except no one on the nazi side wasn't a nazi. this wasn't some case of co-opted movement. and trump is so dumb i can believe he is too dumb not to know the difference, not that he cares.

Businessman Philip Neville Arps admits distributing mosque shooting footage



quote:

Philip Neville Arps - who owned a white supremacist themed insulation company - has pleaded guilty to two charges of distributing footage of the Al Noor Mosque attack.

[...]

One charge was for sharing raw footage from the accused shooter's livestream to approximately 30 people on Facebook.

The other was for requesting the footage be modified by another person - having crosshairs and a "kill count" added.

The court heard he intended to distribute this modified footage as a meme.

A police statement says Arps, 44, said the modified footage was "awesome" - and says he showed no empathy for the people killed
some dude in NZ who owned a "black sun"-themed insulation company got slammed for being a repulsive facebook nazi, lmao

He flew under the radar for a while, people just saw him as the Dilbert guy and didn't realize he was running his mouth on men's rights poo poo for years. It was 2011 when he managed to out himself sockpuppeting on reddit about how high his IQ is. Back then he still made money doing corporate speaking events for tech companies who thought Dilbert was still relevant, I imagine all that has dried up and he has to grift online now.

Piercy says that she doesn’t support white supremacy, Naziism, or alt-right causes. Nor does she believe the president has that in his heart.

“My partner is a black man who travelled to Charlottesville for the same reason I did [to protect free speech]. We were in groups and he’s a very good man. What we were trying to do is talk to Antifa and Black Lives Matter and let them know that the way they were protesting is the wrong way to go about it.

(sounds like a very neutral party to this event :v:)

oh wait, look at that, American Warrior Revolution is actually a protrump milita group, not a "peacekeeping" group

you laugh but it's what they'd prefer when given the choice, even towns that saw an immigrant influx save them economically years later voted to kick all the immigrants out or similar because *assuming very reporter voice* "things had changed too much" and "the town lost its small town feel"

their kids don't feel this way but welcome to small town life, young adults don't have say in poo poo and if they want anything better they've gotta leave or join a Juggalo commune

To his very meager defense that's an application of a common New Agey idea, the law of attraction, which is magical thinking taken to its most literal and laziest conclusion: wish hard for a thing and it'll have to happen. If it didn't work, you didn't wish hard enough.

https://www.modernhealthcare.com/indepth/rural-hospital-closure-tennessee-leaves-town-scrambling/

quote:

“The hospital was a force holding the community together,” said Dr. Mahmood Siddiqui, one of three internal medicine physicians in the area who previously led emergency services at Copper Basin. “Without it, I think this community probably will disintegrate.”

...

Copper Basin is one of 83 rural hospitals that closed from 2010 to 2017, according to the North Carolina Rural Health Research Program. Tennessee is second only to Texas in the number of rural hospital closures, with eight shutting down since 2012 and another half dozen in deep financial trouble. Part of that’s because of the lack of money and higher number of uninsured patients in rural communities. Tennessee and Texas opted not to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. There is evidence that Medicaid expansion has helped improve rural hospitals’ financial performance and reduced the risk that they’ll close.
