Author Dinesh D'Souza: "Antifa are closest thing to brown shirted Nazis"

[stomination]

Spoiler alert: Humans, in general, are violent.

Fixed that for you.

[Dmitro]

I am all for listening but fox news is all about bullshit. There is zero point in reading the crap they print. Simple as that.

I dont think so, there are really good articles at fox of conservative standpoint. Unless you believe all right wing views are bullshit, its worth reading from time to time.

[Shadowmelded]

Are you now arguing that the national german SOCIALIST party wasn't socialist?

The first group the Nazi's went after after gaining power were the SDP and KDP. The Nazis just used socialist rhetoric to win votes.

[Theinquisition]

That's highly debatable...actually no isn't CNN has proven to be less credible.

I couldn't help but laugh, really.

I didn't know that breaking peoples ribs with baseball bats, throwing IED's, and stabbing service animals is mildly violent.

[Orbitus]

Blind leading the blind comes to mind when I see people defending CNN. It's quite sad. And hilarious.

Not really. CNN's track record is a billion times better than Fox News. Is it the best source? Nope, but its fucking better than ANYTHING right wing.

[Theinquisition]

Is this before or after you put your mask and armour on and advocate shooting antifa to 'help clean up the gene pool'?

You're a real hero pal, dont let anyone tell you otherwise.

thanks

I wouldn't shed any tears if ANTIFA members were given the same violence they are committing against others, but I don't advocate or support those acts of violence.

I mean, maybe you are okay with old men and women being beaten and maced, but I don't and I will protect people threatened with that violence when I can.

You still haven't backed up your claim with any form of a source.

[purebalance]

I'm a simple man.

I see a Fox News link, I ignore it.

I mean hell CNN is just as bad now and yet....

Oh please. Their headlines speak for themselves on their inherent bias now. Trump says something like "That man is lying" and they put "Trump attacks man." Then if someone says "Trump is a liar" they put "Man takes courageous stand against Trump". Sorry, but when something is obvious like that, you're not credible.

Antifa wear black and red. So calling them brown shirts doesn't even make sense.

Have you ever heard of idioms?

Stop being so bloody literal.

[Theinquisition]

Are you aware that official police policy in the USA is to infiltrate protest groups and to commit acts of violence, just to make the group look bad?

(more examples:

Pretty sure that a lot of these examples of violence you used were done by moles. But hey, I support you if you want the same violence to happen to the police as the violence they dish out.

Doubtful, seeing as the groups watch the acts taking place and actively try to obstruct law enforcement in locating and arresting those committing the crimes.

It's all good through, individual journalists that go to these events and record them are using the information to identify those people and bring them to justice ala Eric Clanton.

Per the article:

The meaning of fascism is "collective state power" sounds more like what the left stands for, D'Souza concluded.

He's conveniently leaving out the total embrace of nationalism as a core concept of fascism. I wonder which "side" that sounds more like...

Also pretty hilarious to say a bunch of dumbass anarchists are in favor of big central government. Guy clearly doesn't know what he's talking about either.

All the historical fascists had uniforms that they would wear on the job, they didn't wear them 24/7.

Italy, Spain Germany all the fascists had uniforms, US too.



Hitler didn't think much of the American Bund.

The uniform means that they are at least para-military and have a close association to the military, the military being the protector of the nation.

And there's the racism where if you're not in their group you're inferior.

Sure they have bias, everyone has a bias. That doesn't mean that they are wrong. We KNOW that Fox News has reported false things, and they only issue retractions when it is legally required. Every other news source issue retractions when they find out false information and even firings happen. When Fox News does it, they get rewarded. Look at Sean Hannity, he should be blackballed from journalism for the Seth Rich story alone, and yet, Fox News isn't doing anything about him because he is literally their only breadwinner anymore. Fox News has ZERO integrity. Something you cannot say with a straight face about CNN.

No? What's an idiom?

[Deleted]

Fox News really is bullshit

[Orbitus]

Did I just read this? What are you smoking pal...it must be amazing.

Nothing. That's the point, I have a working brain and not ignorant enough to believe that CNN is anywhere near as bad as Fox News.

[Illana]

Like I said, if you have any evidence of her striking people, or the man in custody attacking others... then feel free to provide it. You are doing the EXACT same thing as antifa defenders do. Can't we then say the exact same shit you've been saying to defend the use of political violence by antifa? After all, those videos could be edited, and we don't know what happened before them...

I provided evidence of Trump supporters and the alt right utilizing political violence. Why do you continue to rationalize and justify such actions.

Repeat after me:

Political violence is unacceptable. Period.

looks like you you glitched somewhere and can only repeat one thing =/ guess no point to continue conversation against something that's malfunctioning

[Machismo]

looks like you you glitched somewhere and can only repeat one thing =/ guess no point to continue conversation against something that's malfunctioning

Then why did you comment?

You literally tried to justify their actions, and I pointed it out. You did the EXACT same thing as guys like Elba, who defend antifa. They try and justify their actions, by implying they were somehow required, and try to shift the blame to others. Congrats, you are just like them. Enjoy that hypocrisy.

I'm still waiting for you to show that CNN is "That's highly debatable...actually no isn't CNN has proven to be less credible."

It looks like you are full of shit, nobody is surprised.
