That would be the Nazi's. Also perhaps to their credit the soviets never outright launched an anti-lgbt campaign after banning them (except, perhaps naturally, Stalin). Plenty of references to "bourgeois immorality" but less of the LGBT panic you see elsewhere. Or, y'know the actual...

*points to the religious right and Reagans handling of the aids crisis*

… I seem to recall that the people baying for the blood of the LGBT folk in recent years are usually on the conservative side of the spectrum...

Wait is this a Soviet Union reference?

Nope.

Well, to put it bluntly he's just not that good at the job.

For almost anyone who isn't trump

I'm hoping trump loses horribly next year so, 'dread' probably isn't the right word

I love the new Captain Marvel series. I can relate to the characters alot.

No, there is a difference of power between the arresting officer and the woman which makes any such advance coercive by nature. Its been established in several court cases.

....No? Its not a he says she says. He admits to having sex with the woman, while she was arrested by him. There is a consent issue a mile wide with that, which makes it rape.

The person was a prisoner, the officer admitted to having sex with her. (and he also let her two male friends off scot free) Consent issues = rape.

Nah thats just the American justice system. Literally yesterday a police officer got off charges of rape of someone he arrested.

Congratulations you have grasped basic human social organisation. I'm asking if it has a leadership. Hell even a central organising figure like Spencer. You can call Antifa a tactic, a phenomenon or a movement, those are all accurate insofar as none require an organised leadership. They are not...

I'm serious does it even have a leadership? Are there even any recognisable figures directly associated with it rather than vague support?

Personally i'm just of the opinion that Antifa (not like its an organisation but whatever) have distinctly less deaths attributable to them (Are there any?). Which makes them prefferable to assholes like that Unite the Right movement where someone drove a car into a crowd.

We are NOT far to the left. Thats just the US being unusually far to the right (overton window, ho). AOC would be on the Left of the labour party (which is centre-left with a left minority), or a standard member of the greens.

Explain how we aren't functioning then. I say we have a functioning government with parties who, hate each other though they may, generally cooperate with each other and don't veer that far off the cliffs of crazy (huzzah for mandatory voting). Am I wrong to state that, and if so, how?

No its because from the US standard they might as well be socialists since everyone else will call them that anyway. AOC is perhaps closer to being what most consider socialist than Bernie though.

We have sanity, unlike the americans. We're also mostly functioning (we go through prime ministers like a threshing machine but the government itself usually keeps on chugging). So all in all we're doing alright. Even the Liberal party isn't completely useless, conservative a-holes though they...
