the alt-right

Cornel West (full disclosure: I think he is kind of nuts) said the same thing re: himself and the non-violent clergy he was there with

*Reads this dreck in a grown-up tone of voice*

regardless of this silly statement, I do think there's a legit legal argument to be made (and the ACLU would appear to agree on this point) that armed, marching groups chanting hateful rhetoric is an explicit threat of violence that should not be protected by the 1st Amendment.

I read all your posts in the voice of a 3 yo tbh

Chomsky manages to sound even worse than you - which is saying something.

chomsky is bad now

You guys don't really need to argue with the resident tankie that much

On this occasion, yeah. I expect better from him, but its perhaps the one occasion where you feel there is a thing to the 'ivory tower' crit - too far away from the immediate dangers.

what's a tankie

Why should any private citizen initiate violence with a bunch of armed maniacs?

Organise ppl.

apologist for communist violence particularly stalin/mao xxp

tankie = stalinist basically

iirc it originated in britain and was a pejorative term for hardline cpgb members who supported the russian invasions (tanks rolling in hence the name) of hungary and czechoslovakia

wait, so has bethune finally come back to us then?

iirc Silby got to know some of my mannerisms through the Castro thread

Its pretty desperate I just want Nazis dead. Although Stalin, by killing them in the end, would do a far better job than many of you.

surprised you aren't disappointed in Stalin for not pre-emptively invading Nazi Germany instead of being a totally deluded pussy and then getting caught flatfooted when they started to slaughter millions of his citizens

'in the end'

you would just go on a hoo-hah about the 1st amendment as they kill us.

is this larry?

Is this?

brb going on a hoo-hah

I raised the First Amendment question in the free speech thread and Beria, Stalin, Zinoniev, et. al were not consulted.

Scent of a truman xp

is this larry?

it's julio

in that krang t nelson tweet above, btw, millennial matt wasn't sent scarpering by violence and guns but because someone brought a camera and documented the rally on the internet

That person could go to another place, rebuild and organise with others.

And why wouldn't many learn from this and put masks in future?

Has anyone itt ever taken part in an act of political violence

i voted lib dem once

Damn, step back

No. It doesn't matter either way.

Just checking

But now that Stevie has given away my not so secret actual name (lol) I could be lying.

Ah don't worry I'd say we all believe you tbh

welp, here we go

http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Federal-permit-approved-for-far-right-rally-in-11953450.php

I've seen plans for a counter-rally at the downtown civic center but idk that seems like weak sauce to me. these people should be surrounded and shouted down by 10s of thousands just like in Boston.

you should go then!

I gave it a lot of thought, but I had already signed up to do a phone bank for Swing Left that afternoon, and I don't think my wife wants to take the kids to an event where there could be potential violence. I understand that my temple is going to be involved with the counter-protests at least.

From the sound of it there are a lot of people going to Crissy Field. There were ~150 people just at the security training hosted by SURJ last night.

Why in the world was the 'progressive'/leftist reaction to the Charlottesville violence the EXACT SAME THING they admonish conservatives for -- a sneering "talk to the white people in your life and chastise them about white terrorism"?? -- this is precisely how ppl like, say, Milo Yiannopolis react to islamic terrorism. it's completely idiotic.

it's also a kind of noblesse oblige on behalf of fake white progressives - 'we would never, ever expect you all to take the high road when it comes to dealing with terrorists within your own identity clique... but we will' fucking phony and disgusting.
