I watched a few YouTube video titles that will be like "Candace Owen destroys Liberal students," or "Charlie Kirk Destroys SJW Students." I was amazed at how the Conservatives were using the word Destroy. It is like Bulldozers ready to level any views in front of them. How can we have a healthy debate or discussion when one side or both is using such inflammatory language against each other?

Do you know what the difference is between Democrats and Republicans? It is the difference between the Dumb and the Dumber. People like Charlie Kirk or Candace Owen target ignorant college students with uncultured backgrounds, especially in subjects of history and politics. He makes you feel like he is going to debate PhD. university professors. Liberal activist is no different. They advocate for topics like open borders, defund the police, and that socialism means everything is free. All of them make non-sense.

Now I am talking about the public, not the elite politicians who fight with each other like wild dogs over prey. They are not stupid. They are, both, fooling their followers to get votes, so they secure another fat lucrative paycheck for two years. Do you think that Candece Owen or Charlie Kirk cares about Black_Americans single mothers? Or Kimberly Klacik upset with the city of Baltimore housing problem? They have their own homes and health insurance. They don't have to choose between three meals per day or a roof above their heads. They don't need to remortgage their homes. They aren't worried about any of that. How will you feel with a hungry person if you have never been hungry in your life?

I won't deny that I like some of the issues they spoke about, considering they are real problems. Kimberly Klacik smartly used the media in her video: "Kimberly Klacik For Congress. However, she never explains the way she will tackle the enormous obstacles in front of her. Charlie Kirk's logic against the open border policy makes sense. But he failed when discussed with some college students the subject of Socialism. America is a great country. It was born great, and it will continue to be a great country. You didn't need to make great America, "Great again." The Democrat VS Republican fight will destroy America like all these ethnic and religious turmoil destroyed many other countries and nations.

Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk don't target anyone. People go to the mike and ask their questions. I don't see how you can be said to be targeting someone when they are the ones coming to you. Neither of them pick who is going to ask them questions or what those questions will be.

The weird thing about liberal objections to making America great again is that they didn't seem to have any objections to it when it was Bill Clinton's slogan.

Do I think Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk care about black single mothers? Absolutely I do. I've never seen either one of them say anything that would indicate otherwise. I generally assume that people care about the welfare of others unless they do or say something to the contrary. I think it's nonsense to believe that if you haven't experienced something you can't care about it, so the fact that neither Owens nor Kirk are poor doesn't automatically mean they don't care about the people who are.

What you don't understand is the word destroy has 2 different meanings depending on who's saying it.

When conservatives says "destroy" on YouTube, they are referring to ideas, not causing harm to anyone... They use conservative ideas to destroy liberal ideas.

When the left says it, they are talking about actually destroying people's lives. For instance getting people fired from their jobs because they didn't adhere to their subscribed language rules, by physically assaulting someone on the street who has differing political views, or destroying a conservative's credibility, or a conservative supporters credibility, by ascribing false meanings to their words or actions.

Cool. Now, tell me what you think about headlines that say "BOMBSHELL!!!".

btw, you don't need a poll to find out where I lean. Look at my profile. It has said I'm a conservative since the day I joined this forum...almost 9 years ago. Nothing has changed since then.

In my case it depends on how one interprets 'liberal'. I identify with classical liberalism which is closer to conservatism than most here are aware of. As far as they (conservatives/libertarians), are concerned liberal=communist, and that's as deep as their socio-political education gets. Anything else is far too complicated for them to understand.
