Poor Helwani

[Yossarian]

You're trying to avoid answering, so I will ask you another direct question. Were you or Helwani equally disgusted when Trump didn't call out the protesters who carried these following flags in 2017:

Alternative question: Did you, Helwani or the rest of the media got disgusted when Clinton, Obama and Sanders didn't call these people out for carrying symbols of genocide?

Just FYI, communism is responsible for far many more deaths than nazis, but Hollywood doesn't make a movie about that every year since the 40s, so I guess it is ok to be a commie.

Good point. I think we all stand together in disgust of these type of regimes that have caused nothing but death and destruction to people of certain ethnicities and cultural groups. But there's a lot of virtue signaling going on, and not just that, being picky at doing so. Any type of terrorism, violence, and fanaticism should be judged and denounced equally, not just the ones that oppose one's own view.

Put these nazi and antifa guys, who like confrontation and violence so much, who hate discussion and the exchange of values, put them on an island for a week or so, may the lord of the flies sort them out.

Hitler hated communists.

You sir, are a Nazi.

Good comment also. Although sarcastic in nature, it does make the point that we over simplify the blame game. It is common sense that these nazi wannabes should be encouraged to seek other ways, or maybe a few need to receive knees in the face. But we cannot answer to these people by becoming them.

Nazis aren't socialists nor Democrats, no matter what the alt-right may say

It appears I was wrong. Hitler was not a socialist. He only called himself one. As this article clarifies, the word national is the key to Hitler's party name, not socialist.

American socialists are the good kind.

Thank goodness Newsweek is here to clear that up for everyone.

Trump clearly & repeatedly condemned the bigotry & violence in Charlottesville. He clearly & repeatedly condemned Nazi and white supremacist groups. So what exactly is Helwani so disgusted by? Trump calling Antifa out for their role in the violence that occurred?

did you miss the day after? all the major news sites are covering it, condemning him after he showed his true colours.

I don't support that narrative ofc because I'm a Pro-Trump Brit, but it would appear he's caused outrage across the world.

 

[Mix6APlix]

Because most people are fucking idiots.

Thanks Obama.

The nazi being the bad guy wasn't enough. The media have managed to make Trump the bad guy.

 

[Yossarian]

Ariels jewish, and you thought he'd say nothing about a people rallying with fucking nazi flags in 2017 America.

Poor helwani? More like Poor America.

By the way, I always wonder what kind of fucked up do you have to be to be parading around like that. That's some hardcore shit right there. We like to believe that stuff is of the past, and here it is, alive and kicking. Mind bottling.

The sad thing is, the incessant spam of demands to disavow the right, will only cause him to embrace them.

In the end, he will realize that nothing he says will ever be good enough and so, he will stop trying.

And when we all get that polarized, we all lose.

I always thought it was a UGism. I guess we don't do that around here. My apoligies to the community and their families and their facebrook friends. I will pink myself, be back in 5.

Nah, I don't use auto correct, hence my spelling errors.

Don't get me wrong, I know these people exist. Would never deny that.

But I did see an antifa got caught, on camera, bringing a nazi sign and doing a Roman salute, pretending to be a right-winger.

What a weird world.

It's the fact that you can't criticize Antifa without being considered a Nazi yourself, that bugs me. That we should rid ourselves of Nazi's should be common snese, but I do not wish to replace them with the next radical and violent group that wants to control how you think, and that is constantly on the lookout for attacks on those who disagree.

For fucks sake, all everyone does lately is bitch about cultural / political violence and differences.

If you don't have anything nice to say shut your fucking mouth.

 

[soundoff71]

As much as I love this place for MMA, the fact that so many Trump lovers minimize his behavior & his attitudes towards white supremacy grosses me out. No, I'm interested in 'debating' any fallacies, bullshit frames, or getting trapped in any idiotic circular arguments. Anyone who tries that shit will get blocked. I come here for MMA, comics, & that's pretty much it.

But the Trump thing? It's creepy & gross, & I hope I'm not the only one who thinks it.

Normally I ignore or laugh about all the grandstanding by both sides that goes on here but lately it's become unavoidable. It's not really funny as much as sickening that no one is willing to find common ground.

 

[Yossarian]

What is exactly the Trump thing, maybe I've missed something as I have chosen to ignore the news. Did he not speak out against the Nazi's? Did he praise the Nazi's? Just so I am on the right page lol.

This. It has become a reality. Not only on the internet, but everywhere. It's the times we live in now.

Depending on who you ask.. he did both or he did neither.

The Trump thing is bye @Yossarian. Nice knowing you.
