Comment on A warning
OccamsRazer@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoIt’s more about the celebratory atmosphere after the fact, and less about the evidence in individual cases that is either not available yet or is conflicting as to what ideology (if any), the violence was motivated by. I’d say the real present danger is that a noted and high profile political figure (but not a politician), was murdered (presumably) for his views. That’s real, and not a what if.

if he was murdered by maga we’ve only been screaming about this since 2016

I expect people to be able to say things without being murdered. Killing is not an appropriate response.

stop trying to whitewash this
he didn’t just say ‘things’
he spewed inflammatory hate and lies justifying violence towards marginalized groups for the sake of personal profit
and again there is zero proof this was maga
so far this year it has been consistently white hard right extremists

Did he advocate for violence? Do you really think it’s MAGA? Come on… but if it is then i will formally apologize to you. Also I’d be curious of the count for left wing versus right wing violence. I’d also be curious which events you consider applicable to that count.

Question, have you ever seen any of his debates? Is easy to say message of hate but please cite evidence of this that is not based on “dude trust me” sources
baines@lemmy.cafe 3 weeks ago
have you? but don’t worry internet has plenty of his highlights atm
not everything he says is wrong but plenty enough of it is and most of it is self serving as fuck
obviously he thought he was immune from the consequences so rather ironic

I have seen his debates and he usually just tries to tie in biblical response to why Aniston is bad, why illegal immigration is bad and other bread and butter conservative parties that are pretty much run of the mill stuff. I think the real reason libs hate him is this. Image
