Even John fucking McCain called them what they are. Nothing will come of it, obviously, and like @littlejohn said they're just going to put their own hoods right back on tomorrow and go about their usual business, but still.

 

John McCain denouncing white supremacy is especially rich when he's spent his entire career voting to carry it out overseas

 

"Racist David Duke"
"Punchable Richard Spencer"

Or maybe he'd call Spencer "Punchahontas"

 

Had a long fun day of people telling me that antifa is as bad as Nazis. Not "you're just calling people you disagree with Nazis!"-nazis... like, people telling me that antifa is as bad as those that they acknowledged were referring to and thought of themselves as Nazis.

 

Comrade Cruz

 

I mean, we all know he was raised by one of Castro's top assassins, Trump told us that himself. Right before Cruz dropped out of the race and endorsed him, but after Trump insulted Cruz's wife's appearance.

 

My friend was trying to tell me how the person that plowed into the crowd today could have done it "by accident" because they were nervous.

You don't fucking slam on the gas, kill someone and injure dozens and then try to back up and get away "by accident".

 

get new friends.

 

Yeah, this has been stressed before. Dude, I'm sure you have reasons to hold on ties with this dude but this a losing battle for you to keep talking to this dude.

 

I literally never use Facebook but for some reason today I felt inspired to post "Electing the dumbest man in America as president just to see what would happen was an interesting experiment but it's clearly failed, can we elect the real one now?" as my status and it's allowed me to weed out a lot of people I apparently should have a long time ago

This is why you choose wisely with social media.

 

Tbf, saying he cannot believe he's seeing nazi salutes isn't direct condemnation, he's probably rubbing his hands with glee.

 

Remember that the person who died was a member of the IWW, and was martyred in the fight for socialism.

 

How the battle of Lewisham helped to halt the rise of Britain’s far right

 

those damn alt-left bernie bros, literally dying for the cause.

 

Yeah good luck with that

 

Some woman running for senate said it was equally their and bernies fault

My head shook off my neck

 

This is the reverse Vince McMahon meme.

"Working class coalition"

nice ok sounds great

"Of Trump and Sanders voters"

ok this is still possibly good, depends on which voters and how and stuff

"Silicon Valley populist"

oh no

"was an adviser to former Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain"

Goodbye

 

Al sharpton had a former white suprem on and it was everything you'd basically think. The reasoning a lot of them fall into it and why, the economy is certainly a large part. That being said, I'm not playing armchair psychologist with nazis and they should still get fked.
