Strategic outreach?


Feb 16, 2021, 12:44 PM

Have you seen the ABCNews Special on White Supremacy?


Feb 16, 2021, 12:53 PM

It blamed the riots associated with the BLM protests on white supremacy. And at the end - it said that white supremists current goal was to infiltrate law enforcement.

This guy is just towing the company line. You'll notice that you don't see anything about what he said anywhere other than Fox News.

Whatever. More strawmen these days than McDonald's has straws.

Didn't see the special.

And can't comment on the content.

But I can tell you that infiltrating law enforcement actually has been a pretty common tactic of white supremacists over history and in several nations. That's not really shocking.

Which historical record are you referencing?

I assume it's Rage Against the Machine's first album, but I just wanted to confirm.

I once did a ridealong with a cop who went on a little rant about how police needed more authority over suspects while Killing in the Name came on his radio. Beautiful timing for my storytelling.

Feb 16, 2021, 4:13 PM

but maybe what he is trying to highlight is that what used to rightfully be considered nutty has become more mainstream than anyone would like to admit. If this is the kind of family the guy has to deal with, then I honestly feel for him.

Hyperreligiosity genuinely frightens me. Anyone attributing things to demons, angels, gods or spirits, is such clear cut irrational thinking, and I struggle because it's not possible to reconcile rational thought to irrational beliefs.

Roman Legionnaires were afraid to sail across the English channel because Oceanus, the god of the all-encompassing river surrounding the known land mass, couldn't be trusted. I can't find much difference between this and believing a god wants you to vote republican.

Re: Strategic outreach?

Please allow me to, once again, argue for the middle.

It seems that some liberals see white supremacy & racism everywhere. And it seems that some conservatives seem to believe that neither problem exists. Perhaps we, as reasonable Americans, could minimize the extremes and focus on finding ways to address the racial problems that inarguably exists within our country.

Maybe we could let such an extreme story roll off of our backs and bring to light the examples that we really need to work on. Maybe we could ALL admit that we ALL have racial & ethnic prejudices in our hearts - then maybe we could use our heads to work out our racial prejudices and treat ALL Americans rationally and equitably. I don't know how many steps there are to us becoming a racially equitable country, but let's each start with the one that is right in front of us.

Could you name the Dems who refused to condemn violence ? I looked for them, but I couldn't find any.

T3

On many levels you seem like a good guy - the kind I could have a cold beer with as long as we kept the conversation of football. So please allow me to point out a couple of things - and I mean this to be in the friendliest of terms.

1. The New York Post is a tabloid that does not hesitate to sensationalize and misrepresent the facts to increase circulation. You will notice that they about halfway down the attached chart as far as accurate reliability goes.

2. This stuff is sooo easy to investigate. All I did was google "Biden denounces violence" and I got 10 different articles fact checking your claim - all of them debunking it - with evidence.

Here is the first one:

https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-biden-condemn-violence/fact-check-joe-biden-has-condemned-violent-protests-in-the-last-three-months-idUSKBN25V2O1


Here are the rest:

https://www.google.com/search?q=biden+denounces+violence&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS935US935&oq=biden+denounces+violence&aqs=chrome..69i57.8543j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

NC,

I wonder how many of our differences rest on similarly shaky supporting evidence.

Are you kidding? Really you live in the liberal bubble.

NC Gov Cooper is one that DID NOT CONDEMN the riots in downtown Raleigh. In fact, he was closer to condoning than condemning.
