I won't even be coy about it.
No, the protestors did absolutely nothing whatsoever to in any way justify, provoke, or cause this attack. Nothing.
All you're doing is blaming the victims, and being an apologist for an overt neo-Nazi terrorist. That's explicitly what you're doing, here.
What part of that means they should be rammed into with a car?That's a throw away line of logic used by those who are unable to justify the behavior of "their side" and want to pretend they're victims. They're not victims. They showed up to the rally with mace, bats and shields. Both sides.
Yes. There are victims. Obviously. And those victims are the counter-protestors, who suffered a terrorist attack by a neo-Nazi.
And now you're making shit up. Nobody's been allowed to assault anyone. And that violent behavior you're decrying isn't "the left's". And that's a ridiculous false equivalence, because nobody is blaming all Republicans for the racist shitbags in Charlottesville this weekend. We're blaming those shitbags. If you wanted to blame Antifa for violent actions by Antifa, rather than everyone to the left of you, maybe you'd have a discussion worth having, but that wouldn't feed the sense of persecution you want to manufacture, so you don't. You make stuff up and prejudicially slander wide groups of people for things they did not do.But your group has been doing this for years. Look at Ferguson. Look at Trump's inauguration. You want to pretend that the left's violent behavior is unrelated to this, because it allows you to pretend it doesn't exists, and continues the status quo of letting leftist shitheads assault anyone they arbitrarily call a "fascist." This topic is filled with mouth breathers all too eager at the idea of punching someone they disagree with.
Straight-up victim blaming. The only person responsible for Heyer's death is the shithead neo-Nazi terrorist who slammed his car into her. Nobody else. Nothing justified his act, he was not provoked, he was a racist violent shithead terrorist looking for a victim.You all laughed at the stupid skin heads who showed up to Gettysburg a few weeks ago looking for a fight. Well, this time the leftist showed up ready to fight and some poor girl died for it.
You're doing everything you can to try and shift the blame off the actual neo-Nazi terrorist and onto his victims. And you think you're in any way justified? You wonder why people think you're allying yourself with Nazis? This is why. Right here.
As your response was "see see, there was totally a Nazi there! How dare you say there wasn't any!!!!!!!!" for real. Don't play dumb, it is beneath you.
"NO U"I don't really want to entertain this derail, but I'll note that the source you cited on gay conversion therapy completely worked against your argument on this point. It proved your claim to be ridiculous on its face, and that it's in no way comparable to that tweet you referenced. If you'd bothered to read it yourself.
Really? As a Mod shouldn't you be doing more than shitposting?
Was that what I said, or is that what you wanted me to say?
My point, just to reiterate, I know the circle jerk is strong, is that to treat the group as though it is all the same is the very 'oppression' that many of you are mocking them for feeling.
At their heart I too find them repugnant, but not anymore than the rather similar Black Supremacist and Muslim groups. To me it all comes down to a fairness and internal consistency. If you are this outraged over white people wanting these things then where is your outrage over them? For all of the people calling other apologists and Nazi's in disguise I haven't seen any "Hitler did nothing wrong". All I have seen is people pointing out how shitty the logic is to be outraged over this, but not at others doing similar things.
Once again, that isn't what I said. At this point though I think it is a lost cause because I don't know how to break it down further.
I am not standing arm in arm with anyone. If anything the fact that you view it that way shows much more of your outlook than mine.
Much less "they aren't the bad ones" and much more "They tend to not want genocide of anyone not white, so just maybe you should stop saying that they do, since you know it feeds into that whole 'victim complex' thing that you like to mock".
It is almost as though groups change over time. Like how the Democrats used to the slave owners, but now it is the Republicans who are the real racists, right?
So no Self Awareness for you today? Pity.
Gay groups amongst Progressives shouldn't want to unite with Muslim's either (especially of the Fundamentalist variety) but that hasn't stopped them from trying.
You've done nothing but apologising the behaviour of the Nazi scum, and now you're even excusing the shitstain terrorist that murdered an innocent woman and sent 19 others to hospital. You don't oppose the Nazi scum, you enable them, you excuse their action, you support them.
You are no better than they are, you are a pathetic nazi apologist. You sicken me.
You've been excusing away a terrorist every single post you've made.
You know who also does it?
These guys.
Every single time you engage in a "whataboutism" with White Nazi Terrorism against other Americans, remember... those Islamists in the picture there? THey do they exact same thing when ISIS terrorist drive a truck through a crowd of people. In fact, change a few words and add "Israel's occupation of Palestine" to the post I just quoted, what you wrote would be _exactly_ what Islamists say to explain away jihidists attacks.
So just look at yourself in the mirror today. You have a kindred in the type of guy who carries a sign saying "Shariah will dominate the world".
I'm still mystified that so many people on here are trying to blame the victims for a racist asshole choosing to drive his car into a crowd of people. I mean, I knew people were ignorant assholes, but I had no idea that there were this many ignorant assholes on this site. So, to quote Spaceballs:
Keep firing, Assholes.
So are most of the islamic terrorists, and that's for a reason: You don't get an older more sensible person that already has his own rationale for this world to attack random people and throw their lives away.
And while they're all (both this shitbag and the ISIS shitbag) are despicable humans whos action can never be justified, they are in a sense also victims. Victims of the brainwashing of guys who are delighted by these attacks but would never commit them themselves.
From now on, I'm just going to refer to them as ISIS sympathizers, just to make the analogy automatic.
