Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

[Dolerman]

Yeah we've had actual communists in this thread before. Have we had Nazis yet? They're all over /pol/ right now but I'm not sure if they've spread yet.

(What ever happened to the communist guys anyway?)

@Kratesis

Nazi is a bit too specific weve had 2 white nationalists . Only one out of the closet communist though.

There are no Nazi's here because they're all stuck in the 1940's
Ooooohhhhh!!!!

@Silver Carrot

I personally try to use as much restraint as possible when using that term, there are definitely neo-nazis poking around here and there, but the vast majority of racists today are alt right identitarians (white nationalists) and its different enough to warrant its own label.

These are some of the quotes pulled from the two white nationalists in this thread.

, yes, CD Projekt is more talented than BioWare because it's Whiter and more male.

Not really. My quote for such occurrences is "once you go black we don't want you back." Might be racist, I don't care.

CD Projekt more or less tell women and brown people to go fuck themselves if they don't have the talent to make a good game, and their priorities show in the quality of their product.

If I don't want brown people in Belarus it's my right.

Now while there are some right wingers in this thread who will swear to the death that this is just a meme or whatever, calmer heads like @The Harbinger of Ferocity will tell you that regardless of political alignment these comments are indeed racist.

But I still think calling them Nazis is a stretch, so I stick to the WN label, because the individuals are harmless for the most part.

@Dynamo Frokane

alt-right racists can be alt-right racists without torchlit processions, holding actual swastika flags, and holding up signs with anti-Semitic slogans. That's a Nazi.

@Silver Carrot

I disagree, there are plenty of racists, such as the KKK who arent Nazis.

Nazis are violent and genocidal. Alt-Righters are internet dwelling ex libertarians.

@Dynamo Frokane

Those Hutu sure are some Nazi bastards...

Seriously though, can we go back to the good old days where people who self-identified as Nazi's were Nazis, people who self identified as KKK were Klansmen, and people who were racist assholes were just racist assholes? Calling every PoS a Nazi just alienates moderates who realize the absurdity of it all.

@Dynamo Frokane

Um, yes. What?

You literally said 'I disagree' and then agreed with me. Unless you misread my post.

[Andreyich]

Strange, it seems your response in this post says otherwise. Either you're shitting on anarchists, implying Puigdemont and/or the MPs are anarchists, both, or neither. Which is it?

>still not reading

I've already repeated my point twice dude, also your link doesn't work for me but I doubt this is a surprise to you when your six bazillion iq makes you not need pathetic things like "points" and "reading what the other wrote."

From the article I linked earlier: "[Joan Tardà] added that the response of the Catalonian government had been “sharp and resounding” but said that those who “crave” violence “are going to stay with that desire”."

Calling vandalism symbolic is a form of apologism? How do you figure that?

yes, because you're brushing aside the importance of it, for vandalism is very much material. Additionally, you're carefully omitting the part regarding not the lass blaming tourists for such things.

It seems you're not being consistent about which group you're referring to

nope, I'm perfectly consistent in who I'm referring to.

When I said "democratic separatists", I was referring to Puigdemont and the Parliament

nice dude

I have a lot of political opinions but they're generally not welcome in the circles I frequent because I'm a game loving, anime loving nerd who's also a social democrat and a feminist XD

@Silver Carrot

Down with anime! @POOHEAD189

Seriously though it is good to have you.

@Silver Carrot

If only.

@Silver CarrotIt's good to see a new face! Run while you can.

[mdk]

Nazis are violent and genocidal.

@Dynamo Frokane

Nazis were like an entire government. Nazis were so many things, and if you run down the list you can point as many fingers as you want in any direction. Book-burners, thought police, free-speech-hating socialist propagandizers? THE LEFT IS LITERALLY NAZIS! Racists, warmongers, nationalists, ideologues? THE RIGHT IS LITERALLY NAZIS!

The tragedy of modern political discourse is that terms like racist, nazi, "war on _____," they've all lost their meaning entirely. We've traded in all the lessons we might've learned from humanity's past failures in a nearsighted drunken lunge for a congressional district or two. We've so completely deflated these huge moral imperatives that we have to invent new words towards which to ascribe our loathing. We are stupid sometimes.

But as long as we have role models like Bill Cosby Ben Affleck Lena Dunham Brian Williams Bill O'Rielly Eminem to guide the next generation, I know we'll come out of this just fine.

When a nation of immigrants who stole a country complain about immigrants trying to steal 'their' country.

*memesnip*

@Dynamo Frokane

it's almost as though strong borders and meaningful immigration control could've preserved their whole culture and way of life. *shrug*

[POOHEAD189]

You do know actual Nazis marched in Charleston, right?

I heard they were actually fine people.

I too watch Fox News.

@POOHEAD189

Yeah. And my first reaction, on hearing that for the first time, was to make gigantic mental air-quotes around the word "Nazi" because I shit you not every single republican presidential candidate since Reagan has been called a Nazi (including the on-again-off-again RINO BFF John McCain). The fact that you have to clarify "ACTUAL nazi" is kind of my whole point. Chicken little, boy-who-cried-wolf, take your pick, we've beaten these words to death.

[Penny]

I imagine Nazi fatigue must be a real problem. Given the actual Nazis and all.

@mdk

I dont know about borders, (considering they didn't have a central government) but meaningful immigration as in, don't invite so many of your people here, give us all smallpox and start killing and torturing people who don't convert to Christianity, dont go around looking for gold that isnt here and killing local tribes when you cant find it, yeah the immigration could have been a tad more meaningful.

@mdk You've mentioned you go off on unrelated tangents when addressing me, so I'll ignore your last 2 paragraphs. But yeah, the Nazis were a lot of things, most notably, genocidal, hateful and violent. I have said nothing factually incorrect, so it seems you are arguing with another invisible voodoo doll again, its making you look a little paranoid my dude.

@Vilageidiotx You've got shit to do as far as looking at memes and pretending to be busy. Also I like your new sig.
