Jack Kirby agreed with you:

Yes, I have listened to his speeches. I have watched footage of his speeches. I was directly quoting, without paraphrase, from what I saw and heard in footage of those speeches. I don’t know what information sources you’re using to inform your view, but I’m pretty confident in mine.

Oh, and there are a lot of people I…

You’re Jewish? Cool. So is my wife, her family, and by extension, my daughter.

I know what the alt-right looks like. Sometimes it looks like Stormfront. sometimes it looks like the twenty or so people that tried to march past my wife’s workplace a few weekends back, and got shouted down by a much larger group of…

‘I am a classic liberal. I am also The real Alt Right’s public enemy number one.’

Oh man. Look at this fucking guy, everyone. Any minute now he’s going to tell us the ethnicities, genders and religious affiliations of ‘some of his best friends’ with a straight face

Indeed. He has not attacked anyone. At present, he is just treading a philosophical path which has been trodden before, and which, because it was not treated seriously until it had too much momentum to stop, enabled a culture of racist atrocity. He is deliberately and explicitly invoking that ideology. He needs to be…

It does. (thumbs up).

You’re not helping, Obi-Wan. ;)

‘Spencer was merely speaking while the Nazi Party was enforcing it’s beliefs violently by force.’

So his views about the racial supremacy of the whites are better than theirs because he hasn’t attacked anyone yet? Bullshit.

He is arguing for a shift in a particular direction. They are the proof that it is a fucking bad…

Will the endless atrocities of Big Diaper never end?

Yeah, that happened to a pal of mine. He’s about a foot taller than me and once broke my collarbone in one of those ‘you don’t know your own strength’ accidents (at university his nickname was ‘the bulldozer puppy’) and when we were 13 I would sit on the subs bench watching entire teams of opposition players bounce…

I was in a team like that- one of my friends was about a foot taller than everyone else until we got to about age 14. We had a few other people like that too, just early developers who were very physically talented. Then it all started to even out in terms of height, weight, strength etc for everybody. We went from…

I think you’re pretty much right. The fact that the England team didn’t just adapt to that is a reflection on them, not the Italians.

It does look to me like they (and Italy) perceived their advantage as being out wide, but it’s strategy 101- if your opponent is better than you at doing something, find a way to stop…

If every left-leaning person realised what you said there, a lot of things would be better.

I’m ok with mainstreaming understanding of the Holocaust, and how fascism starts, if unchecked.

Fuck. CRUZ IS PLAYING THE LONG GAME!

Actually, funny thing there, the Cruz’ “how the hell did anyone support this guy” phenomenon had some major strategic boosts from Cambridge Analytica: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/dec/11/senator-ted-cruz-president-campaign-facebook-user-data

Here’s a good explanation of a major reason why: The Right, at the moment, has a far better grasp of the internet, and is much better at targeting exactly the people it needs to win elections and referenda:

This reminds me of the time Bush was at a dinner of academics and said the name ‘John Locke’ when he was talking about influences on American Democracy. He said it like ‘umm, John Locke?’ and his intonation screamed ‘I’ve been given this name. Is this a guy you’ve heard of? Did I say it right?’

Would it be possible for a potential pro career for him to co-exist with that of Ben Roethlisberger? Because in a perfect world, it would.

No, it’s 1933.

Fair point. Would we agree though that the way I’ve described it would not be surprising in the slightest?
