EDIT: More importantly, I'm troubled by how you apparently dismissed out of hand the contradiction of your claim that leftists were using chemical warfare 'again' (?) in Oregon.

I flat out said, Ill trust the cops over journalists running cover for antifa The cops said it directly, I trust them over biased actors. Especially since there were other left wing actors talking about how its ok because they mixed sugar in with it so its not going to harden. ESPECIALLY since the media's "debunk" is the guy selling them, which is bullshit. Hes got literally no way to know once its out of his hands. And yes. "Again" The left tried another chem attack at the innaguration ball using butric acid. An active ingredient in stinkbombs, but on its own can cause blistered skin amongst other issues. EDIT: And, since this is bothering me.. Even if the police are wrong, its still assault. Like, I want to be clear here. I trust the police, but even if they are wrong, Antifa writ large was still commiting assault. Like, at best the alternative here is "Oh yeah they still were barbaric violent assholes, they just didnt intentionally set out to burn people"..

![]() Harrowing photos of brutal assault.
The victim complex is astounding. Anti fascist protesters throw milkshakes on people. Neo-nazis kill people. But both sides are the same, amirite? If neo-nazis were just throwing dairy-based desserts on people, you might have a point, but they actually kill people. Antifa has never killed anyone. Sometimes they punch people and throw stink bombs, and that is definitely assault, and should be prosecuted accordingly, but the false equivalency is ridiculous. And lol at Andy Ngo claiming his brain was hemorrhaging but was appearing for interviews like 2 days later asking for support on Patreon. What a shameless grifter. The right and some parts of the center needs there to be a thuggish left so they can say "both sides" are just as extreme in the Trump era, even though this is demonstrably untrue. I invite anyone reading to do a little digging of their own.

Its really astounding how far out of your way you people go to justify bloodshed. But hey, no use in arguing against evil. I hope you dont choke on it at this point, but thats pretty much inevitable. Yall are just bad people.

If only we could get them this upset over concentration camps.

Edit: In other news, Brian Epstein has been arrested on charges of sex trafficking of minors. He and Trump have been pretty good buddies for decades, running in the same social circles, going to the same parties and events. This is a man Trump praised because he "likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side." It's incredible how hard Trump supporters project flaws onto the left. They fabricate the spurious Pizzagate nonsense, when one of Trumps buddies is an actual child trafficker. One of Trump's more credible accusations of rape (yes, there is more than one) comes from his association with this guy, the incident reportedly occurring at one of Epstein's infamous sex parties. The details are even more lurid. It's not for the faint of heart: https://www.snopes.com/news/2016/06/...-rape-lawsuit/

![]() Doesn't it seem logical that the side that seems really invested in pushing "both sides are the same" type whataboutism would be the worse of the two sides?

A soft-headed child in Congress misspeaks, and you think it's a carte blanche to downplay the Holocaust? You petty little political snots. Recalibrate yourselves back to reality.

![]() This splitting hairs about semantics is really beside the point. Whatever you choose to call it, what's happening at the detention centers is wrong. The dehumanization has already begun.

![]() How dare AoC use the literal definition of a word that has an inflammatory connotation to draw attention to human rights abuses affecting children and people seeking asylum
Conditions that leave folks in the UN shocked https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.tex...hts-chief/amp/ Seriously, what are her priorities right? ![]()

Honestly. I just gave you chuckleheads quotes from Cortez that she was purposefully equating the two as virtually the same. Can you at least agree that she misspoke? Or are you so freakin lockstepped in party rhetoric that you don't have the intelligence and good sense to distance yourself from this senselessness? Tell me Cortez was wrong here. Or tell me she was right, and prepare to receive the well-deserved abuse that usually gets saved for Holocaust deniers. EDIT: Quote:

From the link you posted: "While the story of Auschwitz is complex as it was both a concentration & extermination camp in a context of war & occupation, the 12-years history of development of concentration camps in Nazi Germany is more complicated." (emphasis mine) They acknowledge a distinction between full on extermination camps and concentration camps. They acknowledge that the death camps are preceded by a "12-years history of development". Quote:
FOR THE CHEAP SEATS!!: Concentration Camps are defined as "the mass detention of civilians without trial".

So let's move on from it: Quote:
Rounding up a specific group of people for systematic extermination? That's a different ballgame. They don't link together. They don't compare. This position is as reprehensible as a Holocaust denier's, and I'll tell you why: A Holocaust denier understates the historic atrocity so that he imagines what happened is comparable to lesser, observable things that might still happen today. Your position aggrandizes the lesser, observable things happening today in order to compare them to that historic atrocity - but since we see that these observable things are lesser, it brings down the magnitude of that atrocity. Just because the American centers need improvements does not mean they are on some singular road that leads to Nazi death camps. If you were actually genuous in your dictionary use of "internment camp", then you'd notice the scores of examples of sites that never came close to looking like the Nazi's rendition! That dictionary definition of "concentration camp" isn't even so necessarily a bad situation. But no, it's all hyperbole and false equivocation with ye. How many times have you gentlemen moaned and raged against false equivocation? And now, you can't tell us that it's wrong to have children sleeping crowded on the ground without screaming HOLOCAUST in summary! Let bad things be understood as bad, in and of themselves. Don't play these stupid games. Don't go all Trumptard in your rhetoric. Last edited by BaronGrackle; 07-10-2019 at 08:41 PM.. |

Edit: If you would like, I can also dig up additional evidence that Roosevelt and other American politicians were calling them "concentration camps" after the Executive Order 9066 in March 1942 as well. ![]() This is not downplaying the Holocaust/Shoah and the death camps. It's recognizing our own use of concentration camps in WW2. (We also targeted some German and Italian-American citizens for camps.) Do we commonly associate concentration camps with the Jewish death camps? Yes, because of how utterly horrific that was in the scale of genocide. But Jews, Roma, LGBTQ, Communists, etc. were gathered into concentration camps before the institution of the "Final Solution" and the death camps. AOC is not wrong here. So not calling them concentration camps downplays the use of concentration camps during this time period. Last edited by Genesis; 07-11-2019 at 07:54 AM.. |

![]() It's funny. For the bulk of his life, George Takei would talk about the his experience in Japanese internment camps, or "prison camps" as he would more appropriately specify. Then Cortez shoots off some false equivocation, and all of a sudden he starts calling them concentration camps. https://www.google.com/amp/s/io9.giz...1533358984/amp I guess he doesn't want his own history to get left behind as the new false equivalences get running. Yeah. Don't tell me this isn't a narrative shift. Last edited by BaronGrackle; 07-11-2019 at 10:47 AM.. |
