Does anyone wonder why so many of the signs carried by these protesters (presumably German or European since this event is in Hamburg) are in English?

Could you please stop with the idea that everybody who lives on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts is smart and cosmopolitan, and everybody who lives in between is a dumb hick? I know for a fact that neither is true, and you should know this, too.

PP is correct, sorry. If you live somewhere other than the northeast or west coast, you ARE a dumbf*ck hillbilly assclown. This is universally true. Sorry if that means I'm condemning your uncle Conrad in Tennessee or your sister in Minneapolis. If they're progressive, they should've flowed charted that they needed to GTFO of flyover country a decade ago. Now there's no excuse. Everything and everyone between the northeast and the west coast needs to get nuked into not existing, and I hope North Korea can finally accomplish that for us. It's the only way to get rid of these ignorant a-holes

I think it's totally possible that some kind of organized PR squad (Russian, Republican, pure abstract trolls, enemies of Steele, etc.) is trying to disrupt conversation by posting otherwise reasonable conservative posts in ways designed mainly to get liberal people angry and make it seem as if holding a civil conversation is impossible.

I think it's also possible that the same folks come up with absurd posts that look as if they come from liberal people, to disrupt conversation that way.

If this is a post from some kind of organized troll: Good job.

If this is a sincere post: There are really good and bad people everywhere, good and bad ideas everywhere, and a mix of red and blue voters everywhere. Even in places where, say, Trump wins by a landslide, that usually means that at least 15 percent of the voters are Democrats.

Even the bluest precinct has plenty of Republicans in it.

You could even say that Trump even won because he performed the liberal task of pointing out that a lot of moderate-income working people feel really screwed right now. Trump ran on a GOP version of John Edwards' playbook.

The idea that liberals should give up on most of the United States, or that conservatives should give up on the coasts, seems pretty extreme.

If, heaven forbid, we have a red-blue civil war, that will be horrible, but it won't be easy to hide from that just by moving, because the conflict is woven into the fabric of life. We have different views because different ways of thinking work better in some situations than in others. Sometimes having kids with what we think are weird ideas keeps our line going. Trying to avoid and fight diversity of opinion is like trying to fight the fact that we have an instinct to eat food.

Wow. I was going to report this post, but on second thought, I do believe it should just stay so others can see a true example of liberal elitism.
I have no doubt that other liberals on this site are embarrassed by your condescending post.
And, by the way, pp. My name is not “Conrad,” but I do reside in Tennessee. Hardly ignorant or uneducated. I probably have more years of college under my belt than years you have spent on this earth.

yet another reason why I abandoned the Democratic party

I voted in 1984 for the first time, and this last election pushed me over to Independent. Up to this last election, I have always voted straight party line.

I'm absolutely disgusted by the ignorance - on both sides actually. But I'm very disappointed in how the Dems have proudly embraced hypocrisy.

no thanks

Disgusting, indeed, that the common thread in recent incidents, besides police brutality protests, is POTUS. Hamberg's a nice place. It's a shame that America is inflicting Trump and all the chaos and misery that surrounds him, on Germany. But sure, let's blame Hamburg, rather than the idiot tweeting about it how the biggest thing going at the G-20 is not the protests over his pulling us out of the Paris Accords and his anti-globalization, but rather the buzz about John Posesta not turning over the DNC servers, which were not his to turn over, to the CIA, which did not request them.

Also, is it possible that you live in the DMV and are not aware that the G-20 always draws mass protest and riots-- in London, in Pittsburg, in Toronto? Similarly, NATO meetings, the WTO, etc?

Because a lot of the posters here are not from DC or are probably parents at all. They're probably dumb f*ck flyover state folks who have never traveled, don't speak other languages, but somehow stumbled on to this forum. They are definitely not smart.

You can thank yourself for another Republican in office during the next round. Keep it up. The "flyover states" love you.

The future of the DNC everybody! <applause> Great post! Keep up the Progressive thinking and spread your word!

You people are IDIOTS. You do understand the as a result of Trump's ineptitude and staff who have no idea what they're doing, we could spark a trade war. You like cheap sh*t at Walmart? These stupid actions have real world ramifications. Of course you don't get that or care

what a patently ridiculous post. GTFOH

Native Washingtonian, bilingual, international traveler since age seven, and a parent. But of course people who don't agree with your narrative must be dumb. Grow up, my friend.

DP and I think you are the one who needs to grow up and get a new narrative. G20 protests have been going on all around the globe, wherever the ministerial summits have been held. Trying to blame Obama or libs or Hillary or Podesta et cetera is just a desperate deflection. Learn the history, my friend. You claim to be an international traveler, so please read some international coverage to get an independent outside perspective rather than the narrow and heavily biased perspective coming from American right wing media.

Well said. I am surprised at the foul language admin has been allowing.

Reminds me of the poor slobs in Washington who pay taxes out the wazoo and have no representation in Congress -- except for the lame "shadow senator."

Yeah, pretty sure that PP isn't a liberal (necessarily) but is certainly a troll. I'm so sick and tired of trolls.

Smart enough to get a President elected and to politely tell you to Verpiss dich, vete a tomar por culo and va te faire foutre.

Exactly.
