So haters hate and people are radicalised by that hate.... I don't believe it! Say it isn't so.
Of course as always the right wing propagandists will take no responsibility for people acting on their hate speech.

(9,426 posts)So young to be filled with hatred for people he does not know. Is it any wonder this type of hatred has increased with tRump in the WH? Why does the gop thrive on spreading hate around not just here, but the world? No one race or religion is "better" than another. People should be allowed to worship in peace, believe what their ancestors taught them without being reviled for it.

Um, just curious, where did he work? Because I have no intention of ever supporting a business that let's someone walk around on the clock with a Swastika necklace and doesn't immediately fire them.
