Hear Arnold Schwarzenegger's prediction about Trump

[@Nilessterner]

I was a young Kid during his governorship. My family is staunchly liberal and my parents never voted for him. We still idolized him in our home. He represented that we can disagree on political matters without loosing sight of each others best qualities. After he left office he only continued to advocate for important issues and lead the way in building a better world. Arnold will always be an role model for me, the model of what a man should be. Strong, intelligent, and filled with love.

Arnold has seen what few people get to see in person. As a young boy, I entered a movie theater in post WW2 Scotland. The newsreel featured the liberation of a concentration camp. I was not prepared for such horrors, and it has haunted me for life. Much later my refusal to attend a dinner, led to a virtual collapse of my family, over a neo-Nazi, in the bride's close family. I remember the bomb shelters and the craters well. I remember that newsreel also. I do not regret my decision or my exile because free will gives me the absolute right to "abstain" and absent myself from their presence, and they from mine.. Bravo Arnold for saying what needs to Never Be Forgotten.

[@GaryY]

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” ― Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom

[@stonecoldhitman7662]

A beautiful quote from a good man.

[@martymcfly1776]

It's a philosophical argument - the idea that children are born innocent and the world corrupts them. I don't believe that. I believe that children don't naturally know the difference between right and wrong. They need to be taught a sense of right and wrong, keeping in mind that those that are teaching them may have very different ideas of right and wrong than what you or I might hold.

@Don Juan When people underestimate the dangers of evil whether it’s nuclear weapons proliferation or racism, atrocities are committed.

There is Hate groups but a very small amount of just punks. CNN is trying to use there media to create confusion and chaos of division from the real problems in America. Because the real Hate is installed on all the hearts yellow, black, white and green. The crime rate is huge and it has nothing to do with racism is just Hate for humanity as the hearts of all Americans grow colder. So don't listen to bull crap. Just look around u and see the Hate that is around by all races. It was nothing to do with right wing or blue. Is bull shit. Everyone is committing Hate all around u. This has nothing to do with race all this are talking is nothing but bull because the anger in people is about the way they live so poor and broke that it makes people unstable and snap with mental health. Poverty is causing huge Hate, crime and evil. So them talking about Germany ect.. that happened centuries ago and that will never happen again. Look at what's happening in Ukraine white people are killing white people that's Hate, and they are doing it through lies about nazis when none of that was ever true. So please stop saying racism because racism is installed in all the hearts of every race, black, green and yellow, white have become races against thy neighbo, but that is called evil but no one actually calls it racism all because is and Indian man from India calling a black man a NG just because his skin is dark to. No one says nothing but yet Indian people from India do not like black people and they openly admitted but no one is talking about that or how Chinese say the same.

[@veganath]

The same for my family, of course judging people based on race is absurd as skin pigmentation doesn't inherently inform behaviour. As for religions, they are a set of beliefs about reality(mostly unsupported by evidence) that inform behaviour and some sadly are the impetus for adherents to cause others to suffer unnecessarily, in that way religion should NOT be exempt from harsh criticism for the bad ideas that are the impetus for adherents to cause others to suffer unnecessarily for example lslam, chri5tianity,...etc. I do not hate adherents seeing them rather as victims of an absurd & dangerous mind virus who need help.

You cant look at you and the people as evil or bad. So the government must be evil. Jesus is coming to save us. Its all reinforcement for that kind of deep seated belief. That belief imbedded in our culture. In Hollywood. In war movies in hero movies. In religions beliefs. Trump represented that icon . He was different. He said what the people wanted to hear . It all fits in that belief of evil verses good. Of all that ive said its mostly this concept that engrained into our culture.

I agree with you, and I think Arnold is surprisingly and refreshingly insightful when he talks about these things. That said, I WAS disappointed by this interview...I feel like he came up short. When Dana pushed him on real solutions or alternatives or even "how did we get here" questions, he hemmed and hawed. He mentioned FOX, but he didn't want to go the natural step and address the role that HIS party and that "news" station have played in creating the hatred "between men and women, black and white..." In the end, other than drawing the very apt comparison of the right wing hate movements in the US and the Nazis of Austria and Germany 80 years ago, he didn't say anything concrete and shied away from addressing the most important issue: how did it come to this in the US?

Being a European with parents who were children during the WWll, I made that connection when tr*** first appeared on the (political) stage. I didn't know that it would come to the attack on the Capitol, though. AS talks about the reasons why, without getting into it, and says it has nothing to do with tr***. Then he could also maintain that the rise of the WWll nazi era had nothing to do with Hitler. Hitler and tr*** legalized the hatred and anti-semitism and racism. They may not have been the cause.

Joy to the world! Joy to you and me! Thanks Arnold!

[@dwaneasley9119]

I have bigger respect for Arnold. To open up about his dad and realizing that ppl in his own party are wrong and having the guts to admit it. Especially about the whole fox news situation and how he said that they INTENTIONALLY lied over and over again. I applaud 👏 him.

[@bngr_bngr]

Arnold’s father being a Nazi is not something new. Arnold is minimizing his fathers role in Nazi Germany.

[@8ofwands300]

Truly I respect this man. I never did before. I guess I saw him as a political pretender using the Kennedy connection and his superstardom to force a path to high office. But him stepping up in these dire times and being a spokesperson for sanity and reason is EVERYTHING. I've changed my opinion about him entirely.

[@spectreskeptic3493]

In this interview Arnold is exhorting the values of civil discourse and a genuine respect for history, even when it's painful and ugly. You don't have to be a perfect human, nobody is, you just need to have some humility and a persistent desire to forgive. Hate, anger, and fear may prevail in the short term, but over a long enough timeline, love always wins. It's just that, there really doesn’t (shouldn’t) have to be so much loss in the meantime. Thanks Arnold. "My father [a Nazi] and so many other millions of men were sucked into a hate system through lies and deceits, and so we have seen where that leads. I've seen first hand how broken those men were. The kind of atrocities that happened and how many millions of people had to die, and then they ended up losers. You know the Confederacy?...losers. All of this [Hate] just doesn't work. Let's just get along...love is more powerful than hate" - *Arnold Schwarzenegger*

Truth? Arnold is full of sh*t. 1 Antisemitism is not on the rise. The labeling every criticism of any Jewish person is NOT antisemitism. You can criticize Epstein but if you criticize Soros suddenly you are an anti semite. Even KZbin and Twitter was removing Soros criticism labeling as antisemitism. 2. Hitler was NOT PART Austrian, but 100% Austrian both mother and father. Alos Arnold defend the Ukrainian regime that is openly nazi and sacrifice regular Ukrainian people in a war that was created by western powers. I find his PC propganda disgusting.

Body-Mind-Spirit for pampered Karens and "atheists" inventing new dogma, LOL.
