The radical right wing of today, is the leftist of yesterday.
JFK would be called radical right by the GOP today. |

There isn't much left to do . The left is openly communist now, the Republican Party is the party of gigantic government.
Not a lot to choose from . |

Mostly on the left side. But while they appear willing to kill to advance their cause, but doubtful the ones protesting are truly willing to die if comes to that, to advance their cause.
I do not see that much growth on the the side of freedom, in terms of hatred and planning (as a group) for war. Individually freedom loving people are making lots of preparations for defending themselves, and some are armed well enough for a small scale civil war. But the left by far has their rage fueled by jealousy, hatred for people that don't agree with them, and racism, that we've already been seeing for the past 2-3 years what they can do. And its not below them to link up with islamists to advance their goals of communism or their version of anarchy, by generating violence. |

It works like a pendulum - if you want to swing hard left (AKA 0bama) then the return is going to be an even harder swing back to the right...

It's been that way since this country was formed. Less so in the early days of expansion, when people moved out to settle the West. They didn't have much time or use for political thought.
Later we had a civil war, with extremists on both sides. And more recently the class struggles of the 30's, 50's and 60's in particular. The 30's - The rise of communism and labor unions vs. Wall Street and anarcho-capitalism. The 50's - Edgar J. Hoover and the militant right ferreting out those who did not agree with the government's Cold War policies. The 60's (and early 70's) - Hippies rising up to protest the establishment, and the violent response by the right wing. |

I think the split is growing. And despite the governments best efforts to depict the Right as being the violent homegrown terrorists, it's actually the Left that is proving to be the case.

I simply see it as left wingers being more radicalized due to no getting their way and in return spawns right wingers willing to retaliate against the SJW, dindu nuffins, LBGT bullshit, race baiting and white privilege lies.
For every reaction, there will be an equal and opposite reaction. As much as I don't care for Trump for example, how does the left think he got so popular? It's the result of the violent rallies and campaign from them over the past 8 years; their very own creation. |

The notion that the federal government should follow the plain language of the Constitution is considered extreme right wing ideology. Just let that sink in for a minute. Following the law is extremist. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: extremism in the pursuit of liberty is no vice. I see extremism on the right as only because the left has gone so much farther to the left than the right has gone to the left. Middle of the road is extreme right today. The right is not pushing right, they are like a lead weight in a plastic garbage bad, they look like they are pushing the envelope, but they are really just moving slow, while the other side is pulling with all their might. |

Absolutely. MOST of America is "center right" or "center" or "center left". The politicians are harder core in both directions. There are no "moderates" in Congress any more. Congress couldn't agree on a day for a fist fight.

John F. Kennedy would be considering a blood thirsty right wing nutjob by the lefties of today.
And they would deride his vision for the moon shot by calling it Star Wars. Lefties are doing a fantastic job of driving both narrative, and demographics. The only question is if correct thinking people will stand up for common sense before it is too late for the Republic. |

the 50s were the end of states rights. In their desire to ensure that no one lives as they don't think is right, they destroyed the constitution and any chance at freedom. The 60s were the beginning of the omni-potent federal government because of all those big meanies. the more I study the more I am convinced the support for civil rights in 1964 was to stop black migration north and in 1968 to ensure free federal money south all of it to also increase the power and scope of the federal government |
