WOW! Vice Interview with Charlottesville White Supremisist Leader
If you didn't see Vice (on HBO) last night, you MUST VIEW this 3 min clip. It's an interview with one of the Charlottesville Rally Alt-Right leaders talking about the success of their rally. His cold blooded demeanor even after the murdering Alt-Right thug plowed his car through a crowd of non-violent protesters is jaw dropping.
This is President Adolf Trump's America coming to fruition.
Highlights: (check out how he talks with a crooked smile)
- Shows off all the concealed carry guns he wore to the rally.
- Says no one was killed "unjustly".
- Says about the car killer "someone struck his vehicle" and "he saw no way to get away except to hit the gas". "I think it was more than justified."
- Says about future rallies - "more people are gonna die before we are done here."
- Says about the protesters - "these people want violence and the Alt-Right is just meeting market demand."
The Interview clip starts at 19:05 (approx 3 mins)
But the entire video is well worth watching if you have time.

There will always be assholes
Just as there will always be cockroaches, no matter how often you call the exterminator. It's just one of the inconvenient facts of life.
Hopefully, the more they talk and reveal themselves as assholes, the more people will start calling them out as assholes (and the less popular they will be).
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
Calling them an assehole increases their sense of power
Listening to the many interviews on the video one can see the self-satisfaction in any type of negative response. We need to have methods that minimizes their accumulation of power not feeds it or sustains their feeling of self importance.
The Charlottesville event can now be used for years in multiple gathering as inspiration to how they can show their growing power to others.
Unfortunately this is a comment into the void, since I will be away from internet access the rest of the day.
Still yourself, deep water can absorb many disturbances with minimal reaction.

I think that's what it is
A lot of them are people who thrive on being contrary. If they're not getting people pissed at them they feel like they're failing. If everybody is getting along then they must find a way to trigger their hate, especially if it is directed at themselves.
Beware the bullshit factories.
Can't remember who it was, but I
read somewhere that a good analogy for Trump voters in particular but the Klan surely fits better, is the Hells Angels and their knowing they are "losers" in societies eyes - they know they won't ever achieve what we call the "American Dream", they feel alienated and know they are despised, so their answer is to pull the whole smoking mess down to the ground, watching it burn with glee and loving the horrified reaction of "normal" people. They're already social outcasts, so why not go all the way and be fully hated outcasts? The article referenced Hunter S Thompson's book "Hells Angels" while making that point and I think there's a nice comparison there although I will say, I personally have more respect for the Angels than the Klan, but that's just personal preference - the two in so many ways are very much alike, at least in their rhetoric.

@TheOtherMaven Yes exactly.
I hate to see these guys get air time. But when any intelligent human hears them speak, it removes any doubts that they are aholes. Trump clearly will cozy up to any old shit hole just to get a vote.

Othering. I can do that, too. I have not a sympathetic bone
in my body. Still fighting the fight of my father, 40 years later. Anti-Klan. My Hoosier grandfather was likely Klan, as well as Mason. Elwood is still a sundown town. They tolerate the "Texan" migrants who picked tomatoes. That can all be mechanized now.

I would have left the .380 at home. Oh, what am I saying, I would have never bought something so useless in the first place.
As for the rest of it, have you ever seen a video of cops beating the crap out of someone on the ground while yelling "Quit resisting!"? Same thing. There's violence because the other side resisted, so it's their fault.

More idiots.
Not sure whose revenge fantasy protest is more stupid.
Two sides of the same 'violence by the victimized' coin.
No good will come from any of this.
The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?
Congrats, MSM, you're giving them exactly what they want.
Of course, since most of these assholes are comfortable, upper middle class (Read Gentry and their Retainers) and very much in favor of corporations, I understand why you are doing so.
The Nazis pose Zero threat to corporations or property that is in the "Proper" hands. In fact, they'll be the MIC's biggest sponsor, IF they gain political power. Nothing wrong with hedging your bets, after all...
The Media and DNC is doing the best to create another boogieman. The problem is that catering to fear means that there are people you are literally HANDING power. The ability to inflict emotions of fear and hatred upon people is power. Stop giving it to the Nazis.
A man who Fought against them, knows the proper way to respond:

Replace KKK for Nazi
and this is the comment I meant to make on the "Why do we still tolerate the KKK?" Essay.
Idolizing a politician is like believing the stripper really likes you.
Not just this:
For the 3rd day in a row, Russiagate is nowhere to be found on the internet or most of the websites I visit.
Even ToP hasn't written anything about this so that shows how effective the media is in setting the tone in what is to be covered.
This was going nowhere because there were to many articles coming out that totally debunked Russia being the ones who 'hacked' the DNC computers.
The recent articles on this are about the data that shows that the email were leaked not hacked.
Deflate the ego and there's nothing left
Mel Brooks was right. The most serious blow to these fascist pricks is to get the whole nation laughing at them. They'd rather be beat to a pulp by an axe-handle-wielding mob than suffer derision by the public.
In fact, getting some of their comrade's bloody faces in front of a camera is one of their goals at this time.
OK, I saw enough.
And I'm just gonna add and I will take whatever flack I get for it - this looks to me like just one more guy with a bit of an inferiority complex, shall we say? All those phallic symbols he feels the absolute NEED to carry around with him, for what? For the day when someone calls him out on his inadequacy? We have a phrase for that, I won't bother to utter it but I most surely think it.

He has a Napolean complex because his height is smaller than
most men's are, or were you referring to another anatomical deficiency?
Or maybe a bit of both?
Both fit actually.
But its like when a guy has to have the biggest ugliest smoke belching truck on the road... A replacement, to prove something maybe? Sorry, I just couldn't help myself with the way he was so thrilled to be showing the young woman all his weapons. If he had lovingly stroked one then my snark would fit even better.

They are looking for thee incident to ignite a race war
Read this long time ago, but one of the beliefs of American neo-nazis is to create a trigger which will ignite a race war. The triggering event will be violent.
I tweetered that I
believed that, given the chance, at least half the states would secede from the U.S. and join the Confederacy. That, truth be told, 30 years of "political correctness" has barely made a dent in moving attitudes toward African Americans, p.o.c., gay, LGBTQ... in anything remotefully resembling a positive direction.

I'd say it's worse than that.
I think political correctness has been twisted into some of the most effective propaganda among the right. I remember when I used to be on the road a lot and I listened to a lot of AM radio. The Limbaughs of the air would only take a break from wall to wall Clinton hysteria to set up another "political correctness run amuck" strawman. This has to have had an impact because the whole idea of out of control PC thought is so much more pervasive than I remember it being in the 90s. I feel a lot of the brainless contrarianism rampant among the right is reactionary behavior based on decades of this idea that that they are under attack by people less powerful than them.

Or simply totally undeserving.
"Who died and thought These (Trans) asshats deserve more rights?" And, yes, RW media very much responsiible for turning PC into a negative.

We humans are a really messed up species. Nazi boy is just another jackass with a gun. The problem is powerful people are telling him it okay to be one.
