Where did that 40k number come from @Misomania
@Orteid been a while, was watching their live stream and the numbers came from the police organizing the movement of the people
but that is a common occurance. You see like 20 patriot prayer people in a gazebo... and like 1-2k antifa around them... can't remember what protest that was right now
member when thousands of anti protestors showed up to fight the white supremist indian guy running against Pocahontas
OK well I'd have to see that number for myself with regard to the women's march but my earlier point still stands that most people in the march don't know anything about the anti-semitism
Yeah, I don't think my sister would have participated if she had any idea
She's Jewish and lived in Israel for 7 months
but she lives in a bubble
Yeah we all do
hardcore SJW with Trump Derangement Syndrome
We just gotta find what our bubble is
I think a portion of everyone's bubble in here is our information bubble. 99% of people don't follow journalists
She's one of those people who will openly say she does not see the remote possibility of even *respecting* anyone who doesn't hate Donald Trump
regardless though, as adults we are fully responsible for our decisions. That rests solely on the shoulders of the people making them
blaming others and claiming to be a victim simply continues the cycle that caused it in the first place
learn from the past or be doomed to repeat it
What victimization are you talking about? From the very beginning all I've said is that Tim is mischaracterizing most marchers as anti-semites
I'm not talking about victimization
being victims, victimhood culture in that being one makes you a better person. Part of the oppression olympics
rather then admit fault claim to be a victim
that it blocks one from learning if you continually blame others and claim victim status
until that ends, nothing will change and this will repeat
women's march 2.0 will form and it will be the exact same thing, and so on
Are you really saying that people are ignorant of the anti-semitism because of victim culture <:TimThink:482277772497125378>
My guess: Tim's under the impression that most, if not all, of the marchers are politically active and constantly keep up with goings-on in the news re: Trump and activist movements against him, so they'd surely have been aware of the revelations regarding the organization
^
no, that they cannot look at missed warning signs that would have made a better outcome because that it is easier to close your eyes and claim to have never seen anything
I was in a bubble, I never knew... over and over and over again as the cycle repeats
do an autoposy of the movement, look at the warning signs, look at what went wrong and how you intereracted with it. Learn from the past in a honest brutal way because only then can you do better next time
Where would they have even seen those warning signs? Again, most people have 1 (one) source of news, be it CNN, Fox, ABC, MSNBC, or whatever, and as far as I know, none of them have reported on the anti-semitism until very recently
Also
Being in a bubble is fine as long as you recognize it and try to pop it and expand the territory to which your mind travels
That's not the claim people are making
the problem is people knowing they're in a bubble and refusing to do anything but constrict it more
That's the claim I'M making ABOUT the people in the March
That they live in a bubble
Most people will not know about the anti-semitism at all
it's less a bubble and more a bias confirming echo chamber they constructed via social media filters
It won't even cross their mind
OK you're activating rhetoric mode again @Misomania
