Nazi lives don't matter.
Understatement
Guys like that are a tiny, tiny portion of the population. The problem in America, as usual, are the ignorant and politically disconnected. I'd go as far as to say that most MAGA have no idea what Trump is up to. Think Fox News and their FB friends are talking about all this, seeing the news we see here everyday?
Martin Luther King, Jr. pretty much nailed what I'm trying to say in Letter from a Birmingham Jail [emphasis mine]:
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
I'm sorry but I have to respectfully disagree. Every conservative, no matter how ignorant or politically disconnected, believes that they are the exception. That they are special and they will be spared from being eaten by the leopards.
It's all those other people who deserve it.
Every conservative believes this. From the sweetest nana to the bitter Nazi.
This is the root of conservatism: that they are the boot and everyone else deserves to be stepped on.
ALL of that is true! I'm just saying there not all unapologetic Nazis like the guy pictured. They're mostly ignorant.
He has a longer video about how to debate right-wingers. Can't find the video I want, but Mehdi Hassan is well worth watching.
Never heard of this POS. He got significant coverage in India for some reason.
