Propaganda, when you learn to recognise it in all it's forms is everywhere.
The worst you can do is attempt to normalise extremist thinking and repress any rational debate as regressive.
It smacks of the 'people are sick of experts' line... Do we really live in a time where buzzwords are king? Where mantras and affirmations win elections over policies that have a solid base in reality and what is achievable and workable for Americans?
Trump openly admitted to militarisation, cuts to services and deregulation, that has always proven to work well hasn't it? :/
Why is there only a PC culture of the left... If our right wing congress and parliament make these decisions; which, have impacted via socialisation, the public have moved on to a point where we actively address and or reject prejudice then why is that not seen as the PC culture of the right also?
This guy suggests that at every step of his education he was voicing his opinions which were counter to his peers and educators, this would suggest that via socialisation his views come predominantly from his parents and their specific social circle.
I would therefore argue Colombia university did not make you vote for Trump. They did.
I would also argue the backlash towards injustices regarding minorities, women and the LBGTQ community is predominantly left wing battle, as the right (as seen with our own Saudi vote last week) appear to either agree using religious or moral excuses for their reasoning or be the last to agree to any changes in the law in respect of equal rights.
Left wing bullies? the example of which is a group of random strangers talking sternly to a woman in Hollywood, where then is the reference to the rise in far right groups and incidents of hate crime across the western world, not a very balanced argument there.
'As for Trump’s notorious Access Hollywood video, I say this: Trump’s comments are at best reflective of the type of talk that goes on among men all too frequently. It is the type of speech I have heard often and have never been comfortable with, and should not be considered acceptable anywhere at any time.'
This comment for me epitomises why Trump is not suitable for president, he makes bad personal and financial decisions, he has no filter, and does not even have the folly of youth to excuse his ignorance unlike the author of this article.
One slip...One blip... and the west could be plunged into military or financial armageddon.
What's the alternative? Hilary Blairesque Clinton, you had Sanders and you blew it..... Good Luck, we are all counting on you to make the best of a bad situation and vote Clinton.
Regards, The UK
