Bets he still hasn’t, and won’t read those articles about the nazis threatening the synagogue. They’re too opposed to his right wing mindset.
… Alex?
Why you think that’s some kind of “gotcha” I have no idea. Yes, Nazis are anti-semitic hate-filled violent evil thugs. I really don’t understand why you think that thinking and saying that “antifa” leftists are also hate-filled violent evil thugs (who, by the way, are also quite often anti-semitic) somehow negates the first statement.
No they weren’t. Why didn’t you address what I wrote? Perhaps you’re just a moral relativist, unwilling to judge people based on their words and actions except in the most superficial way?
Article here by a Guardian reporter who was at the scene:
I was in Charlottesville. Trump was wrong about violence on the left | Jason Wilson | The Guardian
Yes, they were.
And I already posted the tweet by the NYT reporter:
“The hard left seemed as hate-filled as alt-right. I saw club-wielding “antifa” beating white nationalists being led out of the park”
Okay, so you’re a coward afraid of actually engaging ideas, since I wrote a longer opinion in an effort to engage you, and you ignored it in favor of childish contradiction.
Let me put it in terms of your neighborhood.
ISIS is battling Hizbullah. If I say that Hisbullah are evil scum terrorists - does that mean I am “aligning myself” with ISIS?
Shows how much you know.
Here’s the thing: For most normal people, hating Nazis is a good thing. Being hate-filled toward white supremacists that are screaming anti-Semitic chants is acceptable. Having hatred in your heart toward members of the KKK who are espousing racial cleansing of our country is fucking noble. Physically pushing back against terrorists who threaten the well-being of American citizens is fucking heroic.
Then there are trolls like you. Pathetic individuals in real life, so you find meaning for yourself in an anonymous online existence where you play the part of a shitbird. Actually saying people fighting against racism, that white supremacy and terrorism are as bad as the racists, white supremacists and terrorists themselves.
If these were Arab Americans, waving the ISIS flag in Virginia, driving a car into a crowd of peaceful demonstrators and killing a young woman, yelling angrily about blood and soil and Christians and whites, and there were angry counter-protesters-- some of them itching to get physical-- I’m pretty sure your president wouldn’t be so quick to say “many sides were acting poorly.”
These white supremacists/Nazis/KKK fucks are just as dangerous to our nation as ISIS. Probably moreso because they’re actually here, organized and have the Big Orange Yam’s approval to carry on.

If you think I am “aligned with these people” you’re a bigger moron than I thought.

Have you never heard the expression “if you ain’t wid me, you agin me”. If you aren’t one of them they will use your ass and break your soul.
The people resisting white supremacy and nazi nuts are not thugs. I know you know that, but being a contrary, lonely person you won’t admit it. Getting people riled up is the only way you know to communicate. Poor thing.
Proof that quisling, cowardly and stupid is a way to go through life after all.
Because they are all Quislings. Cowards and traitors.
I heard the same thing. They had already quit, but Resident Chump never loses and is never rejected, so he “fired them” after they quit, so he would look tough to his Nazi fanboys.
I think you read that wrong. They all condemned what Trump said, they just didn’t name Trump. Basically all of them, from what I have been reading, straight out said that Racism and White Supremacists have no place in our society.
The New York Times also reports it this way. Several of the members of the councils started gathering consensus around a mass exodus Tuesday night. A conference call Wednesday morning sealed the deal. When one of the members passed word of the walkout to Trump, he tweeted that he was disbanding the councils.
A Republican who has lost the support of corporate America. That’s not something I expected to see.
If it’s any comfort, he’s hardly a republican. Someone just needs to tell the Republicans.
Faux News invites a Liberal and a Conservative to discuss Confederate statues. (Then Trump does his dipshit nazi sympathy ad lib news conference.) Both guests end up in tears criticizing our shitbag President and his lack of basic human decency.
On Fox News, no less. Amazing with their careful censorship of the news, they allowed such a thing to air.
