Has anyone else noticed the very recent surge in anti liberal attacks?

[BigmanPigman]

Between NATO, Paris Climate deal, pro-trump instigators/agitators at rallies, comedians , etc it seems to me that there is a definite increase in the past two weeks. Are they feeling threatened?

1. Impassioned defense of racist jokes....

Yes.

[FreeStateDemocrat]

2. Yes, here on DU! Some are losing track of who is really fucking us over. Hint, he plagues the WH!

4. +1

9. + 1000 Yup. And they'r the same ones who censored Dems, & liberal voices in 2015/16

Why They Are Still Here?

3. oh yes they are scared. Funny... for winners, they sure act like losers!

[Sugar Smack]

7. I would think it was funny if they weren't heavily armed-

I know, I've been told I'm no fun at parties.

5. For years we have heard the RW complaining about liberals and other spellings they have created

to sound much worse than it is, maybe they thought if they continued to disparage us we would join them. It did not work, we are still here and plan to stay. The republicans have tried many ways of suppressing votes, they can't win in a straight up battle so they cheat.

6. Absolutely. Liberals, Dems, pro Hillary advocates..

They use the same m.o. that worked to shut people up in the 2016 election.
It appears any free speech is under attack as much now as it was in 2015/16. It is much more aggressive & encompasses anyone with a voice against the coup.

They now choose who gets the right to speak freely & who doesn't.

8. Same during the Reagan and Bush II eras. When the GOP is trying to loot the country they point

at liberals as a diversion.
America falls for it every time.

10. no doubt

This administration has only one agenda: anti-liberalism. It's even hard to beleive that Kathy Griffin and Maher are completely accidental. They've been trying hard to take down Amy Shumer and Lena Dunham. I am praying for our dear Chelsea Handler. We all have to be vigilant what's happening to entertainment industry and monitor for any kinds of shifts in programming.
