This is America under President Manbaby. Congrats America, you're a fascist shithole now.

Dude, did you actually look at anything other than the title? Ya know that you're advertising for Trump or right leaning people when you say crazy shit like this, right?

Typical TYT, here's your stereotypical "insane racist right winger": https://www.bet.com/news/national/2018/07/13/woman-who-beat-91-year-old-mexican-man-with-a-cement-brick-charg.html 

Sadly. The link you posted also backs up some of The Young Turks claims like "Go back to your country!".

Facism is a pretty broad descriptor though, but this would certainly fall into that category... Although to be fair is not something that is limited to the far-right either. (Although that is where it is most commonly found in the left-right political spectrum.)

In short. I believe she should be charged with a hate crime, there should be zero tolerance for such toxicity.

It doesn't really matter if the woman involved is an avid Trump supporter. That isn't really what the cause for concern is surrounding the demonization of immigrants and Hispanics. The issue is that you are creating fear and hatred within the people who continually hear this rhetoric: that these people are criminals, that they are destroying this country, that they don't belong.

It isn't only the ones who stand at Trump rallies who fall victim to this, it is often those who aren't actively involved in politics, who simply hear this rhetoric and don't have that political frame of reference to delve into the truth behind it.

Of course that isn't to say that we have any information that this is certainly due to any Trump effect, however, would it really be so farfetched? Are we really so naive to believe that the most powerful man in the country constantly telling the people how so many of society's ills are caused by immigrants and hispanics, would have no effect over the actions of the populace? The effect of these words is breeding fear and hatred, two very strong catalysts for violence.

I find it somewhat disheartening that, after an action like this, instead of falling to questioning the effect of such rhetoric that the attacker was echoing, we are instead pointing at the race of the attacker and trying to brush it off. That isn't simply pulling the carpet over our own eyes, it is blinding ourselves with the same prejudice we are denying...



I posted a link of that vid to Crowder. He's gonna love this if he doesn't already know about it.

I'm not sure what the argument is here. "She can't be racist because she was black"? Isn't that the exact position that right leaning individuals have been mocking for years?

I'm assuming you didn't watch the video.

1. The person being right winger is conjecture. They're also pushing the narrative racist incidents are just right wing related.

2. They didn't mention the culprit was black because it didn't fit the narrative. Trump only had like 2% of black female votes. The man in the video even says, "they hate people that don't look like them." I'm wondering if he even knew it was a black person.

3. Racism existed before Trump. Every incident shouldn't be attributed to Trump unless you have an agenda like TYT.

See my other post from page 2.

And maybe they just didn't mention the culprit was black because it doesn't matter (it also doesn't matter if she was a "right winger"). There is no reason to mention the race of the attacker in this story unless you are trying to use it as deflection.

Again, the guy said they hate people that don't look like them. Obviously that's a component of racism, its against mostly people that don't resemble themselves.

But when he spins the right wing narrative, he must think it was a white person because a black woman does not resemble the average extreme right winger. Hence, there is no mention of race but its obviously on his mind.

Yes, and black people can be racist too. TYT stating that this is racism is not necessarily incorrect unless you believe black people can't be racist, which brings us right back to my original post.

It seems like you are simply trying to attribute positions to TYT that they did not state anywhere in this video. This is pretty clear by the fact that you keep saying "he must think" (and variations of the phrase). You aren't a mind reader. You don't get the luxury of debating against people's thoughts, only their words.



91 years old and he took a brick beating? Man is still alive? Talk about tough. He looks younger than 91 too.

Hmm, a shame we could not get any of this recorded but I have to wonder what if this was a misunderstanding? What if the woman thought the man was trying to kidnap her child? I think most parents would lash out violently too.

How unfortunate.

Anyways, TYT giving me more reason not to watch their content.
