Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

Is funny how Wootmaster exposed that guy but coming from a pedo he is and causing drama and his followers are dumb as to rock

If you don’t want your Conservative name be smeared, then I suggest start outing the actual Facists from your circle.

This “label” has sent dozens of people (at least) to the hospital and caused millions in property damage. Maybe it’s about time we scrutinize and ostracize people who give themselves that “label” just as we scrutinize and ostracize those who give themselves the label “fascist.”  
Though even if you looked at things a little more objectively you’d be late to the punch bowl. https://archive.is/MNdaX

The guy who got beaten up was the aggressor in this story and he wasn’t even hurt that badly. How is that against the morals in MLP?
 
Not sure what the context of his white people tweet is, but if his anti-trans rights comment was real, I really don’t give too much of a shit about him being beaten up. Hopefully this makes him reevaluate his own morals.

@UserAccount  
This is fairly relevant. https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/1693001-new-guy

The KKK has never been labeled a terrorist organization. Neither have the Neo Nazis that killed a women in Charlottesville. Labeling them as a terrorist group gives the police the right to take away people’s freedom of speech and arrest anyone they don’t like just by saying “they were Antifa.”

@Background Pony #FE3C  
I thought that comic was stupid when I saw it, but it’s also not relevant. I just said that the guy who was beaten up was the one coming after them with the sword. This would be like if PewDiePie beat the shit out of the person who tried to rob his house.

@Background Pony #FE3C  
And how many people has it killed?

@UserAccount  
The KKK became largely dormant decades before domestic terror became a common watchword. They’re at least half informants by now and they don’t anything anymore, and if you did you can bet they would be cracked down on harder than you can believe. And again, you bring up Charlottesville as if the entire world revolves around it. Antifa has been involved in scores of protests causing streetfights and damaging property. Look at what they did in Berkeley when someone they didn’t like dared to give a speech. I’m looking at the tiger in this room and you’re busy swatting at a mosquito.  
It’s also ironic you say that when Antifa explicitly wants to deny others their freedom of speech through violence. It’s equivalent to claiming arresting a criminal denies him his freedom and is therefore unconscionable. These are hoodlums who harass and beat anyone they single out yet they’ve been allowed to roam free as political shocktroops. They’re terrorists.

@Background Pony #FE3C  
They. Have. Never. Killed. A. Single. Fucking. Person. They aren’t terrorists!!!

@Background Pony #FE3C  
So you’re saying Antifa should labeled as terrorists, but the KKK and other Neo Nazi groups shouldn’t?

@UserAccount  
Yes, they have, actually. The Dayton, Ohio shooter who killed nine people identified himself with Antifa. Willem van Spronsen attacked an immigrant holding center in Washington but fortunately the only person he killed was himself.  
But you’re exercising extreme troll logic here, claiming that as long as no one dies it’s not political terror. You can be an anti-batman in that you send reporters, conservative activist, or just ordinary bystanders to the hospital, but as long as no one is put into the ground then it’s all okay. Also, we don’t know how many people die during all these riots and who kills them specifically, but as Antifa are part of it they deserve some of the blame.

@Background Pony #FE3C  
There was no link between that attack and the guy’s support for Antifa. It’s like saying Nintendo is a terrorist organization because he once played a Mario game.
 
Antifa is not an organization of any kind, so it most certainly can not be a terrorist organization. Saying that it is is an attack on freedom of speech. The pigs will use this as an excuse to take away anyone they want’s first amendment rights, because “they were Antifa.”

In the same day, Trump’s staff accused Zimbabwe of all places to be stirring unrest, and called the Iranian regime a “Marxist theocracy”.
 
It’s truly amazing, America is undergoing all signs of a crumbling empire in fast-forward to a degree that actually surpasses parody, yet most Americans seem to be stuck on blaming China, which, incidentally, is another such sign. The biggest economic collapse in history, a bona-fide humanitarian disaster in the form of unchecked coronavirus spread, and now, civil discontent bottled up for a decade is blowing off, and it seems Americans expect it all to be over before the year ends. If this was a historical fiction story on FF.net it would get removed for containing every cliche known to man.

@OneMoreAnonymous  
It’s an Empire that is crumbling.

@NitroFury  
Argent (whom I’ve linked previously, he has good videos on this) believes that the decline of America may lead either to a Singapore (government becomes more technocratic and authoritarian to smooth over differences within the population), a Hawaii (less economically productive but more peaceful and non-interventionist), or a Brazil (increasing crime and corruption). One happy side effect for the rest of the world will be a long-awaited withdrawal of military assets back to within national borders; perhaps we’ll see more autonomy or even independence for the states.
 
The idea that the West is declining is hardly a new one though I keep seeing new predictions as to where we’ll wind up. In any case, the nightmare of the 1960s has come home to roost…

@NitroFury  
Yeah but it all has been so heavy-handed, hasn’t it? It has me literally questioning reality sometimes. I know comparisons to pop culture are tired, but the situation really is crazier than fiction. Case in point, Trump losing whatever few marbles he had: https://twitter.com/oliverdarcy/status/1267491105727295490

@OneMoreAnonymous  
The world is a circus and the people with blue checkmarks are the ringmasters. Why does anyone use Twitter nowadays?

@Background Pony #FE3C  
I use Twitter to follow and retweet silly things like a sleepy puppy flopping over, or artists sharing their work. It’s not always doom and gloom unless you go looking for…but not it is all doom and gloom and you know what? I don’t blame it. Attention needs to be spread. The country will be in a state of unrest until things change. The Civil Rights movement, Stonewall…all these people before us trying to move the country into a better place and we haven’t learned shit 50+ years on.
 
 
On a somewhat related note what are the chances of the White House burning the fuck down?

@Background Pony #FE3C  
I agree, social media has become a genuinely harmful thing, a risk not just to one’s personal mental health but also a possible hazard to social cohesion itself, because it’s stuffed full of bots and shills clogging them with all types of abominable notions. And the fact that the most powerful man in the world is addicted to it is an ill omen.

@Background Pony #FE3C  
Here’s a non-Twitter link to the same audio. Doesn’t get more primary-sourcey than “the President’s own words”.

I’m now seeing people go after George Floyd’s brother Terrance, just because he said that he doesn’t condone the rioting happening and that his brother wouldn’t have wanted this to happen.
 
The guy just lost his brother and his city has descended into anarchy, give the poor guy a break you assholes.

@Background Pony #1F81  
It’s impossible to contain such things. The protesters might lash out, and the powers that be might false-flag. The anonimity the internet provides is doomed to end in the near future because of the sheer abuse it has been taking.
