We should probably just ignore for now your insinuation that racism is largely a thing of the past.


I agree, ask people what they prefer to be called. You are mostly safe just saying black if needed to refer to their race(Color). I mentioned it because some forms and websites do not have the option to just choose black, it may only have 'African American' if you wish to select that you are black and from America. And that people often assume just because someone is black and in america that they are an African American. Some don't like that because they feel they aren't from Africa, like for example, calling a Jamaican an African American simply because he is black and is in america.

I didn't say racism is largely a thing of the past, it may never be a thing of the past. Prejudgment. I meant white supremacy is much smaller, less individuals who believe in that crap compared to 50-60 years ago, I'm also referring specifically in America, not globally.

Nah, no irony at all. You see, I can prove my assertion that the MSM is propaganda, and I do so all the time. I can show you how the media always supports war and why. I can show you why the Russia narrative is BS.


You, on the other hand, can only attack the source without actually critiquing the content. It's just, "Oh! Look! It comes from RT! It's Russian Propaganda!"


See the difference? Nope! I'm sure you don't!

Hmmmm. That Antifa video is ridiculous and his ideas have contradictions. Anti fascism, yet pro communism, yet pro democracy(Contradictions). Anti dictatorship, yet they themselves are dictators(Against free speech(Dictatorship)) which can also be considered fascism(Wow!) , communisim(Dictatorship). Democracy allows us to vote, free speech allows us to express our political views so we can try to elect the correct people which aid the economy and people within. With free speech, 'minorities' are allowed to voice their opinions so that we can hear and help them if possible. Antifa ideology is dictatorship ideology. "We know what's best, it's not up for discussion, we will even physically attack you if we feel the need to, to rule over you.".

Summary, Antifa/Anti fascism yet pro fascism.

We have one law I know of that applies restrictions on free speech, call fro acts of violence which Antifa's ironically break. We have freedom of speech for very good reasoning, and no it's not to freely spit out racist slurs. It's freedom of expression, once you allow a government to silence freedoms of speech you give them the ability to oppress minorities, no, not races, but minority opinions, like gay rights. Antifa's are oppressors and actually wish to convert our country to communism, an oppressive system.

The History Of Communism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_communism

Most modern forms of communism are grounded at least nominally in Marxism, an ideology conceived by noted sociologist Karl Marx during the mid-19th century. Marxism subsequently gained a widespread following across much of Europe and throughout the late 1800s its militant supporters were instrumental in a number of failed revolutions on that continent. During the same era, there was also a proliferation of communist parties which rejected armed revolution, but embraced the Marxist ideal of collective property and a class less society.

Although Marxist theory suggested that the places ripest for social revolution—either through peaceful transition or by force of arms—were industrial societies, communism was mostly successful in underdeveloped countries with endemic poverty such as the Russian Empire and the Republic of China. In 1917, the Bolshevik Party seized power during the Russian Revolution and created the Soviet Union, the world's first Marxist state. The Bolsheviks thoroughly embraced the concept of proletarian internationalism and world revolution, seeing their struggle as an international rather than a purely regional cause. This was to have a phenomenal impact on the spread of communism during the twentieth century as the Soviet Union installed new communist governments in Central and Eastern Europe following World War II and indirectly backed the ascension of others in the Americas, Asia and Africa. Pivotal to this policy was the Communist International (also simply known as the Commintern), which was formed with the perspective of aiding and assisting communist parties around the world and fostering revolution. This was one major cause of tensions during the Cold War as the United States and its military allies equated the global spread of communism with Soviet expansionism by proxy.

By 1985, one-third of the world's population lived under a communist system of government in one form or another. However, there was significant debate among communist ideologues as to whether most of these countries could be meaningfully considered Marxist at all. Many of the basic components of the Marxist system were altered and revised by various self-styled communist regimes. The failure of communist governments to live up to the ideal of a communist society as well as their general trend towards increasing authoritarianism has been linked to the decline of communism in the late 20th century. With the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, several communist states repudiated or abolished the ideology altogether. By the 21st century, only a small number of communist governments remained, namely Cuba, Vietnam and Laos. Despite retaining a nominal commitment to communism, the People's Republic of China has essentially ceased to be governed by the principles of Marxism or Maoism, reverting to an authoritarian regime with a mixed economy.

From the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 until 2017, demographers have estimated that self-styled communist governments have collectively claimed the lives of more than 68 million people through starvation, political purges, extrajudicial killings, forced labor camps, and violently implemented social engineering policies.


As the old saying goes, communism looks good on paper, not so much in practice. If you have dreams of communism, be kind enough to investigate how it seems to always end up oppressing societies and hand all wealth to top government officials while the rest of the country or state remains in poverty and have no voice to be heard without revolution.

This is why speech advocating acts of violence is illegal. Antifa, attacking innocent people. The law needs to step in and arrest all people claiming it's ok to physically attack people to push their agenda. What they are going to do is attempt to cause a revolution, if you think millions of people dying is cool, you should be imprisoned. We have a democratic government, try voting??

Nothing more to contribute to the discussion? Well, another win for me!


I love RT! I will bring some of the quality content they have to offer here, everyday, and watch you embarrass yourself with no argument, other than, 'Russia, Russia, Russia!" (I do so love showing up miserable, unprepared debaters!)

You're right! I'm embarrassing myself by stopping to your level. Let's get it back on the right track. Would you like to have a serious discussion about the content of the video I posted? Or do you just want to continue to be an annoying prat? The ball is in your court.

I've tried having a serious discussion with you before, and the inability to reason with you is why I'm not bothering to try now. I can't get through the psychological defences you've put up around your political identity, I don't know how to talk to people like you. You don't hear words from people like me, so it doesn't really matter what I say. That's why it's especially sad that you think I'm the one with no argument who has been brainwashed by the media they consumed, while a the same time posting Russian-government-sponsored propaganda videos. It's like, meta-irony or something.

Ah, I get it. Though I would like to see the full evidence. If it can be nailed down by lawyers that he did suggest an act of violence then he should pay the price for such activities. I've told you many times before, I'm not some big trump fan. Let me clarify, anyone who calls for acts of violence should get penalized how the law wishes to do so, more than often I would assume jailed or imprisoned, that applies to Trump, that applies to "anybody". It's no secret our government is extremely corrupt, just look at Hillary. Leaked classified information, lied under oath to congress, attempted to and probably succeeded to destroy evidence, and our crooked ass head of FBI didn't let others work on the case and helped her get away with it all.
