Wow, 200 new posts in the RWM thread? Did Rush finally die or something?

Oh, no, it's just some Nazi apologist. Never mind.

I was going to go get something from Glenn Beck's site so this would have content and not just be a shitpost, but apparently Beck has changed his site's layout and I was greeted by an extreme closeup of Glenn Beck's face taking up my entire monitor. So that was unpleasant. But his radio show has been pretty standard lately, he defended Cosby for a bit and talked about how it was a failure of the justice system because maybe there was reasonable doubt about what he did so a guilty verdict is bad. He talked a bit today about how Venezuela proves socialism is a gigantic failure and made fun of a socialism conference. I think the US officially pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal happened after his radio show was over so I'm sure that'll be his big topic of discussion tomorrow.

Didn't Beck just recently fire his whole staff except for like 3 people and just sold his private jet because he's hemorrhaging money now that he's an RMW hasbeen? It kind of amazes me that he's still even able to produce content at this point.

I don't think it was that dramatic, but yeah there were layoffs and he is trying to sell his jet.

Yeah that happened for about a page before Sun Chips showed up, there were a couple of posts highlighting "white dudes posing in a nighttime forest" pictures from the article. I skimmed through it and it was the usual bullshit of people like Jordan Peterson talking about being "free thinkers" and how they're so cool for having to go to the "deep web" so they can say thought-provoking taboo statements like "All Muslims are terrorists."

The evidence of the $185 mil number is sketchy, but he owns a lot of poo poo, at least worth a few mil.

With the poo poo he got/gets up to it makes sense that he'd be wealthy because a lot of other people would probably worry that being that high profile of an out neo nazi would jeopardize their ability to eat. The Charleston neo nazis didn't realize this, and it was lol when their pictures ended up in newspapers and poo poo got real for them.

Notice how the word "torture" doesn't show up once in his trash heap of an article. Even he knows in his shriveled Bush administration heart that she's indefensible so he can't even mention it.

Also why do these monsters always look that this guy? It's like they's a secret nazi clone lab still producing them that we forgot to shut down after the war and the only way to contain their evil is to give them op-ed jobs.

So it was a boring Wednesday so I listened to that stupid TAL episode that trolling rear end in a top hat kept linking.

They go to great lengths to contextualize the conservative woman who enlisted herself as a shock troop in the culture war while aggressively decontextualizing her opposition by questioning the specifics of her politics. They do this because they have a disdain for conservative politics that makes them assume it's unserious. They're comfortable questioning the specifics of fascism with the leftist(because they personally understand it), but they do not dare question the specifics of the conservative's politics because they assume the person doesn't really believe it or understand it. It's creepy and weird.

Like, yeah, it ends with them concluding conservatives are conspiring to silence left professors, but the route they get there is bizarre and betrays their bias toward civility at all costs. They do not take conservatism in 2018 seriously.

You know, I used to believe in civility -- touted it in this very thread, in fact! -- but the last few months has really driven home that you simply can't be nice to Nazis to stop them from being Nazis. Indeed, I've come to believe that assaulting a Nazi is no assault at all, that it is in fact self-defense, as the very philosophy behind Nazism is violence against all who do not conform to their ideal.

I do not exaggerate. Nazis don't have a particular economic plan, they don't have religious dogma, they don't have any basis or belief beyond "white man is best man," which means they fight for nothing of substance. At least Communists believe they can introduce total economic equality, at least religious fanatics believe they are following the will of their god, but the Alt-Right's entire message is "waaah, I'm white."

I would not shed a single tear if a load of Nazis were gunned down, and I would laugh long and loud if they were gunned down by one of their own because he believed (((GLOBALISTS!))) had infiltrated his little group.

Of course, you might think that ironies this obvious rarely occur in the real world. Surely life is much more subtle. But if you assume this, you haven’t yet read Bari Weiss’ New York Times op-ed/fawning profile, “Meet the Renegades of the Intellectual Dark Web.” Weiss uses the nation’s paper of record to introduce audiences to a group of people whose voices are supposedly being kept out of mainstream institutions, but who for some reason I seem to hear about all the drat time.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

Its really striking how invested Fox News is in the West Virginia Senate race. I first noticed it when they ran their own Republican Primary last week and I was like "I've never seen that on a cable news network before." But ever since then I've been hyper aware of how often they bring it up and showcase the race even when not discussing any others. Its not really a surprise in the idea of it. Like I get what they're doing. But it is kind of unexpected how hard Fox News is working to get Joe Manchin out of the Senate. Its like mcmagic is producing over there.

Like, every single segment is just them taking turns either shouting "TRUMP IS WINNING, HE'S BEATING NORTH KOREA, HE'S DOING SO WELL EVERYONE LOVES TRUMP...JUAN DON'T YOU AGREE YOU AND ALL DEMOCRATS ARE loving IDIOTS" or "THE LIBS ARE THE REAL BIGOTS FOR CARING ABOUT BIGOTRY...JUAN YOU'RE A BLACK DON'T YOU AGREE?!
