Naw, I doubt this as well.
Here in is why Hilary and Demos lost, and if especially the Demos can't grasp that, they WILL lose again.
Oh my fucking God.
Of all the places to whip this shit out.
Naw, I doubt this as well.

You truly believe that there are something like 50 million white supremacists out there who want to make this an all white county and openly support facism and the kkk?
Naw, I doubt this as well.

Look guys, we just have to accept that it's not all that deplorable to run over anti-Nazis and we'll totally win next time!
Thanks for the advice!
It's not the advice given. Look what happened in the public, hell, on here. Every thread dealing with republicans during that time people referred to them as dumb, ignorant, uneducated masses. I said this was unacceptable, this animal needs to be put down, not locked up. I do have two degrees. And the only people I cannot stand are scumbags like this, or those property damaging and looting scum from other protests. So yeah, if that stance and mindset doesn't change, and they don't target the normal, the demos will lose again.

The taking of THINGS is just as deplorable as the taking of a life. You heard it here, folks!It's not the advice given. Look what happened in the public, hell, on here.

If there's any justice in the world the other people in that photo of the murderer going around from the rally are going to face some serious problems when everyone sees who they are.

J-Rzez posted some ridiculous shit? I have to say I am quite shocked.Man.
Some of y'all got issues if this is where your mind jumps too.
3 people dead "BUT HER EMAILS THO"

The way media is reporting on this is really disturbing if you haven't seen the footage. "Chaotic scene" "car crash" "car kills protestors" etc after Fields was identified
Man.

People. Are. Dead.
The hell.

They think they're good people, it's not easy for them to see the truth.
One thing I've noticed is that this particular part of white America seem to conflate being nice with being decent. They're all smiles and unfaltering politeness on the surface, and they think that alone makes them good people. Regardless of how horrid their views on anything else are.
It's astonishing really.

Like you actually give a fuck what the Dems do.
You sure do spend a lot of time and effort defending Trump supporters. Says a lot after shit like this that your first priority is going after Dems for being too mean.
He probably missed that while preparing his #NotAllCops routine for the next police brutality thread.
Are you insinuating that burglary and homicide are equally as bad?
Was it OK for the other poster to imply that everyone who voted for Trump is "represented" by this individual? It's that mindset that really has to go. I already said what I believe should happen to this individual. But once again someone lumped an entire group of people as racists basically.
As far as Cruz's statement, don't trust the guy. What needs to happen is all, and I mean ALL groups regardless of side needs to be targeted, then one can believe.

Two degrees and yet not one of them was able to pull you from the pit of ignorance.
Yes.You truly believe that there are something like 50 million white supremacists out there who want to make this an all white county and openly support facism and the kkk?

Yes.
I say they should torture this motherfucker and his family for the next couple of years. That's what the orange fuckhead says we should do to anyone who might be a terrorist after all.
I don't think it is disturbing. It is an editorial slant, for sure. There are at least three rationales for this: 1. They are racist and want to protect the racist, 2. They don't want to offend the racists, and 3. They don't want to stoke the flames of tribalism.
The last one seems most likely and, if this thread is anything to go by, is a very worthwhile thing to do. The driver hasn't had his day in court and some posters are calling out his mother and are saying that the driver is emblamatic of all Trump voters. This tribalism is dangerous. This Manichean thinking is why your political culture is as toxic as it is and is exactly the kind of thinking needed to internally justify running people over with a car.
The US is better than that. If the news is avoiding language that could enflame already highly partisan thinking, that's a good thing.

Wrong. The first priority I stated before the other comment I didn't agree upon was this animal needs to be eradicated, not locked up, for obvious reasons stated. Nice try.
Everyone that voted for Donald Trump either didn't see this coming and is fucking stupid or saw it coming and didn't care.Naw, he doesn't represent everyone who voted for Trump.
You truly believe that there are something like 50 million white supremacists out there who want to make this an all white county and openly support facism and the kkk?
You summed this up nicely. I had so much too look forward to and enjoy this weekend and this has just fucking completely ruined it.I've spent the past 3 hours trying to summarize my feelings about Charlottesville but I can't.
All the same emotions of anger, defeat, frustration, empathy, anger at others for their lack of empathy, etc. that I felt while watching Ferguson go down are back, and exacerbated.
Today the President of the United States of America could not call a spade a spade. The dog whistle of all dog whistles. Terrorism is a term exclusively for colored perpetrators now, apparently. We have to consider both sides, they say, in perhaps the least ambiguous act of domestic terrorism, hate speech, and prejudice in the new millennium. It's 2017. Donald Trump is the President of the United States. There's a white supremacist, ethnocentrist, violent rally going on with a side of domestic terrorism that getting international attention and the response from authorities relative to Ferguson is miniscule.
I'm not saying anything new either, and that's the really scary part. There is a progressive development, radicalization, and galvanization of white supremacy movements going on that have been energized by Trump. This isn't the last we've seen of it, and frankly, the smartest minds in the world from the social to political scientists don't know what to do and are scrambling to figure it out while they continue to bubble, murder, and oppress according to a dogmatic and self-righteous view of the world.
Humans' capacity for harm hasn't been this salient in the west for a while, but now we're getting reacquainted once again, and it is feeling uncomfortably familiar uncomfortably quickly. Honestly, shit like this really challenges my beliefs in concepts like universal human empathy, critical thinking ability, and conscience. I don't personally believe in inherently bad people, but if there's an argument for it, today's events are a damn good one and have me questioning everything that I think I know.
IDK even know if this is the right thread for this but the car stuff cemented it for me.
In some ways, I fear that in the same way that the gun debate ended with Sandy Hook, the BLM debate may have ended at Ferguson. Or, hell, the coloured lives matter debate may have ended decades to centuries before that.

Why?
Pretty much
How so?
There was literally a popular [Bud Light?] commercial recently that implied exactly what this graphic is mocking. It was showing how people with "opposite" viewpoints should be able to find common ground. It showed a gay person meeting a person who thought that gay people should be denied certain civil rights. Or something to that effect.
Where is the middle of that spectrum?
No it is the exact argument moderates make when discussing white nationalist.
Anyone who suggests compromise with nazis is a piece of shit.
The approach of moderates continues to suggest that both sides are bringing equally valid arguments to the table.
There is nothing about this rally, about this movement, about any of the garbage that Trump or any of his cronies have championed that can be labeled as valid.
I mean I guess it is, but maybe it's because I'm not in America? I can't fanthom moderates not being pro civil rights in Canada.
Sorry for not replying individually, but this should cover the responses above. Here's my sense of things:You say that, but there's a long-winded post in my Facebook feed right now about how sad it is that we can no longer talk out our differences and that identity politics is a poison. From a liberal too.

Here's a photo of @Millennial_Matt with Trump and carrying a burning torch in Charlottesville. This isn't complicated.
