It's gotta be super fake.

Anonymous is conveniently "shutting them down in 24 hours for good", when GoDaddy said the same thing? Come on.

The whole "We have to let them speak".... while saying "We shouldn't protests what they're saying" doesn't ring any bells?

Apparently it's fine to speak Nazi views, but telling them to fuck off is suppression?

Seeing how I literally said:


Stand there and do nothing - no. Especially if somebody's become violent but no, I'm not saying you should become a doormat. Letting somebody speak without trying to shut them down isn't being "polite" or "doing nothing," it's just giving them rope. Counter if you want, protest if you want (though like I said earlier, this one was dumb to protest), that's fine.


No, it doesn't.
Because I said the opposite.

Are you still confused with why I say it was dumb to protest this one? That it was always bait, playing their rules, etc? From your reaction to not understanding what I meant when I said there was a normies guide, I'm assuming you have no idea what this was or how it formed. Is that correct? Because that explains a lot as to why you don't get why I say that.

Literally the only thing said here is "we should hear them out."

And it's followed by saying that it's to give them rope to hang themselves with. Everything else you said is a flat out lie.

You're suggesting that they were trying to make martyrs out of themselves?

Because honestly, I don't see a normal, well adjusted person going "You know, I thought those guys were assholes but after those other guys were mean to them maybe they have a point after all."

There is no "rope" for them to hang themselves with. You either know where your position is on Nazis, or you're too young to read. Their existence is their rope, and no one's hung them yet.


As for "hearing them out" we've already heard them. They came to the rally armed, looking to cause trouble. You can't say "They were baiting you" and say "You should hear them out" in the same breath. One implies that they're just being dicks, and the other implies they want an actual conversation.

Yes.
You should hear everyone out. You can then decide how much value what they have to say is and reinforce both what you support and what you oppose. It's how you make good arguments and learn.

Some probably but overall, nope. They legitimately went out to try to mingle and merge. They thought this would be a good thing.

Them being armed ties back to them knowing police isn't helpful and things will get violent. If they weren't armed, antifa would be. In the past, other right wing rallies believed cops and disarmed, antifa just stayed out of range and came with weapons. This isn't a good point if you know what other rallies from people less extreme have been like.

They were totally baiting antifa, yeah. They were being dicks. They were also wanting actual conversation with the people on the right who went. Remember that the event is called "Unite the Right."

Where'd I say that? Because I said it's terrifying that you'd other and dehumanize people? By all means, I'm open to hearing why you'd become the monster you hate. As for chants like blood and soil, they don't scare me as much as surprise how blatant they're being.


As for what I think neo Nazis are... that can be a while. I don't mind getting into what I've figured out (there's multiple types and some hate each other) but it'd probably be something for tomorrow.

If they're just talking, why would things get violent? Almost like they were itching for a fight. If they wren't armed and anifta was... well wouldn't that make them look so much better? It's strange though, I don't recall a majority of BLM being armed.

If I'm a monster for being opposed to genocide, then *shrug* I guess I'm a monster? I mean I haven't tried to kill anyone, or suggested a group of people needs to die because they were born different, but I suppose completely rejecting those ideas and the people who share them puts me on their level.

Their chants don't scare you? Yeah, I suppose you're not the target demographic. Like I said, it's not your problem so naturally you're fine with it.

I asked this dude at work what he thought of those rallies in Virginia and he asked me if I knew what really happened and showed me a video of some girl who said that Antifa was all the aggressors and were attacking the Right to Unite and that Soros paid them to be there. Etc.

And, I was like, well even if so I mean there was Nazis marching in formation and KKK stuff there and such... and he was like well they have a right to be there if they wish as long as they do it peacefully though I don't agree with their groups. That it wasn't a white supremacy march but a Robert E Lee statue removal protest march.

*shrug* He is a republocrat.


It is important to note that many where I work are democrats solely because unions generally support democrats but they all tend to vote Republican due to Republican economic policies.

Wang, your first instinct when seeing a video of a car hitting people is to complain about the guy who just witnessed it assuming his identity. Even if he somehow ended up being wrong, your search for the devil in the details completely ignores any allowance for basic empathy.

I mean, I don't wanna say this, but between Wang ALWAYS defending these people and refusing to ever condemn them or even really say they did wrong, it just looks bad. Like, his outrage over "Stop assuming the driver's political views!" while showing pretty much zero reaction to the actual event of running people down with a car in itself is just a bad, bad look. While I don't necessarily think he's straight up a white supremacist or anything, between his GGism and his staunch defense of hate speech, it really feels like there's atleast SOME hate, there, for something. I mean, one of his first reactions to the car thing was "These people were blocking the street." And a repeated sentiment has been "It's wrong to counter-protest these white supremacists." It's just... Weird.

He's cool outside of Politics topics though, so I dunno

yeah, i don't like how wang ONLY seems to care super much about "corrections" and distinguishing between the finer details when it comes to gamergate/the alt-right/white nationalists/etc. when there's tons of people making factual errors on a gazillion different topics in this topic series (myself included, of course). to name just one example, at one point there were a lot of people accusing jill stein of being anti-vaxx, when she's not one and never, ever claimed to be one. where was his outrage over that?

correcting people on the difference between nazism and white nationalism is fine in itself - getting the facts straight is good. but it does get annoying when wang's corrections are so limited to one subject matter, and that he's so obsessive about correcting people about this one subject matter.

that said, impeachment is a purely political process, not a legal one, so anything that tanks his approval any more than it already is increases the probability that people will turn on him. if people feel like they can't walk down his path anymore due to nazis/Russia/whatever and there's an impeachment avenue open, it's fair game. won't happen til 2018 unless Mueller finishes early though.
