Dr. Phil Blames ‘Fringe’ Tyrants For Dividing The Country
American Entertainment News ^ | 9.2.23 | Jack Crane

Posted on 09/03/2023 11:42:45 AM PDT by Boomer

Dr. Phil claimed that extremist factions within U.S. politics are responsible for dividing the nation rather than the conventional “Left versus Right” conflict.

During a featured appearance on Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) “Verdict” podcast, McGraw illuminated certain areas that could lead to individuals being “canceled” by society.

“Whether you’re talking about science, history, biology, you pick it,” he began. “What’s happening right now, in my opinion, is the narrative in America is being hijacked.

“And it’s being hijacked by the fringe. It’s not even, it’s not like the Left versus the Right,” he explained. “It’s the fringe. And I call it the tyranny of the fringe.”

What used to be labeled ‘fringe’ has become an overstaffed, armed battleship, one with several different launching systems.

“It’s the fringe. And I call it the tyranny of the fringe.”

How would “the fringe” get the power to exercise this tyranny, unless they were the ones in charge, or were given license by those in charge?

I’ve seen Dr. Phil encourage sex confusion like it’s a healthy thing. That’s pretty fringe.

It’s not even, it’s not like the Left versus the Right,” he explained.

It's a symptom of fascism. Look at the tyrant that's in the WH right now and then look behind him.

We’re NOT talking civil war Dr. Phil ... no one wants or needs a civil war. What rational people want is countries both sides can live in WITHOUT the constant struggle.

Why should we spend the next ten years debating whether or not it’s OK for state paid ‘teachers’ to encourage the sexual mutilation and sterilization of children? What they call ‘affirmation’? Why not have one country were children over the age of 5 can make the decision to be sterilized? And one country where those decisions can only be made after they turn 18? Why fight? Both sides can have their own countries.

One side can have illegals - millions of them. The other side can build a wall. One side can have drug addicts pooping on the streets - the other side won’t. One side can bow to criminals - the other side won’t.

What Doctor Phil doesn’t get is we don’t want to spend our lives fighting with democrats. They don’t want to spend their lives fighting with us. Get a divorce and liberals can confiscate ALL guns before the ink is dry on the agreement. Teachers can spend all day talking about their sexual kinks... maybe even groom a few kids. We’ll teach the basics.

It’s not personal. They can have it all and we can have it all.

Both sides will be happier and more productive. For example - reparation? Easy. Since almost all the ultra wealthy people are white liberal ‘elites’ they’ll have plenty of money to share with people with grievances - the angry pets they’ve nourished for years to keep wounds open and salted. Black men and their families who just want to be Americans will go with us. As will most Hispanics... who also share our values. Asians who want schools fair and sane will also move toward us.

Two countries - a happy outcome for both sides Dr. Phil. The play by Jean Paul Sartre - his ‘No Exit’ explains the mess we’re in now. The mess we can get out of... Both sides need to get out and get on with life.

Also, he is best friend of pervert Ron White. Ron is funny as all get out when he keeps it clean, but mostly he’s disgusting.

Okay Philomena, show us one issue on which the fringe on the right is cancelling people. ONE.

And failure to buy a particular brand of beer doesn’t count.

“And it’s being hijacked by the fringe. It’s not even, it’s not like the Left versus the Right,” he explained. “It’s the fringe. And I call it the tyranny of the fringe.”

So how exactly does he think the "fringe" got this control?

This fringe seem to be everywhere Dr. Phil, In our schools, in our courts, in our government, in our industries, in our entertainment industry, in our military, even in our churches now, but primarily our Christian churches & perhaps some Jewish synagogues, but I don't really know them to be honest, Dr. Phil.

So, where is the "fringe" coming from, and how have they captured the power to change society?

You are saying a partial truth, but apparently you are too afraid to identify who this "fringe" really is Dr. Phil.

The extremists on either end of the political conservative /liberal spectrum do not have control. Though the left extremists most certainly have more say than do the right extremists.

By "fringe" do you mean LGBTQXYZ whatever? Who gave them control, if that is who you are identifying without identifying who the "fringe" actually is?

Until you muster up the courage to identify the "fringe", you are saying nothing. But you know who the "fringe" is, but are too afraid to say it out loud, because you know they will come at you with the full force government has to offer.

oops, I said it out loud Dr. Phil.

The Weather Underground never went away, they just changed their tactics. And now they are on the verge of achieving their dream, and the result will be the extermination of millions of Americans.

It’s the cultural marxism pushed by Obama that tore the American fabric giving rise to the fringe groups that Obama empowered.

It was just another tool to be used by the death to America crowd.

Who are the tyrants on the right; those that support the constitution or those that believe there was a stolen election or maybe those that protested at the “People’s House” and thrown in jail without due process. How about no less than 91 charges against a former POTUS for bull shit. Gasbag Phil should get his facts straight and stop trying to placate the Biden crime family .
