I'm not as congenial as the previous posters. You, sir, are an equivocating cuntbag. If you think the tailgates of the left pictured here are examples of "extreme hatred" and are on par with saying fuck Hillary and wishing she'd been murdered by OJ Simpson, you're a fucking idiot.

. . . don't sugar-coat it, tell us what you really think. 
@FearlessFly Do I ever sugar-coat anything?
@JeffMurray IMO, ad hominem (name calling) is unnecessary and belies any claim of Critical Thinking. 
@Umbrella_Guard "'equivocating cuntbag"' "you're a fucking idiot"'
. . . not sure if you are being facetious/satirical/troll, I don't think those words are in any way vague.
@FearlessFly First, you misquoted me on that second one, I said If X then Y, not simply Y. Either way, I don't give a shit.
You're also misusing Ad Hominem. I'm not saying his argument is wrong because he's an equivocating cuntbag, I'm saying he's an equivocating cuntbag because of his asinine argument.
@JeffMurray its IS important to be precise! Anyway, i agree 100% with your assessment......
I think Paul4747 covered pretty much what I was going to say. To add to that though, when it comes to racism and bigotry, the right leads the charge. Pretty much any time anyone in this country has ever demanded equality and justice you can bet that it was always the conservative right that was standing in the way each and every time.
And yes, there is a lot of hate coming from the left. We hate racism, bigotry, injustice, white supremacy, fascism, and inequality. I'm okay with hating those things. The right seem to embrace those things.

1/4 of those is absolutely true. One more... debatable. The other two are merely spewing lies and bile. And I don't see any overt hatred in the statement, "Poverty exists... because we can't satisfy the rich." It seems more like a statement of fact, when the top 1% has come to own 70% of the nation's wealth, up from 35% only 6 years ago.
The hatred does not come equally from "both sides". Democrats never denied that Trump legitimately won the Presidency (even though he lost the popular vote). Over 60% of Republicans are utterly convinced that Biden stole the election and their guy was the real winner. (Trump, of course, seems congenitally unable to tell the truth about anything; in his first meeting with Congressional Democrats, he started out by insisting he had won the popular vote. And his administration lied about the size of his inaugural crowd. These were only the first lies of thousands.)
The bottom right, by the way, is a lovely example of projection. Which president established camps for immigrants (people of a different color) and called BLM "terrorists" while looking the other way for the "Proud Boys"? (Hint: It wasn't Biden.)
