Editorial: Opposing poisonous politics

Annafi Wahed is a name to remember. Wahed, a former worker on Clinton’s 2016 campaign, relates her unexpectedly pleasant experiences at the convention. She admits initially she was quite nervous about going to CPAC — which isn’t surprising since friends had urged her to check in regularly and warned her to try not to get killed. Wahed writes that once she got past the “Make America Great Again” hats and the “Lock her up!” chants, she discovered that the 100-plus conservatives she spoke with were actually welcoming, engaging, and interested in hearing her opinions. She was struck by the event’s big-tent atmosphere and its diversity of attendants and viewpoints. At one point, the young Democrat says she even found herself agreeing with parts of conservative commentator Ben Shapiro’s speech. In the column, Wahed noted that while “CPAC attendees were as passionate about policy as my liberal friends, they took a more lighthearted approach,” and she wondered how a President Trump supporter would have been treated at a Democratic rally. It’s an interesting question. Its mission is to “help bridge the gap between liberals and conservatives.” Wahed’s goal is for TheFlipSide to become a news source for all political persuasions, even the apolitical. If anyone can defuse the political animosity between liberals and conservatives, it may be this young woman who is capable of writing nice things about her political opponents.

The 6 Big Ways Liberals Are Destroying America’s Culture

Well, you better make sure it’s someone of the same race or people will be upset. I can remember a time in America where you could just live your life without paying attention to politics at all if you wanted and that was a good thing. View Cartoon 2) Political Correctness: I hate the idea that some normal person can tell a joke on Twitter and have his life destroyed for it by the liberal fun police. 4) Liberal Feminism: The original “Women should have the same rights as men” feminism has been so widely accepted in society that it made feminism irrelevant. Look out, it’s the patriarchy and rape culture! Stop saying, “Not all men!” You just sit there in silence thinking about how you’ve oppressed women! Forget about the old “Women should be women and men should be men” philosophy; liberal feminism is about women being men and the men being shamed. This is incredibly dangerous to our future as a country because you can’t hold any group of people including a nation together long term when people no longer believe they share the same goals and values as their neighbors. How’s that working out for us? Are the kids who are aborted or who get raised by a single parent instead of a family better off?
