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.

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

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.

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.
― sleepingbag, Thursday, 24 August 2017 03:37 (seven years ago) link
I actually haven't heard that particular reaction anywhere; just some people pointing out the hypocrisy there, "imagine people actually saying this...?"
the thing that I wish got acknowledged more in all these idiot debates about whether or not the "Antifa" are "just as bad" or somewhat as bad or whatever is the hypothetical, "what if it was an ISIS rally?" ISIS shows up on the streets, armed to the teeth, chanting their ISIS slogans, and literally murders someone. now imagine there are counter-protestors, some of whom *do* start shit a bit prematurely, but ultimately outnumber and cause the ISIS folk to retreat. doesn't every single one of those people get hailed as an American hero, first and foremost by the President himself?
― frogbs, Thursday, 24 August 2017 03:52 (seven years ago) link
that's a really strange way to characterize it. "chastise" them about white terrorism? "dealing with terrorists within your own identity clique"? are you saying a common reaction was for people on the left to advise everyone to tell their neo-nazi friends to fuck off? and that's the same as Milo fucking Milo talking about islamic terrorism? what? i guess i'm just like milo then, but yeah if you have a friend that's a neo-nazi you should probably tell them to fuck off and never talk to them again. sounds good to me. there's no high road there, there's just a big wide road and the being friends with a neo-nazi road.
does milo advise people to chastise the terrorists in their life? i only hate read him once but i guess i wouldn't put it past him.

NO ONE has a friend who's a neo nazi. these are several hundred or maybe thousand people in a country of hundreds of millions, probably about the same % as muslims who are terrorists. do you feel similarly compelled to remind all muslims to talk to their terrorist friends and tell them it's not cool?
