13. A GOP candiadte just held a press conference --

in a synagog where women journaists were not allowed in the door and had water thrown on them.

3. Some of those youtube comments seem like race baiting to me. nt

[Ken Burch]

4. The YouTube comments section is a bastion of teh hate

A lot of people who post there are damn close to Nazis. And there are some who actually ARE Nazis(and stupid Nazis at that, like the ones who post the clip of the "Hitler Youth" kid from Cabaret singing "Tomorrow Belongs To Me" without realizing that not only wasn't the song a REAL Nazi anthem but that it was written for an anti-fascist Broadway musical by two gay and Jewish songwriters).

6. It can also surprise you at times

I blasted one particularly nasty little thug and got a huge amount of positive feedback, even one from the thug who said he'd never looked at it that way. I was shocked, it got something on the order of 20+ thumbs up recs.

It isn't usually like that, though, I do agree.

7. prior to interent a lot more kept to themselves, thought they were the only's. with internet

everyone gets to feed off each other and it grows. like a cancer

8. Youtube is full of misguided children

Right-wing extremism is a growing concern. The average conservative parents have a tendency to have MORE children then those like us who are more progressive. These kids are fed GMO foods and raised in white suburban section 8 town homes on social services and contradicting their own lifestyles by having lots of kids and using social services then complaining about socialism and what do you think happens to the kids? Some, like myself, may wise up and completely retaliate (I was always a little rebel) against them and go left (this rarely ever happens), or become brainwashed robots on medication and go apathetic right, or rebel to the far fascist right.

15. Not.

12. In many ways he is correct. We are a majority in America and we get treated like a minority.

And, throughout history, we have been considered the property of our husbands and our families. But, even though things are not equal in America between men and women, just take a look around the world at the treatment of women. There are all kinds of repression and discrimintion throughout the world.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

14. Still as true today as back then.

Sadly. :(
