respondents to this poll think wealthy people have too much power and influence in Washington" is a fact.

"82 percent of Americans think wealthy people have too much power and influence in Washington" is a reasonable inference one can gain from that fact.

[–]Questionable 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (15 children)

You clearly do not understand how push poles work, or how the manipulation of data takes place. Take this for example:

"82 percent of Americans think wealthy people have too much power and influence in Washington"

That's the outcome of the poll but what was the question asked? And which demographics of Americans were asked? And as a statement on it's own, what does it even mean? I can use that assertion against your best interest, though simple naming schemes. Say something catchy like the 'patriot act' or 'net neutrality'. they can even implement private militias through campaigns of de-funding the police. Those aren't facts, those are data points and telemetry weaponized for the personal gains of the rich.

I don't kow how "push poles" work, but I can tell you that particular poll was not a push poll. It was done by AP and the University of Chicago's NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

Here's the URL for the article that has the link for each number provided:

Again, I'm sorry if these numbers hurt your feelings.

"Again, I'm sorry if these numbers hurt your feelings."

I... I can't even comprehend you. Look, you are using a possibly objective polls, based on subjective opinions, to justify your subjective statement that American's support The George Soro's backed BLM movement in response to statements that they are an anarchist group. Where as the linked poll pushes the subjective agenda that most people are liberal, while self defining what it means to be liberal. To back the statement that Ocasio Cortez crushed her rival that was... Also a democrat in a primary? And for some reason you are fixated on my feelings? Let me know if you find fault with any of those statements.

People say they support BLM because if people find out that they don't support it, they would likely be harrassed and/or fired from their job.

[–]kissfan7 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (11 children)

These are the faults:

1) It's Soros, not "Soro". Nice dogwhistling, though.

2) It is a reasonable inference, based on polling done by neutral people who know more about public opinion than you or I, that 60% of white Americans support BLM. Maybe if you did a push poll (sorry, push pole) and told everyone that an evil Jew donated to them a few years back then you'd convince them otherwise. Until that happens, however, the fact remains that most Americans support Black Lives Matter.

3) Your recent post is the first time anyone's mentioned anyone being "anarchist", so I'm clearly not "respon[ding] to statements that they are an anarchist group."

4) I know of no BLM organization (and it is more than one organization) that is anarchist. EDIT: Now that I think about it, it's such a broad movement that I wouldn't doubt there's some anarchists involved somewhere. But you haven't shown that the movement in general is "anarchist".

5) Not really a fault, but the sentence beginning with "Where as the link poll" should be rewritten, because I have no idea which poll you're referring to and it's just generally confusing.

6) AOC's main obstacle was a primary challenge, since this is a strongly blue seat.

7) I care about your feeling because I care about you, bro.

By the way, have you actually found any flaws any of the polls I listed? Because if your argument is that Americans aren't progressive, you need to show that they don't hold the opinions these polls say they do.

"1) It's Soros, not "Soro". Nice dogwhistling, though."

I have no idea what that means, and I don't care.

" Because if your argument is that Americans aren't progressive"

I don't think you understand, I don't have an argument. I'm just trying to figure out what it is you are saying. That question wasn't an argument you needed to debate, or argue against. It was simply a play by play narrative, of your dialog.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's pretty obvious to anyone with mediocre reading skills that I'm saying Americans are progressive on the major issues, and thus OP shouldn't be surprised by this outcome.

I have no idea what that means, and I don't care.

How sad to be so incurious.

Where were these polls taken? I have yet to receive an email or physical mail for these polls

[–]kissfan7 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It's in the article.

What republican supports her policies?

Read the list of polls. Or just Ctrl F "Republicans".
