Has partisan hatred made us blind to real domestic terrorism risks?

[SolitarySolace]

The FBI just foiled an intricate White House drone and sniper plot targeting thousands of citizens. If political hatred has reached a point where people online are actively defending or downplaying a mass-casualty terror attempt, does that prove partisan tribalism has completely broken our society?

Left wingers are insane. Was in London 2 years ago with the wife seeing the sites. We'd gone into McDonald's, there was a pro Palestine protest outside going on. In McDonald's there were some left wingers still with their Palestine flags and lgbtq flags. They were very upset and one had a busted nose and the other two black eyes. The muslims in the protest had sent them packing and they were crying because they didn't understand why. Basically they group everyone whos non-white non Christian non Hetrosexual into the same multiethnic anti Conservative alliance but life's not like that and Muslims are more Conservative than any white Republican. But they can't be told, best to say nothing

I do believe that political division is so severe in the US that both sides can't even agree on basics. It's become a dangerous reality where a single story can be told completely differently depending upon your stated political allegiance. It also doesn't help that Trump has become such a divisive figure, even on a global scale. People just pick a side and often facts are secondary, if acknowledged at all. We see this reality with many issues.

basics! can't agree what is called man he etc. can't agree what is good or bad. whatever trump does is fascist so they opposed.

It is all the hate speech from liberals that are causing this. There are so many low IQ , suggestable morons out there that if they keep hearing Trump is a Nazi eventually you will find somebody who will try and kill him.

We're at the time in US society where the left will root for the terrorists.

[strateguy632]

not just downplaying attempt. siding with arab terrorists who actually act trying to kill.

Yes, give them a chance to leave the country before internment.
