Trump will cure cancer and aids? Also, if every democratic vote supports radical socialism, does that mean every republican vote supports fascism?

[Fiye]

does that mean every republican vote supports fascism?

I mean republicans have been attacking voter rights by engaging in voter suppression thus maintaining that their shrinking white demographic can still retain majority governmental power.

And I want to say that's a key element of facism.

WATCH: President Trump declines to apologize to the exonerated Central Park Five, and asserts that “you have people on both sides” of their exoneration.

The case has received renewed attention in light of Ava DuVernay’s ‘When They See Us’.

He called for them to get the death penalty after they were arrested and their criminal convictions were later vacated, but President Donald Trump on Tuesday wasn't offering any apologies to the so-called "Central Park Five."

"Why do you bring that question up now? It's an interesting time to bring it up," Trump told a reporter who asked if he would apologize to the five who were wrongly convicted of beating and raping a jogger in New York's Central Park in 1989.

Their convictions, based on confessions they said were coerced, were vacated in 2002, after DNA evidence linked a serial rapist to the brutal crime. The city later agreed to a $41 million settlement with the four black men and one Latino man, all of whom who were 16 or younger at the time of their arrest.

The case has received renewed scrutiny in recent weeks in the wake of the release of "When They See Us," a Netflix series about the case.

Calls for action have led the case's lead prosecutor Elizabeth Lederer not to seek reappointment as a lecturer at Columbia Law School, while former prosecutor turned author Linda Fairstein was dropped by her publisher and resigned from Vassar College's board of trustees.

Answering questions on the South Lawn of the White House before heading off to his re-election campaign rally in Florida on Tuesday, Trump echoed his controversial "both sides" comments about white supremacists who'd clashed with protesters in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017.

"You have people on both sides of that," Trump said of the case on Tuesday. "They admitted their guilt. If you look at Fairstein, and if you look at some of the prosecutors, they think that the city should never have settled that case, so we'll leave it at that."

I love how he's both siding this like he did with fucking charlottesville fucking classy.

It's an election year, he doesn't want to look weak on the wrongfully convicted.

Its amazing you're willing to give racists so much power to take culture as to just straight up let them "steal" something as universal and well known as the "Okay" sign when it helps save face in pretending you didn't get hard baited by 4chan trolls.

"Yah it was a bait but they're really doing it now!!!".

I mean, its okay to not always buy what they're selling you know? You can bend over and give racists the power to steal our culture, but I won't.

[Fiye]

Didn't realize calling white supremacists for doing things that they normally do triggered you so much.

Lol get the fuck out

Also just gonna casually call out that your post featured a 'honk honk' as if alt right folk haven't been claiming that as well.

How quaint.

[arus2001]

For better or worse, language evolves. That includes hand gestures and other symbols alongside words. And while I think it's dumb, I can't really just go, "It's just 4chan trolls!" either.

[Salodin]

"I can't believe you guys are gonna let racists bother you when they're doing things that project their message of white supremacy"

Like, they're literally doing it to symbolize white power, but we still have people saying nah, ignore their march for white power because we really dont want them to coopt the hand sign.

Cause that's where were at now. Instead of being aghast that racists are openly marching for white supremacy, we have Americans complaining that liberals are upset that racists are marching down the street...and they dont even realize they're defending it.

That right there is actual "centrist" shit.

Who cares if white supremacists or assholes are using it to "troll the libs"?

If your main focus as a human is to make other people think you're racist by co-opting a hand gesture just to piss people off you're a pretty pathetic person to begin with.

Ftfy.

No need to obscure the fact that trolls doing racist things are still racists.
