    honestly why do any of you even give a shit? I kinda feel like locking this thread. It's stupid. 

    You may not be familiar with 3rd amendment to the constitution: the right to mercilessly ridicule absolutely retarded leftists on the internet. James madison compels citizens to do so.

    Edited to ask if you think antifa is not anti-fascist, and if so, why?

    Like the norks not having actual democratic representation of the people, “antifa” has nothing to do with opposing fascism. 

    That term is a cudgel used by ugly societal-rejects as an avenue to rebel against normal society. Probably because they hate their parents (you know, the true and original oppressors in their miserable lives).

  4. Guys, when noted tabloid guardian writes “thousands protest against Israel”, it doesnt mean the people are “anti-israel”.

    Its especially more true if you write it in bold burnt orange text.

    (Will you extend this interpretive generosity towards people protesting against immigration, for example?)

    Its a silly singing contest, yes. But instead of recognizing the prima facie ABSURDITY of thousands of people protesting a single 20 year old girl participating in a silly singing contest, led by a teenager otherwise known for climate activism (what a high credibility icon!)….youre contorting yourself inside out to search for the REAL nuance. 

    Fella, you are lost in the sauce.

    Ah, so you're not interested in an honest conversation. I took the time to answer your question with a thorough response. You just delete all that shit and then throw out more accusatorial queries. Finished engaging with you.

    You didnt remotely answer my question.

    I asked why the people who interrogated each of pronghorns posts and sources, didnt do when it came to the visegrad24 post. All of them are inarguably the same tone — against the protestors. 

    You counter-asked “why is pro-palestine framed as anti-israel”? Because greta thunberg, subject of the tweet, literally said this

    Quote

    Among the crowd of protesters waving Palestinian flags on Malmö’s town square was Greta Thunberg. “It is outrageous that Israel is allowed to participate”, said the environmental activist,

    Not wanting Israel to have participation is not anti-israel?

    Is protest “against Israel” not anti-Israel or is the guardian also wrong in its framing too?IMG_6266.thumb.jpeg.de75c9c5eb37a731955b8a2d0411f4e3.jpeg

    Then you submitted a bunch of personal statements which i didnt ask for and am frankly not interested in. I dont say that to be insulting, I say that because I didnt have suspicion of your anti-whatever and dont think the honesty of your beliefs need to be brought to trial.

    I was under the impression that visegrad24 was a polish state sponsored propaganda outlet. Is that not the case?

    It very well could be. But that ‘baggage’ has never been dug up in the Ukraine thread while they were busy sniffing out the ‘good’ vs ‘bad’ accounts. 

    The point being that people arent principled or consistent in whether they care about the message vs the messenger, they just cherry pick their vector of attack based on political alignment.

    Can you explain why being pro-Palestinian is necessarily anti-Israel, as the author of the tweet frames it?

    Can you explain why its always the author of the tweet, or even the sharer of the tweet, that becomes the subject of litigation, except when its visegrad24. Is it because people find it easiet to discredit the messenger than the message?

    I believe it was bill shakespeare who said “a rose by any other name would post such a tweet”

    BTW protestors are  gathering in Malmo for the Eurovision contest not to celebrate the competition, but to protest because an Israeli girl is in the finals.  Does Greta think she should have been disqualified? 

     

    It's important to remember that most activists participate as a matter of fashion, not as a matter of principle.
