    Hmmm… Maybe a bunch of pos people should go around begging for money from the lunatics so that by the election time the lunatics are out so we don’t get bomblasted with ads. Just an idea.

      Well it’s only socialism when you give money to brown people.

      That’s essentially what these people’s beliefs essentially boil down to. They don’t actually know what socialism is, not really. They’re just trying to justify racism.

        Well it’s only socialism when you give money to brown people.

        You left out unwed mothers, people with disabilities, and anyone else who isn’t a racist, fascist, or otherwise piece of shit. It’s only socialism when society deems you to be deserving of help. When you’re just an asshole, it’s crowdfunding against the woke mind virus.

        It’s a subtle difference that these cretins couldn’t possibly comprehend because there is no distinction (that it’s actually socialism) because they’re as dumb as a rock. But try explaining that to them and watch them sputter about cancel culture.

    Unfortunately, voicing fully legal traditional right-wing political views results in real consequences.

    Yes.

    This is cancel culture and political discrimination on full display.

    No.

      You are free to be a racist ignorant asshole in public and proudly announce it … you won’t be arrested for it.

      The majority of everyone around you will hate your guts tho and will deny ever being your friend or wanting to know you again.

      There’s a reason why all these fascist wannabes have to hide their identity, wear masks and change their names. They want to be a cockroach but they know that everyone hates cockroaches

    It’s just the culture that kind of exists currently surrounding the manner in which you’re canceled for voicing […] any heterosexual, Christian, sort of moral belief that goes beyond sort of the secularism and the relativism that we’re so used to in our time.”

    I suspect that wasn’t the reason.

        “We need a white nation! It’s our only future! Vive le Fascisme,” one donor wrote while contributing $88. The number 88 is a coded far-right symbol used by neo-Nazis and white supremacists, which stands for “Heil Hitler” as H is the eighth letter of the alphabet.

        Yeah, exactly. They aren’t all duped, they’re buying the shoes and crypto.

        every participant in fascism is both the con artist and the conned. they dupe others and themselves into spreading and supporting an ideology which will eventually harm everyone including themselves.

        These are his people. He is their guy.

        This is a guy who went on a Reality TV Show to audition for the attention of right-wingers. He’s not any more “their guy” than con-artists like Andrew Tate or Bari Weiss. They’re carnival barkers and you’re out in the crowd waving your wallet.

        “Invasion of privacy and illegal surveillance” are typically terms you associate with people and institutions of power. Not hackers outing hate groups. There is a distinct difference between “illegal surveillance” and shouting the names of self-proclaimed nazis and fascists to protect vulnerable populations from them.

        It’s not “a side” that’s doing it, it’s people. Not institutions, not a government. It’s protection from those that would use actual illegal surveillance to target out-groups. Paradox of tolerance plays heavily in this scenario. People are all for protecting the innocent. But when people like you say, “well, wait a second now, these fascists deserve privacy too,” you play right into the natural evolution of fascism.

            It’s illegal regardless of who is doing it

            Something being illegal or not says absolutely nothing about it’s morality. Quite often, immoral things are legal and moral things are illegal.

            Saying something is bad because it’s illegal is an incredibly simplistic pov.

                I’m not arguing morality.

                You absolutely are. Your very fist sentence was “Invasion of privacy and illegal surveillance isn’t okay just because it’s your side that’s doing it.”

                I’m arguing legality.

                Not a single person has argued that it was legal, and all of your response are about how it’s ‘wrong’ or how we are ‘hypocrites’.

                People can’t cry foul when it’s done to them and then demand it be done to others.

                It’s already being done to us, and we have already cried foul, and people like you don’t give a single solitary fuck- so why in the hell would we care about what you think?

                You are defending the Nazis from the Nazi fund raiser. You don’t want them to be exposed.

                “Woke shit” and “Nazi shit” are not comparable.

                You’re conflating “illegal” with “just” or “the right thing to do”. Those are two different attributes. Something can be legal and horrifying. Something can be illegal and just.

                So this part:

                It’s not illegal to be “woke” or whatever the fuck MAGA is calling people, and it’s not illegal to follow dumb Nazi shit. Therefore, NEITHER should be illegally survived.

                Doesn’t work. It’s not a question of if it’s illegal. That is largely irrelevant. The proposed action of “we should find out who these Nazis are” may be illegal, but that’s irrelevant. Unimportant.

                Nazis are a threat to everyone and should not be tolerated.

                You’re giving very lawful-neutral vibes, but I wouldn’t be surprised if you were lawful-evil.

                You can make an argument that all laws should apply to everyone equally all the time, but that’s not how the world works right now, neither in practice nor theory, but you also should consider the “paradox of tolerance” problem. It is not a good idea to let Nazis just go around doing Nazi stuff.

        Usually I’d agree, but when you’re talking about literal Nazis, then that goes out the window. They are a cancer to civilized society, and we should be aware of who they are. They’re malignant fucking tumors.

                eat shit dude. the fascists aren’t playing by the rules and they’re raping the fuck out of democracy because of it. at what point are you going to wake up and see there is no honor in this fight worth keeping?
