I agree with those tweets totally. But punching nazis who have not first punched you is not self-defense. Like I said, If they are on my lawn with their tiki torches then yes. I personally, don't give a poo poo about their circus. As long as that statue is removed all is well. I saw no where in those tweets where they were talking about shutting down their 'rally'. I did see mentions of self-defense however.

Confronting high-compaction Narrativists when they gather in numbers and being prepared to throw down is really the only option at present. We are long past the point where this could be contained using any other method. Direct confrontation is now the only language a fair number of them speak and if you do not meet their challenge their numbers will swell rapidly. At this point smashing every Nazi rally and doxxing each one of them stupid enough to appear at these things is the only way we as a people have of doing literally anything about this situation. The Federal Government cannot be relied upon to contain things and in fact at the very highest levels is actively encouraging violent extremism from white supremacists

Also taking down those Confederate symbols is a major blow to the Inner narrative of members of the Racist cluster and would genuinely go a great ways towards demoralizing/weakening them.

Narrativists live and die by their symbols, tear down their symbols and you tear down their ability to live in their delusions.

The doxxing is great up to a point though. The more the GOP becomes the white supremacy party, the more socially acceptable it's going to be to go to those rallies and the less effect doxxing is going to have.

Your beliefs are irrelevant in the face of cold harsh reality and your moralistic assertions are inherently empty because you cannot back up your arguments with anything more than your emotional attachment to your beliefs. Please go read the responses from various Goons who actually do know what they are talking about. You have no idea what you are talking about and are actively getting in the way of productive conversations that could be otherwise taking place.

For future reference

quote:

In an argument (usually a political debate), a concern troll is someone who is on one side of the discussion, but pretends to be a supporter of the other side with "concerns". The idea behind this is that your opponents will take your arguments more seriously if they think you're an ally. Concern trolls who use fake identities are sometimes known as sockpuppets.

In this case the concern is "non violence is a moral imperative isn't it??" which is just Nazi comfort enabling because for some reason the subject doesn't see the rest of humanity as his neighbors.

these aren't conservatives.

this isn't a "ha ha, oh you racist cad.". this isn't a "hey, we can agree to disagree!" statement.

there's no "how about we compromise" for nazis.

they have one goal. eliminate all blacks because they've never gotten laid in their lives. they plan to kill an entire group of people.

you can't pop off with "how about half the blacks, I REALLY don't want to rock the boat here."

you can't pop off with "how about we try getting along :)"

you solve the nazi problem by breaking their jaws so they can't talk anymore. you solve the nazi problem by breaking their legs so they can't organize anymore. you solve the nazi problem by beating them bloody in public spaces over and over again until they realize being a nazi is actually super dangerous and they either shut up and go away, or go back to jerking it to anime in the darkness.

in the paradox of how do you deal with a group of people that push for genocide, the answer is to kill them first. it always has been. you beat them physically over and over again till people choose not to go to rallies anymore and they lose popular support. you beat them by finding their employers and forcing them to become unemployable to the point they'll have to live on the streets as homeless. you beat them by making them the enemy and showing people what happens to the enemy over and over again.

sorry your morality matters more then the lives of thousands. you must be white.

Yes but on the other hand the more openly they associate with white supremacy, the less centrists are going to be swayed by all the typical pre-election bullshit they peddle about how "both sides are really the same, you guys". There's a reason why they still rely on dog whistles to reach their white supremacist base - because that base isn't nearly big enough to win them elections on their own, and they know that the voters that will get them over the line will find their beliefs repugnant if they describe them honestly.

Literally all the Nazis had to do was not do the overtly Nazi poo poo and they would have been fine. American and Confederate flags only, no "blood and soil", or Hail Victory. Now it's much harder (though they're still doing it) for reasonabe people to claim both sides are bad, and anyone who fights Nazis is going to look good.

Trump made the Nazis overconfident. They forgot why they called themselves Alt-Right in the first place.

I only thought to take a picture towards the end, but here's a picture of a confederate flag protest and a black lives matter counter-protest in front of southern miss in hattiesburg, ms. We managed to stick around long enough that the confederate flag people went home, and we're planning to come back next sunday, hopefully in even larger force. They confederate flag people have been doing this every weekend for around a year, over the university not flying the state flag, originally. Everyone who showed up today was pretty much of the same mind, that we're loving sick of seeing this god drat bullshit loving flag poo poo in front of the university, on the main road through town, every loving sunday. After yesterday, a counter-protest was hastily organized by one of the southern mississippi DSA people and managed to get about 30 people together to hold signs and poo poo in front of the confederate flag people. I live about two blocks away from this spot, so I've seen this protest a lot. There were, to my eyes, around 4 times as many people there in general as usual(though this picture is towards the end, when most of both sides had already left - I was busy screaming at people and wasn't taking pictures), and most of them were there as counterprotesters.

This protest takes place on a small plot of land which is, for legal reasons which I do not quite understand yet, not under control of the university but is rather public land so it's the only place they can do this at on this road. It's the best possible place for them to do it, too - if you drive through hattiesburg there is a 90% chance you'll go by this spot at some point in your day, for some reason. So we're going to show up next week early as we can, and just tailgait, basically. It's what they've been doing for the past year, so we're going to...counter-tailgait? It's the most Mississippi thing I can think of. Anyway, I can't loving wait.

We also have to do a better job educating kids/everyone why Nazis are bad (I know I can't believe it's come to this). It's not just white supremacy is bad -- it's white supremacy is one of the most destructive forces in history and has caused countless tragedies long before Nazis were around and, ya know, black people are people.

Also, we have to start fighting this notion that Nazis were efficient in any way. All the "well they got the economy on track" or "trains on time" counterfactual nonsense. There were smart Nazis, but they're inherently dumb when it comes to organizing a society.
