    Naw we are talking about the open villification of an ethnic group supported by your government and which will inevitably create hate and division based on racial lines.

    Of that you are "all in". So again, I have to conclude that is your intended goal, is it not?

    All over Florida? If it is happening all over Florida like you said, then it is happening all nation wide. We have almost zero reports of White Supremacist crime outside of that Miami flyer incident. That is like saying African Americans are predisposed to commit crime just because we see news casts showing black crime. Liberals like to jump to conclusions and throw all people into the same boat that their minds can dream up.

    It is happening nation-wide, but its increasing fastest in Florida.

    Well, that it simply not true. There are plenty of reports.

    One example among many:

    Gainesville is the latest city around the state to have antisemitic flyers show up at homes
    https://www.gainesville.com/story/n...und-florida-find-way-gainesville/10260990002/
    Gainesville police have had several reports from locals who say they were on the receiving end of offensive flyers over the weekend, which appear to mirror others being sent around the state and in other parts of the country.

    Last week, the Palm Beach Post reported that law-enforcement agencies began finding the flyers in places as distant as suburban Boca Raton, Sarasota, Fort Myers, Fort Pierce, Vero Beach, Jacksonville and Orlando.

    If you say so.

    It has nothing to do with "liberals" and nor it is about "all people". What makes you say that? The article is very clear it is talking about fringe elements.

    Until we figure out who the culprit is mailing out these flyers, we cannot jump to conclusions. For all we know, it could be by some extremist liberal trying to create problems. It is even more possible that even if it was some white supremacist group of 5 to 10 people causing the problems for an entire state of 20 million people. To lump all 20 million people as a problematic state due to a few people is assinine for anyone to make assumptions about the majority or the state in general. Even if so, I do hope they are caught and punished. And, even if they did, the liberals can state that the 20 million person state is corrupt with white supremacy due to a few people as usual while ignoring the daily reports of race issues in states like New York. This is just a way to attack a Republican majority state, nothing more.

    The line that divided fringe from mainstream is very blurred as political alliances are formed to push or fight an agenda.

    No need to jump into any conclusions because the presence of these fringe groups and their activities is well documented. They don't hide in their basements, they get out and organize rallies.

    " Florida is home to an overlapping network of white supremacists and anti-Semitic groups responsible for organizing numerous rallies and distributing hateful propaganda"

    But what the heck, - feel free to blame it on "liberals" if it makes you feel better.

    Maybe you didn't read the article. There is no mention of political alliances. You form the connection, because its common knowledge these groups ally with the GOP, whether or not GOP desires it. As a matter of fact, I am sure the GOP is uncomfortable with such alliance. Seems like a "kiss of Judas" to me.

    I have no doubt that there is less than a thousand of these people in so called fringe groups. That is not representative of an entire state of 20 million people. And, those who lump a state into such corners while ignoring daily race crimes in New York are complete hypocrits. Maybe those fringe groups have grown. Now there are 950 people instead of 900 of them! Better contact CNN quick!!!!

    There are multiple organizations with agendas that were once considered fringe but have now become more mainstream and they include liberal causes.

    Which fringe group is now mainstream? I can think if Antifa, which is left-wing, but they are still fringe, and they have also been very quiet lately.

    Quiet doesn't mean inactive, silent farts are the stinkiest. The point is that these groups are people and if people are disenfranchised by mainstream they tend to gravitate toward others who think as they do. I believe it is what has caused the hardened political positions we have today. You form a gang to protect yourself from threats from other gangs.

    Sure, given a trigger they'll show up again, but they are still fringe and the mainstream do not approve of their behavior.

    I think the mainstream is harder to predict than that. We really don't know what said mainstream approves of till something happens to put ideas into conflict. Fringe groups are governed by seriously dedicated people but the body of supporters is people who don't hear any of their views voiced any place else. Frustrated people can be manipulated and used, we need to talk to each other but we won't till after the fire.

    There is no Antifa and there is no "fringe".

    There is what used to be the GOP but is now just the most visible part of the worldwide resurgence of race-based Fascism

    Pamphlets on doorsteps are just the tip of a very large iceberg. Your Titanic is sinking but the band plays on

    So says CNN and MSNBC. If there is less than a thousand white supremacists, that is nowhere near any tip of any iceberg except in propaganda machines minds.

    If there were some iceberg, there would be large fascists rallies, massive facebook groups instead of 10 or 20 people meeting at some bar talking white supremacist crap. More like chasing a needle in a haystack than some massive white supremacist conspiracy issue left wing mass media is trying to win votes by enlightening their fans with.

    There are such rallies. You have obviously never been to a Trump rally or overheard some of the conversations that go on there, conversations which the participants in make no secret of.

    From what source have you heard these conversations? Bits and pieces can be selectively picked out of the conversations of hundreds of thousands to form any narrative you want.

    Have you noticed how the standard leftist almost always has to have some sort of persecution complex and blame some invisible group of people for the persecution?

    It's almost like they are LARPing the civil rights movement.

    The depth of irony and/or gas lighting rendered in this quoted post^, might actually be legendary if it was not epically hypocritical.

    If all you have is personal nonsense, I guess that explains a lot.
