doesn't RP get that trump being president is totally worth it because he delegitimizes the presidency? what a moron.

i mean, there's a reason we decided to (mostly) contain all the politics discussion in one topic. this board is supposed to be a place where you don't get bombarded with real life political shit.

it kind of defeats the purpose when we can't talk about real life political shit in this topic though >_>

so the fact that some of your loudest voices do ignore shit to back up their theories isn't far fetched, the problem is everyone's doing it.

Like I disagree with certain parts of it but it was all based on research and tame opinions.

again, "the left tends to deny science" is hardly a "tame opinion." and like other people pointed out, just because stuff is "based on research" doesn't mean it's not bullshit.

lol, "everyone hates him now"? exaggerating much? tons of alt-right people have rushed to his defense. and just because people hate the memo doesn't necessarily mean they hate him. i watched the molyneux interview and while he's terrible on the mic, he doesn't seem like a bad dude. he's certainly not as big of an asshole as, say, milo.

i think "there weren't actually any nazis/white supremacists/white nationalists there!" is the best response, relatively. it's either a pathetic attempt at a defense or the worst cognitive dissonance imaginable, but it's still better than calling criticism of nazis "leftist crap." at least the former response shows the slightest hint of human decency.

Like, you've seen the Cantwell crying video right? HE at least got the message, at least in that moment, that his views are not welcome.

cantwell didn't get shit - he's a narcissistic asshole. he was only crying because he loves to play the "look how tough i have it as a martyr" role.
---

Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta

one thing that pisses me off about trump's comments on charlottesville is that "the alt-left came charging at the - as you say - alt-right."

JESUS CHRIST, PEOPLE FROM THE ALT-RIGHT WERE THERE. THIS ISN'T OPEN TO INTERPRETATION.

why is a man who constantly argues like a 3-year-old the president of the united states?

i also like how the alt-right is a well known movement that has existed for ages and "alt-left" is a bullshit term trump pulled out of his ass, yet he only adds a caveat to the term "alt-right." reminds me a lot of "some mexicans - i assume - are good people."

well, before muffin was at least pretending his trump support was compatible with his libertarian beliefs - he'd say stuff like "it's worth having trump as president because now people take the presidency less seriously!" now he's all "NOPE I DON'T CARE I JUST WANT TO TROLL LIBERALS."

First, it's important to note that most counterprotestors were peaceful (i.e. It's not nazis vs extremists on the left, it's nazis vs normal people that oppose nazis and also there are a few violent assholes showing up)

didn't know that, actually. that makes that stefan molyneux video i was talking about even worse - i didn't mention it before, but he spends most of the video going "HOW CAN YOU VIOLENTLY ATTACK NAZIS ARE YOU FUCKING R****DED," as if charlottesville was mostly violent asshole leftists bashing in on poor nazis. again, he spends ZERO time condemning the white supremacist who murdered someone.

regarding the muffin/cantwell connection - not only did muffin donate money to cantwell, he said cantwell's blog was "the closest thing he'd ever seen to his own DWMF blog" and he actually HUNG OUT with cantwell. in fairness to muffin, i think he doesn't care that much for cantwell anymore since he openly self-identified as a fascist, but back in his "anarchist" days the stuff he said was batshit crazy too (he said the elliot rodger killings were "liberalism's fault," for instance).

also, according to muffin cantwell is actually a pretty normal guy IRL and online he just pretends he's a total asshole to get views and clicks. that's not an excuse for anything but i guess it's nice to know he doesn't ACTUALLY have the most sickening opinions you can think of. he just PRETENDS he does!
