Embarrassing stuff tbh. Are you seriously putting assault and damage to property above murder ? I'd also like to see some evidence of all these Lenin and Mao admirers amongst anti Trump protesters. It's more than likely that the hardcore anti Trumpers engaging in violence are in fact anarchists, who incidentally, are closer to your own self proclaimed 'libertarian' views on the political spectrum than to anyone on the centre-left 4 hours ago, TheProgressiveLiberal said: I feel I made a fair point, though.

Certainly the commies have a mass lead in property damage and assaults over the past couple of years. Utter nonsense, the far right/Nazis/white supremacists have racked up quite then number of murders and terrorist attacks in the past 20 years, second only to Islamic terrorism. (and more than Islamic terror if we take away the 9/11 and Oaklahoma outliers) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I find alt-right to be quite a cuddly name. I thought it referred to people who put discs in their ear lobes, have emo haircuts, sleeve tattoos and wear dark eyeliner. I would've never guess it meant Neo-Nazi scumbags and internet trolls posing as Neo-Nazi scumbags. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I think I remember that from the time actually. It's not that his supporters are believing what they say when they defend him. I genuinely believe the supporters he has left are right there with him, with the exact same beliefs he has. How else can they continue to support his hate filled and idiotic presidency? I don't buy into the rhetoric that everyone that voted for him was a bigot or anything, which was something that we seen too much of. There's been far too much since he became president to ignore, whether it be to his bigotry to his total incompetence. Which means if you still support Trump, there aren't many more conclusions to draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about the Antifa people who shut down the Nazi rally. There were Soviet Union, Chinese, and other red flags all over the place. That's what those people were choosing to represent themselves as. Sorry, if they think that the Soviet Union and Communist China are countries worth emulating then they are just as bad as the Nazis. 7 minutes ago, welshbairn said: The Central Park Five is one of the worst. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/18/opinion/why-trump-doubled-down-on-the-central-park-five.html?_r=0 Didn't the evidence show that she was raped by multiple guys, but they managed to get one guy to take the fall years later?

Churchill wanted to fight an election on keeping all non-white immigrants out of Britain. Roosevelt presided over an immigration system that basically said only European Protestants could move here. The system was a decade old when he took office, but he did nothing to change it despite overwhelming majorities in Congress. Eisenhower launched Operation Wetback when he was President. Over 1 million Mexicans were captured and deported in a year. Over a million more fled back to Mexico. I'm just point out the positions of the people who actually fought fascists. So it seem a bit odd to use the men who fought against Germany as a proxy for modern progressive arguments. 4 hours ago, Henderson to deliver ..... said: Embarrassing stuff tbh.

At the Trump rally I attended, one of the disrupters thrown out was waving a Soviet Union flag. All the pictures I see where Antifa and BLM are attacking Trump rallies they are flying Communist flags. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second difference is that percentages of white Americans or British who are hard right or support Nazi parties vs the percentages of Muslims who are Islamists or support Islamic law. How exactly do you propose to stop Islamists from getting into the country? It's a domestic problem as much as its a foreign one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could avoid the problems of Islamic radicalism if we had a sensible immigration policy to prevent radical foreign ideologies from entering our countries. It's not a problem we have to deal with in our society unless we choose to import it. Nazis are a fact of life in the West. Both are terrible, but the solution to dealing with them are different. Immigration restriction is the best way of dealing with Islamic radicalism. Hard nosed law and order for when they step an inch out of line is the best way to deal with Nazis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
