no thread on the alt right march in charlottesville?

I remember when Vice was cutting edge must see do entaries. Shame they were bought out and turned into another propaganda machine.

Vice actually goes to places and investigates... this is just bs "bought out" nonsense

It boggles my mind how everyone except the most rightwing fringe elements haven't completely turned on Trump yet over this. "Make America Great Again!" Many people would consider our contributions to World War 2 (yes, before anyone chimes in, I know we were neutral until Pearl Harbor and the Russians did a majority of the heavy lifting) the United States' defining moment in the 20th century. We ramped up our manufacturing stateside to keep our allies in constant supply and, even though coming in late, still suffered about as many casualties on the European front as the UK.

It was our "greatest" moment in the 20th century, followed by a post-war boom and optimism after defeating one of the great evils in human history. This is the "great America" Trump's base supposedly wants to return to, so it makes no sense for them to connect Nazism and White Supremacy to their #MAGA ideology. And oh yeah, if these alt-right s pulled that flying the Nazi flag in the "great" 1950s, they would've gotten the ever loving kicked out them by veterans.

Trump is an alt-right figure now, not a conservative nor republican figure.

Trump has never been a conservative. He's always been more Hitler than Hindenburg.

I knew this would be an entertaining presidency, but man...Trump has really outdone himself. Best reality show ever. I almost hope he doesn't get impeached so politics can actually be fun to watch instead of the run of the mill establishment bull .

LOL they're the two most useless s ever. Hopefully Mueller time has something good for Cuckner.

I hate those two so much.

Him getting impeached and removed would be hilarious, just to see the sheriff show up at 1600 Penssylvania to evict him. Now that would be great reality TV to see him dragged out the White House.

Bump.

Just saw that vice video...sad. Once those guys leave Charlottesville and go back to their jobs in HR and decide who gets hired and fired. They'll go back to protecting and serving, some will sit on a jury and decide the fate of a black or Jew. They'll teach their ideologies to their children, deny loans to families, deny insurance claims to those they hate.

No military veteran worth his weight is supporting the orange right now. As I've been saying through this thread, for Trump to play the moral equivalency game is a goddamn insult to those WW2 vets.

And for his supporters who are constantly saying, "Whatever Trump says about Charlottesville won't make you snowflakes happy!"

This is all I would like to hear (as would most "snowflakes"): "I denounce the alt-right and their Nazi, white nationalistic, and white supremacist ideas. I have no idea why they chose me [he does, obviously] as their symbol, but I want nothing to do with them. I denounce what the Unite the Right protesters stand for. I also implore protesters on the other side to act with restraint and make your voice heard peacefully."

Then Steve Bannon's head is on a platter.

None of those actions would compromise Trump with real patriotic conservatives. But he simply doesn't want to give in and show weakness.

There woudn't be a country left.

7 months in and nothing signficant has been done.

No healthcare, tax Reforms, infrastructure, etc.

I understand your anticipation of such an event.

I felt the same in' way when Zero got evicted. Same exact way when Hillary and her brood were evicted.

I'd anticipated it in my dreams, impossible dreams they were. They came to reality. Zero wasn't going back in there. Bill wasn't going back in there. Hillary wasn't going back in there. That daughter of theirs, that little , no, she wasn't going back in there. None of 'em were.

Sheriff Bannon evicted their in' asses.

Yes, bum, I know EXACTLY where you're coming from.

Talk about an overreaction. Pretty sure the day FDR started the internment camps is still the worst day in presdential history.

Yes, total hyperbole on my part.

And nothing will be done. That was decided so on 8 November last. I understand that. I understood it to be so on 8 November last. Trump? He is still living in a fantasy that they'll play American with him. You can fantasize that way when you've got multii billions of dollars in the bank waiting for you on the end of the wait. So, I forgive him his fantasies.

In some states, it's illegal to take down monuments or change street names honoring the Confederacy

The county sheriff in Durham said he was investigating it as a crime of vandalism. Politicians, meanwhile, went on television to remind residents of a

law the state General Assembly passed two years ago barring governments from removing any “object of remembrance” on public property.

In the aftermath of Charlottesville, officials in Baltimore, Houston, San Antonio, Louisville, Ky., Lexington, Ky., Jacksonville, Fla., and other cites said they would push for the review or removal of Confederate monuments.

Other groups also began amassing along the street and in the park. Gradually, the crowd sizes increased along with aggressiveness and hostility of attendees toward one another. Shortly before 11 a.m., individuals in the crowd began throwing objects and spraying chemical agents into the crowd. The city and county then made a declaration of “local emergency.” The crowd size became increasingly violent, with mutually engaged combatants, with one-on-one attacks following.

We were hoping that it would not elevate to this level of the violence that we witnessed amongst the participants in the crowds, on all sides. They were throwing bottles, they were throwing soda cans with cement in them. They were fighting -- breaking out and attacking one another. Launching chemicals into the crowd.

That tweet received a lot of backlash on twitter (and probably from NYT), so

Obviously, none of these people are encouraging KKK, Nazis, or white supremacists by pointing this out.

That said, it wasn't very smart for Trump to go back to the "many sides" comments, given the level of freak out when he said it the first time.
