trump is a secret Muslim!

 

see how that works?

Trump's just a puppet. That's clear already. He's nothing. Just a hunk of cloth with the most hateful folks you can find in government with their hands all crammed in it.

Well, there is a huge difference between making stuff up like that and simply stating facts about Trump.

Well, there is a huge difference between making stuff up like that and simply stating facts about Trump.

 

So, it would be OK to say, "President elect and alleged child molester"?

[+Malamute]

Well,... there was a court case filed.  But it was dropped.

 

I think Trumps biggest problem is he is a compulsive liar.  He lies about stuff that doesn't even matter. That is when ya know it is bad. 

[Wild Bill]

Does he lie or does he convince himself that it's true?

[+Malamute]

Both.  I think it is voluntary and involuntary.

[berzerker1982]

We are way past that. Looking ahead at the mess you helped make. A HUGE mess that will last for the rest of our lives. IT'S HUGE. And you posting on a cannabis web site every day pretending to be an advocate, when you are just a Republican Drone that will buy anything they are selling.

This is not the kind of site that just bashes people for their opinions is it?

 

So do you ban people who you don't agree with?

Donald Trump Building Team of Racists

 

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/11/donald-trump-building-team-of-racists.html

 

 

Donald Trump’s presidential campaign bludgeoned modern norms about the acceptability of racism. The candidate proposed a religious test for immigrants, and called a federal judge unfit on the grounds of his heritage. Trump could have decided to put the racial demagoguery of the campaign behind him, and it could have been remembered as a divisive ploy to win that did not define his administration, like George Bush’s manipulation of white racial panic to defeat Michael Dukakis in 1988. But Trump, perhaps predictably, is making a different choice. His early staffing choices are redefining the boundaries of acceptable racial discourse in Republican politics.

 

Michael Flynn, Trump’s new national security adviser, would be disqualified from a normal administration on multiple grounds. He is paid by authoritarian regimes in Turkey and Russia, as well as Russia’s propaganda apparatus. Multiple figures who worked with him in the military describe him as “unhinged,” a highly negative quality for a primary foreign-policy adviser.

 

The singular belief that lies at the core of Flynn’s worldview is indiscriminate hatred of Islam. George W. Bush’s administration took pains to distinguish terrorists who use Islam to justify murder from the peaceful majority. Since then, most Republicans have adopted the irresponsible talking point that it is essential to use the words “radical Islam” rather than phrasing calculated to win over Muslim moderates. Flynn takes this reasoning several steps further. He openly endorses indiscriminate fear of the entire religion:

 

Michael Flynn:  "Fear of Muslims is RATIONAL: please forward this to others: the truth fears no questions...

 "

 

 

Jeff Sessions, Trump’s new attorney general, originally had the political profile of a white reactionary Alabama politician in the Old South mode. The Senate rejected his bid for a federal judgeship in 1986 over a series of racist remarks he’d made, some of which he confirmed. Sessions called the NAACP “un-American” and accused it of “forcing civil rights down the throats of people,” and he allegedly called a black lawyer “boy” and warned him to be careful how he addressed white people.

 

Despite his rejection by the Senate, Sessions won election in the state, and his racial repertoire has since expanded beyond the traditional Deep South mode. He has enthusiastically embraced arch-restrictionist stances on immigration. He objected to the National Endowment for the Humanities distributing books about Islam to public libraries. He is obsessed with a shadowy globalist media-business conspiracy in general, and the role of George Soros in particular.

 

Steve Bannon, Trump’s chief strategist, has attracted perhaps the most controversy. That Bannon’s ex-wife has testified to his hatred of Jews has attracted a great deal of attention, but this fact both over- and understates the racial nature of his beliefs. Bannon’s journalistic work is centrally dedicated to the task of refashioning conservatism along white-identity lines. His publication, Breitbart News, has promoted the “alt-right.” Breitbart itself defines the alt-right as a more intelligent version of skinheads:

"There are many things that separate the alternative right from old-school racist skinheads (to whom they are often idiotically compared), but one thing stands out above all else: intelligence. Skinheads, by and large, are low-information, low-IQ thugs driven by the thrill of violence and tribal hatred. The alternative right are a much smarter group of people."

 

 

When asked by Trump about using immigration to keep talented minds, Bannon replied, “When two-thirds or three-quarters of the CEOs in Silicon Valley are from South Asia or from Asia, I think …” Bannon said. “A country is more than an economy. We’re a civic society.” This was false as a matter of fact, but reflected Bannon’s obsession with maintaining America’s white identity.

