Subject: When will Rs admit their 'great replacement' conspiracy is a national security threat?
Its ridiculous to argue about the relative merits of one mass murderer vs another. We dont have to be on the side of people waving Nazi flags and storming the Capitol, or the side of the people burning down buildings and advocating for the overthrow of capitalism. The fact that normal people now think you have to argue in favor of one extremist cause or another is shameful. No, normal republicans are not white supremacists and they have no intention to start a civil war. Use your heads, people, and side with ANYONE who wants to protect our democratic system regardless of party.

Anyone who still considers themselves a republican is perfectly fine with the racism and white nationalism the party now openly embraces.
Full stop.

The more you yell and scream that every run of the mill Republican is as loony as the Buffalo shooter, the more you lose credibility in the eyes of average people.
It would be the same as saying every democrat is as loony as the monster that drove his car into the waneushka crowd or shot up the congressional baseball game.
I think the difference between the two parties is that Dems would shut down any racist rhetoric, especially regarding immigrants. Rs, not so much. They embrace it as a battle cry now.
Not every R are loons, but they seem to keep voting in the loons every election cycle, and it just keeps getting worse and worse.
I am old enough to remember when the R leadership would stomp down all racist rhetoric, and no outright racist would ever win a national election. Not so anymore.

This. I know some really conservative immigrants (Hispanics). They vote R. Why do they assume that these people vote D???
No one assumes that patriarchy-loving immigrants vote D.

Read the Post article above. Some Republican politicians and media figures have absolutely mainstreamed replacement theory so that even “normal” Republicans like Elise Stefanik are spouting it now.
She just did it again.
Wow. They are ALL IN on replacement theory.

LOL, your actions don't support your claim.
Yes, because a vote for the party that wants to keep affirmative action is definitely more racist than a vote for the party of white supremacy.
Get a grip.

Don’t waste your energy, PP. Loons gotta loon. Trey Gowdy had a very powerful show tonight on the Buffalo shooting and white supremacists/extremists. Fox News, btw.
https://www.foxnews.com/shows/sunday-night-in-america-with-trey-gowdy
Yet the traditional republicans do nothing to distance themselves from these people, in word or policy
Trey Gowdy does not represent GOP anymore and would be considered RINO now.

Because statistically, they do.
But to your point, the share of Hispanic voters in the R party is growing, and I'm betting a lot of them are white Latinos who are not immigrants.
I wouldn't bet on that. The shift seems to be amongst Latinos with no college degree. The same educational polarization that has happened with white people is starting to happen with latinos.
Well the replacement theory that white people are being replaced is false. Latinos are actually being absorbed into "white" just like Slavs, Irish, Poles, Italians in the past which will keep a white majority in the country.
