(commenting on story “Minneapolis Burning: Violence, Riots Break out in City Following the Killing of George Floyd by Police”):

Chuck Anziulewicz:
While I'm sure most of the people who voted for Trump in 2016 do not think of themselves as racist (and I'm trying to be generous about that), the fact remains that ALL of the white supremacist groups, white nationalists, militia groups, "Proud Boys" and such were 100% solidly behind Trump. THOSE were the "deplorables" Hillary spoke of. And with Trump's election, they feel validated and empowered. There's no getting around this. And when things happen like what happened to George Floyd, I'm tempted to think that those same deplorables have infiltrated police forces all over America in an effort to foment a race war. This is just ONE of the reasons I'm voting against Donald Trump.

WestWins:
Odd comment. What does Racism have to do with this story? And what is a White Supremacist exactly? Is that different from a White Nationalist?
Confusing.
Are the Chinese in China Supremacists?

Piltdown911:
Divide, divide, divide. Race, politics, social standing, etc.

WestWins:
True.......but only in White Nations. Or I should say "formerly" White Nations. Asia for the Asians, Africa for the Africans..."Western Civilization" open to everyone!
Watch.......someone will call me "racist" for pointing out the fact that Western Civilization was predominatly white. Europeans are on the chopping block of humanity.

The police officer knelt on a black man's neck till he died and you think it wasn't due to racism? Fuck off.

@Piltdown:

That has been the main conservative tactic ever since Shays’ rebellion. Divide, divide, divide. Then when anyone tries to talk about race they accuse us of being the ones who are divisive (just like you’re doing here!)

Charlottesville.

You were saying, o Salt-rightists & Nazis…?!

White supremacism is believing that this false equivalence with false premises is actually usable as an argument. You can potentially be a ‘white nationalist’ without any kind of racism involved. In that case you simply happen to be white and a nationalist. You can be black and a nationalist too, seeing as ‘black and white’ are arbitrary, noninformative attributes unless racism is involved. Which is the case with white supremacists, since they believe that ‘whites’ are the superior race. There, it’s that easy. I also hate the implication you give with that last sentence: America is certainly NOT a ‘white’ ethnostate. And you have no idea about the difficult history of chinese ethnicities (and there is some ‘chinese’ supremacy going on as well by the way, China has subtle but very strong racist undercurrents, especially against ’black’ people). So keep your uninformed and consciously misleading ‘arguments’ to yourself.

And I also agree with the other posters, I hate that many right-wingers employ the tactic of social division, racism, impeding free speech etc. only to then whine about the left allegedly doing the same. They are masters of psychological projection.

No, I’ll call you a racist because your anti-Semitism is obvious to anyone who looks at your posts for a few minutes.

I’m surprised the Christians on that site don’t call this guy out more often. Almost never.

@Jocasta #41466

Yeah, sometimes I wonder how many of them are on his side…

Let me join the ones pointing out the idiocy and hypocrisy of claiming that progressives are “divisive”. Really, the ideology of the Republican party is little (at best) more thab a transparently disguised catalogue of excuses to other, ostracise and look down upon a large variety of demographics.

@ChrisBP747 #41458
Actually, “white nationalist” does not simply mean a nationalist who is white, but specifically refers to the ideology of white nationalism, which proclaims that [COUNTRY] is/should be a white ethnostate. In other words, white supremacist vs white nationalist is a distinction without difference and he is definitively a racist.

@Bastethotep #41472

Yes, but this guy never mentions “nation”. Only skin color, so yes, complete racist.
He’s one of those guys who tries to legitimize White Pride rallies.

For an uncountable number of times physical force insanely in excess was applied to a black man causing his death. For an uncountable number of times the black community demanded answers, fair process, and their rights as citizens to be put into practice rather than thrown back in their faces as being a “gift” that invalidates complaint. For an uncountable number of times the response has been a very emphatic “we don’t answer to you” from everyone in authority who for an uncountable number of times chose reminding everyone who is in charge over the rule of law resulting in a riot. For an uncountable number of times what little accountability there has been on the part of police has only happened as a result of extreme public pressure and even then has been minimized and very clearly meant as patronizing placation in the vein of “here have this cookie if it’ll shut you up” and not as a recognition of wrongdoing. And for an uncountable number of times white supremacists spin this not as the indicator of a continuing pattern of bias and selective application of rights that simple pattern recognition would have clued a child into by now but as an indication that they are right to continue treating black people like dangerous animals encouraging the very senseless aggression that leads to this cycle repeating ad infinitum.

Nevermind that white supremacists have no actual respect for police or government and form numerous armed militias dreaming of the day they exchange gunfire with them in the streets. Nevermind that white people more frequently riot over sporting events than black people do the routine violation of their rights and more recently stormed government buildings and restaurants armed to the teeth without much police reaction to protest restrictions meant to contain the coronavirus that’s killed more than 100,000 Americans. Nevermind the sheer blinding hypocrisy of the consistent difference in treatment white offenders get even when violent and carrying rocket launchers in sharp contrast to how many “maybes” can get a not-visibly-armed black man shot twenty times within sixty seconds of a police encounter… all of this is supposedly an indicator of the natural disposition of black people as a race and not a reaction to mistreatment.

And now with COVID-19 raging across the planet the American government has the perfect excuse to forcibly disperse any and all protests because such gatherings are a legitimate health hazard even if peaceful. And a virulent racist so openly two faced in all things it’s almost impossible to be shocked anymore is the one calling the shots right now so despite insisting every other second the virus is nothing to worry about and everything should open up for business right away you just know he’ll use the excuse to go even heavier handed than usual.

And Trump has indeed threatened to deploy the military to use deadly force against protesters. And the fucking Nazis rejoice.