 

The right-wing columnist Ben Shapiro, a former Breitbart staffer, has lambasted the publication for abandoning traditional movement conservatism for the alt-right version. Bannon’s project at Breitbart and his work with Trump is the culmination of his ideological ambitions. He has dreamed of rebuilding the Republican Party around a principle of white-identity politics. Bannon avoids explicit appeals to formal racism, though he also cultivates alliances with explicit racists.

 

The theme connecting Bannon’s ideology with Flynn and Sessions is an intensified and narrow nationalism. The Bannonites see a “real” America as under threat by demographic transformation, and the waves of immigrants eating away at its culture from below are in alliance with a global and disproportionately Jewish media and business elite from above. Their project is to preserve white Christian American identity, and wage a civilizational war against Islam in alliance with other white Christian powers, especially Russia.

 

This ideology is often portrayed as a frontal attack on traditional conservatism. It is not quite that. Its differences with the Paul Ryan version of conservatism lie mostly around the margins and in its areas of emphasis. Many Republicans agree with free trade and have even been willing to support immigration reform if necessary to defend their party’s electoral viability. (In 2013, Republican barometers like Charles Krauthammer and Sean Hannity forcefully endorsed immigration reform.) But the main points of emphasis in traditional conservatism lie elsewhere. It is primarily concerned with opposing redistribution from rich to poor.

 

Bannon is less obsessed with cutting the top tax rate, deregulating Wall Street, and reducing social spending than the traditional GOP is, but he does not oppose these policies, either. That generalized agreement, or lack of disagreement, is the reason it is possible for white-identity conservatives and libertarian conservatives to work together under unified Republican government. Paul Ryan may not like racism — indeed, he conceded that Trump had made the “textbook definition” of a racist comment — but he is willing to work with racists to gut the welfare and regulatory states. If Trump had lost, the GOP would probably have reverted to its traditional anti-government identity very quickly. Now Trump is reshaping it before our eyes.

yeah, well, whats so bad about being racist anyway? heh

[Restorium2]

Just asking, I don't want to be banned for my point of view.

You are new here, or so it seems. Are you a cannabis advocate, someone who says and does things here, and in your everyday life, to promote cannabis rights? If so you are welcome. If not then you are not so welcome. If you are just a pretender causing trouble then don't expect to be treated well in the long run. 

[Restorium2]

This is not the kind of site that just bashes people for their opinions is it?

 

This is a web site where we promote cannabis rights. If you set us up with bad cannabis propaganda it will get spiked every time. Call it 'bashing' an opinion if you like. It's what we do. It's the right thing to do.

Are you saying I cannot participate if I am not a cannabis activist? I am pro patiant rights and against dispensary propaganda. If that's not good enough for you then I guess we will not get along.

Mabey i struck a nerve here but I am a trump supporter and a patiant that thinks he will do as he said and leave the pot laws to the states. So if that's going to make anyone angry or disrespect me well so be it.

ADVOCATE. Cannabis advocate. Pretty simple. Further cannabis rights by what you say and do here and in your everyday life. It's no biggie if you are real. It will come naturally and you will have no problem here. It's what we are all about. 

Voting for Trump went against promoting cannabis rights. We were pretty sure about that, and now when we see his cabinet picks it's a fact. 

[Restorium2]

You are miss informed. Trump's first choice (published before the election) for attorney general wants to sue marijuana legal states. He already sued Obama to arrest us. Most Trump supporters are very miss informed. We are here to help you. 

[Restorium2]

In other words; You fuucked us over. 

[Restorium2]

Everyone can make a mistake though. Maybe someone told you Trump was for state marijuana rights? They lied to you. 

[Restorium2]

Here's what your vote for Trump has given us for an attorney general. This will help you understand why it's such a disappointment;

I say it's sucking really hard!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't then you are not a cannabis advocate. Plain and simple.

Well, I can say I hope he does and helps push the republicans to finally pass a law to allow states rights on the issue.

 

But, the simple fact he is putting in Jeff sessions as the person who decides,... well....

 

One must remember that the AG spot is actually a pretty independent position.

 

And,... Trump is a habitual liar.

 

 I have no reason not to believe he will follow one of his 4 main issues as stated..: Law and Order.  Law and Order means enforcing Federal law,.... on drugs.

[Restorium2]

The irony of it is we understand that those who fuucked us over, turned their backs for what ever misguided reason, voting for Trump, are going to get sick too and need some medical marijuana. So we have to deal with that. You can keep your vote to yourself but don't try to make it seem like a vote for Trump didn't fuuck us over for a generation. None of us will forget that in this lifetime.
