The KKK today is closely aligned with the RepubliKlan Party

(A) If you have an issue with the Klan, go after the Klan.
If you have an issue with the Republicans, go after them!
There are plenty of abuses of party power and corporate interests to go after
individuals who do wrong, why not hold those actual wrongdoers accountable?
Why this insistence on allowing mobs and corporate interests to commit abuses,
but never go after them, and only abuse the crimes to "blame parties for points."
Doesn't this allow wrongdoers to go unpunished if the wrong groups get the blame?
(B) Also your insinuation above is like accusing Democrats of enabling and sympathizing
* with Jihadists because of sympathy with peaceful law abiding Muslims and Palestinians who aren't terrorists but "associated with them"
* with Human Traffickers because of sympathy with peaceful law abiding immigrants and workers who aren't criminals but "associated with them"
Does this help for members of both parties
to accuse "the other group of Guilt by Association"?
Isn't this just deflection and distraction, and does nothing
but allow wrongdoers to keep getting away with crimes
while the public and media are "too busy pointing the finger at other groups."
How do you expect to get accountability by blaming one group
for wrongs that another groups is guilty of, instead of going after
each one to address and correct their OWN wrongs they are answerable for???
This kind of "mob mentality" and "collective judgment and punishment"
is what fuels War by "dehumanizing and demonizing" individuals as a "group that is hated and feared."
rightwinger if you and I are both progressives,
if we don't like the mob mentality behind war behind mobs like hateful clans and gangs,
what business would you or I have in blaming people because of the
crimes of "groups associated with groups"
Do you understand this is not how democratic due process works?
Do you believe it is fair if YOU got convicted judged or punished by law because of
the wrongful actions of "other people associated with you?"
Do you believe in the Golden Rule and not mistreating, misjudging or maligning people
the way YOU would not want to be treated either?
Or do you believe in continuing this endless war and bullying
where both groups just sling mud and demean the other by accusing
whole groups? Instead of just going after the actual wrongdoers?
What do you really hope to achieve by this tactic
and does it really help when BOTH parties accuse each other
and NEVER GO AFTER THE REAL WRONGDOERS!
