So far just reports of several injured ranging from critical to not serious. One woman is unresponsive :(
Yup. Not anti-fa either. Just regular protesters walking down the street.
They were chanting “Blood and Soil” too. They are nazis, full stop.
Trigger warning. And here’s video:
So a car just plowed through a bunch of people. Here’s the info: EmilyGorcenski
Can you imagine if this was BLM or Standing Rock literally pushing and trying to physically fight riot cops?
The ACLU will never get a dime of my money. They are also defending Milo Y. They’ve turned down plenty of other valid free speech cases, yet they’ve been vigilantly defending racists for decades.
That’s entirely rational. We’ve got a lot of work & learning to do.
Seen plenty of “progressive” white folks on twitter speak about how it’s great we live in a country where even idiots like this can speak their minds. SMH.
Seems important enough for Jez to follow suit. WhiteFeminismTM is a recurring critique of this site, and the silence so far probably doesn’t do anything to assuage people of that notion.
FYI: Nazi’s are marching in Charlottesville, VA. Many brought guns, lot’s of violence. National guard and riot police finally out. Some reporters on the scene: https://twitter.com/letsgomathias
You make a good point. My argument would be that “putting feet to the fire” on this question won’t do jack shit. That us being stuck in the, “this is unbelievable, how can this be happening?” isn’t actually putting any feet to any fire and that to be more effective we need to organize with the knowledge that they are…
Can we retire this question please? It’s really not hard to see how thousands of years of patriarchy and misogyny would have effects on both men and women. Believe it and move on from there.
I really hope he faces some real consequences finally, and that those women/girls can return to a healthy, normal life.
“but they are probably not being held against their will.” What information do you have that makes you say that so confidently?
My white dad said the same thing. He was also fond of saying, “You’re cruisin’ for a bruisin’” to instill fear and make us get in line. Anyone else hear that one?
Good.
We all know!?!?!? Dude, you clearly do not know the subject at hand at which you speak very authoritatively. I recommend coming to realize that truth and keeping quiet about a subject you know so little about and which harms so many people and which can be retriggering reading ignorant dudes on the internet act…
