Pittsburgh Lambic posted:nope Trump rode to the presidency on a campaign of racial fear and continually winked at internet Nazi subculture. The very first press conference was a series of bald faced lies and theats that the media believe them. If you don't see this as an emergency, then I don't know what will convince you.

AARO posted:You think Spencer's words are likely to incite or produce such action immanently? Yes, his words caused a man to punch him. Ergo his words incite violence. Pittsburgh Lambic posted:well that got weird af, a blog i read is now arguing that punching nazis and laughing about punching nazis will lead to minorities getting violenced by police more If we start punching and laughing at cops, yes they'll retaliate. But gently caress em, they've already been mass murdering minorities for centuries. got any sevens fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Jan 23, 2017 |

AARO posted:Arguing against the analogy is embarrassingly sophomoric drivel. No, your analogy was bad and wrong, and now that you've been called out on comparing Nazis to gay people, you're blaming everyone else for your poor argument.

AARO posted:In the situation I set forth the reason he was punched was for stating that he was gay. It was not his being gay that triggered the punch, it was that he had spoken such. Hi, nobody actually thinks like this and if you think that the course of reasoning was "this person said he was gay, therefore I will punch him because of the phonemic/lexemic sequence that he vocalized" rather than "this person said he was gay, therefore he probably is, therefore I will punch him" then you don't know how language works. Your scenario is unbelievably stupid, because a man who said that he was gay in a context that undercut the statement and signaled his heterosexuality would not be subject to that kind of treatment. He was not punched for a phonemic sequence, he was punched because the aggressor thought that what he said was true.

Okay, but have you seen it now? Here, I'll quote it for you if you're having trouble finding it. Which side do you think you would have agreed with if you had been around when it came out? Pittsburgh Lambic posted:i mean i don't like nazis but i like violence even less, and posters in the thread got kinda weird and tinfoil-ish about trump and the impending trump disasters, so it all just seems kind of silly from outsider's perspective to see people advocating fisticuffs and rebellion against the white supremacist capitalist patriarchy or w/e i'm supposed to call it Hate crimes spiked after Trump's election. His vice president supports conversion therapy for gay kids. His pick for chief strategist has a history of antisemitism and runs a news site dedicated to the very ideals espoused by neo-nazis and his pick for attorney general literally lost his job because he was too openly racist in the '80s and attacking voting rights of minorities. And I'm going to remind you that you seemed surprised he was endorsed by the KKK and thought Spencer was an obscure figure rather than someone with several interviews in high profile media outlets and also the guy who coined the term "alt-right". Perhaps you should consider reading up on things more before taking a definitive stance. yellowyams fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Jan 23, 2017 |

The whole point of nazism/fascism is that life is eternal conflict and that only a state which exercises systemic violence for its own gain can succeed. If you don't like violence, you should dislike nazism more. It requires and positively endorses not just isolated bouts of violence, but systematic violence (like Spencer calling for black genocide).

Fine it's AAWOPPFSTAG. Can we move on now? No because in that case your analogy sucks and doesn't remotely map on to what's happening. You're attempting an equivocation that doesn't work and don't seem to understand why it doesn't.

Rodatose posted:The whole point of nazism/fascism is that life is eternal conflict and that only a state which exercises systemic violence for its own gain can succeed. That's more Italian Fascism, especially the more modern parts of Italian Fascism. The Nazi romantic vision of violence is very different and, frankly, a lot scarier. It's the difference between trying to be the fastest in a race and dying in a horrific crash because you went faster than you could control and knocking someone off the track so you can win.

What was the difference I thought that nazism had its intellectual roots in the same general place as the musolini/italiian facism and other fascisms of the time, especially drawing from futurism's glorification of violence, motion, nation and technology

Chill people made the best Nazis. My mom grew up next to them. They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than ‘politics. They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. You know who weren’t chill people? Resisters.

AARO posted:I guess we're at an impasse. I really am trying here to understand what the hell you're saying. Punching someone because of how they were born isn't the same as punching someone for the beliefs they hold. The fact that in both cases they told the puncher about the thing they got punched for doesn't make the two situations somehow equivalent.

Do you doubt the possibility of coming up with a hypothetical situation in which the one who is assaulted is beaten merely for speech and also blameless? 1950's. Guy speaks out in defense of black people. Gets punched. (Or an infinite amount of other analogies) gently caress off with this argue against the analogy poo poo.
