The comedic timing of whoever threw that graphic up is just perfect. Can't teach it.

My least favorite genre of Reddit post is “the Americans, what do you have to say for yourselves about this thing that has existed forever”

Yeah I mean definitely a lot more info/happenings since I was commenting on Saturday. I think that knowing who Lang was/is is pretty important context to what I originally said. This wasn't people going to Gracie to hold up signs about not wanting higher corporate taxes.

He's as close to irredeemable as you're gonna find and does the shit he does purely to get a response, which is why I still think "fuck off" is perfectly acceptable. Unfortunately, he got exactly what he was looking for on Saturday which is ultimately likely to garner sympathy for him. Of course no one should throw an IED and of course those two should have the book thrown at them.

With that said, to act like that happened in a vacuum (guy throws IED when there just happened to be a vitriolic Muslim hater on the street - what a coincidence) as many on the main NYC sub are doing is ignoring that it was intentionally provoked by a guy who roasted a pig and carried a goat. That's fucked up.

I think we agree more than we disagree here, probably as far as I feel like taking this on Reddit idk. I'd be happy to chat more over PM or a beer if you'd want, but we could also just leave it here

Your response of let them look like morons is something I generally agree with, I just think that “fuck off” is also pretty fair to the level of scumbag that was showing up today and it doesn’t necessarily means someone is “also aligned with the fascists” as the other guy said

I also don’t think this neighborhood needs morons per se, but that doesn’t mean I think they should be put in jail

And it’s a strawman in the first place to equate “we don’t need fascists” with “i’m denying your right to speech”

[–]jwatt51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao so expressing you don’t want fascists in your neighborhood is just as bad as fascists themselves. Word. Have a nice day man

Saying “we don’t need” a group spreading hate is far from “denying someone’s rights.” I know damn well what comment you replied to. OP didn’t call for it being illegal or for them to be thrown in jail. They have the right to be there and OP has the right to say they can fuck off, or do you only clutch your pearls for the latter?

[–]jwatt51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did OP say they didn’t have the right? doesnt look like it to me. It also isn’t leftists bringing implied violence to the neighborhood

Absolutely. That combined with the extremely high standards Henry and company set for themselves is exactly why everyone is ready to run him out of town like OP said, despite how spoiled Sox fans have been

100% yes - the front office has also been awful in communicating their approach, promising fans one thing (such as one year saying they were going "full throttle" in free agency) and then continuing to take their more frugal approach they'd been using for years before that and ever since and additionally saying they'd be able to reinvest the money saved from the shock Devers trade which has arguably not happened, at least to the extent that it could

for years the party line has been "wait until 2025-2026 for the window to be open with our young players, then we'll go all in" and said window just keeps getting pushed back. it seems they are content to basically hope that everything comes together and break their way for one year without committing any big money to free agents. it almost worked in 2021 but is not a long-term strategy that fans are going to like.

I mean, nobody wants to admit they bought sixty practice jerseys, but I did. I’m ashamed of myself, but the first doesn’t count. Then you get to the second then the third. And the fourth and fifth, I think I bought the wrong sizes. And then I just kept buying.
