Volunteers set up an “empathy” tent at dueling pro- and anti-Trump protests on Saturday in Sacramento as part of an effort to reduce violent clashes between the two sides. The Sacramento Bee reported that as police worked to keep about 150 pro-Trump demonstrators and a smaller group of anti-Trump protesters from coming to blows, peace activists used an “empathy tent” to defuse tensions:

And just how much has tension been “defused” since the rise of these idiotic psycobabbling bliss ninnies? It hasn’t been defused at all, it’s gotten worse.

Remember, there is a large Black Block contingent in Sacramento and environs.

This is a sign they have surrendered. They have left the field.

They have raised empathy from a personality trait to a virtue, though an excess of empathy results in the smothering mother (nanny state when applied to politics) and constant smoothing over of issues instead of dealing with the root cause like excessive empathy for the poor backward Muslims to the point the EU punishes those who point out Islam’s true rape culture more than Islamic terrorists because its loving Mommies know they just need more love to be healed of their hate, it really is our fault they kill us with their tantrums, we didn’t love them enough, let’s show even more love to heal them.

I suggest the pro-Trumpers establish an “enmity tent” in response to the anti-Trumpers “empathy tent.”

What a bunch of high school silliness.

The Left is unhinged and confused because the Right is now doing their own protests/marches. The Left thinks they’re the only one allowed to do that...
