On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism. Bellingcat is an MI6/CIA cut out. Clyburn Truther.
This baffles me as a verdict. It's clearly not supporting nazis, he literally describes them as "the least cute thing he could think of".
This is the difference between being a subject and being a citizen.
this thread:
People conveniently ignoring the part where the guy says gas the Jews 23 times and/or saying "it's just a joke! Genocide is funny!" and making it all about the dog. ..And non-whites.
He shouldn't have been an idiot then and done daft controversial stuff to try and become internet famous.
“Do not lose time on daily trivialities. Do not dwell on petty detail. For all of these things melt away and drift apart within the obscure traffic of time. Live well and live broadly. You are alive and living now. Now is the envy of all of the dead.” ~ Emily3, World of Tomorrow
Words to live by.
It's possible to hold the view that this guy is a dead set wanker and to also defend the principle of free speech.
Free speech is not freedom from consequence of course, but those consequences should be ridicule, lampooning as a racist, boycotts, etc, whatever. Not jail time.
Or as Voltaire (is alleged) to have said: I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
There's an excellent Hitchen's video that is worth watching.

Not if its a group of people (rather than an individual) clearly said on a video for comedic purposes.
Not really, but unless someone made it their goal to run around in as many theaters as they could to shout "fire", I don't think it should carry a legal penalty. Just would involve you getting thrown out and blacklisted from the cinema/theater for causing a nuisance.Are you also for shouting fire in crowded theaters?
Totally incomparable.
This is the slippery slope of hate speech laws. I feel as if comedians of any kind need to watch themselves if operating in the UK.
The joke was in very shitty taste IMO, but it was still a joke.
