I think the heat on Tucker was nothing but a good thing.

2018-12-03 18:10:04 UTC  

It pushed him more right imo and made the opposition look bad.

2018-12-03 18:10:11 UTC  

We need more of that.

2018-12-03 18:11:06 UTC  

As far as the cause is concerned, yeah, but we're also lucky that the antifa were more of the noodle-armed variety, rather than angel dust-addled nutjobs.

2018-12-03 18:12:05 UTC  

As they escalate it pushes normies and government toward our side, my thoughts anyway.

2018-12-03 18:12:15 UTC  

For sure.

2018-12-03 18:12:40 UTC  

If we can peacefully trigger escalation, well...

2018-12-03 18:12:50 UTC  

lmao that prager video on Israel is pretty e šŸ…± ic, "we need to spend more on israel" the guy also looks like Bibi

2018-12-03 18:13:07 UTC  

@MrBland - VA That's one of our raisons d'etre šŸ˜Ž

2018-12-03 18:13:38 UTC  

@fgtveassassin Yeah. They're breddy much doin' our work for us at this point.

2018-12-03 18:13:40 UTC  

Then all gung ho on Molyneux then šŸ˜‰

2018-12-03 18:13:51 UTC  

šŸ˜Ž

2018-12-03 18:13:56 UTC  

If we do nothing? We will regret it. Iā€™d love to call in to the show

2018-12-03 18:14:35 UTC  

Yeah, I'm just being squishy and equivocating. Peaceful escalation is the name of the game.

ā€œSatire requires a clarity of purpose and target lest it be mistaken for and contribute to that which it intends to criticize,ā€ as the meme goes. There is a tendency to defend everything someone like Anglin does or says because of an ostensible framing of satire. But when your publications are a gyre of ironic/non-ironic/meta-ironic/post-ironic content its impossible to differentiate memes from actual opinion- and thatā€™s not the job of the reader. Heā€™s managed to make himself into an irony-poisoned boy-who-cried-wolf analogue and he has himself solely to blame if what was supposed to be taken as satire is not. Thereā€™s a tendency in the ā€œwider movementā€ to be unequivocally opposed to everything that comes out of the mouth of someone who isnā€™t a complete ideological analogue, which I think is harmful. Case in point, ā€œthe leftā€ voices concern about rape or something and we get a (mercifully small) number of people who completely lose it and come up with ā€œwhite sharia.ā€ If someone with bangs says something about the need for Braille signs you get some autist in the YouTube comment section stating how we need to euthanize blind people or something. Itā€™s the most mindless, miserable thing. ā€œIf theyā€™re going to call you a monster might as well be one lmao lol!ā€ is an attitude that has led to nothing but strife and I wonā€™t associate with anyone who thinks along those lines. You shouldnā€™t either.

2018-12-03 18:16:25 UTC  

the pragerU fallout is wonderful

2018-12-03 18:17:42 UTC  

I wouldnā€™t call into Moly. Waaay too public

2018-12-03 18:17:55 UTC  

If heā€™s put on the spot, heā€™d probably rebuke us

2018-12-03 18:18:01 UTC  

@ophiuchus I'm going to be dense here, is there a particular group/person that post was focused on?

2018-12-03 18:18:14 UTC  

Oh gawd Prager that looks like a Torah, I would hope you're not spreading anti-semetic propaganda

2018-12-03 18:18:30 UTC  

@MrBland - VA no, just my piece on Anglin in general

2018-12-03 18:22:00 UTC  

@NateDahl76 Moly would do his whole "collectivism and identity politics are bad like Communism" bit.

2018-12-03 18:22:17 UTC  

the youtube comments are awesome, but ofc the facebook boomerposts consist of "God blesses those who bless israel" šŸ˜’

2018-12-03 18:22:33 UTC  

screw our own nation and children, am i right?

2018-12-03 18:25:11 UTC  

I think that Alex Jones might actually be far more effective purely as a meme, while being unable to actually relay his "politics" to a large audience.

2018-12-03 18:26:33 UTC  

Everyone I know routinely says ā€œglobalistā€ now due to Alex Joneā€™s memeing

2018-12-03 18:27:08 UTC  

Of course itā€™s just in the sense of like ā€œGLOBALIST PUBLIX IS OUT OF PASTA SAUCEā€ but still, memeā€™s out there now

2018-12-03 18:32:06 UTC  

Thanks for putting my registry in the announcements šŸ˜ƒ

2018-12-03 18:37:58 UTC  

Yeah, hockey pucks will definitely work

2018-12-03 18:38:18 UTC  

Better than pencils but not as good as BJJ

2018-12-03 18:38:32 UTC  

I mean if you have a mean arm. It could work.

2018-12-03 18:38:54 UTC  

@Bjorn - MD it's knuckle puck time

2018-12-03 18:39:41 UTC  

Wasn't there a school that wanted to arm faculty with rocks at one point?

2018-12-03 18:39:59 UTC  

ā€œHit a bowl cut with a rockā€

2018-12-03 18:40:43 UTC  

@Goose GOLDBERG!

Just stop letting kids by with a warning for crimes. The past like 5 shooters had mile long rap sheets they never got actually written up on so they were able to buy not safe things that shoot small metal things

2018-12-03 18:42:32 UTC  

That and being put on amphetamines from a young age.

2018-12-03 18:43:27 UTC  

yeah my sister's kids , all three of them, are on ADHD meds

2018-12-03 18:43:51 UTC  

Pretty sure they just act crazy because she doesn't and can't give them enough attention, being a single mom
