This brave woman may end up in prison for simply giving her view of the war.

The progressives are marching that way, silencing anyone they can that disagrees with them.

Even talk of putting g Tucker Carson in jail. There is little doubt a lot of progressives would do just that if they had power.
 
Holy moronic projection and really sad attempt at trolling. Putin is ideal conservative, his action is what conservatives want. War mongering assholes is what conservatives love.

Look at all the Talibanesque laws to ban facts being taught in school, ban homosexuals and transgenders (Putin agrees there), make it harder to vote, try to overturn elections or get people to find votes (again, Putin likes that), etc etc etc

The woman in the story is a "Progressive". DERP. :geek:

A real one, not one of the anarchist law & order hating arsehole punks that have hijacked the word "Progressive" in the United States.

Tucker Carlson is a real piece of shit, and is greatly damaging America with his moronic spew. But he is only able to do that because there are a lot of freaking IDIOTS that gobble that crap sammich up and beg for more. So theres no fixing stupid unfortunately.

But something is going to have to be done about the constant bombardment of untrue partisan propaganda masquerading as "news" being broadcast to the MENSA members in the US. Not sure what exactly, bring back something like the Fairness Doctrine.
People have become too stupid to know the difference between fact and nonsense in the Reality TeeVee Nayshun.

Sadly and undeniably, that is the direction that the progressive left has been heading the last 5 years or so. I won't go so far as to say they would resort to having those they disagree with arrested and jailed, but they definitely want them universally silenced and have been working diligently to accomplish that goal through threats, intimidation and lets face it, flat out lying and misrepresenting those they disagree with.

Disagreeing with someone's point of view and at the same time defending their right to express it, used to be universally embraced by both sides not too long ago.

More idiotic projection

facts show the opposite

1. 17 republican lead states passed restrictive voting laws to make it harder to vote, mostly red states https://www.usnews.com/news/best-st...restrictive-voting-laws-this-year-report-says

2. Republican lead states anti-abortion laws https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireS...-states-advance-bills-limit-abortion-75500548

3. Anti-trans laws https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out...ed-anti-trans-bills-first-week-2022-rcna11205

4. Don't say gay law in Florida (Russia is notoriously anti gay and brutal about it)

5. Red state book banning in schools https://www.salon.com/2022/01/26/book-banning-heats-up-in-red-states/

6. Laws in Red states preventing what si taught in school

As usual, everything the right says is projection

Well there was talk of passing laws against covid misinformation and that it was dangerous and killing g people. Progressives here have called anti vaxxerz murderers on many occasions. You don't think they would have then locked up if they could?

I'm afraid not. I just posted the absolute truth about the direction the left has been moving.

I disagree, but either way, it has nothing to do with the attempts by the left to silence those they disagree with.

Irrelevant... That has nothing to do with the attempts by the left to silence those they disagree with.

That is a lie... There is no such law, but either way, it has nothing to do with the attempts by the left to silence those they disagree with.

That's a lie... No book has been banned and any book that has been published can be obtained at a library, a book store or online. That has nothing to do with the attempts by the left to silence those they disagree with.

As usual, the left can't directly address an issue and uses lies and straw men to avoid truths that make them look bad.
 
What conservatives think will happen if a progressive candidate becomes president:
 
Can't speak to progressivism at large, but many of those here at DP do seem to have a strange obsession with wanting to put as many people in prison as they can, for as long as they can.

Holy shit, more moronic projection. Who are teh "tough on crime" assholes that love to lock up people of color for decades and always claim that judges are tough on crime? it's not liberals, its conservatives

Are there any conservatives on this forum that aren't trolling?

So the press is not "the enemy of the people", like Trump said? Say it ain't so!

Yet another clueless liberal rant; spouting the mindless drivel the MPM (Mainstream Propaganda Ministry) feed him.

Yeah and if the dems lose the next elections, we'll be storming every state capitol until 2025 when we storm the capital and stop the steal. You guys are hilarious.

Wow, project much?

Was it Democrats chanting "lock her up"?

Was it a democratic president wishing he could kill dissidents?

NO, It wasn't.

Progressives might talk about this stuff, but right wing conservatives actually are the ones pulling it off. Republicans are the anti-first amendment fascists these days, what with their "Don't say gay" bills, their attempts to outlaw the teaching of Critical Race Theory, their attempt to take the control of the medical treatment of children suffering from gender dysphoria away from actual medical professionals and parents, their drive empower private citizens to sue women who have abortions in civil court, etc.

If you want to do whatever you can to take away the freedoms of those you disagree with, then the Republican party is the party for you.

Arresting/jailing Tucker Carlson is only possible only if it is proven in a court of law that he is a russian operative. You might know the word as treason.

War is always an opponent of freedom of information and opinion. RT is a paid arm of the enemy trying to derail the current American war effort. It may reach millions of Americans with enemy propaganda disguised as news. Can they masquerade under the banner of freedom of the press?





I care more about the outsized influence of right-wing Americans flirting with treason in alliance with RT. RT’s current BFF is Tucker Carlson. When the bombing of cities was still in the future, Carlson constantly promoted his preference for the Russian leader over our own President and VP, who are “a senile man and an imbecile”.


“I think we should probably take the side of Russia, if we have to choose between Russia and Ukraine.”

Yea trying to protect children and the rights of parents is the best you can do to try a false equivalence.

Don't say gay my arse, talk about false left wing news.
