RandomPauI posted:There've been worse ways to remember MLK. There's a company that sells military Lego-style kits. They called Martin Luther King a fighter for civil rights and gave a discount on their wares in his honor. The discount also includes all their Vietnam War stuff. Ironically, he supported Vietnam in the beginning as the first integrated war until it became clear that the lives of black soldiers were being valued less than white ones.

SomeMathGuy posted:Huh? He didn't speak out in opposition at first because he was concerned it could potentially undo LBJ's civil rights agenda, but that's quite a bit different from "supporting" it. "Since I am a preacher by calling, I suppose it is not surprising that I have seven major reasons for bringing Vietnam into the field of my moral vision. There is at the outset a very obvious and almost facile connection between the war in Vietnam and the struggle I and others have been waging in America. A few years ago there was a shining moment in that struggle. It seemed as if there was a real promise of hope for the poor, both black and white, through the poverty program. There were experiments, hopes, new beginnings. Then came the buildup in Vietnam, and I watched this program broken and eviscerated as if it were some idle political plaything on a society gone mad on war. And I knew that America would never invest the necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as adventures like Vietnam continued to draw men and skills and money like some demonic, destructive suction tube. So I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poor and to attack it as such." Huh, I guess he did.

The anti-semitic stuff was apparently from a bit where he was being paid to say stuff his fans sent in or something. He may have done it in a bid to get banned so he has a reason to retire, but YouTube will never do it because if he changes his mind he could start up a genuine competitor to them with his 50 million subscribers.
