I came in here and said, "i don't care who commits fake hate crimes, whoever does it sucks." Im not sure what could possibly be so controversial about that comment. I never said that committing a fake hate crime was worse than a real one. When someone makes a post about rape, am I supposed to say "well, murder is worse"? Can't I just say "yeah, rape is heinous and rapists suck"? I think you need to chill out. Seems like you're taking your frustrations of other ppl out on me.
Lol, I'm perfectly chill. I cant help it if expressing my opinion and asking questions makes you feel lectured. Defensive much? Did I touch a nerve?
I'm just trying to point out how conservatives are using this issue to avoid having to discuss the real hate crimes. You say you can be angry about both, but your first post said nothing about the real hate crimes. You're focused on the fake hate crimes instead of the real ones, which is exactly the point of bringing them up in the first place.
And your metaphor of hate crimes equaling murder and fake ones equaling rape is absurd. It's more like murder and shoplifting.

I'm actually starting to think more of the "hate crimes" are hoaxes then we think. Really I haven't heard of that many hate crimes. Problem is the left exaggerates so much about everything it's hard to take them seriously anymore. I talk with my former leftist freinds and we all agree, it's probably an misperception. The extreme political leftist progressives claim everything is hate. There was a story of someone drawing in chalk on a sidewalk on a college campus "Make American Great Again" "MAGA", and the left declared it a hate crime of intolerance because they perceived it to be racist. Only in the completely subverted mindset of a crazy leftist would making your own country great be racist, but that's what we are dealing with these days. These people are losers, who are stuck in a victim state. The DNC will never rise anyone above victim status, because that's their base, otherwise what would there be to fight for. They don't want equality. It's a scam, and they will always keep you down. Rise up yourselves! Take charge of your lives instead of blaming others. Blame yourselves for not achieving what you could. That's what I did.
Are there racists? Yes, and there will always be. It's human nature and tribalism to stay connected to your own kind.
Are there hate crimes? Yes, I'm not saying there are not. I also haven't posted any of the hate crimes against Trump supporters by weirdo leftists either. There are many!
This thread is about people faking hate crimes, and why someone would feel the need to do so.
The strength of the KKK is irrelevant. The fact is that they, and every other racist organization in this country, likes the same candidate you do. You guys get so triggered when liberals call Trump racist, but you don't give a damn that the racists think he's racist. They're very selective of who they support, and they think Trump's their man.
Oh, you haven't heard of that many hate crimes? Because I'm sure you were looking out for them. I guess it's hard to be in touch with reality when you listen to Alex Jones, though. Here's some help.
Quote:In the 10 days after Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential election, the country experienced a surge in hate crime, according to a study by the Southern Poverty Law Center. The prominent U.S. civil rights group released a report Tuesday identifying 867 incidents of harassment and intimidation between November 9 and November 18. Many of those incidents involved harassers invoking Trump's name, making it clear that the outbreak of hate was primarily due to his success in the election.

"Racists are doing horrible shit in the name of our candidate, but I'm too outraged about the tiny percentage of fake hate crimes to care! Let's rage at those liberals instead of worrying that outspoken racists committing horrendous acts agree with us!"
