(4,159 posts)which is sadly playing out in society.
I don't disagree that there's been always been some disrespectful consumers out there. Today there is a whole new level of racist, hateful, violent cult members that are answering the call of Dear Leader.

(38,958 posts)What you are seeing is more video documenting of what has been going on for a long time. True it has gotten worse, but it had been steadily increasing since Reagan. This is more about income inequality and the divisiveness that has been sown since those days. Trump is a symptom not the cause.

(38,958 posts)This crap has been going on since the 1980s and the Era of St. Ronnie Reagan as we headed into his new Gilded Age. It is caused by the stress of income inequality and fed by the divisive tactics of the 1% who want us all fighting amongst each other for the table scraps while they laugh all the way to their Cayman Islands Bank.
Trump as obnoxious as he is isnt the cause, he is a symptom, but certainly one that figured out how to play the media like a fiddle to exploit the underlying divisions that already existed.

Since it hit her, might be battery or a higher level of assault.

(268 posts)They want to get famous for a protest of their own.
Unfortunately, they don't have the intelligence to be able to pick a side for their battles.
They are dependent on getting their news from Fox, their entertainment from Tik-Tok, and their memes from Facebook.
They wouldn't know a capital city of any but their own states to save their lives.
They are the racists, the arrogant pukes that litter and start brush fires with cigarettes out their car windows, they are the ones who won't call Uber for a ride home when they are too drunk to drive. They are the ones who go unmasked during a pandemic, believing that Jesus will save only the Republicans. They are the ones who will murder someone for the color of their skin, but only if their friends will film it.
I cannot stand their ignorant, murderous, racist, insane lot.
