Hey, I have to deal with Social Justice Warriors all over the internet as they shut down anyone who doesn’t have the “correct” opinion.

It pisses me off when I see the same method and behavior here on Freerepublic.

The mob mentality of shutting down anyone who disagrees with the “correct” opinion is political correctness at its very core.

Disagree? Fine. But shutting out any opinion other than your own is dangerous and a sign of weakness in your arguments.

You are better than this. Freerepublic is better than this. And America deserves better.

Yes, a lot, not all, of Trump people on FR(and Breitbart, for that matter) seem to be the most dogmatic, closed-minded, self-assured people I’ve ever dealt with. And they think the way to deal with us who don’t like Trump is to insult and intimidate.

They’ve convinced themselves that Cruz is the devil incarnate, while completely ignoring much of the wildly non-conservative past and present of Trump. They will go to extreme and contorted lengths to rationalize ridiculous things Trump says. Even though Trump has bragged of his “deal making” prowess, and how he will work with the democrats, they remain convinced he will do all the things he sold them early in the campaign, even as he waffles on many of them.

Contrary to what many Trumpers believe, yes, the US does need some foreign highly skilled employees to fill positions in high tech companies. And Cruz has clearly stated that it is already against the law to fire employees for the purpose of bringing in foreign workers. The law just needs to be enforced, just as the laws need to be enforced at the border.

Even in this thread, people are shocked and offended that Cruz may be looking and preparing towards 2020, just in case. What did they expect he would do? How do we even know Trump actually wants to spend the last eight good years of his life in the White House?

As to the convention, Cruz will give a great speech that both supports Trump and rallies conservatives to the cause of keeping Hellary the heck away from the White House.

You're a jerk; grow up!

Just because you hang out on other sites most of the time ( no wonder I don't recognize your nic, even though you have an early sign-up date ) and get shut down because obviously you don't know how to beat the morons there, don't push those flies off on me!

My posts are plainly written and easy to comprehend for those with more than 3 working brain cells! I am the antithesis of PC; which I abhor, loathe, and abominate. It's hardly my fault/problem that you are incapable of understanding simple facts.

Yes, I am better than YOU shall ever be; however, FR has ALWAYS been as it is now ( except in the beginning there were far fewer idiotic, uneducated, political naifs posting than there are now )during primary and election season.

Cruz lost....get over it and he wasn't qualified anyway!

The owner has decreed that this is a TRUMP supporting site. If you don't like it, go back to fighting with the moronic SOCIAL JUSTICE poster you are incapable of besting. LOL
