Jontron said racist stuff and is probably a racist. This is bad and I hope he sees the error of his racist ways.

I also think mob justice is bad, and even people who say harmful poo poo should be protected from mob justice. That includes losing your job because of saying a dumb/bad thing.

Well, that's my post!

Mob justice hasn't hurt JonTron so idk why you brought it up.

Does anyone watch H3h3 anymore? I used to back before they became very boring and I know they have a relationship with JonTron which is apparent in a few videos such as this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHp-ZEst4NE

Since H3h3 put almost 100% of their lives on camera, do you think they will or should put out a video in regards to the controversy surrounding their friend?

I predict they say nothing and no longer include JT in any of their videos.Though I wish they would say something mostly because I wonder how Hila, an immigrant from Israel, feels about her friend's opinions on the protection of the White Identity and how that apparently means no refugees or immigrants from that and other regions of the world.

I can't help but feel that it would be poor business sense to ignore this controversy because if they made a video about it it would be hugely popular but only if they make that video soon. On the other hand, Jonnyboy is apparently a friend so making a video might lead to the end of that friendship.

Yes. Apparently calling people racist when they talk about how non-whites are animals and miscegenation is the new Holocaust is "mob justice".

It's pretty normal for people to have weird cognitive dissonance when it comes to dealing with actual individual acquaintances vs. abstract political concepts, and it goes both ways. That being said, I know next to nothing about how political the h3h3 channel is, if at all, but I wouldn't be surprised if they tactfully passed over this drama regardless of their actual views.

This thread is bad but it's a good chance to toss in Jon Ronson on the Justine Sacco incident:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAIP6fI0NAI

Gives a good rundown of the facts and he's a funny guy. What happened to her was a bizarre shame.

I listened to his full book "So You've Been Publicly Shamed", and all of his accounts are not in anyway comparable to JonTron. JonTron has been going down the path of the racist for a long time, and this certainly isn't an isolated incident taken out of context.

Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.

Many of the structures within the body are covered by what is known as fascia. Sounds pretty suspicious. Is the fascism coming from within?

Oh I agree, I just wanted to toss that in since I like the talk and Sacco had come up in thread.

So for the record, JonTron absolutely dug his own grave on this one. Particularly the broader concept that Mexicans coming to the country will destroy "our culture" was pretty bigoted and completely at odds with American history (and complete with creepy laughter). It's also really weird to risk your career on something you don't seem to be that well-informed about (and I'm morbidly curious how this impacts his career).

The words come from the same root, which is the Latin "fasces" which describes a bundle of sticks bound together to become stronger as a whole than they are individually.

Technically technically TECHNICALLY!!!!!!!

"Fascism" is a very ill-defined and often misascribed concept, but at it's most stripped down and basic core it's just a form of militaristic socialism that does not inherently include a racial component. All military and police organizations are "fascist" in structure to some extent, even if they don't have hegemonizing fascist goals. It would be hypothetically possible for someone to be a "fascist" without being a racist or even violent person.

However, that's not how it's used in the colloquial vocabulary, and due to recent modern historical events, "fascist" and "Nazi" are often used interchangeably even if they did not originally start out that way. I don't generally make the distinction between the two but if we're discussing the topic academically -as opposed to conversationally- I will point out the difference.

So, if you want to get technical, "fascist" is an inaccurate way to describe JonTron. It is much more accurate o say he is a Nazi or holds Nazi-like racial beliefs. If you really want to avoid any pedantic objections, he is a "racist piece of poo poo."

I mean, are you seriously saying that he's saying non-whites are subhuman based on that? That's not really what he's communicating, even if he's phrasing it poorly. If anything he is saying that over time minority groups can become part of the majority group through intermingling.

Destiny: "so you don't want people to immigrate and change the 'white European culture'. Okay, what if you had some brown people who moved here and perfectly assimilated and embraced the culture, why does it matter if they're white or brown?"
