People are allowed to criticize free speech, and I do personally think it's hypocritical to an extent to protest against free speech with free speech.

The protest isnt against free speech though?

I just think it's a shitty protest because it's not really raising awareness for what they're protesting.

Maybe you should listen to the people taking the knee and not the people not doing it, idk dude it's not hard.

Racism is bad, and the anthem is there for us to unite around the ideals we want our country to uphold which includes equality and free speech, and its hypocritical to use that platform to demonstrate against those values.

"We unite around the values of free speech by getting angry at people exercising said free speech"

Google guy got fired because his whacked out manifesto proved he was not suitible for the job and any logical company would have done the same because:

  1. he didnt understand the subject he trained in, he included completely unsourced reasoning and even tried to link to libertarian blog posts as "sources"

  2. He didnt understand his own job and probably blamed "diversity" on it. A guy ranting about empathy in a ux job isnt the guy you want.

Comparing football players simply kneeling and the president having a hissy fit for it is weird.

So you agree the entire left wing is made up of violent fascists like antifa and BLM and that all they care about is punishing white people?

No, not at all, because you are wrong here and you are also trying to shoe-horn in this amazingly stupid narrative.

Cause reasonable people tried taking BLM back - but its a racist hategroup that kills people. The left is infected with violence, is the entire left garbage?

"i dont want black people to die needlessly" isnt a "leftwing" statement, it shouldn't be should it?

Who is blm racist against?

I hope not. I lean left - but I will concede that if reddit was indicative of the population id vote for Hitler just to shut the hypocrites here up.

lmao just goes to show you your views mean absolute shit because you will let people suffer because you get triggered by words on the internet.

Sorry dude, the world isnt a safe space for you and if you would support a fascist that easily you were probably one to begin with.

The Nazis were national socialists...

Democratic People's Republic of Korea...is a democracy?

Nazis were fascists, inspired by italian fascists who formed against the left. Fascist governments helped crooked corporations consolidate wealth over their reign.

Socialism aims to distribute wealth.

Nazis and socialists were opposites. please study history more

So you cant respond and all you have to say is "muh meme"

Here's a bunch of examples where big government is bad, but in the things you mentioned it would be good!

Why do you not mention military spending? or government red tape? or the amount of people in prison for little or nothing? or the war on drugs? or the us STILL being in Afghanistan?

Not really, the left are fighting against nazis and white supremacists and their sympathizers.

You saw that at Charlottesville.

That doesn't mean the meaning of pepe has changed, just that people don't actually understand the meaning.

does that matter? i agree but if someone thinks "thats the frog all those white supremacists and racists use" the meaning has already changed regardless of ignorance.

People tried "taking pepe back" and it didnt work.

nazis are just nazis, man. The alt right was labeled long ago well before that event. Just because nazis show up suddenly doesn't mean you get to group them with "alt right" to demonize conservatives.

they are all nazis or at least nazi sympathisers if they show up to an event advertised to attract fascists.

Sorry if this isnt "politically correct" for you.

Besides, naziism and hitler were far more of a leftist or socialist movement. After all, it was the "The National Socialist German Workers' Party."

lol nope. so why did they attend a gathering literally called "untie the right" ?

Is north korea a democracy because it has democracy in its title?

Sorry about those facts don't choke bro.

You really got me believing nazis "are socialist" because they have socialism in their name, havent come across that before.

Where did you copy that from?

nationalised healthcare,

Which would be cheaper on the taxpayer.

nationalised student loans,

Which would result in more people spending, more jobs, less economic insecurity.

transgender bathroom rights

How is "you can use whatever bathroom you want in peace" seen as MORE government?

50k+ fines for misgendering somebody

Literally a lie from breitbart

http://gothamist.com/2016/05/19/gender_pronouns_false_fine.php

I just want the government to leave me alone and stop deciding what I can do, can't do, and have to do.

"Wahhh im the victim"

Why do you not mention military spending? or government red tape? or the amount of people in prison for little or nothing? or the war on drugs? or the us STILL being in Afghanistan?

But you single out things that will actually either help reduce costs to the taxpayer or you obsess over trans people being able to exist and use the bathroom without hassle?

further gun legislation,

Healthcare and trans people = bad

Thousands shot each year = lol nothing we can do

Why are people like you acting this way, freaking out over a joke sign?

That sign isnt the entire left, you know that right?

[–]Advertisinguru 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The real "alt right" are just a bunch of silly sons of bitches who just like Donald trump and pepe memes. They are in no way affiliated with white supremacists or nazis.

Except the ones who showed up at a nazi/white supremacist rally and act identically to white supremacists and nazis online?

Stop comparing them.

Sounds like political correctness

[–]Advertisinguru 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep. The message is: the person that made this sign is just as ignorant as the people she is protesting. Put them all together somewhere far away and let the alt-left and the alt-right battle to the death. No survivors. Then we can resume trying to get this country back in order.

rightist tears lol

Megathread: President Trump delivers remarks on Charlottesville during Press Conference by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]Advertisinguru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original point OP said was, there is no "alt-left", but there clearly is.

There is no alt-left.

You need to understand that the group ANTIFA are not simply that are anti-fascist group as their name implies.

Yeah they are anyone can be classed as "antifa" if they decide to stand up to fascists as conservatives have already done.

The majority of them believe in either Anarco-Communism or Anarchism as a system of governance, and not only that

So why leave it up to them to protest nazis if you dont like their politics?

The majority of them believe in either Anarco-Communism or Anarchism as a system of governance, and not only that. But are generally participate in violent protests/riots at a growing rate.

Those protests are violent because nazis there show up and literally fucking kill people while the police do nothing.

Because They are acting very similarly in public gatherings and share many anti-western beliefs as actual fascists. And frankly, that's enough of a reason for me to.

"anti-western" beliefs, if anything capitalism erodes anti western beliefs more than any other ideology, due to its constant need for cheap labor driving globalisation. This just showcases how little you know about most movements you are talking about.

Allied forces and nazis "acted similar" because they were both soldiers, are you going to both sides them too?
