I almost should apologize for this thread, but just to explain...

Thus far it is all the same bashing or preaching on here. I admit to bashing Trump because I find him personally repulsive, but wondered about why the lack of any civil conversation.

I think that those who are on here, are a majority of extremist leaning to alt right. The alt right is apparent with the race, woman, and immigrant bashing.

They are extremes and that does not lead to much discussion.

I have started threads on Iraq, Syria, deficit, and a few others and made my OP as neutral as possible as to party.

They do not even get reads, or any posts except to discuss the past administration or Clinton.

Not much doubt that this TOTV is the home of extremism. There can never be discussions with extremist. I know for a fact that many of my links are responded to with a smart crack with no reading or even an attempt to understand another point of view.

I began this thread because I feel comfortable in saying that this is an extremist forum.....many from the Alt Right, and those who are extreme and on the fringe of alt right.

It is nothing but parroting the message of those groups, ie. all liberals, democrats, whatever the name of the day is are bad people.

I find it quite humorous when I read one poster who uses the term progressive a lot....progressives are normally thought of as extreme liberals......this poster cannot see that he is the extreme on the other side.

Oh, and my comment about The Villages sort of makes my point. I was saying that on this forum, there are no, or very few conservatives that are not extreme or all the way alt right.

But that does not represent The Villages population I never said, or implied that Trump won big here and even me in my posts and threads support much of what he might do....my problem is with HIM.....

But that is quite it.....conversation does not happen here. It is a board of extremism, much of it all the way to alt right. I am proud of being a conservative, but very saddened by the move to such extremes by folks.
