Don't forget that we need to stop pecan ice cream from even being imported, lest they contaminate the pure vanilla ice cream with their degenerate nuts.

Applewhite posted:

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 can always count on Applewhite to keep a level head and give it to me straight. And yes, Jontron is a racist rear end in a top hat. There isn't really any more or any less to it.

He certainly seems to be a bit too impressionable. My whole takeaway from his Destiny debacle is that he's attempting to repeat talking points other people have given him.

Pure tinfoil hat territory, but I think Jon found himself on the receiving end of a petty SJW-esque critique, I think he used the word "retarded" in a tweet ages ago. This was stupid and dumb and it left a sour taste in his mouth. As far as he's concerned, these SJWs are silly and kind of demented, and worse yet he gets dragged into Gamergate too. Just tons of stupid stupid "controversies" that get warped and twisted and it's a pain. Then he runs into other persons who have had similar experiences, and they say it's all political, and now they're telling him all these things that the race-baiters in the media don't want you to know and he's probably never had any exposure to any "contrary" viewpoints before, so he accepts it all at face value. Now he's in with whatever you guys call "alt-righters" and they're putting stuff in his ear.

He needs more education on what he's talking about, but somehow I don't think the way these lessons are conducted will find fertile purchase with him until he basically figures out on his own that he's involved with a bad crowd.

Thing is, I still don't really believe any of his sentiments are "hateful" in the typical sense. I think he's been led to believe something, and now he's going to think his position is even more valid because there's a seemingly active effort to denounce his viewpoint. I genuinely do not believe Jon Jafari is actually racist i.e. that he hates persons of other races based solely on that. I don't get that impression. I get the impression he has been convinced of a racist viewpoint, which while not better, makes a lot more sense.

8-Bit you have a literal child's understanding of racism. To you someone can't be racist unless they are actually lynching a black man while screaming "I'm killing this friend of the family for no other reason than the color of his skin!" and even then you'd hem and haw about how he's just misguided and probably doesn't really believe what he said.

You mean the one where he made others demean themselves for money to make a point about petty capitalism and erosion of values in pursuit of cash. What a monster.

It's above all fascinating that it takes at most 5 dollars to have people lose even the last vestiges of dignity and ethical considerations. I would have never guessed people would happily record themselves promoting Nazi messages for beer money.

Also how dare these goddamn loving Jews disagree with me when I try to defend them, ungrateful shits.

A non-hateful idiot would not keep doubling down on his statements with increasingly tortured arguments. A benign gullible idiot would just change his opinions based on who he spoke to the last. Jontron has shown he lacks any humility and puts his own "integrity" above the impact of his words even when told about the error he made.

I think it may be a bit premature to say that. I think it's premature to even say his words have HAD any impact, outside of getting him a lot of flak from media and some games professionals. I'm not even particularly comfortable trying to discern his innermost...earnesty? towards his beliefs? As I said, it sounds like he's regurgitating somebody else's talking points. Man's a fool, hardly surprising, hardly worth much fuss at all. And yet...

I am so glad that giving people who express seemingly racist viewpoints the benefit of the doubt of wanting to understand the context in which their words were said is the equivalent to being a fascist. Apparently my dislike of casting scorn at a person due to them expressing an unpopular opinion is the equivalent to supporting fascism.
