Charlottesville again

Written October 8, 2017 in Facebook

There was another march in Charlottesville by White Nationalists last night. Here are two observations:

1) There was no Antifa or other organized militant counter demonstrators. As a result, the only thing there is to talk about is how idiotic, disgusting and awful the White Nationalists were, in my opinion. This is a good thing. The White Nationalists want nothing more than some unhinged counter protesters to be there and look bad. That is the only way they can look good.

2) Instead of mentioning how awful the White Nationalists were, the so-called President tweeted the following after sending VP Mike Pence to a NFL football game, who promptly left after some payers knelt during the National Anthem, the next day: "I asked @VP Pence to leave stadium if any players kneeled, disrespecting our country. I am proud of him and @SecondLady Karen."

Yes, the so-called President ignores the White Nationalist march but calls out the football players for putting the spotlight on unequal treatment of minorities by law enforcement. We understand, but unfortunately, so does his base.


Does the KKK love the so-called President?

Written August 23, 2017 on Facebook

One of the things supporters of the so-called President are saying, and that he said at his rally, is that he criticized hate groups like the KKK and neo-Nazis in his statements. They overlook his waffling in other parts of his statements of course, but they point to some things he said and claim it means he is not a bigot.

But what do the actual bigots really think?

Washington Post: "Less than a half-hour after Trump’s live remarks, the Daily Stormer had declared the president’s words as a signal of tacit support for their side: 'Trump comments were good. He didn’t attack us. He just said the nation should come together. Nothing specific against us.'

And David Duke - he GUSHED over the so-called President!

So here is what the supporters are saying; "we don't care if the KKK and neo-Nazis feel that the so-called President supported them or feel that he has their backs. We believe whatever the so-called President tells us..."

The "real" story of Charlottesville

There is nothing so dumb that it would prevent many people from believing it. Someone actually thinks it is "plausible" that "liberals" staged the violence and it was funded by George Soros to boot! Yup, he's an elected official.

Never mind that White Nationalists promoted the event which included David Duke as a speaker and the car-driving accused killer was known Nazi sympathizer. It was really the "liberals." Somehow they made the White Nationalists do it and kill one of the counter-protesters.

From AOL news:  "(Idaho State Rep.)  Bryan Zollinger, who serves the state’s 33rd District, took to Facebook over the weekend and shared an article that suggests a cabal of liberals may have staged the conflict to “smear” President Trump."


The "real" cause of the Civil War

Written August 19, 2017

Here is a post from a fellow who took exception to criticism of the alt-right White Nationalist rally in Charlottesville. Here is what he wrote on Facebook:

"The extreme racist who started the war in 1860 was Lincoln. He invaded the nation of the Confederate States of America with the sole purpose of keeping the tariffs and other taxes flowing from the South to the North and to make sure that the South had to keep buying expensive Northern products instead of cheaper imported ones. Every descendant of slaves today should get down on their knees and thank God that their ancestor was put on that boat. Blacks in America live better than any nation in Africa. You do realize that the first slave owner in the British colonies was a black man? You do realize that it was Yankee ships that brought slaves to the US? Or are you a total historical illiterate? You do realize that slavery is still practice in Muslim nations?"

Please note after excusing slavery throughout his paragraph and criticizing Lincoln as a racist for imposing tariffs(?), he then slams Muslims for still having slavery in some countries as if that was a terrible injustice all of a sudden.

This is certainly not the first time someone has told me that the slaves and their descendants should be thankful; the other times it was for being indoctrinated into Christianity.


Yes and the White Nationalist rally in Charlottesville was about free speech. It actually was for crazy speech.
