Trump didn't win because he was some great campaign genius or the reasons people think. Trump won because idiots like this constantly depressed voter turn out, and have the ear of the DNC.

Taintrunner posted:Let me explain it to you in as simple as terms as possible. Nazis are literally the exception that proves the rule when it comes to defending free speech rights, because they are the political project who seek to do little more than take it away from as many people as possible, through means of violence and oppression. America literally put young men on boats and sent them across the Atlantic to shoot Nazis in the head not a century before. So you're okay with taking away civil liberties, but only from groups that want to take away civil liberties. Shouldn't you want your own taken away too then? 🤔

we should expect the bourgeois state to protect everyone's freedom of speech because the state will recognize no distinction between fascist right and radical left. Extralegal action coupled with halfassed protection from law enforcement is a better way to silence fascists than direct action from the bourgeois state.

Jeb! Repetition posted:I'm defending civil liberties, not fascists. You're defending the people who want to take civil liberties from everyone else, so no, you're attacking civil liberties. That's the joy of civil liberties - you can do whatever you want, hell you can even roleplay Rommel in your own home, but you can't organize and form a political movement centered on taking civil liberties away from and violently oppressing people who do not fit in your pathetic concept of a "Master Race." Spineless liberals will time and time go to bat for the rights of actual fascists while saying nothing as the rights of leftists, BLM, etc. are violently suppressed. In some cases, they'll actively work to make situations worse, like lobbying for police bodycams made by the same company that produces the taser. Those bodycams have not put cops in prison, but instead further enabled the state to continue oppressing vulnerable communities. There is no need to defend fascists or their rights, as time and time again this has never led to an epiphany where they realize they should stop supporting a political movement based on violent oppression of the marginalized. A fascist can stop being a fascist any time they like. The Jews never got to stop being Jews, even as the Weimar liberals handed the state over to fascists with an openly stated hatred of their identity. That is the difference you are refusing to understand.

No, I'm opposed to Nazis taking away civil liberties, just like I'm opposed to you doing it. Taintrunner posted:Spineless liberals As opposed to the brave, brave people who are so terrified of talking they want to make it illegal. By the way I am a leftist and I'd fight for leftist civil liberties at least as hard as everybody else's. Taintrunner posted:There is no need to defend fascists or their rights, as time and time again this has never led to an epiphany where they realize they should stop supporting a political movement based on violent oppression of the marginalized.

That is the difference you are refusing to understand. Uh yeah, that's why being a fascist is bad and being Jewish isn't. But the point of civil liberties extending to fascists isn't to persuade them, it's first to keep liberties universal so that dissent can exist (and the arbiters of good and bad speech, even if they agree with you now [which they don't] won't forever) and second so that fascists will out their horrendous ideas where you can see them and counter them in an actually meaningful way, instead of staying hidden and spreading them unopposed.

https://twitter.com/NewtTrump/status/896953373735481347 why assault journalists? (ignoring the source I got this tweet from, focus on the video as it's from a local CBS reporter). While I can see AntiFa doing good going after literal actual nazi's, why attack the press? That's cowardly. That's their job. That's something protected by the Bill of Rights.

You know that it's possible to be a leftist who supports free speech rights correct? You're not a spineless liberal simply for not wanting the same government currently considering punishing BDS with huge bipartisan support to also start regulating speech. Also, what exactly do you want done about the first amendment? You can't just wish it out of existence. Like that German law you pointed to earlier, I don't think laws like that are some terrible 1984 dystopia but you literally *can't* do that here, it would be struck down 9-0 by the SCOTUS.

Also: https://twitter.com/carrerapulse/status/896884472947261440 They're screaming "NAZI" at a guy who I'm pretty sure is rocking a Star of David around his neck. Also some #unitetheright people seem to have been looking through the footage of the guy that drove his car through the crowd and they might have turned up something to suggest that it's partly the antifa crowd's fault, or at least one idiot's fault. https://twitter.com/LucidHurricaneX/status/896841578173661186 Someone took a swing at the back of the vehicle, and that's when he accelerates into the crowd. Maybe the nazi isn't such a bad guy after all?
