I'm not saying counter protesting what wrong, morally speaking of course. I just don't think it's the smartest move to reach the ends we want.
Morally admirable, tactically inefficient.

    Someone shared this earlier. Comments are bananas, people are praising the people in khakis and white polos.

    https://altright.com/2017/05/15/alt-...arlottesville/

    Johnny Fascismo
    The rally this weekend was a success and an incredibly good look. I enjoyed watching the streams on Red Ice. I liked the white and khaki uniform and white dresses for the women. Less intimidating than the all black uniforms worn at Pikeville a couple weeks earlier. Good turn out. Even saw a couple Fasces flags. Saluto Romano!

    Cookie Rus
    The women in their dresses were a huge addition to the already excellent optics of the gathering. Great job ladies.

    Better Dead
    It also draw my attention. I had not seen women dressed properly in public gatherings in years.

    Squirrely McShitty
    I like the all black military-style garb better. It makes me feel more powerful and and let's me imagine I am one of the first Nazi supporters, dreaming about the Kristallnacht to come!

    Johnny Fascismo
    That look definently has its place. A rally against taking down confederate statues could bring a lot of sympathetic normies closer to our cause, so its important to not scare them off.

    Squirrely McShitty
    Oh, ya, that makes sense. Make 'em think we are all normal and stuff, like just concerned citizens or something. Then once we get them involved, that's when we spring the crazy on them. And then they are like "Woah" and we are like "Oh ya" and they are like "I cant" and we are like "you already did" and they are like "I feel dirty now" and we are like "That means you are one of us now. Here, have a frog."

    Kind of like if you go out partying and get drunk with your friend Bubbles and you both go back to your place and pass out and in the morning you wake up and are hung over and bleeding out your ass and you look at Bubbles and he is just smiling and nodding and you know that you might as well be gay now, even though you got tricked into being gay. Something like that?

    I was talking about modern US political discourse. Wasn't talking about white supremacists.

    This is the THIRD time white supremacy people have invaded my town in the last 3 months. So yeah, I don't think ignoring them is gonna work.
    Sorry you are seeing this going down in your backyard. It's probably not going to stop and it has less to do with monuments being taken down and more to do with Cville being targeted by white nationals because the city council has passed some reparations-like resolutions to try to improve the economic life of non-whites there. Some people are very opposed to the idea that slavery still has ramifications for people today.

    And a non-violent counter protest is exactly the right thing to combat evil. "If the counter protesters had stayed home they wouldn't get hit by cars" is a bunch of horse shit just like "if she didn't want to get gang raped she shouldn't wear a tight shirt". And I'm not talking about the antifa morons, far left terrorists are no better than far right terrorists. But the vast majority of the anti white supremacy protesters were assembled peacefully when they were run down. Never let the Nazis have the street without ideological opposition.

    To the bold: Do you think indentured servitude still has ramifications today?

    Second: I've seen this brought up multiple times, and it's the only reason why I'm bringing it up, but why are we comparing protesting with rape? Seems unnecessarily hyperbolic.

    Weak analogy here. No, protesting is not like wearing a tight shirt.

    I'm not sure I agree with this stance, but there is the argument that since Nazism is predicated on making other people scared, the more you let them organize and the stronger they become, the more dangerous they grow.

    They live to play the martyr card, so if you ignore them, they'll use that as evidence that they're right. "See? They don't pay attention to us! We have to be more aggressive!"

    I think that's why many people feel it's irresponsible to just ignore Trump and the wave of Nazism that he's emboldened.

    I'm not sure I've fully formulated my thoughts either way, but I am stridently anti-neo-Nazi.

    The Virginia governor gave the speech our President should have. In a year full of disappointments from him, yesterday may have been the worst. His poll numbers are pretty low, though, so he can't lose part of his base by condemning them.

    Yeah there's no proper rationale that makes the ones who were hit by a fucking car out to be the bad guys or at fault in any way.

    Yeah, anybody involved who did not try to diffuse the situation should be ashamed of themselves. As Americans and as human beings. They are not revolutionaries.

    Count me in as one of the people who think counter-protesting stuff like this is incredibly important. As someone said about, if these people are allowed to rally without incident, the larger and more effective the rallies will become

    Bad logic. At the end of the day they are still pieces of shit human beings. Nothing is going to "help" them in the eyes of anyone with a brain. I'm trying to think of an example but this IS this example. Like if I was explaining a similar situation to someone else I'd say " this would be like saying a white supremacist being killed helps the public perception of white supremacists because now they are the victims".

    Trump is suck a weak idiot.

    He condemns it on many sides? There's just two sides bro. Two is a both, not a many.

    And pick a side loser. I thought you were supposed to have balls.

    He condemns it on many sides? There's just two sides bro. Two is a both, not a many.

    And pick a side loser. I thought you were supposed to have balls.
    Wait, your problem with Trump is that he wouldn't pick a side?

    I feel like this is sarcasm and I'm missing it.

    It absolutely helps them by giving them more publicity and showing them literally fighting with leftists. It's exactly what they wanted to happen. As usual, the left lets it's heart get in the way of it's head.

    Not sure why you would think that "anyone with brain" makes up a very large part of our society.

    On one level yes. Obviously there's only one side he should be on but him implying both were at fault is completely weak imo.

    If he truely believes these alt right people were justified tho at least come out and say it.

    Who exactly would the white supremacists be scoring points with if they lost a few of their own to violent left protesters? Who sympathizes with white supremacists other than white supremacists? I dont think people are sitting around on the fence about whether or not they hate blacks and jews waiting for one news story to push them over the edge.

    But there goes silly snowflake, SJW, antifa me thinking with my heart again.

    Well yea of course. He's a very weak man with no moral standards and no balls. Also surrounded by idiots but not idiots dumb enough to let him take the side of the fucking Nazis. Publicly at least.
