Don’t be dumb. It’s possible for more than one thing to be important. If you give a shit about people like Walter Scott’s shooter seeing justice, you better fucking care about Trump too, because his policies will affect these kinds of things, too.

Also it sets a really dangerous precedent to or let our side have the mic, ‘cause what happens if our side loses control. The wars on camesus over anti and pro Zionist speakers is a great example about how acceptable discourse can end up decided by the power brokers in a given space rather than anything to do with the…

Equality would be worrying about how it would feel to eject an eight pound baby human through my penis 9 months after unprotected sex.

So, your sad, misguided comment failed to do what you expected

I’ve said for years I wouldn’t be opposed to having to sign up for selective service — if nothing else it’s one less “but do you REALLY want equality? What about FIGHTING in WARS?” comment to have to shoot down.

“This is what equality looks like” - Yeah we know this is what we’ve been fighting for.

Women wold not be forced to serve unless in the event of a national emergency, like another world war. While that thought is reassuring for now, thinking about the situations we might find ourselves in a few years down the road under a new administration is sobering.

You’re right. No one should give a shit about farrakhan. The world will be a better place once he kicks off.

“What’s disturbing is that merely fact-checking does no good anymore.”

Please stop using “other white people” when you’re talking about the long history of anti-semitism in the West. European anti-semitic pogroms, banishments, and genocides were not “white on white crime” and to position them as racial equals when they were most definitely not considered “white” by the societies…

False equivalency? They both abhor Jews. Farrakhan is not nearly as powerful as Duke, but his rhetoric has potential to do harm too.

Freddy’s Fashion Mart riots, dipshit.

You’re a fucking moral relativist. You referred to activities the KKK participated in but you *forgot* to mention the dark and grim history of anti-semitism. Let me refresh your memory, does the word ‘holocaust’ ring a bell? If aligning with racists makes you complicit to past activities of the KKK, then how can…

, but there are probably less instances of violence against Jews in the US because you can’t exactly tell if someone is Jewish just by looking at them.

honestly i erased my comment because i realized i dont want to have this conversation, but to dismiss his antisemitic comments (which you may not be trying to do, but thats how it reads) is hurtful. yes. there is no point in arguing about this though because we obviously disagree.

...He compared Farrakhan to David Duke though, not the entire KKK. So your argument is kind of... completely unrelated to his point?

Words have meaning and he is on record as being very anti semantic and anti-Jewish. No way around it, Farrakhan is a HUGE bigot. He may not be David Duke’s exact equal but he’s far, far from innocent.

Yeah because the Jews have REAAAALLY had it super easy.

I’m sorry, I have to take exception - Farrakhan refers to Jews as the “Synagogue of Satan” (Detroit, May 2013) Farrakhan is also anti-LGBT & believes Isrealis/Jews are responsible for 9/11 - he is most certainly of the same clothe as David Duke.

KKK hates Jews too, but there are probably less instances of violence against Jews in the US because you can’t exactly tell if someone is Jewish just by looking at them.
