Why then are some “notable” while others are not?
Thank you for making my point. Either none of them should be, or all of them should be. I tend to believe the latter, since knowledge is power and it is imperative we document political violence by ideology.
Nobody is a strong word when one has to immediately contradict that in parentheses. That two identical right-wing extremist events occur simultaneously, both of whom appear to have been radicalized by online right-wing disinformation ops — that doesn’t seem beyond the realm of probability let alone possibility. I am also entertaining it; I didn’t say I believe it as fact.
Especially when we know for a fact that far-right extremist violence is the number-one domestic terrorist threat, and that both currently have links to antisemitic ideological groups.
How I wish it failed the “notability” requirement; and yet every other single mass-shooting incident has an entry. So why would you come to think this when this an anomalous outlier?
Is there any chance this and the Colorado school shooting that occurred during the same time are connected? Strikes me as very odd that there is very little information being dropped on that one, except for the fact that the 16-year-old was radicalized by an online “white supremacist” group.
What if these were synchronized for a reason and both were groypers?
Also, why is there no wikipedia entry for that event at all? It also makes sense that Fuentes – in an extremely unusual act of restraint – was calling on his followers during his show to tone down the rhetoric and don’t exact revenge. He knows something, doesn’t he?
We can monitor the stock of tiki torches made in China at Lowes to see.
Though added tariffs cost may stop the movement.
I’m just frustrated that very very few people including Sanders are remarking on that first part. He spread hate speech and misinformation. He and Trump’s rhetoric and actions are what led to this point.
Was so pissed off at Daily Show’s coverage last night when Kosta attacked Warren and the guy from msnbc calling a spade a spade.
Yep, a clever mouthpiece for spreading Christian Nationalist propaganda.
Kirk was a radical right-wing extremist. Groomed though he may have been (well, that hair was terrible), he just spewed hate speech.
Doesn’t seem that difficult of a test to pass.
Denouncing genocide is pretty easy to do.
Put another way: if he did denounce it, would he still be leading the Israeli orchestra? Doubtful.
I watched the video. There’s no surviving that. Not only did it hit his carotid, it looked like it hit his spine.
Russia bought out Republicans while Israel bought out mostly both (with all resistance left being beneath the Democratic banner, not to assert a both sides false equivalence)
75% of the electorate said long before the 2024 election said Biden was too old and wanted someone different.
Biden had initially commented (and later admitted to this in a press conference) that he once said he’d be only a transitional one-term President.
Biden disastrously fumbled the June debate and wasted precious weeks while many people blindly followed him despite having worse approval-ratings than Jimmy Carter.
This put the Harris campaign in such a tight spot where 3 weeks were dedicated just to transitional logistics and a mere 12 weeks to run a national campaign against a competitor who’s been taking cheap shots from the sidelines for 4 years straight.
Biden was immensely instrumental in setting Democrats up for failure in 2024. My opinion about his actual Presidency is independent of the reality of national optics, perception, and their campaign quality.
In other words, if Biden had announced ahead of 2024, “Having recovered America from the COVID pandemic and set the economy back on the path of success, narrowly dodging both recession and out of control inflation, I am now going to commit to my one-term transitional Presidency and open up my party’s process to a vibrant, organic, Democratic primaries. May a younger generation take this country forward” — that would’ve been SO much better than the incompetence out of an obsession for legacy we got.
I’ve ranked the top contributing factors for the Democrat’s loss in 2025, and chief among them in my view is Biden and his surrounding Yes-Men completely out of touch with the state of politics and tone-deaf to Biden’s obvious senility.
Selfish fuck should’ve committed to being a one-term president, Period.
I’d probably separate out Tim Walz on that list as well, even if he’s still not quite AOC.
Odds are high this is being brigaded by tankies or far-right astroturfers. They truly do Bibi proud by enabling his favorite pick in the White House while trying to sow defeatism and apathy while giving no constructive pragmatic alternative solution.
Edit: Case-in-point. This person is programmed to wedge-drive Democrats while ignoring the elephant in the room, the bigger fish — the PRIMARY choice of Netanyahu. Objective bystanders take note the obvious fact that genocide is no simply boolean but a gradient, and MORE people not LESS will die under Trump. Instead, they were wasting time promoting mUh BoTh SiDeS False Equivalence logical fallacies, lapping up the Russian and AIPAC kool-aid and playing right into their hands. Bibi and Trump thank you for your service.
Even if there was strong evidence, (a) right-wing media domination means she’d be laughed at as a sore loser, (b) Highest court in the land is stacked, as are many state level governments. Means it would go nowhere and perhaps backfire for Democrats even more.
And if people had forgotten, the entire nation saw January 6th with their own eyes and promptly ignored, forgotten, or twisted history.
All that said, a book tour seems to be pretty poor taste.
lol none of this changes what I already wrote whatsoever. I can rest my case here if nothing substantive to add. Blood on your hands as you dream of this magical fairy-tale land of a 3rd viable option.
Like Nougat, I have enough respect and logic to be able to distinguish the Greater from the Lesser Poison for Palestinians in what was a binary choice.
More frankly: Anyone who espoused couch-sitting and MUh boTH sIdEz false equivalence fallacies are complicit in Israel’s genocide because any rational person could see Israel would be more constrained by Democrats, while Bibi and AIPAC obviously preferred Trump and Republicans winning.
Also, this isn’t to mention they’re complicit in worsening Russia’s attempted genocide in Ukraine.
Edit: Very stable folks replying, lol.
That’s because she’s an operative of Russia. She does what she’s told almost like the terminator. No remorse.
Couldn’t have been more obvious when she tried very hard to stop Trump from bombing Iran, Russia’s weapons supplier and ally.
They’re all a bunch of Psychopaths, of course, but I understand the intrigue.
What should’ve undeniably and without a shadow of doubt happened to Trump following Jan 6th.
Frankly his gross negligence in handling the covid pandemic itself should warranted criminal charges.
