RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. Business have the right to hire or fire anyone for their religious beliefs
Someone gets fired for being a nazi
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MY FREE SPEECH. You can't fire someone just because their political views are genocide against other races. That's separate from the job.
"She admitted that when she began the career, she was 'excited' to take on the role, as she had hoped to change the face of the product — which has been historically targeted to white men socially."
I don't believe a thing this dyke says about her firing.
I find thats true with so many things. I may not like what you're doing, but i can accept it. If you lie to me about why you did something, i'm going to be fucking pissed.
They take issue with business doing this outta pressure, rather than out of own choice, free speech doesn't really have anything to do with it.
I'm kinda split. On one hand, I dislike anyone putting pressure on any public figure/company to force them taking certain political stance as it's insincere and I like enjoying schadenfreude from activists not getting their way. On other hand, business generally don't give a flying fuck and won't do anything unless forced.
In this case tho, this is just a shitty PR move by everyone from discord to google to take this stance this late. They've been making money off the nazis for years, but now that tides turned, they suddenly remembered they have "terms of service".
Is anyone else a bit shocked by how much commotion this attack has caused?
We've had plenty of worse attacks the last couple of months, so why is this one special? And why go to such an extent to give far right ideas a large amount of free publicity? Haven't they learned from Hillary "Pepe is a hate symbol" Clinton that this will only backfire?
Not really. If it was a race-related shooting or something, sure. But this specifically ties into protest violence, which has been a story for awhile. Someone finally died from these idiots yelling at each other.
No, I understand, but that wasn't at a political event (yes, I know politicians were there, but you know the difference). The US has gotten numb to random active of violence, even to some extent those caused by political differences.
But not at political rallies.
This like when that all star autist Adam Lanza took school shootings up a notch by shooting up a preschool or whatever. School shooting were one things but the country didn't expect people to go shoot up other schools, especially ones filled with toddlers.
Yeah, but nobody really cared about that. It's not like they passed any gun laws or took even one step to stop toddlers from getting mown down in hail of bullets.
Even today, Infowars and a bunch of places think it was a (((False Flag))) with I guess like, midget crisis actors or something?
I dunno, my point is Americans are only "shocked, just shocked" to find out about violence for about 10 minutes, and then they go back to eating their fatburgers or whatever.
The US has gotten numb to random active of violence
This is a good point, nobody really blinks an eye at mass shootings anymore. The fact that it was a car of peace probably made it particularly notable.
This is a good point, nobody really blinks an eye at mass shootings anymore. The fact that it was a car of peace probably made it particularly notable.
And it was an actual Nazi killing a white woman who was there rallying against Nazis and also there was so much clear video footage.
Plus the fact that there were no guns involved to derail the argument into America's retarded gun policy.
Id argue assassinations are worse than arguably collateral damage at a rally with people being fucking retards all day and the police just letting them go at each other
The shooter died, which means fewer media updates on him, and the people he shot lived, which means less media outrage on their behalves, so it makes sense to me that less of a 'big deal' would be made in terms of coverage.
Idk fam the bernout got a lot of coverage even on NPR. Are you just talking about reddit? Cuz considering the bernie dick succin that went on here its not surprising the story didnt linger on mainstream subs.
I'm mildly surprised that there isn't more criticism of the policing of the event in general. If you watch the livestreams out there it seems like after the mayor or whoever declared a state of emergency the police just told everyone to disperse and took a pretty hands off approach to crowd control.
I suspect if an Antifa had killed a Nazi there would be a lot more focus on the complete security failure the town/state had in general there.
For now. There's a certain segment of centrists (or neoliberals or w.e) that are trying to tie this into Putin like they do with everything else.
everyone keeps saying the Right is eating itself since the rally (true) but I've also been following all the lefties (DSA/Chapo/Weird Twitter/Bernie Bros/centrists/neoliberals etc) and theyre fighting just as bad. BLM types saying not to make nice with white allies and to condemn them for "stealing" the "SayHerName" hashtag which IS FOR BLAKCS ONLY!!! STAY OUT WHITEY.
Plus tons of centrists/neolibs/Hillary-stans doing there usual blaming everything on Bernie/Jill Stein and how Hillary would have prevented this and how socialists are actually Putin-puppets (even tho the fat pig who died was from the DSA).
Not really, not in the context that is happened at a political protest/rally. One of the aspects of the US that is supposed to be "exceptional" is the absence of political violence while letting all parties express themselves via rallies, protests, etc.
I'm just going to start selling body armor with political slogans on it. If it's going to stick around like herpes, I might as well make some money off of it.
The United States has exported into the world the most damaging ideology of consumerism and of death. As the USSR was destroyed so must the US and it's world order die.
Freedom is not freedom if there is no bounds.
I hope for the US to suffer because I love her truly I love this country and it's pain must come about to get back on the right path.
The setting has nothing to do with it. Violence against the right is normalized and accepted whereas violence against the left is not.
It's kinda like how feminists claim we have a "rape culture" because there's so little outrage whenever a woman is raped. It's accepted as a normal occurrence. Same as black-on-black crime.
When a republican is murdered or assaulted, you'll see plenty of virtue signaling about "what a tragedy" it is, but none of the emotional backlash like we've seen on Reddit the last few days. Because killing or assaulting those people is normal.
But when a leftist is murdered by a righty, you see days of hysterics from the Reddit bubble about all the Nazis that need to be killed. Suddenly half the country is Nazis and needs purging, and literally no one is talking this shit down.
Nah the party of punch anyone who disagrees is made up of homosexuals and racial mongrels who cry if they even get a love tap back after trying to kill you.
Sorry dude, but Bavarians would place very low in the Whiteness Olympics. Your ancestors were repeatedly conquered by Slavs, Magyars, etc. So if you're going to follow any tard religion, instead of white supremacy you should probably pick one like Marxism that at least makes sense for you.
Honestly Andrew Anglin isn't that retarded. And a lot of the technical end is handled by weev. I saw some posts suggesting that this was a way to attempt to tie into the James Damore controversy.
Not sure about that because it seems kinda retarded and not likely to produce results. But at the same time the #1 racist website and #1 racist hacker SHOULD have known better. So its either give them benefit of the doubt about 88D Chess or they are actually just retarded.
ITT: Liberals cheering on something that will almost inevitably lead to common carrier status, which will destroy the little censor-sphere they love so much.
