Bannon proudly stated that he created a platform for the alt-right, but he'll denounce Spencer (who created the phrase) if it allows him to keep his job in the damn White House. Breitbart isn't pro-Nazi (at least not explicitly), but it still has a "black crime" section. Hopefully, this threading of the needle won't work. But a President attempting it is pretty damn frightening. The sad part is, in 7 months, Bannon's legacy has been cemented already. A year, if you count joining the campaign, whenever that was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daily Stormer is where some of the most vicious, most fervent alt-righters are. If you're Russia, and are running a highly successful intel op in the USA designed to empower fringe groups and divide and conquer, then hosting a place like Daily Stormer is an obvious thing to do. Of course, the fact that their white supremecist nonsense is now being posted on a website ending in .ru SHOULD tip them off that they are Kremlon pawns, but somehow I doubt it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) Nazis killed 25 million Russians. In fact, the nazis began as a movement to fight the communism the soviet union stood for, and of course evolved into what it eventually became. I'm sure a website promoting their hatred is alright, i guess. What the **** is wrong with this ****ing world? ~Bang Edited August 16, 2017 by Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I heard the audio from Pence in Chile. He started with kind of an emotionless backing of Trump. Then did a preacher tone next by mentioning Heather Heyer by name. He knows the GOP is asking him to keep a distance from Trump while not burning him at the same time.

Riggo-toni Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Mike Pence: As long as he doesn't placate them queer folk or let them marry and promises to cleanse all the trannies from our glorious military...I can live with a touch of racism thrown in just to keep ahead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 2 hours ago, Lombardi's_kid_brother said: I don't think you can necessarily draw conclusions about the motivations behind Confederate monuments in a specific sense. 2 hours ago, Lombardi's_kid_brother said: I'm sure there are specific examples of Confederate iconography being an F-You. The Georgia state flag change in '56 is the most obvious example. But the South has been seeking to redeem the war in ways large and small since April 1865. There are specific examples from the DC suburb of Fairfax County, Virginia. JEB Stuart High School in the Falls Church area and Robert E. Lee High School in the Franconia area of Springfield were opened in 1958. the Fairfax County School Board was in open defiance a Supreme Court order to integrate Fairfax County schools. The choice of names for those schools at that time was no coincidence. I'm trying, but I haven't been able to find when the part of Route 1 that goes from the Pentagon through Crystal City into Alexandria, Virginia got the name "Jefferson Davis Highway." But that smacks of a big Southern eff you that's stuck around for many decades. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh8686 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) Thought this was interesting... In 1945, the Austrian philosopher Karl Popper—writing from New Zealand, where he had fled from the OG Nazis—identified what he terms the Paradox of Tolerance: "Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." Which basically means a balance of tolerance is needed, not extreme tolerance. In order to protect tolerance we must be intolerant to those things that are inherently intolerant. Like ****ing nazi man children who fail so bad at life, they create this hateful fantasy of false superiority, to distract them from how inferior they feel at being able to build the most basic foundations of a decent and fruitful life.
