Obama Putting In Work to Shift that Overton Window

[Maschine_Man]

By at least (pretending) to listen to the other side you give them a feeling that you are trying to maintain civility.
Just automatically shelling up and calling them names give them an excuse to do the shyt that they've been doing.
which clearly ISN'T helping anyone.


Disagreeing with someone, and maintaining civility throughout are not mutually exclusive.

I didn’t see the exact quote in context but knowing Obama it reads as a jab. Not him bragging about bankers getting rich.

It was a jab...from the right. He's bragging that they're stupid for hating him because he made them richer. The video is even worse.

what were obama's "extreme left wing antics"? he was never a lefty.

Obama’s extreme left wing antics
Like what? Obama was basically a moderate republican. The only thing extreme about Obama was that he was Black, with a Black wife, and had Black children. That was enough for the right to hate him.

none of these are "extreme left wing antics" @Strategicbreh

Obama was very left wing. He even went against democrats to support a Palestinian state before he left office (Dems and Repubs and both biases towards isreal)

Drug legalization

Left wing social stances (tranny rights, gay marriage, etc)

Watched isis takeover Syria and Iraq because he was passive lefty. (What other president would let Al qaeda 2.0 have their own state?

And Obamacare is left as It gets. U even get fined if u don't sign up

He was even pro iran a pretty left wing stance.

Bush expanded the left/right divide and Obama blew the doors off it. Look at political polarization while he was in office

If u think Obama was a moderate your smoking something.

half of this isn't even true

and the other half isn't anywhere near "far left"

It's far left by American standards.

Which half isn't correct??

Obama being a liberal isn't trolling. It's ok I know you can't counter

Liberals aren't the far left.

if history ever views obama as the far left then america would have become an extreme right wing shythole.

working on it



this is a really stupid troll thread btw

 

[GPBear]

Michelle Obama talks “reverse racism” in new book Becoming

"The whole affair was a reminder of how our country's distortions about race could be two-sided, that the suspicion and streotyping ran both ways."

@Bollywood Hulk Hogan @hashmander @Call Me James @Rhakim

What a "coincidence" that all the high-ranking democrats from Obama's administration seem to all be addressing similar topics at the same time.
Most of which revolve around appeasing alt-right, ethnic nationalists and their talking points.

Clinton says kick out immigrants
Obama says read more far-right literature
And Michelle thinks the race issue is two-sided, "both sides".
Even Comey would rant about how left-wing can't get too progressive, "gotta stay moderate"


It's not even a debate. If you don't think they're trying to shift people to the right, you're just ing.

Also @ @88m3 calling this a troll thread, when he was in the George HW Bush thread calling him a good president after he died. Yet when I try to say the democrats are making it cooler to lean right, and then a resident "left-winger" like 88m3 goes around stanning a guy who caused the crack epidemic.
