No. It really is.
This followed by 7 paragraphs explaining to me why it's so simple, including several strawmans aka arguments of things I never even said.
A white supremacist neo-nazi murdered an innocent woman and attempted to murder several others by driving a car into a crowd. It's pretty easy to unequivocally denounce a terrorist murderer without pointing fingers at the victims at all.
It wasn't the victims' fault they got hit by a damned car by an a$$! I'm not saying that!
Bringing up ANTIFA or any other nonsense is meant to equivocate and justify his actions. Absolutely nothing else.
Uhh no, it's meant to say it wasn't just the neo-nazis who started violence and to make the point that fighting neo-nazis with their own tactics is the wrong way to do this. I've said several times now THE WHITE SUPREMACISTS AND ANTIFA ARE NOT MORALLY EQUIVALENT And stop telling ME the intentions of what I'M saying, multiple people in here making boogey-mens up in their own minds and then accusing me of being this imaginary enemy aka strawman.
It is literally used to diminish the gravity of what had happened. It also changes the conversation from denouncing an appalling murder to whining about liberals.
It may be by Trump, but not I. I'm not whining about liberals. My political views mostly lean liberal. I'm whining about a$$hats who commit violence. I don't give a crap what side you're on, if you started violence during those protests you're an a$$. If you support mob violence whether on left or right, you're an a$$. White supremecists who started violence are bigger a$$es, that doesn't make the leftwing a$$ses not a$$ses.
On the left, you had professors, students, citizens, denouncing hate-mongering and white supremacy. That's what the vast majority of that crowd was. Were there radicals there. Absolutely. ANTIFA is a radical group, organized to fight white supremacy. But that was not the entire crowd on the other side. Not even close.
I'm aware of that and never said otherwise, yet another strawman.
In short, there is a time and a place to denounce the radicalism of ANTIFA. That absolutely has it's place and would be necessary if they drove a car into a crowd of white supremacists. Doing it when you're on national television supposedly consoling the nation after a white supremacist tried to murder a couple dozen people.....there's nothing else to call that than **** stupid. That's seriously not the time for mental **** about tallying up the sins of both sides to see which is worse.
What Trump did and did not say was wrong, he handled that very poorly, because he's a damned racist, so I agree with you there for sure. I'm not the POTUS though and I don't speak for America, so I can say whatever I want. And I say anyone who started violence there is an a$$. Here I'll edit that so people don't misinterpret my intentions yet again: Anyone who started violence there is an a$$, and white supremacists who started violence are even bigger a$$es. Doesn't that go without saying???
Not only did you not denounce the ANTIFA violence (& btw there were more than ANTIFA there on the left creating violence, like the guy who attacked the organizer), you're on record here as supporting it as are others. IMO that's wrong. Racist-filled hate & rageful violence fought with justice-filled hate & rageful violence is still hate & rageful violence.
