First, look at what I said. I never said anyone "said that".
I said that's clearly what some people here seem to think.
And also, wtf is it with people and freaking the forget out unless I quote everything word for word.
If you mean something other than what you say, explain it. Don't just go "LMFAO nice misrepresentation" without providing examples.
I mean most of you are in here trying to play interference for beating a man (potentially) to death
Nonnel basically - no, he said it was fine, because Andy's a fascist milking victim points... somehow
Just because he's alive means it's all chill, right? I mean, brain bleeding never killed anyone? A little crowbar to the head is A-OK as long as he's home for dinner? Literally anything that isn't explicit condemnation of this violence is you trying to justify it. It's that simple.
Oh he (didn't) dox someone, oh he hangs around (supposed) fascists, oh he's (somehow) a national socialist, so it's okay to brutalize him in the street. Eat a loving richard, dumb loving handicap, I'm so tired of you idiots trying to justify street violence because it gets your impotent roosters hard enough for a quick procrastination sesh. forgetin' ell
I'm gonna say it one time and one time only
I do not condone violence enacted on anyone regardless of their political opinion. Andy Ngo should not have been punched or cement milkshaked(if there was cement in them). I think situations like this make the left look bad because it feeds into the conservative narrative that you guys are the most oppressed group and helps you guys play the victim card all the time.
HOWEVER:
You cannot force me to feel bad for this person, according to the things he has done and the people he has hung out with he knew what he would be getting into. His entire shtick is to cover antifa and their history of violence and being entirely naive to what this entails by putting himself into this situation is bullstuff. I think hes a bad person, I do not like him or any of his work because I think he naively promotes a cause that is inherently violent. Not to mention the fact that he tries to discredit victims of hate crimes on the regular. I do not feel bad for him, he had it coming, in every group there are bad apples and antifa is not exempt from that. Considering this guy covers them a lot, he should have known that he is placing himself in dangerous situations. BUT REMEMBER: I DO NOT CONDONE IT AND I DONT WANT PEOPLE TO BEAT HIM UP.Is this clear enough? Do you see the distinction? As far as I can see, some people in this thread hate the guy and think he had it coming, but you can also simultaneously say that you don't want violence, they are not mutually exclusive.
Like for example: WW2 was a totally justified action, people where morally justified to kill national socialists, and the national socialists had it coming for them. BUT, if by a loving miracle Riddler could've been stopped by peace it would've been 120302130120x better, I don't condone the violence that happened in WW2.
