redneckdevil Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 There is a pretty big message difference between a group protesting against police brutality and racism and a group of white supremacists, though. Police brutality and racism are real issues that need to be addressed, and so Obama condemning the BLM movement is a much trickier situation. Nazis, KKK, and the like should be pretty easy to condemn. That should be an automatic thing. They think moving a statue is some sort of attack on the white race. It's ridiculous. They are real issues that the BLM/Antifa sprung up from, but I'm hoping the reason why Obama should have addressed it was because of the similarities that BLM tactics and ideology mirrors the KKK. Open racism violence towards white people, Black power, advocating black superiority, segregation from whites in schools, use of terrorism, purification of the white man's influence, blaming the white man for all their problems, black lives are worth more than others, etc etc. The list goes on and on. Without a leader to enforce guidelines, it simply became a mob rule fueled with victimhood for the most part, so since it doesn't have a mode to regulate itself or from others combined, it's not so tricky for Obama to demand someone to take control of the group. The thing is, LET BLM continue BUT force it to have an open leadership or else for all we know they can resemble yet again the KKK model with being a secretive organization. This way they can be held accountable and have an organized face and motive AND goal being enforced, otherwise they just another hate group. Also Obama during this time did call for an end to violence and racism, but racism was directed at white people, with all that happening that listed and more, accusations of racism wasn't ever levered at BLM because at the time a stupid notion that ONLY white people could be racist, everyone else was just discriminating which even if u do the same thing was more okay due to the color of your skin. Course again I will also say that hindsight is a bitch, but with all the **** that was being done, is it possible that if the love of the media had actually condemned and said they were being racist....would they have been the violent hate group they were? Would they have gotten as much acceptance and blind eye to wards them? 1

[citation needed] trying to look up the news and speeches i have read in the past, i have to admit im a bit conflicted. i have to say i am wrong of what i have said about BLM. BLM is about police brutality against blacks and problems with the legal system, full stop. While reading old articles, i see the stuff i was talking about were written by people who used the publicity that BLM gathered to voice their own rhetiric. so yes i was wrong, i admit it. i do say though then is, not BLM but the stupid violatile rhetoric is the problem. https://www.thecollegefix.com/post/25748/ so it seems its not all it seems to be, wtf did the police think it was a good idea to either arrest them or move thru the BLM activists to get to their area they are allowed to protest in????????? did they really not think somethign was gonna happen? yes these people are pieces of **** but lets call a turd a turd. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxECY1PXjiM 1

Not sure if you're saying Brietbart is lying or who is lying here.

Not sure if you're saying Brietbart is lying or who is lying here. It's clear in the article democratic governor lied, not sure what is so hard to understand. On the other hand the lack of intellect on the left is not surprising anymore. Gov. clearly wanted to score some points in the usual way the left do this, by fabricating a lie on their opponents. He didn't take into account that there are some decent people that will not be his puppets in the police force. I don't exactly trust Brietbart and I find them to be as lowly as Fox News, but hey, to each of their own media bubbles, which is why I didn't look any further than the title. I agree that Gov. McAuliffe is being an idiot and pretty blantantly was trying to score political points with previous comments too. He's term limited out, so, not sure why he'd bother trying to score political points. Edited August 16, 2017 by smjjames

In all seriousness though, they started out as practically the mouthpiece for the Trump admin, but they've since more or less dropped Trump like a hot potato. Edited August 16, 2017 by smjjames

Nah, don't worry. It's just that Sharp_One loves the word libtard and he thinks Breitbart has only "flat fact" articles (in other words, no political spin to them). And unlike me, he's being serious about it. =) No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.
Hurlshort Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Also just because someone isn't a conservative, doesn't mean they are a liberal. We could do with a heck of a lot more moderate voices out there. 2
smjjames Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) So, Steve Bannon seems to have bombshell-hit-the-fan himself by talking with a liberal publication, though there is more to it than just talking to the journalist. Some of his colleagues are disturbed at the whole thing and the journalist was surprised that Bannon had called for an interview. brief The Hill article on it Google cache of the interview since the website itself is having some problems atm for some reason.

injurai Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 That article really makes Bannon out to be a economical hawk. Which I honestly have to agree with. America no doubt benefits from focusing on high level services, and moving manufacturing abroad. But the US really needs to ramp up with new industries. We're an nation in regression that is trying to spend down it's capital to reach something just short of social utopia. I haven't been following Bannon closely enough to have an opinion on whether his approach is even good or beneficial, but I think the US really needs to ramp some things up. It's interesting to read his daggered disavowment of the alt-right. He seems laser focused on foreign policy with little regard to any domestic optics.
